Hello Everyone! Information Packets And Party Favors

[MarMig]

Hello everyone! I am at the beginning stage of planning and I am already going crazy. lol

 

I am having a destination wedding at Catalonia, Riviera Maya, Mexico in May 2017. I am preparing an information packet for my guests and I have so far:

Announcement Letter

Travel checklist

U.S. Passport Application to renew and for first time applicants

I will be putting save the dates boarding pass

 

Do you think I need anything else?

 

Now as far as party favors, Has anyone shipped directly to the hotel? Or should I bring them with me in a luggage and pray that they don't get lost in transit 

 

Any suggestions/ideas would be great. 

 

Thank you.

@@MarMig wedding planning doesn't have to drive you crazy, with all the support you will receive on here. prep one task at a time

 

now to answer your question, you can also add "things to do in the riviera maya", are you planning on having a wedding website? I have also seen recently other brides they turn to create a facebook group with all information.

 

about favors. bring them with you , to make sure they arrive at your hotel. Shipping is not the issue, but the issue is customs in mexico.  To avoid surprises, I would ship them to Mexico.

 

Happy Planning!

Thank you! That is actually a great idea to add a things to do page.

And I am going to follow your advice, I will bring the party favors with us.

 

Thanks again
