Hi There...Am getting married April 2012 & considering doing the bonfire & s'mores thing...Can you tell me a bit about how it went? Was it a real bonfire? How long did they keep it going and what was the s'mores set up like (its pretty pricey). Thanks a bunch, SFGirl

Excellent questions!! I am getting married at AB in April 2012 & am also considering the catamaran cocktail cruise through Lomas. Has anyone done this excursion or have any tips?

This is an interesting idea. I am getting married at AB April 2012 and am not impressed with the 2 photographer options they have offered so far. Would love to hear how the experience with Samuel Luna goes and if you'd recommend him after the event. Thanks!

Hi, I am getting married in April 2012 @ AB & on the search for unique, fun events for the group! Would love to hear all about your Azul Beach!! Did you do a bonfire, salsa dance lessons or any other fun activities? I am also trying to figure out how to leverage their nightly performances and events already going on so we can direct the group to meet up at the tequila bar and then go see a show or something...but without really knowing what the style of those shows is in advance its hard to plan. Where were their nightly performances and did you check any out or enjoy them? Any activities on the AZ activity calendar that you or guests tried that you'd recommend? Also, where was your ceremony and reception? Any advise or ideas would be very welcomed!!

Hi, congrats on your big day being sooo close! We are getting married at Azul Beach in April 2012 and would love to hear the debrief on your experience and any advice you might have afterwards. We're also really interested in reggae and would love to know the name of the band you have and if you enjoyed it. Also, curious about which location you picked for your ceremony and how it all turns out. Best Wishes!!

Considering doing a morning ceremony for our April 2012 wedding at Azul Beach Resort followed by a lunch event to celebrate. We'd also like to do a private morning yoga session that day so in order to squeeze that and breakfast in along with a couple hours to get ready we are thinking about a 10:30am ceremony. Any suggestions, creative ideas, or advise on timing, planning, etc?

Getting married at Karisma's Azul Beach in April 2012. Any advice from brides that have worked with the Miami coordinators (I'm working with Elizabeth Riff)? I'm surprised the hotel offers very little interms of "welcome gift" options to place in guests rooms prior to their arrival. This seems like standard procedure, but all they can offer is a fruit basket, which is probably useless cause most people will be eating fresh fruit at the hotel restuaurants:) We are also trying figure out a fun event to "welcome" the guests with. A cocktail party at the hotel seems uneventful since its an all-inclusive and people can drink/eat to their heart's content. We are considering doing a cocktail cruise of Maroma Bay through Lomas Travel for $60/per person which includes appetizers, drinks, and transportation to Maroma BAY. Bit torn b/c it takes 20-30 mins to get their and the boat cruise is 1.5 hrs then another 30 mins to get back. My fiance is concerned the time spent traveling and all wont be worth it since we aren't on the cruise for very long. Any brides have experience with the Lomas Travel Cocktail Cruise? Any other suggestions for a unique or creative event to bring the group together? They now have a sky lounge, but the photos of the area where a cocktail party could be hosted looks sectioned off and not that exciting. Thoughts?
