thanx for the helpful info about the photographs and how they come on a CD. I dont know why I didnt realize this. I sort of still dont understand it because if Adventure photos isnt actually printing the pics why dont they just burn all of the pictures they took onto a CD for us? Why even make us choose which photos when they are just going onto a CD? They already put them on the computer for us to choose from, so it actually would cost them NOTHING to put them all on a CD. lol i dont know this is just a silly thing to me... then from there we could choose what to get printed and so forth.

Make sure you post your highlight video when you get it!!  It took Mike like a month to send me mine!  I was so impatient and didn't have it for my at home reception which was such a bummer... but it was awesome so it worked out!  

 

He also sent me a blue ray and 3 dvds and the external hard drive with the footage, which I still have yet to get working on my Mac.  But it is very awesome to have!

Hi Jendev!

Hey ladies,

We are looking in to having our wedding at dreams or moon palace with around 100 people. My biggest problem is I can't get any info for that many people... we want a beach wedding and want to have a reception (dinner all together even at one of their restaurants) as well. I am hearing that there is an extra cost for the reception including a per plate price. Does anyone know if that was true, all inclusive doesn't include that type of deal? Secondly, most of these wedding packages include amenities for 20 guests etc, is there extra charges for chairs/ set up if you have 100 plus?

 

Thanks

 

Kimberly

It's going! Lol.. I still don't have a for sure count on how many ppl we have coming but I ordered my invites, reserved the dj and and Anel and made my hair/makeup appointments, picked our menu and got my dress... That's where I'm at now! How about you?

[emmyss]

Good job!

 

I still have to reserve the DJ...Which DJ are you going with?

 

Also, which package did you decide on?

I totally agree with you.  I had this conversation with Anel about getting all the pictures on a CD for a flat fee.  She told me it's $15 additional per digital photo not in the package.  If i get all the pictures they can possibly work out a deal.  She said it is cheaper for them to print it, which is hard to believe.  Basically in my opinion we are paying for the copyright to print the pictures on our own, that's what the charge is for.  I took pictures of my newborn over a year ago and they told me this, so I figured all photographers use the same reasoning.

I emailed Mauricio so I'm not sure if its him or somebody that works w him? But he's who I was in contact with. We chose the ultimate package.

[emmyss]

we also went with the ultimate wedding package :-)

 

Have you decided where the ceremony and reception will be?

Hey Savs, I was just looking through your pictures again!  Can you tell me if the resort provided the card holders you used on your tables, like the one in this picture, holding the "reserved sign":  

 

 

 

We were going to do frames for a few things like this, but I feel like we're bringing so much stuff with us at this point that I will probably just print the signs off and use the holders, if possible.  Did you print your cards yourself?  Are they 5 x 7"?    

[loripanori]

Also, if you did do them yourself, do you know what font you used?  Or maybe it's actual calligraphy, it looks great either way!
