Beth was my photographer for our Wedding and Nate was also a second photographer at our wedding. They were both fantastic and I could not have asked for a more amazing photographer. Our photos were absolutely beautiful, she captured every moment. Now Beth and Elizabeth lloyed are the same person FYI. If you choose to go with them you will not be dissapointed. Email me at [email protected] and I can send you some pro pics they took. They do fantastic work and they are both also amazing people to work with.

Lindsay Hi Lindsay, They were from the designer Watters Watters | A Design Driven Company Specializing In Innovative Fashions For Brides, Bridesmaids, Young Mothers Of The Bride And Groom, Junior Bridesmaids And Flower Girls They were style number 130 i believe or 135?? They had chiffon fabric that was to be drapped at the back but we cut it off. I loved those dresses, and they suited each of my girls body types... they turned out great,and comfortable too. Watters has great dresses....

Just throwing this out there... Do you think they were legally married or they just had the spiritual ceremony. Don't forget to become legally married in Mexico you have to be in Mexico 3 or 5 business days prior, you have to have a blood test and all your legal documents need to be translated into spanish.... My guess is they had a ceremony on the beach... but legally man and wife I don't think so !!

I would love to do something similar! THANKS! Hi There Maracas are a great choice, our guests loved them. I actually got them through LC. Kelley knows someone there that does them. They are 2 different sizes small and large. Ours were the large, and yes they were engraved. We even got to choose what colours we wanted them.. they turned out perfect... and if i recall they were a great price too !!

Hi Everyone, I am a little late in posting pics. Here is a link to pictures from friends and family. Maeghan & Jocelyn - wedding website by mywedding.com Once your there click photo galleries Hopefully I will have pro pics to share within the next few weeks. I will also have a review ready very soon. las Caletas was an amazing experience, and no picture no matter how extraordinary can show how beautiful and magical Las Caletas truly is..it's unbelievable.....enjoy!!

I had a baby May 15th and have terrible stretch marks on my lower stomach, i have used bio-oil twice a day for 2months and so far see no results :-(

I have just found myself in a similar situation, where i had to ask one of my BM's to step down. She was creating so many issues and extra stress, and i could only imagine how much more stress she would have caused if i didnt ask her to step down. She was a total drama queen about it and after i told her she was no longer in the wedding she went and ordered her BM dress anyways and figured since she ordered the dress she had to be in the wedding...WRONG!! at the end of the day, if your BM is a true friend she will understand, and be more than happy to do whatever you need to make your wedding day amazing and stress free

Hi Ladies - i have chosen Fuscia and orange for my wedding colours - the BM's are all in Fuscia and i want my flowers to be a mixture of the 2 colours. I have found a few bouquets that can work but i am having a hard time finding bouquets for myself that incorporate the 2 colours. I want a white bouquet with just a few flowers of fuscia and orange to tie it all in - has anyone come across or seen anything like this? I will upload the BM's buquet ideas - let me know what you think

Hi Ladies - does anyone know when the sunsets in las caletas end of october? also what time does the boat pick up guests at the marina?

Welcome and Congrats - You should also check out Las Caletas just a short boat ride away from puerta vallarta- they have beautiful weddings there

absolutely stunning

Ahhh i am getting married October 28 at Las Caletas...it is coming so quick. I am also 8.5 months pregnant due may 16th. We found out we were pregnant a couple months after we were engaged...ooopps. So in order to fit into my dress i have 4/5 months to lose baby weight. Any new moms have any tips

I was really surprised (and honored) when I first clicked on her blog, and saw a picture of me and FI staring right back at me! We’re the weirdo couple jumping in mid-air and kicking each other in front of the fountain. It was really exciting… my little 15-minutes (or more like 2-seconds) of fame… haha. Anyway, I think there are a few brides here who will be using Beth in the upcoming months, so hopefully we’ll see you all on her blog! Wow thanks for the info - I really like Elizabeth Lloyd's work - but has anyone else found it hard to receive a response from her? I have emailed her 3 times in the past 2 weeks or so, and received no response. I really need to book a photographer soon, so i might just have to look somewhere else....which i really don't want to do.

I was also very discouraged and concerned that I would not have the quality of pictures that was important to me. However, I believe many of the local photographers will work with your budget -- it never hurts to ask, as the worst that will come of it may be a polite "no." I'm not saying to lowball them just for the sake of trying (your offer will have to be somewhat comparable to their service fees) but if you truly have budget constraints some are willing to at least work with you and offer flexibility in the number of hours covered, # of pics on a cd, & # of prints for the amount you have budgeted. That's why many of them say to contact them for an exact quote. Here's my story: My FI and I are on a fairly tight wedding budget (we think in comparison to what others are spending on their weddings) and while I consider pictures very important -- he doesn't really (not to mention he hates having his picture taken). We finally agreed on an amount for a photographer which did not provide enough to fly in a photographer so I knew it had to be a local one. I explained my situation to my wedding planner and she then relayed this to the photographers we were interested in. They all came back with packages that were within our price range and what we felt were reasonable for the amount we had budgeted. Even though we had our wedding planner contacting the photographers for us, she did so because I explained our situation and I think the photographers still would have worked with us on pricing if I had contacted them directly. Bottom line I think I got a great local photographer with a package and price my FI and I could live with. IT NEVER HURTS TO ASK - ESPECIALLY NICELY AND WITH SINCERITY! Despite what my FI thinks, these pictures will be some of the only tangible things we have left to remember our very special day by and I think this is how most brides (& some grooms) feel. So don't settle for a photographer you're not that impressed with just because his/her price fits your budget. Contact the photographers you're interested in that may be a little more than your budget and see if they will work with you. Good luck! Thanks for the info......which photographer did you choose? i am in the same situation...do you have a website i can check out.....thanks
