El Dorado Royale (EDR) Brides - POST HERE!

Well my FI's passport came, so we can officially go to Mexico for the wedding. 

 

And Natalia finally, finally confirmed that Tucanes became available for our reception. Two big items checked off!! 

 

I noticed in a couple of the Lomas Miscellaneous gallery pics (http://www.weddingsbylomastravel.com/gallery/photo.php?category_gallery=Ceremonies) there are a few pics of fabric draped at the reception venues. Have any of you asked about pricing for that? I'm guessing it's exhorbant, given their pricing for a few yards of fabric for the gazebo... but dang, it's gorgeous!!!

Allie-

 

Were you talking about these types of drapes?? If so, they are $150 a piece, so $300 to make it look like the below drapes. We are doing the same draping on Gazebo 55 (same Gazebo in picture), but with different color blue sashes.

One cash saver for the sheers is that white sheers are only $100 not $150 per the lomas site. I'm hoping that's the case because we are doing orange and white sheers. Saves us $50 to use for something else.

I was interested in the cold fireworks but I was just told they aren't available anymore. Bummer! Has anyone else come across this?

They use MAC makeup at the salon.

My cousin got married at EDR and had Claudia Photo do her photography. She is an approved vendor so no fee and she did a great job! Claudia Photo has a lot of good reviews on this site if you wanted to take a look.

 

 

 

 

 

Claudia Photo isn't one of the vendors anymore We booked Citlalli Rico forever ago while they were still on the list but there was some sort of miscommunication and they tried to charge us an outside vendor fee, fortunately they took care of it. I got really upset for a minute there because we already paid the deposit and everything

A couple o months ago, Lomas quoted me for cold fireworks but my DJ includes them in his package! I can't decide if we should have them go off when we get announced at the reception or if we should have them go off during our first dance. Thoughts?

My idea was to have them go off when they introduce you at the reception... like when you walk in and they announce "Here is Mr and Mrs Wolfert" light them and that can be your entrance. That was my idea but I can't understand why they don't have them anymore. She quoted them to me a couple months ago but now is saying they don't do them anymore.

Maybe you could find a DJ that includes them? DJ Doremixx includes them in his packages.

I'm not sure if I really want to drape the gazebo at all honestly. I've got two orange parasols that I'll use on it, and aqua & orange paper lanterns too. 

 

here's what I was referring to: 

 

 

I  just love how that changes the roof and makes it more like a tent. this is still set up for a ceremony, but I'd love to know if they can do that to tucanes for a reception. and how much it'd cost... lol that combined with the lanterns would be gorgeous.
