Please let me know what do you think...
Warm Regards

So we are really screwed!! Has anyone downgraded on the packages? Maybe thats what we can do just go the level down to at least put that extra 1000$ or so towards a photog sad.gif it really sucks!! We pay so much money and its like i feel like we dont get anything but some white seat covers and a part of the lobby sad.gif Sorry im just frustrated!!
I hired a photographer out of Dallas. He gave me a great deal and he did my rehearsal dinner, wedding day and TTD. They credited the price of the photographer to the sound system for the ceremony and a few other things. So, I did have to come up with the extra money for my photographer BUT I got a lot more out of the money I would have been spending on the resort photographer. Contact Wedding and Portrait Photography by Jeremy Gilliam Dallas TX he can give you a price or maybe help you find someone that will fit in with your budget.

It seems as though we are all having the same problem with photographers. I have contacted several who are all booked for my wedding date. My opinion is that Claudia's photographs are less than acceptable...especially for how much she charges. But everyone has their own taste, maybe Im just being too picky. (Rightfully so if I am paying thousands of dollars for great memories.)

I did a lot of researching for photography and found a lot of deals that were better than those that you can hire down there. I just happened upon Jeremy and I loved his work.

I've booked Martha Roque I think thats it lol it was about $500 I think.

Do a search on here others have defo used her thats where I got her info from.

I'm now banking on the fact that these pics will be brill and the others i'm not so worried about lol I'd be happy if i had NO pics of the actual wedding cause no doubt FMIL and her chavy new hubby will get in on the act and i'm afraid they will crack his lense lol FMIL just boils my piss lol fryingpan.gif

Hey Kat..How does that work? Do you pay for his trip and then your Wedding package also?
I would think that would be more Expensive, right?
I'm just getting really aggravated about not hearing back from these photgraphers and I am open to all options!!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
