perfectionista

Hi - I have just booked my wedding at Azul Beach Hotel for which will be in June 2014. For those of you who have been married here which package did you choose? The prices seem to be adding up quickly for everything. We didn't realize the private reception dinner would be an additional cost on top of the wedding package. We reserved right before they changed the wedding package options, so we went with the pearl package for $950. Have most brides brought their own photographers or used the approved vendors? I don't like the look of caribe photos and the other approved vendor Matias Cano seems to have decent photos, however, we're thinking of bringing our own photographer. Not sure what to do about videography. Are other brides planning to have a DJ? What about wedding decor? Are you purchasing through Lomas or bringing your own? Any guidance would be great.. I'm so overwhelmed. Thanks ladies...
