  1. Stacysorenson00- Here were our meal options: Beef Tenderloin wrapped in bacon with balsamic vinegar and red wine sauce, Accompanied by mashed potatoes and vegetables Chicken breast stuffed with spinach and lobster, Accompanied by grilled vegetables and bell peppers We did two options because we had 70 people and wanted them to have a choice. I got the beef, and husband got the chicken, so I tasted both. They were both freaking delicious. If I had to pick just one, I would go with the chicken. However, the mashed potatoes were fantastic! Corina- I used a private photographer named Octavio Montes. He was significantly less expensive than the in-house photographer, and did a FANTASTIC job! We had a lot of pics to take in a short amount of time and he totally let me lead. He was very creative, spoke good English, and easy to work with!! Please fel free to PM me with specific questions too. I LOVED everything about my wedding thanks to good planning and this AWESOME resort!!!!
  2. Octavio is FANTASTIC!! We were married January 28, 2012 (Almost a year ago, I can't believe it!) and he was our photographer. Octavio was on time, coming with two assistants. They took phenomenal getting ready pics, and then set up a GREAT first look scene. He was really able to capture the scenery/ocean in the background of our pictures. He broadcasted our wedding on a live stream so that friends and family back at home could watch. What a wonderful service!! Octavio also helped to move things along at a good pace as we didn't have a lot of time for pictures. I had a list of the pictures I wanted and he was very attentive. Photos turned out phenomoneal, with great colors! He printed 50 of my choice and sent them to me, along with all pictures on a CD and a DVD of our weddign ceremony that he had added music to. The videography was even better than I expected it would be, the sound was great. We were very, very pleased with his service!
  3. Every woman who was invited to my shower was invited to my wedding. We sent out about 250 invites and had 66 at the wedding. I think it depends on what kind of wedding you are having and if you are having a reception back home.
  4. You will!!!! The quickest, and most unannoying way, is to ask questions! Start new topics! That way you learn from other brides, rather than just saying "Oh your dress/bouquet/oot bag looks great!' Lucy
