I agree... well done. It would be useful to have a sticky post with the prices that different resorts charge for outside vendors... I have been looking into it and it seems to be all over the map.
See if I can come up with a compiled list once I make it down there to live.
Thanks again Tammy.

WHAT  they changed their policies? please explain and de-stress me!
my fiance and i want to get married at azul sensatori but this outside photographer thing is driving me nuts. we won a contest for free photography and signed a contract so we really can't budge with that, nor do we want to. Category Archive for ‘Contests and Goodies’ at Rowell Photography
we are story number 1.

Your photographer can photograph your wedding at Azul for a $500 fee or 3 night stay for the photographer.
Congratulations on winning the contest!

jenni | they were worse for a while. at one point you had to pay the $500 fee even if the photographer was booked at the resort

For a while they upped it to 3 night s stay AND $500 ....
now they are honoring the origional $500 OR 3 night stay.
PLUS they are now offering more photographers to choose from INCLUDED with the package where you don't have to pay extra. One of those people are even Claudia Rodregiez who is incredible.

Shounds like she charges $900 more so it's even worse than the $500 fee. so they are still charging the fee, it's probably just her paying it.

jenni | Hahaha....I haven't decided on anything really. I go back and forth about dj vs ipod just about everyday. And then there's the decision about spending the big bucks for a mariachi.
I have 8 months....plenty of time right?
Morgan, that is super crappy about Claudia photo. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that. I wonder if for a $5000 fee they'd allow Del Sol ?  | |

Please also remember the Del Sol photography is still banned. I really appreciated this thread because we have to book the hotel before we book Del Sol. Had I not read this I never would have known. I would have been devastated if we had booked the resort and then found out about the ban. Being a new bride on here I can only imagine this happening to other new brides just joining the forum.
