I think you'll be okay still - just start talking to your guests about it and they will probably book sooner than later if they want to go

Does anyone know what the Ultimate package means in terms of photos and video? It says that you get 50 pics and a 30 min dvd. Do you still have to go hire a phtographer? It looks like everyone on this thread is bringing their own so I'm confused. Does the photographer included in the package stink?

I have done hours upon hours of research and I'm using Paulina. The package includes the photographer at the resort, you don't have to pay extra. I asked Rebeca for sample photos of their work, and (this is only my opinion) but they aren't bad, they just aren't awesome. That's all. I was either going to go with them or Promovision for 6-8 hours of coverage, or spend the same budget and get Paulina for maybe only a few hours. So, I think it just depends what you want. More hours, more photos, good photos. Fewer hours, fewer photos, amazing quality. It also depends on your budget. Just ask Rebeca to send you sample of the work from the resort, she will send it over to you.
I'm using Paulina for photo but I am using the 30 min video from the resort that is included in the package.
Let me know if I was confusing too, it's a little late, so I'm not sure if all that made sense...

Thanks Jill! I just got the photo stuff from the resort and totally agree with you - although you are way more PC than I am. Paulina's work looks amazing. I'll have to figure out what we are going to do now because I was kinda banking on using the included photographer. But after being on this forum it looks like a lot of people bring their own!

We'll have to plan a meet up at the resort since we're there at the same time

Up until yesterday I was planning my wedding at Dreams Tulum, but then I met with my TA because I was still uncertain but loved Dreams resort, after staying in the one in Cabo...and she suggested PV and wow its so beautiful. I knew it was the place immediately!

I'm assuming the packages are the same, but has anyone had experience with the hair/salon? I'm a hair stylist, so to me hair is more important than the dress! haha

read the rest of this thread for more hair/salon info...it's been discussed several times.

also, are you bringing in your own photographer?
Thanks so much! Its amazing to have a community like this when planning a destination wedding!!

Our TA is pushing for people to book by May 12 for our Nov 3 date. She says the hotel is booking up for our week. So your TAs time line seems a little off. We did reserve a block of rooms, but didn't have to put anything down on the rooms.

We're married! Jamie
