Your pictures are beautiful. I love all the flowers.

We were married their about a year ago, and we had a problem with the wine. They opened many bottles that nobody drank and we had to pay for them. Just double check with them. We paid on consumption and it wasn't too bad. I wish I would have known about the water, we negotiated and brought our own water from Costco. Good luck! They do a fabulous job.

Welcome. I also had my wedding at the Hilton 7/7/07. They did a fabulous job. Enjoy your planning.

I had my wedding there on 7/7/07 and I just wanted to give the heads up to watch the bar. We did the pay per drink and they opened wine bottles all around at dinner without our request so there was a huge charge for the wine that most people did not drink. I wouldn't worry too much about the food cost, it's fabulous.

David Flores was great at our wedding. He makes you a little nervous when he says he does not want a deposit and he just schedules you. I just emailed him a lot and he always responded that he still had me listed.

Make sure you have everything for your dress. I managed to forget a slip and my dress was see through. With quick thinking a slip was made for me.......

I have 3 boys and my husband has 2 girls. The girls walked down with their dad and then we let them be flower girls dropping rose petals down the isle. My younger son was the ring bearer and my two older sons walked me down the isle. We incorporated the sand ceremony which they all loved, because I let them pick out what color sand they wanted. My husband wrote the vows to have some of the ceremony be for just the two of us and then some stating becoming a family. Since we are such a big group (7 total) we just had us as our wedding party. They also helped pick songs for the reception, but mostly we took care of the rest. They all handled it really well.

We liked the Hilton cake also. When we did the site visit they introduced us to the pastery chef, but when we inquired about it later they said it was Jennifer Hatton who does the cakes. Our's was ok. Just make sure it's baked the same day as your wedding and not in advance. It will defiantly taste different it they make it ahead and refriderate it.

Congratulations! The Hilton is fantastic!! We loved it. I agree with Kashmira above, the Sun Fun Hut is private, we had our cocktail party there and then moved onto the Dolphin Terrace, which was also very private. Most of our guests didn't even know that side of the hotel existed until the wedding. Have fun planning!

I've been to Cabo twice during Thanksgiving and had great weather both times. It's also nice not being very crowded.

No, but totally our fault. We were home for about a week and then went to Kauai for our honeymoon. We didn't send him our songs until after we got back, so we delayed him. Hopefully in a couple of weeks.

We used 4 bamboo posts with the white sheet across from the Flower Cart and it was only $300.

Whoops! Forgot to mention, that I also did everything in email w/Emeline and brought those emails along just in case. We had no issues, so it was fine. Like with all of the vendors, I would just make sure you have everything in writing.

We used the orange ties as well. There is no charge. Emeline can give you a list of colors and she sent me pictures, so we could decide on colors. We also used the Flower Cart, but we had them take care of setting up the centerpieces. They were pretty resonable. I don't have pics yet. sorry.

I just had my wedding at the Hilton. We had 40 guests and Emeline worked out fine. We hired all of the vendors ourselves and from what I can tell from this forum, we did fine negotiating great prices. We hired a DJ, Guitarist, photographer/video and flowers. As long as you give Emeline a detailed list she makes sure everything comes together. I would save the money if I were you.
