  1. Oh Wow, congrats ! This is so exciting ! Having a wedding at home (and paid for???) is the ultimate. Have fun ! And now, what you're going to save from being spent in Mexico will be for your beach honeymoon ! (And if you still want pictures of you on the beach in your wedding gown...bring it to your honeymoon and wear it again !)
  2. We have just received our photobook included in the Divine package, we are so happy with it. Now, onto making our photobook for the grandmothers who couldn't be there, our thank you cards and some prints. I just ordered through mypublisher.com...
  3. Amanda, Thanks for clarifying that about the setup and decor. Not that its gonna change anything for me since I got married last month... But that is a huge deal to be clarified on their comparison sheet and more explicit details in their booklet. I basically took the divine for the included decor. It didn't even cross my mind to ask if it was in the eternity package ! Ladies, if I would have known, I would have gone for the eternity 1- I didn't really want the videographer and honestly the final cut is rather poor in quality, it doesn't play in my Xbox, the music is not to our liking, I think our guests would have done a similar job and we could probably get it edit by a friend... 2- the guitarist was good and worth paying for, I wasn't too fussy about not having a song of our choice being played in the audio system for me to go down the aisle; I wouldn't have had the tine to choose a song to play in the system from our playlist 3- the romantic dinner in the beach was a good add but it only took us away from our guests for an hour, an hour too muh away from them. We ate fast and left. It was delicious, it gave us an excellent idea of the wedding menu since we hose something very similar. Make of this what you want, otherwise my day was fantastic and went without a tick !!! I'm just a bit annoyed to have spent 700$ that could have gone to something else or in my pocket !!! I will write to Anel and Ramon about this.
  4. Hi Hayleymarch13, I know, we never get enough replies, and never quickly enough... But they read their emails and they do their adjustments on their worksheet. At the wedding coordination meeting with Ramon a few days prior/on arrival to the resort, they had all my info. Ramon was going over the planning form sheet, in a rather non-challant/quickly way. I realized after, that I, ME, was the one who wanted to spend more time, but HE doesn't need to. Anel and Ramon have it SO SO SO under control. Yes, they extremely busy with most of the time 3 weddings per day !!! I decided on the dinner menu like 7 days prior to my departure...I just email that bit to them and that's what we confirmed at the meeting. The only thing that was left as a surprise was my bouquet: I sent them pictures of what I liked, and I was very pleased with it. I gave them my printed menus, name cards and favors two days before the ceremony without real instructions (they had the seating chart) and they just placed it neatly: the menu in the material napkin and the name card on top. I guess I should have told them to put the favors on a corner of the name card (b/c that's how I wanted it), instead the favors were next to the plates near the forks. What budget sheet are you looking for exactly ? I created my own with what was spent so far, and the expected expenses still to pay... I also have my bill in my pictures, you can look at it. Cheers
  5. Dina, From the airport to Puerto Morelos it is 70$, and from Puerto Morelos to airport is 45$, my sister-in-law took the cab both ways. I only took the cab to PDC, for 45$. My other sister-in-law took the cab from PDC to Puerto Morelos and said it was 40$ including tip.
  6. Some professional pictures, but mostly pictures taken by my brother with my camera. This album is more to help you decide rather than showing off. We had 29 guests, and 3 babies under 2 yo. Do not hesitate to contact me for more info Don't be shy, leave comments
  7. Hi Ladies, I would just like to mention to you that a cab ride to Playa Del Carmen from Puerto Morelos is 45$, one way, by the highway, only about 20 minutes... People say as a joke that in Mexico the first most expensive thing is electricity, second is taxi... Taxi is a huge business in that area, they know that people want the comfort of their own private taxi, and that they won't want to go through the hassle of renting a car. Just be aware of this cost. I wanted flowers for my bridesmaids and the groomsladies. To get them through Now Sapphire, it would have been 65$ each. I ordered silk flowers from afloral.com and was very pleased. it was 16$ each. I was able to personalise them myself. See in my pictures for the final look...
