thanks!

My fiance and I are getting married in May in PV, and I would like to have customized sunglasses in the guests welcome bags! I really like the 80's style, neon colored ones! Has anyone ordered these online, and if so, where did you get the best price? Thanks!!

Well, I am SUPER excited to get them both for my welcome reception and the begining of the ceremony!! Any ideas of what they could play as I walk down the isle??

kball21, Did you sign a contract with him? I am planning on booking him for our cocktail hour and welcome reception in May. Also, did he ask for a deposit? Thanks!

Thanks so much! I am going to shoot him an email right now

Does anyone know if you can get a smaller Mariachi (of 3 or 4)? We would like to hire a group for our welcome reception (when the guests arrive at Casa Velas), and to play before our ceremony. Thoughts?

Kim- Thank you so much for responding! They will let us bring outside vendors in, but we are trying to save some money and not hire an outside wedding planner. We have hired our DJ (seems nice, speaks English) and Brenda made some suggestions for the florist. The rehearsal dinner will be at the restaurant at Casa Velas, and we are having a pool party at Velas Vallarta (some of our guest will have small children) along with a snorkeling trip for our guests during their stay. Â It makes me feel better that your cocktail party looked good! They are planning a welcome reception for our guests the night they arrive. Â Do you have any other advise when it comes to Casa Velas? Anything you would have done differently or added? Â Thanks again! Keri

My fiance and I are getting married on May 20, 2011 at Casa Velas in Puerto Vallarta. We went to visit last month, and LOVED the all inclusive hotel, and the fact that it had a "boutique" atmosphere (with only 80 rooms, and adults only - perfect!). I was wondering if anyone else out there has been married at Casa Velas and what advice you can give me??! We are also looking for suggestions for a florist - and more importantly, a DJ. Thanks!! - Keri

Kim - Your pictures are amazing! Brenda (wedding planner at Casa Velas) actually showed me some of your pics when we met with her. How do you feel Casa Velas will do with planning our wedding without using an outside team? We will consult a florist and DJ (which ones did you use?) from an outside vendor, but as for the set up of the wedding site, we were going to rely on Brenda and the casa velas team. Good idea or no? Thanks!

Hi! I'm a newbie - planning a wedding May 20, 2011 at Casa Velas in Puerto Vallarta! Anyone have suggestions for florist or DJ?
