The packages that they offer only increase the amount of pictures you get, but never increase the hours. When I asked about more hours she told me it is $250 and hour. I am still not sure what we are doing about a photographer and the wedding is in 4 months! I think we will go with one of the resort photographers because I have family members that are professionals as well, I just didn't want them to miss out on the entire party taking pics, however they will take pictures of the two of us after the ceremony because those are the most important to me. The pictures from the wedding "Patrick & Kelly" are taken by Adventure Photos, the resorts in house photographer. I really like their pictures that I have seen on facebook of the families on the beach, I am just worried because taking family pictures and taking wedding pictures are two totally different things! I think I might just stay with Juan because he has a lot of experience with weddings, and a friend of mine just used him at Dreams Cancun and the pics were amazing. I know a lot of brides spend the majority of their budget on photos, but this has always worried me because the best photographers still might not do a great job. My sister had a very well known photographer (and very expensive photographer) shoot her wedding and the pictures turned out horrible!!! Even though all the pics on their website were amazing, hers just did not turn out well at all. I am worried about investing so much money into a photographer and they might turn out bad anyway!!! Thanks ebernard! I'm not sure what I'm going to do about a photographer either, just because you spend more money doesn't always guarantee a better/experience or better pictures like you said. Anyone booking with Sweet Caribbean or are they no longer one of the 'allowed' photographers?

I am upgrading all the dinner table linen to turquoise overlays but its expensive for the buffet, so I might just keep that table white and do turquoise flags. Also I am already sold on star lanterns for up above For a basic one tone ones they are as cheap as USD 5 Solid Color 5 Point Star and for the prettier multi-tone USD 8-10 Star Lights, Hanging Lanterns and Lamps from Divine Planet Out of curiosity would any of the ladies here be interested in these ones I am done for a couple of bucks each? Wow Boo those star lanterns are so nice - thanks for this how do you plan on hanging these though? and I'd love to have them after but my wedding is before yours Quote: Originally Posted by lilly129 I'm planning to use the banners - somehow - I just haven't figured out how...and then I saw this cake picture on the knot that I'm in love with - I'm attaching it! Annnnd I figured out how to add a ticker yay! Lily that cake is simple but very cute!!

Very nice pictures - Congratulations

Great Pictures your dress is absolutely stunning!

I'm sorry you had to experience such an awful photographer, what was he thinking taking the pictures from so far away? how could he think you'd be happy with those photographs. At least you had the chance to fix everything though with the help from othersand now your pictures look beautiful!
