Thanks @@Sweetness14! I swear, every other email from my WC reminds me of the pay deadline and you're right, now they're telling me not to worry about it until the wedding builder is all updated. Why are they stressing me out over it?!?

Hi all, I am ~2 months away and still trying to finalize stuff, it's making me crazy! We have all of the important things (ceremony & reception locations, rooms paid for, etc.), but I'm literally 2 days away from having to pay in full and my WC still has not updated our final head count for the menu, added to the wedding builder site the items we've recently had quoted and approved, finalized our 'promotional event', etc. Have you ladies been down this close to the deadline?? Also, does anyone have more information on the Smore's on the beach event? Do they provide tables? I've asked for this event in combination with the Free Cocktail party I earned with booked rooms, which I'm hoping includes drinks and apps, has anyone done this before? Thanks!

thanks! who did you find as a local florist? has it been pretty easy to work with them to get what you envision? Good luck with your big day! Also- I just found this in the original email from my WC, "Decor: Lomas Travel provides all of the wedding décor for Azul Hotels. If you would like to provide some personal décor you may do so, however all items are subject to a setup fee...No outside vendors are permitted for décor. " Were you able to get around this??

Hi Ladies! Just found this website and thread this evening, and wow, so much info! Sorry upfront if this is a long message! I'm planning our Azul Sensatori wedding for September 2017 and have most of the big decisions made: Always and Forver package cocktail reception at Palapa Yoga the night before the wedding as a welcome reception for everyone ceremony at Zocalo Gazebo at 6:30 pm private dinner reception at Plaza Zavas at 7 pm (we were bummed there was no time for a cocktail reception in between the two events, so moved it to the evening before) I had originally been picking out decor on the lomas travel website as well as planning on bringing down additional items, but now I'm re-thinking things and wondering if I should be bringing more in myself. Honestly, I didn't know/realize that their prices were really high, I just figured, it's a wedding, everything is expensive..so I had a few questions for past brides... what was the set up fee they charged for bringing in your own decor? a lot of you mentioned that you brought in your own organza to use for the sheers for the gazebo, chair bows, table overlays, etc...did you have these all pre-cut to the correct dimensions or did you just hand them the bolt of fabric and let them do it all? do they pack up all of the items and return it to you? what sort of lighting is there at the Plaza Zavas at night? So far, we were planning on bringing decor for the tables including: little glass votive candles with LEDs, string lights, luminary bags with LEDs for around the pool, artificial succulents to place around the tables. Also, Flowers...I've been going back and forth with my WC about bouquets...I send a picture showing the colors I want, saying that it doesn't have to be those exact flowers, but just whatever they usually use, but in those colors...and she send back an insane quote for the exact bouquet that was in the picture. How did you all get the bouquets you wanted? Asked for the exact flowers and in what colors, or let them design something? I'm so lost with this part. Thanks in advance for any/all help and advice!!
