  1. Hi Cabara, I brought my own my own music on a cd. I wrote on the face of the cd Walk down aisle- marry me-train Walk back up aisle- somewhere over the rainbow- Israel kamawawi'ole (I'm not sure the exact spelling) The dj at our reception gave us a sheet to fill out for entrance, 1st dance, type of music we want played, what we didn't want played, end of night song...etc Hope this helps! Congratulations!!

Does anyone know the surface from the light post to the gazebo entrance. It looks like brick but I want to be sure before I click the "order" button for my aisle runner! Thank you! The surface is smoothe from the light post to the gazebo. The only part that is tricky to walk on is from where they drop you off to the light post. Is is large flat rocks with space between. People watch you walk up this so make sure you have your bridesmaids test it out with their shoes. I had my girls wear tall wedges and there may be only one picture of one of them looking up because they were afraid of falling. I at least had my dad to hold on to. As for the are for your runner it is a smooth area
  3. I did have a HUGE problem with my dress being steamed by them. #1 it came back while my fiance was in the room and I was showering and they only had a clear plastic bag over it, they hung it up on the bed. When I came out of the shower I was so upset because he was sitting right there. He did turn his back on the hanging dress because he knew I'd be upset if he seen it! #2 on the day of my wedding I took the plastic off the dress to find black smudges on the bottom and bodice of the dress, I left them as I didnt want to ruin my dress with a tide pen. I would NOT recommend having them steam your dress if you can get away with it!
  4. There were a few things I notice now that I didnt at the time but I asked for all the chairs to have blue sashes and I see that they do not. Also, I had asked for our reception chairs to be the black ones at the El Bohio but they used the white ones. Small things that didnt matter at the time but if you are particular make sure to let them know.
  5. Jenn963 and Jessica1005: Thank you. This is only some of the 1300 pictures I have. Yes, all of the decorations (chair covers, sashes, drapes and flowers) were included in the package. The $690 silver package for 50 ppl. The only extra expense we had was the DJ at $550 and the outside visitor day and night pass fee of $120 for our photographer from Ottawa. Her name is Eva Hadhazy and she is AMAZING!!!! Very good at what she does! Our ceremony was 15-20 mins. It was absolutley perfect! As I said by the pictures, I brought the confetti hearts, the floating candle, rocks (the resort provided the vase for floating candle and rocks at no charge) and the picture frame with saying, As well as the thank you cards for our guests on the tables with the clothes pin hanger. I brought my own cake topper as well that I made. I would recommend bringing something for the tables or renting from them otherwise it is only the candles you see in the pictures. My husband did not need a carry on so we used his allowance for a carry on to pack all of our wedding decorations and my shoes, umbrella, etc...
  6. Gazebo view from the beach The aisle to the gazebo Carolina did an amazing job at our symbolic ceremony Alcohol was served to everyone while they waited for the bridal party to arrive and a champagne toast after the ceremony Flowers brought from the signing table at the ceremony head table I brought a picture frame with a saying for those to be remembered, I brought the floating candle and the blue glass beads. They lent me the bowl to put it in. They brought this table from the ceremony site and set it up at the reception site. Table decorations with candles ,I brought the confetti i brought the heart confetti and the thankyou sayings The train brought people to and from the reception Chocolate and vanilla cake. They put the shells and ribbon on at no extra cost. I made the cake topper El Bohio Buffett Restaurant El Bohio at night with the DJ Our starter cesar salad, too bad it had anchovies on top Pork Medallions were a HIT!! Fruit Salad for dessert with our menu The DJ was amazing! The DJ handed out balloons and glow in the dark hats to everyone. They had a light system and everything. I would recommend the $550 package with DJ mania Hope these picts help out the planners out there!
