The concrete worked perfect. It's funny...on the day of you will NEVER even remember all of these little things you think and obsess about before.

I never even saw my ceremony flowers and am waiting to see the pictures of them! The cake? A 30-second event that absoultely no one noticed or even ate except my four year old nephew who helped himself!

Keep the questions coming. I'd like to do a full review- is there a format to use?

So glad to see that everything went so well! Looked really beautiful :)

I was wondering how people pay for the wedding. I would normally want to pay with credit card, but have heard that there are extra fees when charging things internationally, so I'm looking for a way to get around this. I was thinking travellers checks maybe? What did you all do?

Not 100% sure on this, but I think Capital One cards don't charge you a conversion fee, in which case maybe you can just charge everything to the Capital One card?

Your pictures were great! You looked beautiful! I have a few questions for you:

1. Where did you get your centerpieces? I really like them.

2. It looks like your reception was at oceana, is that right?

3. Did you bring the hanging string lanterns or did Dreams provide those?

4. Did you use an outside vendor for your cake or did you use Dreams?

5. Did you hire a DJ in Cabo? If so, who did you use?

Thank you so much in advance!

Hi again! Here are some answers:

1. Where did you get your centerpieces? I really like them.

Colin and I designed the centerpieces ourselves at home, took a picture, and Yesica recreated them for the wedding. They were only $25 each.

2. It looks like your reception was at oceana, is that right?

The reception was behind the oceana restaurant on the pool terrace. Very cool location b/c it is one of the more private ones a the resort.

3. Did you bring the hanging string lanterns or did Dreams provide
those?

Dreams provided and setup the lanterns for $180 USD

4. Did you use an outside vendor for your cake or did you use Dreams?

No one touched the cake except when Colin and I smashed it in each other's faces. We used the Dreams cake included in the Dreams of love package.
5. Did you hire a DJ in Cabo? If so, who did you use?

DJ Ricardo- the best!!!

Hope this helps.

Oh yes and regarding payment, using cash or AMEX traveler's checks you will not be charged any sort of fee. Our guests used credit cards but we paid the master account with Traveler's checks and cash.
