  1. . The easiest way is to definitely work with a destination wedding travel agent. Most of them have questionnaires that can help you choose the right fit. They also help to possibly get discount rates and promotions that you wouldn't get with booking directly with the resort Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. . Hi just had my wedding 3 weeks ago at a Karisma resort, Azul Sensatori to be exact because I had kids at my wedding but I worked with a destination wedding travel agent and received a few promotions that way. I don't think those resorts themselves directly offer promotions Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. . Hello I just got married in the Riviera Maya area and used Find Arts Studio Photography Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. . Honestly I'm not 100% sure of the exact cost but I think it was about 1k. My sister paid for it for me since we were having such a good time Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Just got back from my wedding and honeymoon and I can honestly say I had the smoothest wedding day at Azul. And I honestly can say I don't have anything negative to say about my experience. I got everything I asked for and they decorated the Ballroom (which honestly isn't all that bad like others had mentioned before) exactly how I wanted. I even payed extra to extend my reception an hour because everyone was having such an amazing time Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. I also got switched to Marco about a month or so and he started out responding within 24hrs and then started taking a while. They were having phone issues for a while. Noe that it's fixed I send emails and then call a few hours or the next day and he usually answers and we just go over the email. My wedding is less than a week away and so far so good. I haven't made any payments yet because I was waiting for the wedding builder to be updated correctly Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. . He's been responsive to me. Could be because my weeding is only a few weeks away. This week was the only time he took 48hrs to respond. Is everyone having a symbolic wedding? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Ok great as long as the overall wedding was great. They need to get things together though or they are going to have a bunch of bad reviews from brides Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Did you guys do a symbolic or civil wedding? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. I didn't expect that the set up fee would be $5 per person. The resort only profits from weddings when it comes to items needed really which sucks for us brides. They defiantly should have give a price prior to the day of, that's ridiculous. How was your day overall? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Maybe you can call and ask for a different WC. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. I'm now working with Marco as well. I also had Paula before. He responds to me usually same day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. . They did advise that they are the only ones that can provide decor and that they don't allow outside vendors except photographers, make-up and hairstylist. If I have to go and get my flowers myself and bring them o the resort, I will because technically any decor I bring on my own is another vendors item. I just won't let the vendor come on site Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. . No I was never told that I could not use an outside vendor. They told me that if I used an outside vendor that I would be charged a fee of $800. I am using Maya Floral. And yes the guys name is Marvin and he responds well and easy to work with Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. . Hi my wedding is two months away. I opted to use a local florists for all my flowers because the cost worked out way cheaper even with the outside vendor fee. The prices they were quoting me for center pieces were way more expensive than even here in NY. I am also bringing all y own decor down including the table cloths. Not sure what the set up fee will be. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Hi everyone. I'm getting married in the Riviera Maya area in 2 months. Yikes! I plan to have a civil ceremony instead of a symbolic one. My fiancé and I don't mind the additional cost, but wanted to know if there were any brides who had a civil ceremony who had any issues once back in the U.S. specifically. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Congrats. Happy you and your fiancé get to have your honeymoon now. I would suggest just contacting the resorts directly and speak with someone from their wedding department. They can sometimes email you all the additional information that you need Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Hi everyone. My wedding is 2 months away.. Yikes. Did any past brides have a civil/legal ceremony at Azul? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Are there any brides who had a civil/legal wedding done at the resort? If so what was the process to ensure it was legal once you were back in the states. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. congrats Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Congratulations on your engagement. I wish I could offer you some help with hotels near by. I have heard and seen many videos of that location. Absolutely beautiful Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. I chose Sensatori because I am having children at my wedding and even though I only visited 3 resorts, my visits there was great. There was more than enough activities for children (especially the Nickalodean Playhouse) and for adults. It had both an adult only section and a family section. Best of both worlds in my opinion.

  22. @@jmp403 yea I'm not going to contact her again. I decided to bring my own items down that I was going to ask her about as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Thanks @@JasminMattPhoto and @@LRosario. I'm still weighing the prices between two photographers and decided to go with Maya Floral for my flowers. It's been about 3 weeks and I haven't heard back from Katy at Love and Lace so I may have to carry my own items from NY. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. @@sarahjayne07 I just received the email regarding the outside vendors. They didn't mention Love and Lace or any Florists by name but it's obvious who they are talking about Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. @@kat5849 The resort is very nice. I visited last October before booking and it is very kid friendly if you plan to have children at your wedding. That was the main reason I chose this resort out of the others. The one downside to the resort is that the beach is very small and is rocky at some parts. My wedding is in May 2017 as well and i am in the process of figuring out decor which many of the ladies have suggested using Katy from Love and Lace
