Hi Everyone!  I am getting married on 7/10/15 in Iberostar Rose Hall Suites!  I am just now starting to think about wedding invitations, photographers, videographers, florists, and the like.  I did send out my save the dates though (yay) and I found my dress and the bridesmaid dresses.  I look forward to hearing everyone's progress as they plan their weddings this year!

Hi, new to this site and I'm planning a wedding for June 2015 (very short planning period). Some of you are booking outside photographers but my contract says I can't. How are you getting around that? I just signed my contract this week. I'm nervous about using digipix..... They don't have much to display on their website. Does anyone know if they're any good?

Also, does anyone have a copy of the final checklist? I just want to know what I should be thinking about. I'm having a very small wedding - 15 people max. I'm wanting to book all of our dinner reservations before going. According to the hotel website, you get 4 dinner reservations for a seven night stay. Does anyone know if the reception dinner is included in that four? Thanks for all of your posts.... It has been so helpful since Loreto is horrible at communication.

 

I've seen other brides post about doing wish lanterns and I'd love to do that. Has anyone asked if this is still okay? Thanks!

Hi Beachlight - Here are some answers to your questions. 

 

You CAN bring an outside photographer, but a vendor fee does apply. Many, many photographers will cover the vendor fee for you. I'm using Stacey Clarke and she covers the vendor fee. I have not heard many good things about DigiPix and I understand their prices aren't even very good for what you get. So you should definitely explore. My top 3 were Stacey Clarke, WPAJ/Sungold, and Misha Earle. 

 

You will not be able to make your dinner reservations ahead of time. You will be asked to select restaurants for your reception dinner (and a rehearsal dinner if you have one) on your final details sheet, but I don't think they confirm those with you until a couple weeks before. The rehearsal dinner would count as one of the 4 a la cart reservations, but the wedding dinner won't. With a group of 15 your dinner will be "semi-private" at one of the restaurants. You have to have 40 people to have a private dinner.

 

I highly recommending sending one email to the wedding coordinators with multiple questions. I've gotten quick replies - but they literally have weddings EVERY day so they are very busy ladies! I wouldn't worry. I've never heard a single bride have anything even remotely negative to say about their experience with the wedding coordinators once they got closer to their day. They just have to prioritize!

 

On wish lanterns, you can do them if they are the environmentally friendly/biodegradable kind. However, I've seen a majority of brides say they had trouble lighting them because of the wind on the beach and they didn't work. Others have been able to do it successfully. So just know it would be a risk!

Thank you both so much for all the information! I'm glad to hear the communication with the wedding coordinators gets better. Once you've booked, who is that you communicate with? Is it still Loreto?

 

Beckys98: since you're getting married the same month I am, what restaurants have you chosen for your rehearsal and reception dinners and why? I would love to do the steakhouse on the beach, I'm sure it's a gorgeous sunset, but I'm worried about the casual dress code and atmosphere being a little too casual. We have such a small wedding party so there will be many other hotel guest there with us. Have you asked the wedding planners what exactly they mean by semi-private?

Hi @@Beachlight - We are hoping to do the Steakhouse for our rehearsal dinner. I didn't want to do it for our wedding because it is outdoor and I'm really paranoid about being TOO hot, sweaty and uncomfortable in my dress. I definitely want the air conditioning for the reception. But I'm not so worried for the rehearsal dinner. I think the only restaurant that is more formal than the others is Calabash; but I think they are all "nice" and you're group should be fine. 

 

For a private reception they tell you which restaurant based on the size of your group. We should be at Calabash since we'll be around 70, which is what I want anyway. I feel like the decor there is neutral enough that any decor we bring won't look odd. The Mediterranean is kind of nautical looking and the Mexican is, well, Mexican. I'd really be fine with any of them (except steakhouse) though!

 

From what other brides have said, they try not to seat other guests around you for a semi-private dinner, but basically your group is just sitting together in one section of the restaurant. Most have said they were by themselves until the end of their meal (assuming they started dinner at 6:30) and have said that they didn't even notice the other guests in the restaurant!

 

As far as coordinators, I've heard from both Nicole and Simone. Simone just sent me my final details sheet this week!

