i with you, Lisa! I am not able to host multiple events for my guests. I'd love to, but unfortuneatly its not in my budget

I am looking forward to hear how you private event at the buffett goes. That might be the route I take for the Welcome Dinner/Rehearsal Dinner.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a photographer?  I already confirmed with Ivan Luckie that he is booked for my date  :  (

Lisa, Ivan Luckie did give me a another name but I did not like his recommendations work.  I like Sasha's work too but not thrilled if you did not get responses -not a good sign.  I will keep looking.  thanks for the help.  btw, wedding is 2/21/11

We will probably have a welcome dinner in the buffet restaurant. No rehearsal dinner for us, not sure we will have a wedding party at all and it is not Swedish custom to do a rehearsal.

Well I just got bad news from Ana this week.  Our wedding is May 6th, so most of our guests/wedding party are coming the 5th through the 8th or the 9th.  Well since the 5th is cinco de mayo, Ana is not working the holiday, so we can not do a rehearsal.  And our guests already booked and we cant ask them to come earlier and pay extra days.  So i guess no rehearsal for us

I am hoping the resort is doing some kind of celebration for cinco de mayo though so at least we can have some entertainment.

We weren't planning on having a rehearsal ourselves...just a welcome dinner (which you do not need the wedding coordinator for). My friend who go married in the Riviera Maya did not have a rehearsal and it all went very smoothly...the wc just told everyone when to go and what to do and it worked out just fine.

Thanks for the feedback ladies!  I'm leaning towards combining the two events....but I do still have 8 months to change my mind

Can anyone email me the Wedding Packet/Brochure that has been talked about?  email me at [email protected]

 

Thanks,

Meg

Erin, that sounds really weird. My first date was May 5th (I changed it to the 4th later) and there were already another wedding that day. So if she is not there than Pilar has to be there. However, we are not doing the rehearsal either just a welcome dinner, and we will be there to celebrate Cinco de Mayo with you

Hey Now Brides!

Any of you had any experience with 'Sparklers' at the Now Jade resort?!?! I know I can not bring them with me or transport any into Mexico, but was curious if any of you had found some in Mexico or coordinated them with your WC? Interested in what you might have paid.

THANKS!

Robin
