Newbie - getting married April 2014 at Iberostar Grand Rose Hall

I know I keep seeing all different kinds of decor, different flowers, all kinds of stuff I could take with me...but then I think to myself....will people REALLY remember how much decor I had? what colors I chose? The resort I'm sure will do a FINE job making it look perfect! I can spend a little on decor for the AHR....and not worry so much about stuff to take down with me!

do you know how you are going to shipped your ideas there?

[Jennkn87]

I've read it's alot easier to pay the extra baggage fee to take them with you, as some resorts will not allow you to ship your stuff there. Plus it probably will end up costing you more than checking an extra bag. It could also get stuck at customs. I just get worried also they will put the bags on the wrong plane!! !

[scolen]

what do your FI think about that?

[Jennkn87]

He pretty much will go with whatever I am thinking for the most part. We haven't gotten too far into decor or anything like that. Still in the early stages of...which resort, whats the pricing, gotta talk to the parents--hopefully tomorrow or thursday! EEEK. Thats about as far as it's gotten thus far!! 

[scolen]

yeah start with a budget first so you kno how much you want to go towards the site

[Jennkn87]

I reallly just wanna stay on track with making it special and somewhat extravagant without spending an arm and a leg! I want to have enough left to make my AHR special too! Don't want to be in debt up to my eyeballs at the end of it all! It will be special and pretty no matter what!

i think that every bride thought in mind

Have you guys decided on a resort? I know you have been considering the Grand. Once you decide and book it will be a relief!
