Hi Ladies... I know the posts haven't come in a long time...but help would be awesome! So I'm a very new PR Bride, and have to admit I'm a little freaked out. We chose PR b/c my groom and I are both Ecuadorian and he has a lot of family/friends still in Ecuador so he wanted to find a place that was somewhat convenient for them to travel to and still had that spanish flare that we both want in a wedding. I also Love the Island feel and want to do a beach ceremony if possible, but got to admit that never having been there, and not really knowing how things really look/vs. the pictures on their website makes planning a little freaky. Our budget is slim so our first choice the El Conquistador is out. Any suggestions on other nice places. We were thinking of not doing San Juan, just to get away from the down town area...but not reconsidering. Some of the places we've looked at: Gran Melia Rio Grande, which seems to be our front runner right now... any reviews? La Concha, love the look of the hotel but they haven't gotten back to us on prices yet, any reviews? any other suggestions? suggestions as to coordinators, photographers, decorators, florists, and bakeries would be awesome too. I was trying to look through all the posts to find some... Thanks so much!!!