I'm getting married at the Suites in July of this year. I went their last October, and absolutely loved it. I am in the process of hiring outside hair and makeup from In Your Face Beauty Bar. I love what I see on their website www.inyourfacebeautybarjm.com. I'm having a hard time deciding which photographer to choose though. I absolutely love Dean Clarke. My fiancé is hell bent on Dwayne Watkins, whose work is gorgeous. Who are you guys using?

We looked at Dwayne Watkins but he was out of my budget! My top 3 were Misha Earle, WPAJ, and Stacey Clarke - and we decided on Stacey Clarke. Her package pricing was excellent and I liked the tropical, bright feel her photos had. Some of the others were a little more vintage or dramatic in their editing style, and I really want to make sure the photos look beachy and light.

 

Stacey covers the vendor fee and the Monday after our wedding she is going to take us off the resort to get some additional pictures - my fiance is Jamaican so we really want some photos where you can tell we are there!

 

Does Your Face Beauty do both hair and makeup? I've pretty much decided on the spa to avoid paying a vendor fee, but I love the idea of getting my hair and make up done in my room to avoid the heat as much as possible. And I'd love airbrush make up...

Hey Ladies! Quick Tip especially for guests who can't attend, my fiance and I figured out how to live stream the wedding via YouTube for free minus the cost of a hotspot rental and live stream camera.  I will let you all know how exactly it turns out when I return in April.

    • Do you have a wedding coming up this year and want to be the best dressed? You’re in the right place. We’re here with our best wedding guest styling tips to help you find the perfect fit for the occasion, from fitting in with the venue to your shoe choice and everything in between!  Is There A Dress Code? The first question to ask yourself when choosing your wedding guest dresses this season is whether there is a dress code. If there is a dress code on the invitation or passed on to you by the bride or groom, then it’s quite clear what you need to do, which is follow it! Even if the dress code seems quite specific or maybe even a bit annoying (I mean, who wants everyone to wear purple to their wedding?!), it’s what the couple wants for their day, and the last thing you want to do is disrupt their day or how they pictured it with your outfit. So, be respectful of the couple’s wishes when it comes to a dress code, as it could be an important wedding detail for them and it might also help you narrow down your choices when it comes to deciding what to wear! Where’s The Venue?  If there’s no dress code, then don’t worry; we’ve got you covered. Start by thinking about where the venue is. This can help you decide the kind of dress you might want to wear, so pay close attention. Often, depending on the venue, it’s pretty obvious what kind of outfit you’d wear, for example, a floaty bright dress for a beach wedding or a more formal cocktail dress for a wedding at a fancy hotel. If it’s not fully obvious what you might wear to a particular venue, then go with something that makes you feel great and comfortable and seems fitting, or, of course, have a chat with friends who are going to get a vibe!  Pick Your Colour Scheme Now that you know the kind of style you’re going for, pick your colour scheme. Of course, we’re avoiding white here (unless indicated on the dress code), and another good tip is to have a look at the main colours on the invite and avoid those where possible. They usually show the colour scheme for the whole wedding, likely including the bridesmaid dresses. It’s always a bit awkward blending in with the bridesmaids at a wedding, so this is a good tip. From here, the world is your oyster! Get some inspiration from other people’s wedding looks to help if you're stuck; otherwise, just have a bit of a look around to see what you like. We love yellow, orange, pink or blue for a wedding, especially in the summer.    Think About Your Shoes Once you’ve got your dress or outfit in mind, it’s time to think about your shoes. Back to the venue, have a think about what you’re going to be comfortable in. If you’re headed to the beach, flat sandals are a sensible choice, or you could go for something slightly less comfortable if you know you’ll be on flat surfaces all day! You can even get transferable heels these days, so you can take a flat attachment in your bag and swap them out for the heels when you want to start dancing the night away. Skip anything super casual (we hope that trainers are a given) and you should be good to go.  Don’t Forget Your Hair and Accessories!  Considering your hair and accessories properly could be what brings your outfit to life, so don’t leave them to the last minute! With your hair, think about the top of your outfit and how much detail there is. If you want to let that shine, go for a lovely up-do (we love an up-do for a wedding as we tend to wear them less, so it feels a bit more special). If the top of your dress is more simple, you can do whatever you want hair-wise. The same goes for your accessories, a more simple dress would look stunning with statement jewellery, or if your dress has lots of embellishments or detail, then more simple accessories would be ideal.
