I already would have threatened him with bad reviews. Natalie if I were you I would write an e-mail telling him about his contractual obligations and telling him that he has left you no choice but to post a review on the forum warning other brides of his bad business practice. I guarantee you his overnights them to you! I'm telling you the squeaky wheel gets the oil. If you don't say anything then he will push you aside and work on the girls that do complain. That was my exact take on it from the start! I was being patient and just waiting, I didn't send him any emails asking where my pics where. But it is very disheartening when you see other brides who got married after you get their pictures! Then it makes you very frustrated and wonder why mine aren't getting done! That is when I sent him a email wondering when my pictures where getting done. It is one thing to wait and be patient for something like this, which I think I have especially since he told me 1 1/2 months in the first place in cabo. Not to mention our contract says 1 month and we are pass 3 months now. So the whole thing just really sucks!! I sent him an email today asking him why another bride's pics were done before mine so we will see.

But, now he's breaking contract and dealing with pregnant ladies emotions On a side note, I don't think I ever say your TTD slideshow. I'm watching it right now and i LOVE it! You two are a really beautiful and fun couple. Thanks so much! I love our TTD photos!

I thought about that too ann, but I mean I feel like he should do one wedding and finish it. I mean obviously he was working on mine and hers and I'm sure some others. I guess I was just hoping he went in order, that seems fair to me.

You don't deserve this, I can understand him going over the timeline a little bit but to give you your TTC pictures and forget about your wedding ones is just horrible. And to top it off post at least two other brides wedding pictures with wedding dates after yours........ Juan needs to step it up or else he's going to loose alot of business from bad reviews. Sometimes as great as his pictures will turn out, it's not worth the stress to deal with this kindof stuff. Add the fact that his prices are almost what you would pay to hire an outside (well not one from Mexico) photographer then I can see alot of business being lost if he doesn't start handling his brides better. Thanks Tammy!! I know it is all crazy and Juan needs to be careful of what he promises to brides or it can get really bad!! Yes I agree his pictures are amazing and worth the wait that was PROMISED!!

Quote: Originally Posted by TammyB Plus the fact that this is the SECOND time he has done this to you, first he finished Nicoles and now Sarah's that is TOTAL BS.. He knows us girls on the forum all watch his site waiting for new pictures to be posted so we were bound to find out... This is totally unprofessional and IMO he needs to start think what he needs to do to make you happy. (other then giving you your pictures) Did your contact happen to say how long it would take for your pictures to get done? I agree, we will see what happens there! I know I just don't get it, I mean people always check is website and there are alot of girls on here waiting for pictures so everyone checks every day!! Yes our contract says 1 MONTH, YES THAT IS RIGHT 1 MONTH!!! We are pass 3 months now!!!

Quote: Originally Posted by TammyB Oh the pictures are there, I couldn't view them because I didn't know her event key name. But their ready for view. Natalie, their is NO REASON why Juan should go out of order. Did he know you were skipped over? Didn't you already have your TTD pictures done? Hmm so that would mean he knew your wedding was before theirs. I would be very upset if I were you. Yes he knows our wedding is before theirs. I mean we got our TTD pictures over a month and half ago and have been waiting very patiently for our wedding ones. He keeps telling us a week or a few days and than we don't see them. This has been going on for the last month. I just want to cry, I'm so angry. I mean he shouldn't be pushing my pregnant emotions around any more than they are!! I just don't UNDERSTAND what the issue is??

Quote: Originally Posted by Julesr Are the actual pictures there, or just their names? If the actual pictures are there, you need to talk to Juan about that, because that is just wrong. They should go in order of wedding date no matter what. on his website it shows that you can log in to get them. like if you go to my name it says has not been released yet.

Quote: Originally Posted by TammyB When was Sarah's wedding? For some reason I thought it was after yours. umm yeah it was a week after!!! This will make 2 brides who got married a week after me to get there pictures before me!!! As you can tell I'm sooooooooooooo happy about this!!!!!! I love that Juan goes in order of weddings! I think that is really fair!!!

yes it looks like sarah and james are done!

It is beautiful!!! It came out so well! I'm so happy for you! Did your photographer do it for you or did you design it?

yeah so glad you got the books!! I hope you don't think I'm gross with the one i got you, I just think it is hilarious and a great book!! Glad to hear all the food is working out, I'm getting so hungry thinking about it!! Eat up and try to get some rest!!

Happy Belated Birthday Courntey!!!! I hope you had a great one!!

Heidi, I'm so sorry for your loss! You are such a strong person and you will get through all of this! You are in my thoughts and prayers.

god I'm so jealous!!! I'm craving sushi so bad and i have 7 more months without it!!! Have so much tonight, I can't wait to hear all about it!

I have used nail tek ( or tech) not sure which way it is spelled on there bottle. Anyways there are many different kinds and I loved it! my nails are always short and broke! When I started using it I actually grew thick nails! Also I would recommend getting a manicure too, that always helped my nails grow. I would take in my nail tek for them to use as the base coat.

Welcome back!!! Your pictures were beautiful!!! Congrats to you!!

Wow those are hot!! You FI is going to love them!!

This came out really cute! Your guests will love it!

Those look great!! Thanks for sharing!!

We got legaly married in a church 2 days before we left. It is easy you both need to go and get your marriage license together and then you have I think 60 days to use it until it expires. If you go downtown to the one on Randolph and Clark there is a judge down there in one of the rooms. I have seen people get married down there when I was picking up my license. You might need to call ahead, don't stress it is easy!!

Happy Birthday!!! Have a great day!!!

happy anniversary leigh!! i hope you and hubby have a great day!

your dress is beautiful! You look fab in it!!!

Your pictures look awesome!! I love the layout of your book!!! I can't wait until you get it! Do you know the company he is printing through?

Oh good we are so happy you got it and love it!!! Enjoy, the food sounds amazing!!!!
