  1. ok. so we paid 300 bucks, don't know what that covers but the prices are flat so just ask for that one. yes, the music is like trance like tribal. so great. just sit back and enjoy. way better in my perspective than a trio or cigar roller. If I had someone elses budget I'd get all three but its a recession. Good Luck!! (check out the pics if you want a better idea, or better yet have faith and be surprised)
  2. We didn't reserve the entire restaurant. Since our party was over the recommended upstairs capacity we had the downstairs. I don't know why anyone would mind if people are admiring your party. We met this great couple from Sweden at the bar. Its a compliment personally. I am sure Mayte and her staff do an excellent job of directing all the guests upstairs so you'll never have anyone jumping on the dance floor but hopefully if they do it will just add to the funny wedding stories. You can see by my pictures there was almost no one at the beach and no crowd at the restaurant. A thousand times better than the hotel wedding, I felt so sorry for those girls. xoxo -m
  3. that's a great question. I personally was trying to contain my costs however if you have a bigger budget ask for both. There are a lot of advantages of having two photographers but if you can't spring for the extra cash having just one is great. Now everyone has digital cameras with great quality so I designed a shutterfly website and had everyone upload their images there. Almost everyone did so that gave us all an opportunity to pull and print. The professional pics plus everyone elses helped capture everything. My sister took video so I'm excited to see that one. Enjoy every second ladies don't fuss about the small things, once everyone is there the details won't matter. Best of luck! -M
  4. So. I can't say for sure how long it was, but at or over 10 min, well worth the money. Its a show and its totally different than anything you would have in the states. They played the music real loud and we sat in the chairs that were there from the ceremony, we just turned them around. Check out my pics if you want to see the show. www.drluv.shutterfly.com
  5. Also the ceremony was at 5 which kicked off a little later. I would move it up b/c once the sun starts peeking behind the restaurant your photo opts are limited. If I were having it later I would set it for 4 or 4:30 the latest
  6. The petals were actually a small carpet. It sounds weird but it totally looked cool, and real! It was included in the set up fee, we used very little real flowers except our bouquets etc. so the fee for beach set up was a flat 500. I was SO VERY IMPRESSED with the florest, steller job! Don't worry. I only wish I would have tipped. I didn't get the flowers personally and we ran out of cash by the end of the night. I guess I'll just try and send as much business that way. Here are my A's Florest Decor Menu, name cards and table set up Photographer / Pascal - Carribean Emotions Drinks (get all of them especially the Mojitos w Passion Fruit and Caprienas (?) Transportation (bus and drivers included) Staff
  7. we surprised our guests with the fire show and it was the best thing ever!! 10 stars!!!
  8. Hi, Big kudos to any bride that comes back to these sites. I needed like 3 weeks off, LOL. I uploaded my pictures on www.drLuv.shutterfly.com. Enjoy!
  9. yes yes yes. I loved it. I look at the pictures all the time.
  10. I had my wedding there on 9/10/11 and loved the place. Mayte is amazing, just relax and let her do her thing, she is better at it than I am. The DJ isn't so much a DJ but he's right for the price. The equipment is good just send a list of what you want played and when. The more specific the better. The drive, food, drinks are all yummy. 10 stars!!
  11. Hi I noticed that alot of brides were bring little gifts for their wedding guests. I wanted to bring a wedding week survival kit, aspirin, off, aloe Vera, emergenC (all travel size) in a sealed gift pouch. I was wondering if any brides knew of any issues I would encounter with customs? Any info would be great. BTW I am getting married at the Jellyfish but we will be staying at Dreams Palm Beach in Punta Cana. Thanks!! Maria
