Congrats on your wedding and so glad that overall the wedding went well and you had a great time! I shot a wedding at the Royal in Playa del Carmen in November and my wife and I stayed an extra week and had a really good experience. Thanks for taking the time to write a review of your experiences and helping to make this forum such a fantastic resource!

Congrats and welcome to the forum! You really can't go wrong either way. I would recommend getting your resort picked fairly soon so you can make sure to get your chosen date. After that you and your guests can arrange travel at your leisure.

Welcome to the forum, there is lots of info on Jamaica in the Jamaica threads and using the search function. Best of luck planning your wedding!

I was really hoping for a later time slot (before sunset) and wanted a night-time reception. I appreciate any feedback. One positive thing about an earlier wedding, you would have plenty of time with your photographer afterwards to take photos before the sun goes down. Many times when you have an early wedding, you can take a couple hours to do photos, then take an hour or more for everyone to go back to the rooms and freshen up and get ready for the reception in the evening.

Welcome to the forum! The Canadian Rockies sound beautiful, but Riviera Maya is also gorgeous. Have fun making your new wedding plans!

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your wedding! Most All Inclusive resorts allow guests from outside of the hotel come for the wedding if they purchase a day pass. You may want to ask if that is an option for your guests. Good luck planning!

Welcome to the forum, I have shot 3 weddings at Dreams Cancun and it is beautiful. But Dreams Riviera Cancun looks absolutely fabulous! Congrats on your engagement and best of luck planning your wedding. This forum is a great resource and I'm sure you'll find lots of helpful members!

Welcome the forum as a posting member! It looks like you can't go wrong with either Dreams or Pueblo Bonito. They both look beautiful and experienced with handling weddings. I flew to Playa Del Carmen just after the New Year on January 2nd to photograph a wedding and the prices were great, no more than I got for the rest of the year. Between Christmas and New Year may be a different story. Whatever you end up doing, I'm sure you will have a beautiful wedding, good luck planning!

Hi Diana and Jose, welcome to the forum and congrats on your upcoming wedding! You will find a lot of great information here. Good luck planning your wedding.

The day after it stopped raining and we could go out onto the beach. The Royal Playa del Carmen.

Here is a wedding and day after session in November at the Royal Playa del Carmen.

I was there last Monday and there is still a bulldozer on the beach to the right of the Gazebo. And currently that whole beach on that side of Dreams is closed. Once the wedding started we did not notice the dozer, and it did not take away from the beauty of the wedding. It looks like they were getting fairly close to being done. The beach on the left of the lighthouse is completely open.

Sunita's wedding was last Monday at Dreams and I thought you all might enjoy seeing this sneak peek! Taken by the lighthouse on the point.

I would love to do this, but just have to be sure I can afford it. I thought I would jump in here and answer your questions. The package options remain the same for a marathon, discounted 35%. We will still provide hair and makeup, and each clients session will be 1.5-2 hours. It would be awesome if we could get soft commitments from girls as soon as possible, so we can set a date and start planning!

In fact, she has already put down a deposit, so I know she is serious. Would be great to get more bride's on board. Her wedding is in April, so I'm pretty sure the latest she would like to plan the marathon would be early March but preferably sometime in February.

Hey Cathy and Kat, thanks so much! I had a great time and I'm so proud of the pictures from both of your weddings.

Jean-Marcus, Thank you, what a great network of photographer's we have on here! Jess, haha thanks so much! That's great to hear, good luck on your upcoming wedding!
