Yay! I made it. I went through all 113 pages and put together a FAQs. Please feel free to add or take away from what I have done. I could have misquoted or misrepresented something so please correct it. But this is just a start so feel free to contribute!

 

 

Frequently Asked Questions.doc

Ok here comes (maybe) a dumb question-

When confirming your guest count, should I include my photog so she can get a meal? Do we pay the full price for vendors?

I really want to have hot pink or pink (just not pale) chair sashes for the ceremony. I think it will add a pop of colour. I've already requested them and they are in my contract. Now that my wedding is getting closer, I'm second guessing my decision. Do you think they will take away from the natural beauty of Las Caletas. I'm not having a chuppa, just the included arch. I would not have the chair sashes for the dinner chairs.

Rachel - I believe Kelly said we should include our photographer and their assistant, if applicable. That might've just been for the boat ride. Not 100% sure. Sorry, I guess that doesn't help much. lol

We leave ONE WEEK FROM TODAY!!!!!!!!!

 

 

Our wedding is two days after yours, Roxie... and I don't know about you but I am having a VERY hard time being productive at work! Mentally, I am already in PV!!! I can't wait.

 

We got lucky... we shipped a big box of stuff a few weeks ago but since we live in Mexico it only cost about $100... I can't imagine what it would have cost to ship internationally. I agree with the idea that you should ask a few guests to throw some stuff into their bags, if you can!

 

Take care and maybe we'll see you there, Roxie!

 

And I PROMISE... there will be details, details, details and GAZILLIONS of photos as soon as we get back!

BTW - Any photo requests? I was going to try to take more of the bridal suite because I know people wanted to see more of it. Anything else that you want me to try to catch for you?

THIS NEWBIE IS NO LONGER UNDECIDED

 

Hello! First, I'm still overwhelmed by the welcome I got to this forum! So once again, thank you!

 

Second, I heard back from Kelley at LC!!! My FI loved everything I showed him about the place so thankfully, Jamy, no thumb-breaking necessary! LOL! But I might have gone there if necessary... No, he immediately agreed that pictures conveyed how private and intimate the setting is, and I told him about all the positive things everyone here has to say about the WC...

 

I think I actually yelped out loud when I saw Kelley's email yesterday! That's when I realized I had gone from a maybe to a definitely, yes...this is where I want to get married! No doubt!

 

Of course, I'm now waiting to get my mother feedback. Poor thing, I think I just sent her four emails worth of information and about 25 different links....I know that it's my wedding and not hers, and no where in this process so far has she tried to tell me at all what to do (in fact, I think secretly she's disappointed with the entire DW thing altogether but will NEVER say it)...but her opinion matters to me, I want her to love it too...because it will be some much more fun planning this if she's as excited and pumped as I am...

Hey gals,

 

Thanks for all the positive comments on the review. Sarah, I am so excited for you to leave in a day... I wish I was going back and doing it all over again. Leigh Miller, our photographer, put together a slideshow with some of the pictures from the wedding. She did an amazing, amazing job at the wedding, she is just so talented. If you would like to see the slideshow, you can go to his link:
