Just one question if you dont mind me asking. I am wondering how much extra you paid to get all of your pictures on cd, and if this included the rights to them so you could make as many prints as possible.

Congrats on a very special day!
Thank you! and congrats on also choosing dreams. You will NOT be disappointed. We paid $350 for the cd. I think the cost depends on how many pictures they take? Im not sure. Also, Juan emailed me a letter stating that I do have the copyright rights to do whatever I want w. them, but I have not gone to have any printed yet. Im hoping the letter works, although it is just a word document with no signature or letterhead or anything? Weve been so darn busy since we got back, I have not had time to choose the extra pics I want to print, so many to choose from! :)

Congrats on your soon to be new addition. I have a yorkie and my friend has a shitzu very adorable dogs.


Im very happy to help you in any way I can! :)

Wow and I was thinking of doing pictures before the ceremony. I know it's super taboo but I really want to enjoy cocktail hour with the guests since we will have the mariachi trio as well. I hope I won't melt. I don't know how you ladies did it. You both don't look like you broke a sweat...lol!
Every month is hot, but August is SUPER HOT. My hubby had a towel w. him and was constantly wiping mine and my moh's sweat! lol.

Thank you! My mom has both yorkie and shih tsu- the yorkie used to be mine but I left it w. her when I moved- I didnt want her to leave her sister the shih tsu! :) I miss having a dog and cant wait to hopefully bring him home:)

Yeah - I shouldnt complain because we were in scorching hot mexico and we had nonstop sun everyday we were there! So, we were lucky!

I noticed that you have something on your signature about adopting animals... we are in the process of rescuing a shih tzu, we have the home visit sat! I hope we get the lil guy! :0)
Exactly, we had sun every single day, except the day we left, it poured!! :-)
I love sharing my "dreams Knowledge" now that I am back and have experienced it. It's true, so many people have helped us along that way, it feels good to be able to give back :-) Although I am not on hre nearly as often since the wedding :)

Good luck on adopting your little guy!! I am REALLY excited for you!!!
I am a shelter Volunteer and I love all of the dogs & cats there. It's a heartbreaking situtation, but the happiest of times is when they get adopted.
So good for you and I wish you lots of luck! :)

I just cant say enough about Dreams and I still want to be back there right now! haha. aw thanks! I actually have our lil guy right next to me now! He came home yesterday. I am a teacher and would like to consider volunteering at a shelter on my summers off. Its so sad to see and hear about these poor helpless animals lives- but you are right- so awesome when they get a chance to a new life.

Hey Carolina! Sorry I have not been on in awhile to answer your ?'s! The photographer that comes w. the package was there before the ceremony, during the ceremony of course, and about an hour after. They never seemed as though they were rushing us at all... If you want them to come early before and take pics while you are getting ready, i think you can request a price from them.

Mel - you looked absolutely gorgeous on your special day! Thank you so much for the great review. It will only help us future brides in our destination wedding journey. Can I ask what you did for your OOT bags? I'm trying to get some ideas.

    • 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!
