Not sure what would happen if you needed guest passes at the last minute. The vendor policy is sneaky and I'll probably work up the numbers, but I also have sent them an email string I kept to and from Nancy about reserving them through Lomas. I also mentioned that it illustrated how poorly Nancy communicated and that a lot of assuming had to be done after receiving answers from her.

I just spoke to Fabio, and he said that as long as the prices that Claudia gave you and that Lomas charges are the same you can arrange it through him and you won't have to pay the extra $500.

Hello,

 

I am new to the site and am getting married at the Sensatori in April. Is there any way that brides can post their pics here for us to get ideas? My wedding coordinator is on vacation at the Azul Sensatori this week and said she will take tons of pictures. Hopefully it looks complete!

My review on TripAdvisor has been pending review for 2 days so far, so hopefully it will go up today or tomorrow with a few more pics.

I'm also originally from Kansas... Just moved out to South Carolina a year ago...

The day passes is something I haven't thought of. Are you planning on pay for the day passes yourself? Or are you asking your guests to pay for day passes that aren't staying at the hotel?

Hi ladies...I just got an email from Tiffany who has taken over for Nancy.

 

I just sent her a long email detailing me enquiries/requests, I'll paste it below and if anyone is interested in any of the answers let me know and I can send them on to you!

 

Hi Tiffany,

 

Thanks so much for the email. I look forward to working with you! I have been working on some plans for our wedding, here is what I have so far and any questions…plus I’ll need to get some costs from you on some things too please:

 

· Ceremony at 3pm…how long does this generally last? We’d like enough time to have the ceremony, then have pictures taken before moving to the cocktail reception before dinner.

 

· Ceremony on the beach…I would like the beach set up please, decorated with teal and lavender coloured fabric…please see photo below for inspiration.

 

· For the chairs, I would like the white covered chairs with teal bows tied around in the same gauzy fabric as on the gazebo.

 

· After the ceremony will there be a bar available for the guests to have some cocktails before dinner and while we get some photos taken?

 

· We would like to have a Mariachi band play for about an hour before dinner.

 

· We would like our dinner set up on the beach please.

 

· For the dinner, I am wondering how many entrées we can allow our guests to choose from? I was hoping to offer one seafood, one meat, and one vegetarian.

 

· Is wine with dinner included?

 

· During dinner, are we able to play a video on a screen?

 

· Our after dinner reception/dance I would also like on the beach…I have attached a picture of the type of set-up I would like, but using my colour palette. We would also like some stand-up tables around the area, and a small dance floor set up. Tiki torches and candles also.

 

· I will not need a DJ, we will be bringing our iPod of our songs, but will need the set-up for that.

 

· I will decide on flowers closer to the day.

 

We are bringing our own photographer…he is my cousin and will be a guest for the week at the resort with us. Nancy had said this is fine.

 

Can you please send me cake samples? I have the flower options. Also the wine/champagne list please.

 

I would like to reserve the special bridal suite in the spa for the day of the wedding…how do I go about this?

 

We are expecting between 40-50 guests with most, if not all, staying at the resort.

 

For our welcome dinner, can we use the one offered in the wedding package (SILVER)? And if so, what does that include / not include?

 

We are thinking of having the Mexican Fiesta Cocktail Party for our guests perhaps before the welcome dinner at the restaurant. Is there music included with this since it’s a cocktail party, or can you arrange for it? Where on the property would you recommend having this?

 

Can you please send me the prices for everything, based on 46 people please so I can work out the budget.

 

Thanks so much for your time, I really look forward to hearing from you!

My hotel review is up on TripAdvisor. And I'm warning you. It's longer than the the wedding one!

[natalie ann]

hello all... um i am confused how Polina is getting response from Fabio when my wedding is two months away, and yes he told me along time ago he needs to know 90 days prior how many people, but he wants answer emails for three weeks... so i cant make any decision and only have two weeks before i cant order flowers or anything..a little worried

[mexicanbridewithquestions]

beachbride2009 - I would love to know the answers. Please post them or forward them to me at abbyjiu@gmail.com.

 

Natalie Ann - give Fabio a call. He almost always is available to talk on the phone. The only problem with phone is there is no documentation, but you can get some answers and then maybe he'll start corresponding on email too.
