As an aside, I might end up killing my MOH, but I think I'll post a whole new blog about that.

Hey Pookie - I think the reason she tried to presuade you to have a friend read it is strictly for the fluency. I started compiling the ceremony I want our minister to read and that thought came across my mind. I know that some speak English well, however there is still that language barrier and some words might not come out as they are supposed to. I emailed my WC about sending the ceremony script and she has yet to reply. I have been emailing her since mid June and she has not replied - it is getting frustrating! We leave in 13 days and I want to ring their necks :o)

When are you getting married? I have about a year to go but am getting a lil frantic about it. =]

Melissa,

Del Sol Photography is stationed in Riviera Maya. Not only is their photography great but they are terriffic people to work with. Sol Tamargo even accompained my wedding planner to a resort to check it out, and I didn't even ask! Matt Adcock, her husband I believe, was also a tremendous help! We put down our deposit for May 24, 2009

The latest I heard on the vendor policy was that they have to be guests at the hotel and not liscensed to do business in Mexico. Anyone heard different?

I haven't heard about being licensed, all i heard is that they have to stay at the hotel as guests. But they are very strict about that.

Hi there, did you put a deposit for Del Sol for your wedding on May 24, 2009? I had contacted them and initially Matt said that they couldn't really do it because of the "no vendor policy" at the Moon. Then Del Sol, said they could do it, but we have still not heard back from them (I think they were on vacation), when did you put the deposit down?

They're going well, I dont know the name of anything, she keeps talking about the underhanded right turn and stuff, I'm lost with the names, but I know we're doing the Nighclub 2 step, does that sound familiar. I love it, she is making us move all around the room, lots of big steps and spins, just what I wanted. Our third class is today, we have two more to go after that, I think we're doing ok. I'm excited, thank you so much for asking. We told the dance instructor we have lots of room and showed her one of the pictures of the terrace and your diagram, so she is more comfortable with how much we need to move around.
