Now I keep looking the weather up on weather.com but, my dates aren't up on the 10 day forecast yet.... I'm praying for sunny weather!!!!!!!

They are only charging me $10 to do it. Wow... that is really good to know. I am going to check into that as well. I have a question for y'all. I know it has been discussed but I, for some reason, didn't decide what to do. Are y'all making a place setting for your photographer? Are you paying for them to eat? Just getting all my stuff ready to ship and thought I would ask that before I ship all my place cards, etc......

When we booked him he had an amazing deal going on and ofen does do diffrent promotions. He is less expensive now but I don't think that will last for long. His pictures are amazing. You will see what I mean once you see them. I am also using Samuel Luna! My wedding is taking play November 22, 2009 so I will definitely post pictures after the wedding so you all can see his work. I have been very impressed with him so far. And... I think he is pretty reasonable. We are actually having him take photos of our welcome dinner as well..

Doe anyone know if you can bring your dress plus a carry-on if you dont have a purse? cause i thought i saw someone doing that? that is my only option so i hope its ok! Good luck all! Check with your airline. We are flying Continental and they allow you to bring your wedding dress on and don't count it against you as a carry on. So, basically you can bring a purse, a carry on bag, and your dress.

I have booked Samuel Luna for my November 22, 2009 wedding... so I will definitely post pictures afterwards. I really like his style of photographs and I'm looking forward to working with him. We are doing the Soulful package so that he can take pictures of our Welcome Dinner the night before as well. So, if you can wait a month I will post a full review. teri

Do you want me to email them to you? Just send me your email address and I will send them over.

Pineapplebride... I have actually booked the gazebo. If you book the gazebo then you are basically also booking the beach in front of the gazebo - if you decided to change your mind. They would not book the beach in front of the gazebo while your wedding is going on because then they would have two weddings basically in one location. Also, there is only one gazebo and there are three different locations for a beach wedding. That way for sure you had the gazebo but if you decided at the last minute you wanted the beach then you would have that option. Does that make sense? Just a thought...

From what I understand it doesn't matter which package you choose... you only get one entree selection. I think the only difference in the meals and packages are that the Luxury and ultimate Luxury packages include a 4 course meal and the others include a 3 course meal.

I am trying to decide if I am going to go with the Funever Photographers that the Resort contracts with. Does anyone have their pictures I can look at or have a review of their service. It is driving me crazy!!!! I have another back up just in case. Thank you!
