Ocean Turquesa & Coral Brides?

Sooo excited fro the up-coming brides!!!

Just got a lengthy slideshow from our photographers (who were FABULOUS to work with). You can get a glimpse of our wedding at the link below.

We were married on the beach and had our recpetion in a private banquet hall

 

Amber & Rob

Hi Amber,

I just checked out your photos and they are incredible! Did you use the resort photographer or someone else?

Congrats on your Wedding & Thank you so much for sharing your pictures with us!

Whitney

Thanks! We decided to hire a photographer from outside the hotel...and I'm glad we did. We used Moments That Matter photography who live in Playa del Carmen but are Canadians. They were easy to work with and I felt that because so many people wouldn't be at our wedding I wanted photos that made them feel like they were there.

Are you planning on using the hotel photography shop? They had some nice photos they took around the pool, however I didn't see ay of their wedding work.

Happy planning,
Amber

hey Krystal

ah I'm loving that our weddings are so similar! we'll have to compare pics after!!

ok, so here's some of my pics of my dress and hair (as Whit asked! lol)

















SORRY for that being mega long!!! and I'm praying the pictures don't come out huge when I post this!

wow, your centrepieces sound gorgeous! have you got any pics to share?

haha my FI actually quite likes pink shirts etc anyway so I didn't have to fight on that one! plus he's in a grey suit so the grey and pink go really well with each other.

and oh yes, I wish I got to wear my BM's dress too!! it's gorgeous! damn it....

and I've put photos on my post to Krystal, but it was in response to you (I got confused!!) let me know what you think!

Hey Katie,

You look gorgeous! I love the detail on your dress! Hair and accessories look great too! Did you have your regular hair dresser do your hair so you can bring the photos to Mexico? I'm starting to think thats a great idea! Better than just printing pictures off the internet!

You seemed a little stressed last week because of everything you forgot to do... hope you got alot done on the weekend!

What day does your flight leave?

I don't have pictures of my centre pieces... I will have to get on that! I will definitely show you them when I do!

Whit

hey Whit...ah thank you chick I'm so pleased with it all, and I can't wait to have it all come together on the day.

Yeah I went to my normal hairdresser here in the UK as she knows my hair so well and what does and doesn't suit me and I basically gave her a few ideas I'd had/seen and she went from there! we took photos throughout the process in case they need to see how we got to the end result...now I just need to be organised and actually print them out! All the reviews I've read on OCT is that they don't speak great English (and I don't speak any spanish!!) but that they are great at recreating from photos. I would definitely recommend doing it - I feel so much better and felt like a proper princess having mine done.

oh yes, I was mega stressed last week! (didn't hide it that well then! lol) it all felt really close and there was still quite a few things to do, but we got most of them done this weekend so I feel much much better thank you all (haha 'all'!!) I've got left to do is sort out my clothes, wash them all and pack them! easy! hahaha (I am secretly really worrying about this but I did start last night so it's getting there)

we fly out on Sunday!!!!!!!!!!!! (2nd May)....I can't believe it's THIS WEEK!!! and we get married NEXT WEEK!!!!!!!!! arrrgggghhhhh

hey girls,

 

does anyone know how much a cab cost from the hotel into Cancun?

 

we're just trying to do some pricing up!!

 

thank you so much!

Katie, I LOVE your dress! BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!! The back is amazing!!!

I just had a nightmare with mine! I had picked it up 4 weeks ago after my final fitting/alterations, only to try it on yesterday and realize I've lost more inches from my chest!! you could see right down my dress!!!!!!!!!!!!! Literally! and it was a fluke I had even tried it on again!!!!! Thank goodness I did...I called my seamstress immediately and I went back in last night to try it on for her and she'll have it done by the weekend she said{hopefully}! And on top of that our car just died.....right when I have a million things to do!! lol But I just keep telling myself I'll be in Mexico in a week and a half Trying to stay calm...but definitely excited!!!

And SO excited for you!!!!! I can't believe you leave on sunday! And I can't believe I leave a week from friday!!! On your wedding day! <3 so excited!

One question...have you heard from Ana lately? I've been waiting for a response for about 4 weeks! I even sent another email! Starting to worry a bit because we are trying to change the time of our wedding and need to know if its possible! I know she's busy...just wondering if you've had any luck hearing from her?
-Krystal

ah thanks Krystal I wasn't really 100% happy with it until my final final fitting and then I just thought it was perfect

well, look on the positive side - at least you tried it on, and your seamstress can fix it for you, so on the day, your guests will be none-the-wiser! good luck with it, but I have no doubts it will all work out for you perfectly too.

and the car is a bummer, but you will be fine can someone lend you there car to do your running around in, even if it's just for a couple of days?

what time do you land in Cancun? our ceremony is at 4pm....if you're there in time, or any time after that, feel free to pop along and say hi! would be great to meet you

OMG - FI has been going insane about us not having heard from Ana for so long! I too sent an email about 3 weeks ago and didn't have a response so last week I sent it again (thinking maybe it hadn't got through to her) but I've had no response. and I have read receipts on my emails and she's not read either of them. FI is mega stressing me out with this. he's even suggested calling the hotel to find out what's happened, but it would probably cost us the price of our wedding to do that from over here!!

what's your next plan of action? I really need to hear from her before we go or FI might self-destruct, or I might end up killing him! whichever comes first lol

but I definitely think it's gone past the stage of being polite and waiting for an answer. I mean, she could have left, or be off sick and no-ones picked up her work - I'm not blaming her until I know why we haven't heard back as she could be sick or something. but I just need to know from someone at the hotel that she's still there and everything is ok for our wedding!! HELP!!!
