Has anyone had their reception on the pool terrace? If so, how was it?

Hi ladies! I'm a Now Jade bride-to-be as well! My wedding is set for April, 17th, 2013! I can't believe I'm just now finding this!!! I'm getting married at the pergola at 5, cocktail hour is at the blue beach bar from 6-7, and originally I had the bamboo room scheduled for the reception, but I'm changing it to the pool terrace. Have any other brides used the pool terrace? I recently saw a picture of someone doing this and they had amazing views and were basically right on the beach. Also, I had seen that people were questioning how many days you have to be at the resort before your wedding, I was told three. I will be at the Now Jade from April 14-21!!

Has anyone used only the resort photographer? If so, were you happy with your pictures?

Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone has had Samuel Luna as a photographer? I am thinking about hiring him because so far he has the best rates and his pictures are amazing. He has also been extremely nice and has contacted me within the hour every time I have emailed him. So far I am very impressed, I just wanted to see if anyone else has used his services.

Thank you so much!! I'm glad that the mixed bar is separated from everyone else!! I think it would be awkward to be around everyone else.

Thank you guys so much! I emailed the resort and Deisy got back to me with the confirmation. Apparently, she will be my wedding planner. They sent me the wedding planning form so I guess now it's time to make some decisions!! Where do you ladies think the best place to have the cocktail hour would be? So far, I told them I want the ceremony on the pergola, the cocktail hour in the mix bar, and the reception in the bamboo room. I'm not one hundred percent on the mix bar, so I was wondering what everyone else thought or if anyone had it in the mix bar?

My travel agent took care of everything and I already sent the deposit and have the date held and everything. I just haven't heard from anyone at the resort. I was expecting that they would contact me after I had put down the deposit. Maybe I should email her just to double check.

Hey everyone! I just recently signed the wedding contract for April 17th, 2013!! So far I've done everything through my travel agent, so I was wondering when Pilar started to contact everyone?

That's so exciting!! Sounds like there are a few of us getting married during the same week!

I know exactly what you're going through! Unfortunately, the only person who seems to be making the biggest issue out of it is my mom. Although, when I sent the room rates out to everyone I think she realized that it's set in stone. Now she seems a little more pleasant about it.

Thank you so much Shannonmarie! I was getting extremely upset that people were bashing me for choosing Mexico. I told them that it's not all of Mexico! Bottom-line, it's my wedding and if they don't want to come that's fine with me. I'm sure there wouldn't be people getting married there everyday if there was such a huge issue!! Thanks again!

Hi everyone! I'm getting married at the Now Jade on April 17th 2013. Some of my family members are concerned about the issues Mexico is having with the drug wars and such, and I was wondering how secure the Now Jade and surrounding area seemed to be?

Hi everyone! I'm new to the group! Two people I know got married at Now Jade and now my fiance and myself are planning a wedding there too! All of this information has been so helpful when thinking of all of the different details that we need to know. I've found a travel agent from my hometown and Pilar is my WC.
