Keira, I was just reading your review and we were totally on the same flights lol! I completely forgot you were from Burlington! Damn!!

Keira, OMG..... On Wed we went to the cenote and chichen-Itza and it was pouring! I was so happy because everyone says that it never rains 2 days in a row... ever. So I thought perfect, my wedding day will be gorgeous! Ya ok... lol. It was raining in the morning and then off and on in the afternoon so we couldn't have the wedding on the beach like we were supposed to because of the sound equipment etc. The beach looked destroyed anyways... but we got married at 3pm and it cleared up early enough for us to take pics and get married in the semi-sun lol. It was seriously windy though, which is why I had to have my hair completely up, which wasn't what I had wanted, but it turned out! It was such a great time! Oh, and then everyone was joking about the fact that I picked the song November Rain for our document signing and how I "asked for it" lol. What time did you get married and how did your day go?

I know that their prices are different now... I'm PM-ing you now.

No, the $500 fee applied unfortunately. The photogs just emailed me and said they'll have a few teasers up for me tonight. I'll post them so you can check it out.

Hey Katie. I hired Caribe 2 days before I left for my wedding, but I hired him for videography, not photography so I can't say what the quality of his photos are. In terms of the video, meh, it wasn't that important to me, I just wanted something to bring home to my family that didn't make it to the wedding. He was ok I guess. I barely spoke to him. He showed up, did what he had to do and left lol. I met him a few days later and he gave me the video. The quality wasn't fantastic - I couldn't even hear my ceremony music in it, but like I said I wasn't too concerned. Sorry I can't be of more help

Congrats and to the forum! Good luck and happy planning!

Here's the thread I started on them: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...ography-33248/ As you all probably know, because I've mentioned it a million times, I kept my wedding REALLY simple. No extra decorations, no private dinner, but I researched the photography like crazy and splurged in that dept because its what was important to me. If you have any questions I'd be happy to help!

Hey ladies! I've been on and off this thread... mostly off, but I just wanted to say that I'm back from my wedding and it was awesome! I was stressing big time for months leading up to it but honestly once I got there I just completely relaxed and let it happen. I just wanted to wish you all luck and I look forward to seeing all of your pics when you get back

I know we are all interested in all of the details of the week. How your nails held up? How did your make up go? Did you get your hair done there? How was the spa? Ok, I am getting ahead of my self. I am not doing a private dinner either so I really am interested in that whole experience. I might PM you and get your thoughts. So happy for you to be a Mrs. !! Nails held up well surprisingly! I did my own makeup but I don't have ANY pics of my wedding day! I'm waiting for my friends to post some so I can see how it looked. I will say that it lasted all day and all the way to 4am, even through tears! I did get my hair done there. I didn't end up doind my hair the way I wanted it because it was sooo windy, so I had it all up, but their ladies did a good job of everyone's hair. With the money IMO. PM me for sure! I'd be glad to help! Hopefully I can get my official review done soon...

I know they have a make up artist at the resort so is anyone using her and if not what are you going to do? I just returned from my wedding on Sunday. I honestly felt that the spa prices were ridiculous. I had my makeup artist friend show me how to do my make up and I did my own. To save a bit of cash I also got my acrylic nails done at home the day before I left, which held up well btw!

Congrats and to the forum!

Im late on this..... CONGRATS ladies!!!! WOOT!!!!

I confess that I didn't think about any people that didn't attend my wedding in Mexico on Thursday - including my mother who I love dearly..... oops!

Hola! I'm back from wedding and just wanted to post quickly about Lincoln and Lori. I'll do a formal review later on, but I wanted to let everyone know how amazing they are! Honestly, choosing MTM to shoot my wedding was the decision that I am most happy with, more so than the resort! They went over and above in my opinion. We were a small group of 9 and they blended in like family. They kept me calm during ceremony location chaos and even took charge to get the best results for us. Hiring them was the BEST wedding decision I made - and I'm saying this without even seeing my pics yet lol. The service the provided would be tough to beat! As soon as I get my pics I'll post them!

Hola ladies, I'm back! I just wanted to give you a short update on the wedding. I'll do a detailed review after I write to my TA and Karisma. My wedding day was amazing. I loved it! There were quite a few bumps along the way, but thankfully my photogs were a huge help in sorting that out. It was raining the day of the wedding (off and on) so we couldn't have it on the beach. The WC was inisisting that we have it in a freakin hallway of one of the buildings..... luckily my photogs found a better spot and fought them to the bitter end on it. We won I didn't do a private reception but my dinner was amazing. I was impressed the MOST about the dinner. Because we were such a small group they allowed us to have it at the Siena rather than Spoons. It was amazing! Honestly, the resort is beautiful..... I had an amazing time with my friends and family. I'll try to get on my review ASAP, I'm just swamped with work right now . Reality sucks after being waited on all week lol!!

Awww thanks for the wedding love ladies! My day was AMAZING! Review to come soon and hopefully some pics too.... I'm dying over here lol.
