Azul Sensatori Brides - POST HERE!

Hi Ladies,

 

Just got back from vacay... oh my goodness you ladies were busy!!  I'm going to go back and try to skim through all the posts to catch up but please forgive me in advance if I miss out on anything and therefore re-ask things or comment needlessly.

Just thought I'd voice an idea on the guest book thing.  It's not really DW focused or anything (and would require someone to be "in charge" of the carry-on. .... But I'm planning to probably do a clay platter for a guest book.  Everyone signs it with permanent markers and when you get home you bake them in the oven to set it all.

 

I'm pretty into cooking and so it would be something I would hang on the wall in my kitchen and would be a nice personal day-to-day reminder. (As opposed to a guestbook that I will probably rarely ever look at again).  Just another idea for ya.

I got less than a month to finish up last minute stuff and I have not decided on what to do. Any suggestions? Am I over-thinking this?

 

have you checked out photo book America...they have some fantastic guest books

Has anyone heard of wedit.com?

 

I know that I am not paying for a videographer...but I think this is a great option to get video of all types of moments that you wouldn't get with a normal video....

Hmm.. not sure why your quote is not coming up...

Thanks for the suggestions. After I read your post, I wrote an email to my TA asking if the meals for photographers are included in the "package" since we are using the resort's recommended vendor. She said it's included in the price!!! No additional fee. I feel much better about it.

 

Now.. I need to figure out if we want to take pictures before the ceremony in case we don't feel like we are going to have enough time to take all the pictures. We don't want our guests to wait too long...

 

Sounds like I will have time to lunch before getting ready for the big day... I still haven't figure out the makeup thing yet. I really need to get on that.

Hi Girlies...

 

I took someones advice and I have been reading old posts...started at 400 and Im at like 550 now

 

its taking me foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrr!  but im learning a lot!

 

quick question about photogs

 

are we allowed to use a mexico photographer(not on their list) if we pay the 500??

i read somewhere that the outside photog cannot be mexico based?

but then i saw weddings with mexico photogs, like elizabeth medina

 

 

also, who are their photogs?  caribe, matias  and claudia?  some ppl are saying shes on, others say she's not.

 

 

Thanks a bunch!

Welcome back! Hope you had a blast. Very unique idea about the guest book.

When I signed my contract Caribe and Matias were the only resort photogs available that you did not have to pay the putside vendor fee for. I know that some brides have used Mexican photogs prior to this and even more recently. I would say ask for whoever you want and try to negotiate even if they say no at first. Just be prepared to pay the $500 or have them stay 3 nights. Pricewise, for us it didn't make sense so we're bringing one from The States, but maybe you can find one you like that they'll approve.
