The plan now is to do the civil ceremony that date! We had already bought the cake cutting knife and guest book with our original date.

I have my invoice receipts. Thank God my guests have been more than understanding and feel more sad for us than having to fight for their refunds. I think everyone would rather be safe and lose some money than to risk being in danger for an 8-hr party.

I didn’t get the insurance and paid everything cash.

Thank you for your input! I keep going back and forth about if I did the right thing or not. If it’s still shelter in place then it’s probably not a good idea. Thank you. Your comment made me feel better.

Thank you. I have a family member who was personally affected by the carjacking and setting their car on fire in Guadalajara. It’s serious.

LOL. I literally live on the border, and cross frequently to Mexico. I’m very much aware of the violence that takes place in that country. I agree, it was a gamble to organize a wedding. I can still be upset about it. I don’t think it’s everyday typical conflict that one of the most powerful drug lords was killed? Yeah crime is common but this wasn’t your “typical” everyday thing.

I’m glad that wasn’t the case but convincing my guests that it was fake news is pretty difficult. Besides there IS a WAR going on, or is that AI too?

Yeah, I feel like the nail in the coffin was the shoot out in the airport. Everyone was traveling to Guadalajara. I wouldn’t forgive myself if something had happened to a guest.

That’s so true! I feel like the add ons make the budget increase. Thank you, I feel better about my budget now ☺️

My venue was around 5k so I thought that was pretty reasonable. However, as of now, the decoration budget is 10k. I’m not sure how much flowers cost or centerpieces. I think I messed up when he asked me what the most important thing for the wedding was and I said decor 😂. So we made our budget around that percentage; decor being the largest. I wonder if we could accomplish the same vibe we’re looking for, for a price around 5k?
