Thank you but it was quite annoying.
At the gazebo, the wind is at your back, so either my FI was holding my veil, or it was tucket in the back of my dress.
You also see me constantly moving my hair out of my face, when I couldn't stand it anymore.

On the beach for pictures, the wind came at an angle so the my veil was tucked and Claudia R had to finally loan me a hair clip to be able to continue with taking pictures.

I was married at DC on June 9, so I think I can provide some insight into the number of weddings question. In the morning we would see 3 or 4 of the "free" weddings - (just the couple, maybe a few guests, the bride usually had a small bouquet and a sundress, so I'm guessing these were the "free" ones). We were there 5 days, each day had at least one more elaborate wedding in the early evening and on 2 days 2 elaborate weddings were held (One was on our wedding day and we're pretty sure they confused our weddings. Don't panic I'm writing a review to help you prevent this from happening to you!). These weddings followed were on the same day as the more simple ones, but I never saw more than 2 elaborate weddings.

The ladies are right on about the hair - though Paula's still looked fabulous. It is more windy than I could've imagined. Like Jilly my sister and I both had little stray pieces flying around in the pictures, though it's not too obvious. My bangs drove me nuts! I had planned on leaving it down for TTD, but wore it up because all of Cancun was super windy (but it is hurricane season). My seamstress mentioned there are little almost invisible weights she could add onto a veil, so maybe that's an option for those who really want one. I just went with flowers.

Did you all who have already been married at DC have extra meals at your receptions for the DJ, photographer, WC, etc?

[tlomlad]

thats a really great question did not think about that?

[*JillD*]

No, I didn't, but we didn't have a DJ and the photographer left before the reception.

[tlomlad]

was just thinking and if we have to pay a day pass for the photog then i guess they would be able to eat where ever they wanted, or i would think/?

Ahhh good point!!

They can eat wherever they want BUT you have to remember for them to do that they have to leave you for however long. If you are having them through the reception you might either want to call them room service? If that is possible or buy them a meal. I think you should talk to the photographer though. I thought about this for a while. And I really don't want them to have to leave to eat and possible miss a toast or some other crazy thing that may happen ya know?

Another good point...see these are the little details that are killing me. I am all thinking I am doing great with having things set then BAM I remember some small little thing that comes to mind. But thanks to the awesome forum crew it will be easier to remember and decide!
