hi ! actually, i have nothing but praises for the DJ, and the music /sound was really good! i actually have to say, that nothing struck out of the ordinary !

hi, thank you so much J no rehearsals, i was just so anticipating seeing my guys up there, my mind was numb and i cried all the way down the aisle lol, i even messed up taking the (don’t know in English) but the round thing that melts in your mouth and sticks to your pallet, i just took it, didn’t place my hands lol , but you can go to the chapel beforehand and go see and do a practice run! i would if liked a little more prep for this, but the priest guides you along,

hi everyone, well we are back! wow that a resort, i can’t believe how many weddings we saw! There must of been one every day and we were there 2 weeks !!!! crazy ! these girls are just plain awesome, and no worries about details, cause once there you go over everything anyway, we had our party at the health bar, and it was just perfect! cozy and fun, we even dances with the coordinators and the dj lol , They are with you every step of the way and will do anything to make your day go as best it can! , i dont have the pics for the photographer yet but i got a couple form the people around ! we passed by the chapel before the wedding, and we only saw the priest there, he read passages and so did a person of our group, ill post more pics when i get them,.. feel free to ask questions,

well we are leaving in 2 days! i cant believe its finally here ! im such a nervous wreck and were getting a snow storm tomorrow, anyway, so we are going for hair-makeup at 1pm, ceremony is at 4pm, then toast- plus cocktail hour added so we can go take pictures, having the super at the steak house at 6:30, then having the dancing and party at the health bar, it was supposed to be at the beach bar, but there was a mix up and long story short, it will be at the health bar from 8:30-10:30 ! don’t worry, and ask away all the questions, im pretty sure i made a couple of people go nuts with all my questions, but the gals at the resort are really nice and answer not always as fast as i would of liked but, they always get back to you ! good luck and have fun

wow its been so quiet here ! we in a week ill be heading for the airport ! im so excited, overwhelmed and tired all at the same time.. anyone know how the spa works? meaning, do you pay at the spa? do you pay cash, or by credit card if its cash, is it charged in pesos or in cad or in us? ive been trying to get an answer from my coordinator, but its not clear and were trying to finalize what will be paid where here... if anyone has any insight !! thanks viviane

ok my friends ! im about all set up here! wow what am i doing to do with all my time now that this is mostly figured out !!!! i was able to find a referenced photographer from friends, who agreed to go to our resort for a 4 day vacation, and not charge us for the 6 hours of photos she will take !!!! i am so ecstatic, i had found nothing under 2000$ Canadian for photographers with the vendor fees and other fees., now ill pay 1200$ cad, and im all set ! ok, i almost killed my future husband with this but... i can’t get passed the fact that its moments we will have forever, i also decided on getting water bottles for our guests i was looking online all day, and was getting discouraged about the prices because most sites that sell with inscriptions you need to get 50-100 bottles.,.. so the cost was major, so i found some stainless steel bottles last night at a store close to home (50% off) and i found another site i didn’t need to get 100 stickers made, and those are being processed also ! so i will be able to give those, and also im going to get some cards made out for the preview of the day., anyone else have good ideas on party favors or what you are working on? Viviane

ho non i didn't change anything, im just feeling nervous about returning the document since there are so many implications...

has anyone asked to change something in the private contract of service, its a nice long 3 pages of terms and conditions ... stressful...

hi Calgary ! well ive gotten prices from a couple of places and for only 3 hours, nothing comes without being under 2000$, that’s after converting it to cad, and having added the fee from the hotel for outside vendors... yes adventure photos is really pricy.. Im not quite sure how im going to get this one passed my future husband,… lol

ok, i have decided to go with the silver package, and i added an hour more of cocktail party after the ceremony and after the restaurent ive gotten the private beach party and some lights., now, im looking at the photographs, some seem so amazing, but my man is going nuts with the prices, i have not seen anything that would come under 2000$(changing to canadian) and thats for 3hrs, and it would cost 1000$ cad to fly someone for 3 days, who could be there the whole day ! i think im going to try to bring someone things are moving along !!!!

