Ok Ladies! I know there are at least 4 of you on here in addition to myself - Let's get this thread going again so we can share information.
Here is the amenities list that Perla sent me!

Hi! Our wedding is November 27 and we cannot wait! I couldn't open the attachment you posted about photography - We were going to fly our own - it works out to about $3500 for the one photog - ttd, day of wedding, rehearsal dinner, engagement shoot at home etc. which is a pretty good deal!
The photog on the site is Miguel Cantarelli - I think if you do a search he has been discussed here on other threads!

yes he is the manager at mexicanweddingphotos.com..i have not yet seen threads about him..were they good or bad?
$3500 is a great deal, but wont you pay for the flight and hotel of your FG?
are you having you wedding on the beach or gazebo? a lot of people?
we have only few couples-friends travelling with us...more of a small ceremony for us! and i really want some nice photos, i am thinking to take their photographer - to feel safe...but i was not thrilled with his pics on their website..

Yeah he is giving us his base rate for less than half plus travel which is about $3500 - $4000.
We are getting married on the beach and then having a private reception on the Tequila Terrace. We are expecting about 40 ppl and have 14 booked already.
You could always one of the photogs down there if you are okay with spending a little money - I know that there are a ton on this thread that have done/will do weddings there.

Hi ladies! FI and I are still working out the details, but hopefully all will be set this week and we'll be getting married on August 9 at the Paradisus.
I'm attaching their menus that Melissa sent me last week.
I've got the actual brochure as well, but it's a big file, so I'm going to have to break it up before I can attach.

Okay, here is the "Romance by Paradisus Fact Sheet" I had to break it up into 3 docs to get it to comply with the size requirements.

Is anyone doing a package? We just put the deposit down because we couldn't decide on a package and Perla said we could change over at any time - I really wonder how much cheaper it will be!

FI and I will use a package - the very basic one as it includes the gazebo and the officiant. We priced it out and for our 40+ guests, we ended up saving about $450. Not a huge amount, but every penny...
