Glad im not the only one who did that . I panic when i saw the $6392.80 on the receipt!  I emailed Evangelina straight away, i was relieved when she told me it was in pesos

Silly mistake on my part I guess, but figured I would share to spare someone else from the same misunderstanding.

Good questions...

 

Im having a legal ceremony so i dont want to she my partner till the ceremony. Hopefully the hotel has a room available for him the night before the wedding.

I havent thought about what time i should getting ready but it will be useful to see what everyone else is doing

Im going to purchase my dress online. Ive been trying on dresses in shops so i know what Style, Fabric and Colour i want.

www.goldwo.com are really good.They have sent me samples of the fabric they will be using and they will personalise a dress to how you want it

Thats part of the reason I wanted a destination wedding... If I had a wedding here in NY Id totally do it up, and not blink an eye on spend a grand on my dress (ok, maybe I would) .... But this is the beach, and its tropical... I just cant see spending sooo much money it.

 

Anyone else have any thoughts on this? Has anyone purchased their dress online?

Hello Robyn,

 

Welcome to the forum!!

 

In our personal experience, we would recommend you to have your ceremony start time be 1.5 hours prior to sunset.  This will give you great light for your ceremony, and even better sunset light for your beach portraits!! During this time of the year, our ceremonies typically begin between 5:30 - 6:00 PM. 

 

Here are a few pictures of your location, hope you enjoy them:

Hi Mariah! Amazing photos, loved your colors. Question on the frame for the sand, did you bring that? If so where did you find a frame you were able to pour sand into? I am getting married there in 3 weeks and would love to do this! Congrats again.
