Planning My Destination Wedding In Riviera Maya

Planning My Destination Wedding In Riviera Maya

Guess what? My fiancé and I decided to have a destination wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico. It's super exciting for us because we been dating for ten years and engaged one year. There's so much things to plan and do, which makes me more busier. I haven't been on my blog or Twitter a lot lately. I hope all my reader missed me. Anyways, I just want to show a sneak preview of a quick save the date postcard I just did. I hope you all like it.

Love the invites! I’m envious of your design and photography skills– you can do a lot of the work (menus, programs, invites, placecards) in-house and save money! Plus, you’ll get exactly the design you want. What a beautiful location for a wedding :)

That's exactly what my friend said. However I can't take photos for myself. (Even though I wish I wish I have a double that can take photo of myself in the wedding). hahah. I know I'll make it very design looking.. something my fiance won't understand haha
