@TCruz, you looked great on the dance floor rocking the wedding dress. @Chinanow, we had 36 guests and the Portofino Terrace was perfect for the group. We had four tables and cannot imagine having a 5th table. The dance floor was just enough for the group. Regarding the beauty salon, I would not worry about getting your hair straightened. My sister had her hair washed and straightened before they did her up-do and it did not take too long, although she has very curly hair. However, I would stay on the safe side and get it done at 1 PM even if you are in your room for a few hours before the wedding. I wish I had the time to relax in my room before the wedding, instead it was a big rush. In regard to the lighting, the terrace has enough lighting. We had a DJ and he provided dance floor lighting that gave it a good nightclub ambiance. Below is the best picture to show the venue.  Post your email address and I will send you a link to the rest of my pictures.

Thanks!   Thats how I feel!  Im ready for beach and drinks please!  Im off the week we get back so Ill be posting and answering as many questions as I can

Is anyone getting married the first week of July....I was trying to see if I could just buy off the person before any decorations or votives I may need to keep me from having to carry them to the resort and to keep them from having to take them home with them!!

Wow!!!......I am glad you noticed that, obviously I did not. My ceremony will be at the gazebo as well I am expecting about 30 :S I will have to contact my WC to see what she suggests

Yadria, I did get to see your pics after....absolutely amazing! I loved your colors and your wedding seemed like a dream come true....everyone so happy!!! I pics were great. I am checking into the packages now. Have you heard of Carribean Emotions? I wondered what they are like in the customer relation department, there pics look great as well. All the best

Thanks for all your help I will try and contact someone, to find out more info. I couldn't see your pics from the link

My date is set for July 13 th 2013...... I think we are in the same situation. I am feeling a little overwhelmed. I want everything, but then when I analyze it , I decide against or on something different. My acids awesome though and understands

What were the prices like for HDC.....? And how did the resort photos compare to HDC? I have photos booked with my package but was wondering about xtras....

Do you really think it is a waste of money for a Dj? I was really thinking about booking one

Where is the best (inexpensive ) place to shop for grooms wear and groomsmen wear for the beach?

Hi everyone, I have just joined and think this is a great chance to get some ideas from other brides. I will be getting married here in July of 2013, but I have never been here. All and any helpful suggestions are welcomed. I am super excited and can't wait ....I have already changed my mind about things soo many times, first beach wedding, now gazebo, i think I will drive myself crazy before the wedding day.
