    I am using an outside photographer, Fabio said that we can use anyone as long as it's not Del Sol if they either stay three nights at the hotel or pay $500.

    I am using RAFAEL IBAÑEZ

    He is coming in from Monterrey, MX.
  2. Hey Ladies, are anyone guests booking rooms on their own (not through a dedicated TA)?If so, how are you linking them to your wedding at the hotel? All of my guests are booking through my TA except for one that found a better rate online, so I requested that she be placed near the rest of the family and my TA is refusing to do that saying that they cannot gaurantee that the other vendor will uphold the room etc. Aren't a lot of guests booking on their own? This makes no sense to me. It seems like they are trying to make sure they get all the commission by forcing us to book through them.

  4. Is anyone getting married at 6 pm and also having a cocktail hour?

     

    My concern is that I have read somewhere that the resort does not allow receptions to last past 11pm. If the ceremony lasts 30-45 mins and the cocktail hour 1 hour then the reception would go until around 12am. All of the food/music options are for 4 hours? Will the resort cut the reception short or will they allow it to run the full 4 hours until 12am?

    I am using destinationweddings.com (Joani) and they/she is great. She just informed me that one of her colleagues was down at the hotel and progress was looking"iffy" for Nov.

    Being that our wedding is Nov. 14th I went a little psycho and called Berwick travel to ask what they knew (they seem to have to most info online) I actually got to speak with steve (the dude from all the utube videos) and he said that as far as he knew they would be ready.

    Long story short we really won't know anything until the day comes. Totally sucks but really helped me put some aggression into my personal training session this morning.

    Amy,

    Have you called Karisma directly? I'm sure they will be open by your wedding. I couldn't imagine them not opening and ruining their reputation by screwing up so many weddings. They are well aware that they have several weddings in October and I'm sure they will do everything they can to open on time. With construction there are usually delays but it seems like a month late is plenty.

    I have a photographer hear in Atlanta that I would love to bring with me, but I hate the resorts rules. I've also been looking into Mexican Wedding Photos but I'm not sure yet. What about you?
    We have not decided which photographer to go with yet, but out of all the ones that the hotel approves with no fee we like Claudia the best. This is one of the most difficult decisions I think we'll have to make with this process.

    That would be great, thank you...i'm going to get there on May 10th to try to have everything settled by the 15th. Planning a wedding in a different country is pretty difficult.

    Have you booked a photographer yet? Are you going there for a site visit?
