I've booked Marvin from Maya Floral. So far everything seems great!

Marvin is VERY willing to work with what you want, and if you don't see something that you like just tell him what you are looking for and he'll make samples and send you pictures. This is the bouquet that I am getting (with a white ribbon) and these are the centerpieces, but there will be a touch of blue instead of green. I am still waiting on the bridesmaid bouquet sample.

Hello beautiful ladies,

Just thought I would let you know that Groupon has a deal for the next 2 days on Pasminas! 3 for $24 in all kinds of colors. So for any of you brides out there that wanted to give away pashminas this is a great deal. I'm going to make sure to post this in May Brides so if you see this is there just act like you haven't seen this yet ; )

Best,

Melissa

Has anyone booked or use Audio Cancun for their wedding DJ? They have decent prices but I cannot find a review anywhere.

Those are beautiful! I take it he is pretty reasonable? Does he get back to you pretty quickly?

Has anyone had the photo package included in the Divine Package?  Were you happy? 

 

What outside photographers are you ladies using?  How long are they with you?  What is the price range?

Have any of the Brides from Now Sapphore not done dancing & just moved over to the club after dinner?

I just had them send me stuff. You know they actually aren't too bad!! In fact they are even pretty good. I asked if we couldl send them my thoughts on certain shots and they say "totally". We don't have a bunch of money to be just throwing into DJ's and photographers so I'm learning to be happy with what I have. If you are interested in seeing the links they sent me PM your email and I'll send them your way.

Hi Mya062813,

 

I used the resort photographer included in the package and I was very pleased!  I did upgrade the amount of photos after I saw them all because I could not decide....I really loved them. 

I personally did not want to spend extra money on vendor fees and the cost of an outside photographer.

Hi, I am getting married on July 5th, so we arent too far off from each other.  I used this site to get many recommendations.  I was sadly surprised to see that my Divine Package didnt include a lot of things I wanted.  The set ups are all basic with only white linens and such.  A good rule of thumb, anything you want in color will cost you.  Also, the photography package they offer is only 1 hour!  I am using that for my rehearsal dinner and hiring an outside photographer.  We also went with an outside DJ like many others.  I suggest you buy a calling card and call Anel in Mexico and go over everything with her on the phone.  That is how I got most of my answers!!  GOOD LUCK!!!

Good advice, CancunBride2013 - sounds like you have it all well in hand........wishing you the wonderful wedding of your Dreams! Cheers
