Hi LaJed, I'm finishing up grad school too and booked my wedding at EPM for 5/2014. I am really excited but nervous about the details as well. All the reviews I've seen point to an awesome time, so I'm not super nervous about the room or service etc. I have Alejandro communicating with me, but I wonder if he will be the wedding coordinator or not at this point or if there is one on staff at the hotel? Also we did get the DJ cost I had not heard of an option for a Bose system, though I'd be interested the DJ is 900! We did get quite a bit of detail from Alejandro so far that I'd be happy to share if you want from price lists and options etc. He also recommended some local vendors for rentals and additional flowers. One additional thing we need to investigate is vegetarian options--eek. We booked the Excellence of Love package (which doesn't really specify what that is exactly as far as options/types of flowers/etc) if you find anything out, let me know! haha Thanks for starting a new thread, that old one was great but over 270 pages, most of them pretty old posts. Good luck in your planning and with school! Best, -D
