@@smileitseb we tipped her 3 times (came out to a few hundred-my parents won't tell me how much). Site visit, pre-wedding meeting, and after the wedding. She was beyond excellent and did everything we asked and more. If you figure here at home they'd get 20%, even though she is included, I would be generous if she does her job well!

I sent an email to Tammy whenever I found reviews like that and she immediately removed them and deleted the associated accounts. Just let her know and she'll take care of it.

@@bitbitz no we didn't, the sun set at 6:47 on wedding day and our ceremony was at 5. Cocktail hour from 6:30-7:30. We did pics through most of the cocktail hour and bc we customized our ceremony it went longer than usual. We didn't finish pics until like 7:20 @@fhk815 thanks girl! The flowers were just amazing. We didn't upgrade the actual flowers (eg I wanted ranunculus but it would've been an extra $300 for my bouquet so we went with lisianthus) but the arrangements besides the one on the table are all upgrades: the hanging flowers on the gazebo are the large size (they offer small medi

Everyone I've talked to, including my resort (I just had them a week ago) considers them an outside vendor. If you take business away from the resort (in this case-the hotel spa/salon) you'll most likely get charged the fee. You can try negotiating with your wedding planner! -
@@hsocorso we saw lots on the beach. It's really a matter of preference. We always knew we wanted to upgrade to the Seaside Grille ($1,000). It can get very very windy though. The first 2 nights we were there they had to move the beach weddings inside. @@pddcmc We ended up tipping the WC $400 over the course of 5 months (some during the site visit, some when we first arrived, and some after the wedding). The wedding assistant (Jorge) got $100. The waitstaff got like $40 each and the banquet manager got a little more. These people appreciate it so, so much. We tipped photog $50 only because

Hi everyone! Still not feeling well and this fever just won't break but since I took the day off work to recoup I figured I could write up my review :-) I'll try to address the major parts of the wedding and them go back and see individual Qs. I had the Ultimate Wedding package on Feb 23 with the ceremony at the Gazebo, cocktail on the pool terrace, and reception at the Seaside Grille. Travel: Bill and I flew with Apple vacations/Frontier Air. We had no problem taking our wedding outfits on the plane (the biggest pain was carrying it through the airport!) and we got a private overhead comp

@@Dec2015 my photographer was Karolina, and while her pics were beautiful she was so unfriendly and left out a ton of details from the wedding: the guitarist, menus, personalized maracas, the finished sand ceremony jar, etc. I had to constantly tell her the shots I wanted and she acted bored and annoyed all day. She also did our welcome dinner and there is not even one picture of Bill and I. I made a complaint to my WC and to Adventure Photos. My advice is to tell the photographer everything you want and don't worry about sounding overbearing. I wish I would've spoken up more. Yes the dra
