Chairs- that was my question and Anel said Chairs are $5 per chair over 25 chairs but that includes a chair for dinner and the wedding so you are paying $5 per person over 25 ppl for dinner and wedding itself (the set) not $10 like it makes it seem. Silly I know...they get at anything they can but they have to make money.
Also I am bringing my own centerpieces. They are outrageous if you want anything decent. I know you can rent vases for $5 or $10 per vase and they have luminaries but if u want flowers or anything it's very expensive. I have quite figured out what I am doing but I my colors are aqua and orange with starfish. I am making patterned table runners in those colors to brighten up the white. I also got maracas for the place settings in our wedding colors personalized and I orders Chinese lanterns. There's no where to hang them on the beach terrace so I am going to just lay them around the grass and maybe a few from the hut things. I also bought 15 yards of tulle to dress up the arch thing in color and got aqua hanging crystal strands from hobby lobby. lT cost me $12. To rent fabric from them is like $150-200. I don't know how to put pictures on here from my phone but if you follow me on instagram I've made a few wedding collages with pics from the resort terrace and my ideas decorations. My username is abaumbach247
Honestly Ill be able to get all my decor in one or two suitcases and to me it's way worth it! And they have no problem with you bringing. I have an aunt who plans on decorating for me so it worked out.
Let me know if you have more questions!
wow thank you so much for answering these questions for me!! I noticed how expensive the centerpieces are. I really like the manzanita branches, but not for what they are charging!! YIKES! I will bring my own lol! Those are such awesome colors! I am pretty sure I am going to do red and aqua! Did you get dimensions of the tables? I guess I can't really start on any of the until I know how many people are coming, huh? I absolutely love the crystal strands, and haven't seen how much they charge, but I am sure it's outrageous! Good idea with the tulle!! Would you just give it to them and have them hang it up? I am not understanding why their tulle is so expensive to RENT lol maybe it's lined with 24k gold! I really want to do the maracas too...basically your whole wedding sounds amazing, and don't be mad if I copy some things lol I am going to follow you, my name on there is "annunziata22" for a heads up! 
What about hanging them from those pole things? you can put on the beach. I am sure they charge an arm and a leg for those as well lol Hopefully I can win the lotto between then and now to afford everything I want 
You are lucky with your aunt, hopefully someone will help me lol maybe I can just borrow your aunt. LOL

We sent our payment off before booking our trip. It was not a problem.Yes it helps because then they link resort credits to you and that reservation number. Our TA sent Anel and Ramon that stuff for us. But if not I think you'd be fine sending it later. BTW make sure to send copies of front AND back of your CC and state ID. Congrats!!!

Can anyone give advice about how to choose dinner selections and appetizers? Anel, told me I could give my guest two choices, so I want to make sure I am picking the best options. Also, the appetizers do not have any descriptions. Previous brides what did you choose and what do you recommend or not recommend?

Be forewarned that if you give your guests an "option" that you have to have seating plans so the servers know what dinner goes where. We have our guests two choices with a veggie option. Did you look in the detailed wedding info book they have on their website? They have the app selections in there. We chose 3 we liked and 1 "safe" app for the picky eaters. If you go back a few pages some of the previous brdies talk about the food they had at their reception.
