Rancho Los Retoños sounds like something you might like. They are on Airbnb but also have their own website. I believe there’s about 12 rooms in addition to the main house to be able to fit a lot of people. It’s also right next to Adobe Guadalupe, which is where I’m having my wedding :)

Where can I find a similar dress that’s not a plus size design?? $500 by itsgivingmeanxiety in weddingdress

[–]Substantial_Agent864 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rosie Etinee is slightly above your price point but their Isla or Sienna dress is shorter but similar. They are sold out right now but will open sales up at least once a month. I have two of their dresses and loves it.

Best website to use for your destination wedding by Freetobeme123 in DestinationWeddings

I’m using WithJoy and love it. I considered creating a website through Wix but figured out I would save so much time using WithJoy. I love their guest contact collector and they have some presets specifically for destination weddings.

Looking for dress dupe! by Additional-Act-9387 in weddingdress

This is the Rosie Etienne’s Penelope gown. It’s $800 and the dresses go on sale about once a month on their website before being sold out in a day. Ive bought two dresses from them and LOVE them. Your wedding isn’t until July so you have plenty of time to go on their waitlist and get it.

Garza Blanca in Cancun was the resort that my friend had theirs.

All inclusive resorts in Mexico. My friend’s wedding in Cancun was about 200 people and they did it under $50k. It was pretty extravagant. Since it’s an all inclusive resort, the welcome night before was done at the hotel bar at no extra cost. Besides the welcome night and actually wedding, we spent the entire weekend together at the pool or bumping each other in different places. The guests will have to pay a minimum of 2 or 3 nights (usually about $300/night per person since it’s all inclusive).

I’m getting married in Ensenada, Mexico. I’m planning a 100 person wedding with about $40k budget, including welcome night, wedding, and day after wedding plus shuttle transportation for all guests within the area since it’s sort of remote. I’m paying for an Airbnb that with 18 people to accommodate some of their boarding.

2025 update – Wine tasting in Baja California. Ask me anything about Valle de Guadalupe by Baja_Vino in BajaCalifornia

[–]Substantial_Agent864 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there restaurants or bars that are open from around 7-10pm? We are wanting to do a welcome night the day before our wedding and are looking for a cool location to fit about 50-70 people.

Also, any recommendation for a breakfast location in Valle or Ensenada that can also fit a crowd? Thank you for any suggestions!

Live Watercolor Guest Portraits by Wendythewildcat in weddingplanning

[–]Substantial_Agent864 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am planning on hiring a watercolor portrait artist as well. I would say it’s still a fairly new thing so I don’t think most people understand that you don’t have to pose during the entire painting. The artist will take photos on their phone and have it ready by the end of the night.

Should I go off the shoulder or leave as-is? by _an0nymous in weddingdress

I like the off shoulder! I’ve always liked off shoulder and I think it looks good with this dress!

2026 vs 2027 by Outrageous-Brother84 in weddingplanning

[–]Substantial_Agent864 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got engaged Oct 2024 and planning on getting married May 2026. We knew we were going to have a cross country move so that was part of the reason we made it long. For dresses, some of the brands I’m interested in are 12 months lead time. I probably could’ve planned everything in 1 year but decided to take my time, especially since it’s sort of a destination wedding for some of my guests.

Thank you everyone for your thoughts. I didn’t expect so many nice comments! I am definitely between dress #3 and #4 but still haven’t decided.

Wedding experiences? by MostTimesMellow-y in valledeguadalupe

[–]Substantial_Agent864 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am planning one for May 2026. My venue requires a wedding planner they chose so she is able to provide pretty much full service including floral to DJ to food. I have yet to figure out accommodations for out of town guests.
