Breanna2015

The resort doesn't charge an outside vendor fee for photographers, they only charge for a day pass which is $65. So you definitely save a ton of money going with her!

Thank you! The salon at the resort actually did my hair! It was a man, I forget his name but he's the only guy that works there. The headband I got at David's Bridal!

My husband and I got married here about a month ago. Today, we received our photos from the photographer. One word, AMAZING. She's does amazing work and is an absolute gem to work with. If you are looking for a photographer, Susana Hidalgo from myadorablebridal is in my opinion the best in the area! Here is the link to our photos if you would like to see her work... http://www.myadorablebridal.com/blog/breanna-sean

That sounds fun! Our reception ends at midnight so hopefully the party is still going in the bar by then time we get there! I'll still be wearing my wedding dress lol

Hi everyone, I'm just curious what everyone plans to do after the reception. Is there an area to keep the party going for a bit longer?

Ugh that is annoying! On the bright side, most people probably won't remember the time you put on the invitation and most probably will leave it home and not bring them down to Mexico. I have t made programs or welcome letters yet, just curious what are you putting on them? And what is your wedding time line? Our ceremony is at 6 and once we wrote out our timeline it looks like dinner won't be until 830...just curious how other brides timelines look.

We're pretty much all set with everything! I have the suitcase packed with our decor, and a few more I've started with our clothes. We only hired a DJ, Disco Movil. We will use the free ceremony video and just set up a camera in a tripod during reception. We just have to finish filling out the wedding form and we're ready to go! I can't wait! See you down there lol

My wedding is the same day! Maybe we'll bump into each other! Good luck and happy planning we're so close!

For past brides- are the Mosquitos that bad at night? I've seen some postings about this by brides and now I'm nervous. I don't want myself or guests covered in bites!

Have any past brides tried the chicken with seafood stuffing as their meal? Or what did you choose? For future brides, do you know what entree you're going with?

That would be awesome! My email is [email protected]

Does anyone have pictures of the beach terrace?

I'm not positive so you might want to check to be sure, but I was told by Ramon if I had my reception at the preferred pool I wouldn't be allowed to have a DJ at that location. Maybe just email your wedding coordinator to make sure they will allow that for you.

Did you use the resort photographer? What package did you get and how many pics? Right now I'm looking at about 1100 for the photographer

I'm just curious what package did you use? I have about 30 people as well and I can't seem to keep the bill under $7000.00 with the Divine Package. I want my total to be closer to yours lol!

I was wondering that too. I asked Ramon months ago but he never replied

The calla lilies bouquet is one of the picture under the divine package. I thought those came free with the Divine and $65 for bridal party? If not then I guess I have to start looking for outside vendors as well!

That would be great if you could give me a review of the DJ when you get back! Coral, navy and gold sounds so beautiful! Mine is blush, beige and gold. My email is [email protected]. Thanks so much! For flowers I'm using the resort florist. I feel like it's just easier to stick with them. We're doing Calla Lillie's for the bouquets and I'm also thinking of adding flowers to the arch for the ceremony. What are you doing for flowers/who are you using?

Hi! Congrats on your wedding! It's so soon! Where are you having your reception? Mine is on the beach terrace. Yes staying within a 10k budget is a bit tricky but I'm hoping we can do it. We're using the resort photographers and DIsco Movil for our DJ. As for decor, I've purchased lanterns to put along the aisle during the ceremony then bring them on as centerpieces for the reception. Also, I ordered beautiful chair sashes off of etsy and wrapped lace around mason jars as candle holders. I'm also thinking of upgrading to the gold Tiffany chairs. Although it's $10 per chair I think it will add elegance and I won't have to buy as much decor. I still have more items to buy for decor though. I'd love to know what your theme is and the decorations you are bringing down. I didn't realize the taxes alone are that expensive. I'm also doing the Divine Package. Luckily, we only have about 35 guests attending. Is there anyway you can send me the budget sheet you have? I would just love a bit of an outline as to the extras that I'm sure I'm forgetting about!

Haha I am also thinking of the photo booth! They're always a highlight at weddings. Photos are important to me as well, unfortunately we are trying to keep the budget under 10k which seems impossible to do if we hire an outside photographer . You don't happen to have a budget sheet do you? I think I have almost everything planned for, but I'm nervous I must be forgetting things!

I feel the same way! But honestly, I'm not sure that I'll feel ready until like a month or so before the wedding, which I guess is when Ramon sets up a phone call to go over details. So far we have the dresses, DJ, centerpieces and chair sashes and I'm thinking of just going with the resort photographers. I'm beginning to think it's actually more stressful trying to plan a destination wedding as aposed to a wedding around home!

Aw how exciting! We're getting very close! what time is your ceremony? Mine is at 6pm. I'm getting nervous about all the remaining little details!

I'm getting married on the beach terrace April 24,2015. I'm curious if any past brides have pictures of their wedding on the beach terrace? Or even on the tequila terrace if they didn't have a dance floor. I don't want to pay $700 for a dance floor but I'm nervous it might look awkward without a designated dance floor area.

Hi ladies! I'm getting married at 6pm and the reception around 730pm on the beach terrace in April, does anyone know if the string lights they supply are enough lighting? Is anyone bringing their own? If so, where are you putting them? I'm having a hard time decorating for a reception when I haven't seen the area in person.

@@vanessav53 thanks and congrats to you too! Is that 441 per night? What time of the year are you going? We can't wait! The resort looks gorgeous.
