FYI, I merged an older thread that was started on this same topic. Make sure to read the old threads, they are full of info

There are a few threads re: night life in PV, but just my suggestion, try Mandala Mandala. We went twice the week prior to our July wedding and had a great time. Its located in the Malecon and has open walls.

I used this site to make my pocket folds. If you use the back of a butter knife to crease the folds, it makes it much easier but it is tedious work.

That sucks! We got married on the same day in PV and dealt with the same tropical storm so I can say that I really did feel your pain. I am shocked that your WC did not prepare and provide the correct tent! My WC pushed and pushed and thank god we finally gave in and listened. She also recommended that we do no rent lounge furniture b/c of the likelihood it would rain. I am so sorry, but I hope you can move on and focus on the positive, I bet you still had an amazing time! If you ever need to vent, pm me! I could use a venting partner (damn rain!). Also, where are the pics!!!!

Rachel, are you referring to the wedding day? If so no. The Mayan does not require that you nor your guests stay at the resort for your wedding. Most of our guests stayed next door at Melia, we did as well.

We had a tequila toast at our wedding too. It was fun

Gorgeous! from the flowers, the set up, your "barbie" dress!!!! AMAZING!! Congrats!

Congrats Mishka! She is adorable!

I suggest sending out STD's asap. Luckily you've already spread the word and you have time on your hands, most guest want to have time to save money for a DW. I think she is being selfish and its her fault for waiting so long to decide.

I didn't get them b/c of budget (quoted $30 each) but I thought they looked very nice in pictures. I also think you need to look at the set up, do you need extra lighting? We paid for extra lighting so we felt we did not need the underlight. However it you are having your reception in an area which is dark, it may be a good idea to get the lighting.

How frustrating Tara! I really had higher expectations for Dreams PV. But the more and more I read, I realized that its not really a resort I want to visit.

These were our final centerpieces. I loved them! My WC arranged them all.

Hi Ladies,

I was able to four of five parts of the raw footage we got by Luis. I was very, very pleasantly surprised. I decided last minute that I wanted a video and our amazing WC Priscilla, booked Luis a week prior to arriving in PV. We paid about $650 for about 6 hours of coverage, I believe.

The video is very long, each about 1/2 hour increments.

UPDATED TO INCLUDE REVIEW:

I don't recall speaking with Luis at all, I did see him around obviously, however I was so pleased with the video. Luis was supposed to meet us at the airport before we left, however our flight was canceled and we ended up leaving earlier then planned so he mailed the dvd's and raw tapes here.

I was really happy with the quality of the video. The edited dvd was really nice and included music, I had no idea he was editing the video at all. We honestly picked the cheapest package. The only negative was that all three copies of the edited dvds were scratched. We can watch them on a cheap dvd but I could not rip the video to make copies. We contacted Pris and Luis, but DH never f/u so we never got a good copy. Oh well.

 

Someone made a striking point, saying that chickens now have more rights than gay Californians (you know we passed that animal rights measure). It's ludicrous.

I was actually discussing this with my colleague. Last night, Prop 2 (animal rights) was overwhelmingly winning, while those who voted for Prop 8 and Prop 4 (parental consent for a minors abortion) were head to head. Thankfully, Prop 4 lost, but it makes me very sad that Prop 8 passed. I don't understand. Let's limit others rights, but lets make sure the chickens don't live in cages!

I would love to share! These were my inspiration bouquets, I ended up asking for option C. The pic below was my actual bouquet. I loved it however I wish it had the real flower stem instead of the plastic handle. Oh well, it was still better (and bigger) than what I expected.

I think you need to make a list of your top three priorities. We knew right away we wanted to get married in PV because of its affordability for our guests. Most of our guests live in L.A. so flights are cheaper than to RM or the Caribbean. Over all, its cheaper that Cabo and we knew most of our guests on my side would plan a side trip to my family's home town in Mexico. I chose pv for its convenience. Although I didn't get the amazing ruins in the RM or the amazing water/beaches in the Caribbean we knew it was the best choice for our guests.

and here is "Hansel" (Zoolander), He's so hot! LOL. FYI for those who don't know, DH's name is Hanssel too.

I had a hard time matching my e-ring with a band, so I went with a simple white gold eternity band.
