Las Caletas Couples ~ POST HERE!!! (**All LC Brides...PLEASE READ 1st post, red text)

I was there in June for a tour, and there was a steamer in the bridal suite. I'm sure other gals who've actually been married there can offer advice on what else you can/can't find in the suite on your big day!

Has anyone heard from the new WC??

I haven't, I'm hoping I do soon.

Me neither.  Annie said we would hear from her by the end of the summer, so hopefully soon.

Also...for anyone that was married (or is going to be) in December/January (our wedding will be Dec 29th, 2012) did you have time for pictures after the wedding ceremony? I am worried if we will have enough time for pics before it is completely dark.

 

Thanks!

I'm sure the other brides could lend more detailed info, but we're getting married in November and when I asked Annie about this, she said there would be a very short amount of time after the ceremony for pictures (approx. 20 mins).  I assume in late December you may have even less.  She suggested we to a "first look" photo shoot before the ceremony, but we're don't want to abandon the tradition of not seeing the bride until  I walk down the aisle.  She did say that if you get married on a Sunday, you have more freedom with time and can add the extra hour to the beginning of the day rather than at the end.  Or maybe do a "Trash the Dress" photo shoot the next day when you will have no time constraints.  Just a few things to think about.  Hope this helps.

I'm keeping everything super simple and just using the candles an table runner they include in the package.   I might add a few rose peddles but thats it.  

Not sure about guestbook yet...if we get engagement photos done then maybe make a book out of those and have guests sign next to the pictures.

I've read that some of the brides just grabbed postcards when they got there, scattered them along the table and had everyone sign a different one.  I thought that was a really cute idea to keep with the destination wedding theme.

Has anyone heard from the new coordinator yet?  I think we will be one of the last couples emailed because our date is far out, but we had plans to meet Annie and do our site visit in November, so would like to contact the new coordinator to set-up an appointment ASAP.

We are definitely getting the fire dancers, but wondering how many brides have opted for the drummers, too?  Is it worth the extra $150?  What to they use for music if you don't get the drummers?
