    GORGEOUS!!!

     

    Do you have a price list for Sara?

    I have 6 BMs too. Did she offer a discount since there were so many girls?

    We are hoping to cover the cost for my BMs, do you mind sharing how much it was for everyone total?

    Did she charge a travel fee?

     

    You look stunning!! Wow.

    I should also mention - she uses MAC products! My face is very sensitive and her make-up worked great on my skin - no break outs or anything! Also - she applied lashes for me and they LOOKED great and lasted the whole night!

    Thanks for posting these pics!  Look look gorgeous.

     

    I will have 4 bridesmaids and myself. How long would you recommend it might take for hair and makeup, based on your experience with Sara and her stylist(s?)?

     

    Thanks

    Isn't it so exciting planning a Mexico wedding!!! I'm pumped for Claudia!!

    It was a group rate our TA got through Signature so I'm not sure which part, hotel or resort, dropped in price (Sunquest was a bit higher). My TA hasn't mentioned running into high prices b/c of Easter...maybe because we're getting a group price?? She just found rates on a number of places then we chose Sandos, but other places were comparable. She's a local TA in my town.

    How did you find DJ Doremixx?

    Good luck with planning!

    I´m under strict instructions from FI not to even look at another wedding dress now, two is enough apparently. Fair point i suppose, but what about ttd? (just kidding!)
    I bought a Pronovias dress too!! Hebra I think it's called!
    I'm getting married on April 21st, 2011 in Playacar Mexico. The Barcelona design flare I thought was great for a Mexican Spanish wedding :)

    Here's a link of a real bride wearing the same dress

    I'm not sure what to do with my hair....I've got long, thick, straight dark hair?? Any advice?

    I've been reading the posts between the lot of you girls. I'm laughing aloud! I love it!

    Hello everyone!

    I'm an April 21, 2011 bride. We're getting married at Sandos Playacar Beach Resort in Mexico. I'm sooooo excited!! I find it so much more real now that we've booked.

    We've just got a great group rate of 1390 taxes in (April 18-25). We lucked out because two days before we officially booked, the price dropped from 1600 to 1390! We're booking with Signature, and they offer a one time price drop gaurantee. It probably won't drop again, but we're covered if it does :)

    We needed 10 people to book with us to get the group rate, but that was no prob...my family is huge!

    So excited!!!!

Then the itallian buffet. I opted out of the disco but found a great back up. We took a 5minute cab ride to Fusion. They have a fire show and salsa dancing on the beach every night. I bought one round of drinks and 3 orders of chips and salsa. for 20 people it was $85.00 everyone had a blast and it was so romantic and autentic.

    Maria did a fantastic job.....I used Claudia Rodriguez for pics and the video. They were amazing as well. Let me know if you have any questions
    Keilag, do you have any links to photos??!!
    I've also booked Claudia Rodriguez Photography - Citlalli is coming for me.
    Congrats again on the wedding!

You won't regret your decision to stay at Sandos. I do highly recommend upgrading to the Riviera Section. They upgraded my entire group free of charge because the resort was only about half full. It was awesome!

    Here are a few photos our photographer (Sascha Gluck) took at Sandos :

    By the way, Sascha was amazing! I highly recommend him. He is a member of this site.

    Best wishes!

    Hi MayBride,
    Beautiful photos!!!!
    I'm getting married next April 21 at Sandos and was wondering about sunset timing. Thanks for your post!
    I have loads more questions though. If you have any advice or recommendations I'd love to hear them!

    Did you do toasts in the wedding hut until 5 before doing your photos alone with the photographer?
    Did you have anything planned for guests while you had photos done?
    We're you able to go to the restaurant before 6:30 or was 6:30 good timing?

    How long did they let you stay in the restaurant? and did you do anything after supper??

    So many questions!!!

    Congrats on the wedding, you looked fantastic!!

    Congratulations!! Destination wedding planning is so exciting!

    You could definitely plan a spring wedding in Mexico. Lots of time!

    I'm booking this week at Sandos Playacar Beach resort for late April 2011. There's an amazing forum on this site about Sandos. It totally made me happy with my Sandos decision.

    Good luck with your planning.
