Hi everyone,
I was hoping that you could be able to help me out with this.. I have searched other threads and responses for this and was unable to find general answers. If they are out there, forgive me for posting this and mod's please feel free to delete.
I'm very, very new to all this.. my boyfriend and I aren't even engaged yet, but are talking about things and doing things a bit backwards. We know that next summer will be our wedding (2010)... (so things will be moving along shortly... let's hope!)
We really like the area around Riviera Maya with the cenotes and natural beauty, eco-parks and great resorts. I read the thread that the Barcelo Maya Palace recently changed their policy AGAIN which now states there are NO outside vendors. I understand this and get this.. but here's my question..
I have read reviews and seen MANY, MANY pictures of weddings that have happened at the BMP with outside photogs and have read of other resorts in Jamaica that also didn't allow outside vendors, but yet some people have gotten around it.. How did you get them in?
I want to bring in a photog to do shoots before and after the wedding- at the rehearsal dinner, wedding, and day after for TTD... and I do also want to use the photog. that the resort provides to get the most out of the day. If I were to pay for the photog's stay in the resort for however many days and he were to be a guest, and then still use the resort's photographers... what do you think could happen? I would still be abiding by the resorts wishes.. just maybe trying to bend it a little...?
Have any photographer vendors had any problems if there was another photographer there? Any issues arise/problems??
Any tips... help to offer?? Anything would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance! Sorry it was so long!
