  1. Hi there! I am also getting married at Now Jade in July! I was just curious when your wedding is? Maybe we will be down the same time!
  2. Hello Everyone! I am curious what everyone is doing about hair and makeup. I just booked MVP hair and Makeup. I am super excited however, I had to put a 445$ non-refundable deposit down and pay the rest of the Money a month before my wedding. However I am freaking out because I am hearing that there is a 350$ fee for outside vendors. I can not afford to pay over a thousand dollars on hair and makeup that it would end up costing to pay the outside vendor fee. I am already spending $800 plus on getting hair and makeup for just three people I can not afford anything more. I am also not about to lose 400$ of my hard earned money if I have to cancel my hair and makeup. Does anyone have any cheap options to get out of this outside vendor fee?! Please help as I am freaking out! Thank you. Heather
  3. I am getting married there July 28th, 2012! How has your planning been going? Where are you having your location for ceremony and reception? What have you chosen for DJ, photographer, hair/makeup. I think I am going to go with MVP hair and makeup. It seems a bit pricey but well worth it. The photography at the resort doesn't seem to be too bad, rather nice. I have not hear anything about the DJ yet. Any help you can provide would be great. Congratulations! We will have to meet up as July Brides for a drink!
  4. Hello, I am very interested in your services. I am a July 28th 2012 Now Jade bride. I am really skeptical about the resorts makeup/hair services. I would love to talk with you about pricing and see more of your work. My email is hmpinma@yahoo.com. Please contact me as soon as you can. Heather
  5. Leanne, Who was your photographer? You looked stunning on your day. Ours is July 28th 2012. Did you really like the MVP hair and makeup services? How much were the services if you don't mind me asking. As much info you can provide about each vendor would be appreciated. It is so hard planning a destination wedding!
  6. Has anyone heard anything of MVP hair and makeup? The site looks good as far as the galleries and the reviews have been very good??
  7. Thank you everyone for such helpful information. Mrs. Ups have you found that it is worth spending the $350 vendor fee to get the outside photographer? The hair and makeup artist that you got quotes from seem expensive? I was hoping to honestly only spend $200-$250 on hair? and the resort still charges $350 to get an outside hair and makeup artist?!! That is insane. I have not seen or hear anything about the hair and makeup at the resort. I am very particular about that. What are you thinking about flowers? Are the resorts flowers really expensive do you know? So, you are making your own invitations? I do not have the time for that and was wondering if you had come across any nice inexpensive one's in your travels? I feel like I am so far behind in getting my invitations out. My fiance' and I sent out a mass email to all of our family and friends about our date. July 28th 2012!! Who are you working with Pilar? I just have had a hard time getting in touch with her sometimes. It does become frustrating. KThun, if you do an outside florist is the resort going to set up the flowers? or does the florist. I know that I do not have the imagination skills to do that. I just do not want to pay an arm and leg for flowers if that is what the resort charges. I know that I want a lot of elegant pretty flowers too. YOu also mentioned that the photographer did not seem that great. Have you seen samples of their photography? I would love to see samples. How much is Del Sol or Luluna photography? Is it worth it to pay their price along with the $350 outside vendor fee? Also, you mentioned that they are replacing the DJ fee? Does that mean with the Divine package we are going to have to pay an additional fee for a DJ? Anymore help people can provide please do so!! I appreciate it more than you know! Heather
  8. Hello, Hello Everyone! I am getting married July 28th 2012 an Now Jade Riviera. I have found this site tremendously helpful but still have so many questions. Piliar the wedding planner is very nice but she is so slow to respond. I have some questions if anyone can help. Have people found that it is cheaper to hire an outside photographer, videographer, florist, DJ vs. the resort even with the additional 350$ additional charge for each outside vendor? If so... Does anyone have any recommendations? Has anyone gotten the Divine package do you know if you can mix and match your dinner menu? And the open bar are the drinks included since it is an all inclusive resort? Any other helpful information would be appreciated. I am sure that I will have many more questions. Thanks everyone!
  9. I think that it is wonderful that you are doing what you want. My fiance and I knew that we wanted a destination wedding. Our expenses for a destination are turning out to be more than a local wedding. However, we did not care. This is what we wanted and regardless of who attends we want it to be about us and no one else. So I think you should do the same. Getting married is about the union of two people. You and your fiance don't worry about anyone else! How has your experience been with sandals thus far. If you don't mind me asking how many people are you having? What package did you choose? What was your cost per night because I feel like it keeps going up. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you so much and congratulations!
  10. Hello! First of all congratulations of being a newlywed! I am just so curious to hear about your experience? My fiance and I are about to tonight book our wedding for next summer. I am just curious how your experience was? Were you happy with everything? Did you get one of the Martha Stewart Packages? I am just wondering because we have been engaged for three years and have been deciding through many venues and not just St. Lucia but many islands. We just want to make sure we are making the right decision. Let me know thank you so much. Again congratulations!

  12. I have been reading some terrible reviews for Sandals St. Lucia weddings. I am very concerned about booking my wedding there. Does anyone have their wedding planned there or has had a wedding there? Any help or suggestions would be wonderful!
  13. Hello, I am also talking with Janelle from Island Bliss weddings. Do you know how their fees work? What photographers do you recommend. I am just overwhelmed and feel like I am having a hard time trying to plan my wedding being so far away. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
