Married in a month!

[brittRose]

Hey everyone, Sept. 26th is a little more than a month until my wedding day the The Royal Playa del Carmen. Im so excited but everything is getting overwhelming all over again We are trying to make arrangements with our coordinator and i dont really know what avenue to go with. So I'm shouting out to my bdw friends out here for some help. First, My FI and i are on a budget so, does it sound terrible to do a semi private reception? We are all very picky eaters as well, i know that sounds terrible) but that way people can choose what they want. The downfall, dinner isnt until 6 and our wedding is at 2. any suggestions on what to tell people? Also, we are skipping out on the cocktail hour as some of our guests are recovering alcoholics.. I'm so glad that these people are putting them selves under the pressure to come to the wedding regardless of the booze.We are having a huge at home reception so in my head surpassing these things is okay but i want opinions. As far a decoration goes, I have noticed a lot of people have brought some of their own. Should I? Im just a stressed out mess right now. Need everyones thoughts and opinions.. Thank you so much!!!

I'm a newbie here, but I think that it would be cheaper to at least bring some of your own decorations... You didn't say how many people have booked so far.. How many people do you think will be in attendance? I think the amount of people you have matters a lot. Are you going to do OOT bags? This forum offers so much help.. So much help.. just browse thought the forums to find things. you can start out with the forum that specifically discusses your resort. Wish I could help more hun.. Keep us posted..
