I am planning on carrying on my dress, and hoping for a nice flight attendent crew that loves brides to be nice to me

I did the Value Package ( I think, the 3 hour package) for photgraphy only and then added one more hour on top of that.

Great, thank you for the info! I am hoping to go with fresh real flower. I may buy a back up fake if I find a cheap or sale one. Just as a back up plan.

Amanda, I love your hair flower. Is your hair flower real? If not, where did you get if from? It looks so great in your siggy pic? Did you find it the right size? too big /too little?

They are one of the photogs you can pick for package from dreams cabo. I am SUPER excited to work with them. You can see more from him on this forum in the cabo vendors section. IMO, he was very reasonable in his prices. I was able to upgrade for many more hours of photgraphy and just barely went over my budget. I also loved Juan Carlos Tapia's work, but he was out of my budget.

Oh I think thos are called Chimanaya's (the ceramic pot looking thing? That sounds like it would be so great.

I am using the dreams ultimate package. I did hire my own DJ, DJ Ricardo, and used Mango Weddings thru Dreams, but uprgraded him for more coverage. Both of them were extemely easy to work with and I found thier contact info in this website. I have not made any decisions on the decorations and probably wont for a few months, but assume that I will be upgrading candles, flowers, votives, chair bows and some other things that are not included. But I plan on just doing these things thru Dreams, unless the prices seem way too hight. One of my BFF's is a make up artist so she will be doing my make up. I am going to ask my WC at Dreams if I can swap the dreams make up and have a second hair appointment. So maybe I can do a hair trial the day before and then the wedidng haor the day of. I am going to stick with something simple for hair to try to make the best of it. If it gets really messed up, my FI's sister did hair for a couple of years, so I think she can fix it as a back up plan. Many of the other Cabo brides have nothing but RAVE reviews for Suszanne Morel for hair and make up if you go a different route. All of the pics of the brides she has done have been amazing. Since I have my own makeup person I decided that I did not want to have to leave the resort to have hair done, so I figured this is one place I could save money in the budget. Hope this helps.

OOT statnds for out of town bags. traditionally gifts for those who travel from out of town for traditional weddings. For DW's (destination wedding's) all th peeps are from out of town so they can also be like welcome bags.

I know, I am sold, I want my ceremony in Cabo to be the first time we say any vows to each other. I definitly want to do the legal stuff after the trip. I am acutally super excited about this .. LOL!!

OMG! It was so beautiful I watched like 3 times!!

I negotiated with my own photographer, and he is billing me thru dreams. I plan on just keepin organizied notes of my agreed prices and making sure they match when I pay the bill. But I had not thought of all the questions you asked. Sorry I am not a better help.

Your member status is determined but the number of posts that you make. I am nut sure the exact number to change from newbie, but you are close. I would go to the newbie sub forum and welcome some new members, answer any questions that you can and you will reach it. Hope this helps.
