People say the prices are cheaper through a TA or the websites vs. paying for them at the resort. I for one don't want to book anything until i am there (because of the weather) so we're going to play it by ear.

I may fly down a friend/photog who will do my pics for free, or I may enlist cancun studios. Have to see how things work out. I didn't even think of five months until you said that, WOW. We get to Cancun on the 8th(not sure what time), we should meet for drinks. When do you get in? Are you bringing decorations or anything for tables. I've decided against bringing anything beyond gift bags for the guests. It is so pretty there I doubt anyone will notice missing decorations. Getting Excited!

I actually get in on the 9th. I am bringing centerpieces for tables. I am also doing gift bags. I am not doing decorations for gazebo..it is just so beautiful on its own. Like you said no one will even notice. We will definitely have to meet for a drink. Most of my guests do not arrive until Wed-thurs. Only immediate family will be there tuesday. We will likely hang out at the resort and soak up the atmosphere tuesday. I was also hoping to set up a meeting with Claudia to make some final decisions.

I am freaking out.

My wedding is in two weeks and I have my ceremony booked for 5:00pm... I wanted to have it during sunset but I heard from some of you that the photos won't turn out nice because it gets dark so quickly.

I need Gaby to respond ASAP and I hope she can switch out time for sooner. Has anyone heard from her in the last couple of days?

[jcoop]

I got an email from her a few hours ago. She's seemed pretty responsive lately, so hopefully you'll get something back from her soon. I'm sure it won't be a problem!

 

Also, she seems to look out for that anyways...i originally told her i wanted a 6:00 ceremony, and when she sent me my contract she said "i booked you for 4:00 because 6:00 will be too dark".

What a nightmare!!! let me know what you decide Tracy

I think we are going to go off site simply because we wouldn't feel good about going to one of the other restaurants that they've already paid for in the AI package lol I wouldn't mind but FI won't have it lol

I'm now desp looking for a place. FI's idea wait until get there!!! WTF lol

Ok she responded and it only took 4 days lol

The vid is $600 plus tax!! Holy crap lol I told FI and he said "F** that" lmao If i'm truthful I was only getting it so he could load it on to his laptop for afghanistan and his sister is really ill so she might want to see it but he'll have to just remember lol

Thanks JCOOP, hopefully she gets back to me soon. I hope she can do it for 2:00pm because a couple of weeks ago she said that was the only other time they have available. I think they should limit the weddings to max two per day not 3 or 4. I think that's insane.

I am not sure what to do now!!! My FI said it up to me I have to decide!!! I will maybe try and find other restuarants off site to see what is suitable!!! That is crap the video is $600 pretty steep, don't you think?? What is really annoying me right now is the lack of communication. you ask a question and it takes so long for a response!!!! Let me know what you decide. Tracy

Hi Jen I just wanted to wish you luck and I hope your day is just wonderful. I will be arriving on the 24th June so I will probably miss you. Tracy

Marie, if that is all you want it for I would put a camcorder in someones hands and then show it to her. You could buy a camcorder for a lot cheaper than that! Hey that could be my job while I am there lol