hi Alex, i would of done the free weeding, but we are not enough unfortunatly, people were not very fond of our plan.. we only have 7 rooms booked and needed 10 for the free weeding. so its extra cost for us...

hello everyone ! i feel like a major weight has been lifted off my shoulders, the priest has received our papers and all is in order for the religious wedding ! wow that was a lot of work ! ok, now, i have 2 options, the silver or the gold wedding, both will come out at about the same in the end, but they will be different with the gold most of the things will be included, and but we will have the wedding, the toast, and the restaurant for 4 hours, (adding the dj) to the mix. plus included in the package is spa time, vip status, rehearsal dinner. with the silver wedding, we will have the wedding, the toast, the restaurant for 1.5hrs, and im adding the beach cocktail, and lights after, make-up and hair, any advice or thoughts anyone has would be welcome !!!

YYC !!! wow !!! you must be so excited !! i cant wait to hear from your trip and wedding !

ho boy, im feeling so nervous now after reading the bad review. im so sorry this went so badly for you Tara, here it is T - 65 days before the departure !!! i was going for the gold package and getting a DJ for the reception, but now i dont know if its worth it, im also trying to fill out the silver package and adding a private cocktail after the reception at the restaurent., this is getting really stressful now.. it was so far away and now its so close, anyone else getting married there soon or anyone else who didnt have such a bad experience? thanks Viviane

yes i had thought about the dj, we are only about 17, so not close enough for the palapa, i could see having the dj at the restaurant, ! thanks for all the answers

thanks for your help, happy birthday to your kids, i was also a twin ,. i didnt think you could dance at the restaurant ! but if this is an option i could add the dj, (not sure its worth the $$$ for the dance floor like 600$) do the cake and speaches, and after we can just relax i guess we are not enough for the upgrade to the palapa, would of been great.. i gone email attack on the poor girl at GS, lol ho well,

hi everyone, the days a flying by, religious aspects are covered and now our legal ceremony is dec 19th, and going to GS march 25th im having trouble figuring what to do, im looking at the silver and gold packages, with the silver the reception is only 1.5 hr, and after i would need to do something so do the private cocktail party and rent the dj a little more cause its juste for 2 hours? and with the gold package, the reception is 4hrs, but then we are just at the restaurant and then thats it? no dance with the father and after party? what are you doing ??? i need helllppppp lol

ho cool ! we can talk about our process ! my email is vrene.home@@gmail.com if you would like im talking with Adriana also, but i think i burned her with all my questions and wanted my down payment before she continued... lmao ...

it should be march 29th ! she would not confirm before i sent the deposit.. who was your contact there?

well i sent in the forms and booked my date, and booked out some seats on the plane !!! theres no going back now ... lol

ho im so happy you answered !! im going nuts here,. i was almost all set up with an other resort and the prices went up for next year and it just killed it for us,. so im gack here and i need to start all over again.. do you mind giving me all the prices break down i dont know if you have a plan or excel sheet or if its too personal, but let me know, you can reach me at vrene.home@@gmail.com if you want... thanks for your time,.. i love your pages and your explanations its so helpfull

Hi everyone ! Does anyone know if the platinum package include food for 10 people or is it completely appart? What else are you adding to the package ??

i was planning on getting the sky suite to start with for the rental room, do you think i should get the room under that so i can get an upgrade? im trying to go around getting the cost to go lower, the unlucky person taking care of my questions must be going nuts lol... were getting married on march 29th ! so almost a year to go !!!

ya i saw that we could not get the free complementary package! well i think im going to let go of the sky suite for now, cause that really boosts up the price, and go with the A&F package, and get an upgrade for tables like you did ! and the BBQ seems to be the best option !! cause at least you get the 4 hours bar service ! yes i have a transat rep already lined up ! ill see what we can get !!! i saw the lomas site.. thanks again

thank you so much for your help, your priceless right now !! cause im starting to panic lol
