  1. Hi Ladies! It sounds like everyone has made a decision about their DJ, but I wanted to throw in my two cents! : ) I just got married at Excellence Playa Mujeres and used DJ Doremixx (Ivan) for our reception and was ELATED! He was amazing!!! I was super stressed at the thought of a DJ in another country being so responsible for the outcome of our reception, but he completely exceeded all expectations!!! His English is great, so definitely don't worry about the introductions! We gave him a list of 4 songs that we definitely wanted him to play and he took care of the rest and played amazing stuff that kept EVERYONE on the dance floor!!! He's incredibly professional and came out to meet with us at the resort the day before to tie up any loose ends and put us at ease. He is definitely the DJ to choose in the area!!!
  2. I also used Ivan from DJ Doremixx and was INCREDIBLY pleased!!! He was super professional from the first email and then did the most amazing job at our reception at Excellence Playa Mujeres! He is DEFINITELY the DJ to hire!!!
  3. Hi Ladies!!! We're back from the wedding and honeymoon and everything was PERFECT!!! I mean it! I had gotten SO stressed for the month or so before we left for EPM! I just didn't think I had done enough to prepare, knew I'd get down there and realize I forgot something super important or that Yamina would somehow let me down... NONE of that happened!!! The week and the actual wedding day were BEYOND PERFECT!!! None of you have anything to worry about... I assure you! Once you get there, Yamina is a dream to work with! She makes sure that you're happy with everything and that you feel comfortable with all decisions made, etc. She also wants to bug you as little as possible so that you can enjoy being on vacation with your family and friends! I still have no idea how to add pictures, etc. on to my posts, so I apologize for that, but I can add a link to my photographer's website when they let me know that my pictures are ready for viewing! Just a few details about my wedding... We ended up having 44 total (including my now husband and I) people come for the wedding. We wanted to have a gathering the night before (even though we weren't doing a true "Rehearsal"), so we had a "Welcome Dinner" on the Spice Terrace the night before the wedding. It was AWESOME! Honestly, this was the thing I was most worried about... there were just so many unknowns. However, Yamina pulled it all together and it was a complete success!!! We brought down a slideshow to show everyone and Yamina arranged for everything for that. The decor, centerpieces, food, drinks, service, etc. were just incredible!!! I had my hair and make-up done in the spa and Myra (that's not how she spells it, I just blanked on that) was AWESOME! She spent SO much time making sure that it was just perfect! SO much better than I imagined!!! We brought down our own photographers since we had worked with them and trusted them completely! Yamina and the resort were great working with them as well! The ceremony was on the beach and was just beautiful! Our cocktail hour was at the X-Lounge on the beach and we used the mariachi band... HUGE hit! They put on quite a show!!! Our reception was just so much more perfect than I EVER could have imagined!!! The dinner was SOOO good... SOOO good! And, the service was second to none! Edgar managed our reception and couldn't have been better!!! He's just so great! : ) Yamina had the decorations and centerpieces even better than the pictures I sent her... it was beautiful! We used DJ Doremixx and I understand from Yamina that they are no longer accepting outside vendors for the DJ's, but he was beyond incredible!!! We were SO sad when the reception ended!!! It was just literally perfect! Please let me know if anyone has questions or anything b/c I know it can get stressful not knowing what to expect, etc. Also, like I said, once my photographers puts up our pictures, I'll include a link so that you guys can view those as well! Good luck with all of the planning and don't stress! It will be fantastic! : )
  4. YOU HAVE TO HIRE IVAN/DJ DOREMIXX FOR YOUR WEDDING!!! My (new) husband and I got married at Excellence Playa Mujeres on March 5th and had the most incredible wedding we could have ever imagined! SO much of that was due to the choice we made hiring Ivan for our Reception! Ivan was so great to work with leading up to the wedding and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. He is incredibly professional and prompt and is definitely a great businessman. He met with us the day before the wedding at our resort to ease our minds and get any last minute information for our expectations, etc. We gave him a list of 4 songs to play... THAT'S IT! (The First Dance, Father/Daughter dance, Mother/Son dance and the Last Dance.) Ivan read the crowd at our reception perfectly... he played younger dance songs when it was primarily us and our friends on the dance floor and incorporated great songs from our parents generation (that we also loved) when they joined us on the dance floor! The playlist was just perfect!!! Everyone raved about Ivan and the dance floor was packed! We were so sad when the reception ended! Ivan also brings fun things to hand out during the reception! I read this on a few reviews and his website, and I have to admit... I was a little skeptical; however, they were PERFECT!!! The balloons were SUCH a huge hit and ended up also saving us when our sparklers (for our exit) didn't come in! I can't say enough about how great Ivan/DJ Doremixx is! You will DEFINITELY not be disappointed if/when you book them for your wedding!!!
  5. I'm getting married March 5th at Excellence Playa Mujeres! It's getting close ladies!!! I feel like I'm forgetting all kinds of necessary and important things, but I'm almost too excited to care! : )
  6. Hi Ladies! I'm only THIRTY days away from my EPM wedding!!! It's coming SO fast! : ) I can't wait to be down there! We'll be using DJ Dorremix and have had a great experience with him so far! He's been really responsive to emails and has sent over great recommendations and song lists! Any last many tips from anyone!? : )
  7. Jen, It was great seeing your pictures, etc.! I'm SO excited about your planning blog... let us know as soon as you get it finished! My wedding is in FIFTY-ONE DAYS!!! I'm sort-of starting to freak out and feel that I've missed lots of important planning details... let's hope not! : ) Also, I am apparently more technologically challenged than I realized... can someone please tell me how to add a picture, etc. to my messages!?
  8. Hi Ladies! I am hoping to include beach towels in our wedding colors for the OOC bags, but I'm having trouble finding them for a decent price. Did anyone else do towels!?
  9. Hi EPM Brides! I'm new to the forum and wanted to introduce myself! I've read through all of the posts and have gotten a lot of great information! My fiance and I are getting married at EPM on March 5, 2010, so I don't have a whole lot of planning time!!! I am looking to send out a save the date/informational packet in the next week or two and would LOVE to have some insight on the letter to include. I saw that several of you wrote one, but since I'm new to the forum, I can't open them. Will you guys email me your letters? My email address is rah_3@yahoo.com Can't wait to begin discussing all of the details!!! Also, how do I add a picture!?
