    @@amarie4713 Thanks so much for sharing! We are similar though no colours chosen yet. I'm heading to Mexicofor the personal experience I didnt want a big fuss.....which it would have been at home, the nerves would have killed me! I too have the Bamboo room, the air conditioning swung it for me even if it is big.....slightly worried it's too big! Just been trying on wedding dresses today & it turns out I've not a clue! You must be so happy having your plans in place, I'm nervous just picking a dress....I'm a nightmare! Ha ha ha Good luck!! :)

    My fiancé and I have been engaged for nearly 7 years so for us it was just about a nice trip together! Air conditioning is why I chose the bamboo room too, however it's not going to be as hot I hope in November!

     

    Also, I bought a dress 3 years ago. And just switched it up recently :)

    Yes, well we're coming from Scotland so it was a lot to ask of people to come along! I'm sure I'll still have a fab day though. Do you mind sharing what you're planning for your day? Where your reception is etc?

    We are only bringing immediate family and our very close friends. We did not even invite anyone else. Originally we planned for the bamboo room, however I'm starting to reconsider and thinking about the pool area. I think the bamboo room might be too large. Pilar said I could decide when we arrived because they're both available and we currently have the room booked already.

     

    We have the pergola booked for the ceremony. No wedding party since we have so few guests. I'm taking as little decor as I can. Mostly just linens and paper lanterns. I booked @@MomentsThatMatter photography. Booked the divine package. Purple and Mint are my colors. My dress just got here this week and as soon as altered we're nearly done! And I'm excited.

     

    The closer we get to the date the happier I am that we decided on a destination wedding.

    My wedding is on 26th May 15 so still lots of time to decide. I'm working on a few quotes from an outside photographer so will see how it goes, so expensive!! I'm getting lots if answers here but it creates more questions!! Ha ha ha Dress picking is the next thing on the agenda!

    We are using Moments that Matter. I think he was pretty reasonable and his works looks amazing. I had to beg my fiancé to agree I let us hire someone outside. But I know we won't regret it!

    I debated bringing my own speakers instead as well. But I believe we'll be by the pool and the first dance is important to me so I decided to rent the sound system, even though it's outrageously priced.

     

    We also hired an outside Photographer. I was not willing to risk bad photographs. We'll be using the resort photographer for a trash the dress session.

    Thanks Anne Marie! That's what I was finding! We had the moments package but by the time the judge, dinner, flowers, decor it was getting ridiculous! I guess it's just one of those things that we're not getting full advantage of the 25 guests but never mind! Shouldn't complain, I have seen lots of brides with way more guests than they expected! Incidentally does anyone know if you upgrade from the comlimentary package do you pay the difference in price or do you pay the full package. e.g If we are going from moments to Divine

    You pay the full price of the package, minus the deposit, plus extras and tax I believe. We upgraded from eternity to divine

    Hi fellow brides to be!

    I'm organising our wedding for next year so not stressing to much yet! However just wanted to see if there are any other small wedding parties heading out. Looks like we'll just have 10 guests & I was thinking about the the upgraded wedding packages Eternity/Devine. I'm not sure if I'm wasting my (parents) money as we're really paying for 25 but I've tried costing out al a carte which looks expensive but be doing this wrong! Any advice on the subject?

    I only have about 15 guests, 17 with the bride and groom. A wedding package is definitely worth the money. That stuff is EXPENSIVE otherwise! Unless you don't really care about a private dinner reception, then you might possibly be able to make it work.

    HI Ladies-

     

    I am getting married at Now Jade July 11th and have been working on the planning form. On the form it says that the photographer fee is $65.

     

    Thanks!

     

    Marta

    I spoke with them today and the day pass has been raised to 150 apparently because that is what I was quoted. Email as follows:

     

    Greetings from Now Jade

     

    The outside vendor fee is $350, ( florist, band, decoration company, live music) but this doesn't apply to photographers as they are not categorized as vendors. Your photographer(s) will be required to pay a $150.00 usd per person for a wedding day pass. We request the name and time that the photographers come to the resort.

     

    If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me.
