Getting Married on the 22nd!! Very Excited. Just trying to figure out how much money we need to tip everyone? Any suggestions?

Hello, I am getting married in Jan!! Time is going so quickly. My wedding coordinator was replying very quickly now it has slowed to maybe every two weeks. Can be frustrating. Other than that they are good. We are extending our reception by 2 hours. We have the strawberry passion package. I am getting styling trio for my hair and makeup. And hired an outside photographer/videographer. I might also get an external DJ. most recently I am having problems with giving my hair and make up package that came with the package to my mom. My friend did it when she got married there and I know other brides have done it. But they are saying I can't. I am tempted to just book it and send my mom to the appt. lol I feel like they really punish you for going with outside vendors. But I think for some things it's worth it. Anyone doing any events during their wedding week for guests?! Or doing OOT bags?!

Hello, So I have recently been looking into outside vendors for things but the resort is wanting to charge me like crazy for everything. I came to terms with the 500usd for the photographer, but now its 150usd for the hairdresser I have coming in and the last draw is that apparently recently it has changed its rules on DJs. You have to pay 100usd per hour for electricity. How could it ever cost that much? I could understand 100usd. But 100usd per hour! We aren't even going to be on the beach! I am currently trying to fight this as it is not listed anywhere on their website and they don't tell you about it until you are booked and trying to plan your wedding. Anyone have any luck with this? Thanks

Hello Everyone, I am getting married in January 2015. 5.5 months and counting. I am trying to decide what to do about a photographer and videographer. I wanted to see what the resorts was like but the website doesn't work and I have emailed them like 3x and no response. I have been looking around for a package with a videographer and photographer but some of them can be quite pricey. You think it would be cheaper in mexico! Has anyone found any decent companies with ok prices? any suggestions would be great.

Hello, I am in the same boat with this resort. I have emailed them. No answer and their website doesn't seem to work. Doesn't seem too reliable. is it possible to get that pdf from you? it won't let me open it on here.
