I had emailed the resort 3 weeks ago with no response and then I sent the same email to every email address I had there and she responded. I emailed her back and she has yet to respond to that one.

I actually heard back from Yessica, she has been assigned to be my coordinator, and she answered all my questions and I am waiting on a follow up email from her concerning the reception location. I will make sure I write a review for all of you to read when I get back and answer any questions you guys may have!

I'm happy and excited all at the same time! Can't wait to roll to DR, the countdown has officially began

Quote: Originally Posted by JENISE Misty - Have you heard back from the resort or do they still seem to be MIA? Yes, I heard back from Yessica. She said that she will be my wedding coordinator and is happy to create a unique experience for me and then in the next sentence, tells me that another wedding has the Bourdeaux which I am certain I requested, so I emailed her back about that since I originally talked to Sharron (who no longer works there) and Deyanira (whose emails always bounce back and give me a delivery error message). So I am going to see what she says and go from there, I am not stressed anymore and I am just ready to go and sit down and talk to her at our initial meeting. I'm hoping to run into the other bride as well and ask her to move and see what happens. BTW my civil ceremony is this Saturday at 11am!!!!

Haha. Hey Jackie: His site is Index, and his email address to request a quote is [email protected]. Good luck. Misty

I most certainly will and if you have any questions, my email is [email protected].

I would definately leave a message on the FB page or maybe even give them a call?!? Yessica emailed me last night and said she is my wedding coordinator so I'm relieved! She did tell me that another wedding has the Bourdeaux Terrace which initially pissed me off, but then I thought...who cares, I'm going to get married to the man God made for me, and all that little stuff doesn't even matter anymore. It's going to be beautiful anywhere that it's done there. Time to let the little things go and focus on being happy! Thanks Fiona!

OK good, because I just sent her an email asking her to confirm that we can have the Hitmitsu Terrace. Come on 3 weeks!

HOT MAMA!! Love them Jenise, you look great!!! He's going to love them

Hey girls! I finally got a response from the resort and Yessica will be my coordinator. I am kinda disappointed that she told me the Bordeaux Terrace is already reserved for that date when I am positive I told Deyanira I wanted to reserve that location. She said Hitmitsu and El Patio are first come, first serve basis, what does that mean? Do I have to wait till I get there to see what they have available or should I just send her an email and request one of those now.... Ugh, wasn't trying to use either one of those locations but I guess I have no choice...either way I'm relieved now I'll keep you guys updated! Misty

Thanks so much! I guess my main concern is am I just supposed to go down there and expect a letter telling me when to meet them. I guess I just want some type of confirmation that they know what day I will be there and all that good stuff. I may comment on the FB page now and see if I get a response.

DJ Mannia is $850.00 and the resort DJ is $350.00

fiandc24, I am sorry you are having those issues, I am as well and my wedding is in 25 days...yikes! I originally had Sharron, I thought anyways, and then Deyanira sent me my confirmation in January and now that I have started asking questions...no answer! Elaina pretty much hit the nail on the head with all of your answers though. And most importantly, keep all emails you do get from them for your records! Good luck

I still haven't heard back from the resort and feel like literally pulling my hair out! I just better not have any issues once I get there, because they have my deposit and I have the confirmation that they sent me as well as my credit card statement showing they took my money. They better not mess anything up or I swear to God, I will *bleep* *bleep* *bleep*, and that is not a good thing. LOL Staying prayed up that everything will fall in place. By the way, we picked up our marriage license yesterday!!! Yay, plan on getting married on the 25th!!!

They are gorgeous honey!!! I'm glad someone really loved my idea, that means alot! You did a great job! Your guests are going to think so too!

You did a great job mama! I am so proud of you and glad that I inspired you on your first DIY project! Best of luck

Deyanira was fantastic, and my god are they ever busy here, ALL THE TIME! I will answer to any questions you have, so post them here and/or send me an email [email protected] By the way, I got married on the beach! I am beyond happy with my choice, by the way. They did a good job of clearing out people that were too close, but it wasn't private for sure! I didn't even notice if people walked in behind us during the ceremony, I was too wrapped up in what was going on By the way, I HIGHLY recommend the huppah! Not only did it look WAY, WAY better, but while DH and his groomsmen were waiting for us to arrive they took shelter under the canopy from the sun. We had a minor misunderstanding about the decoration of the huppah... I told her orange flowers, and then realized that it was the decorations for $350... so I quickly corrected her. When I got to the beach, I had some decorations on the huppah and I thought ''oh no, what will this cost us now, or will we have to fight it'' but when we received our bill today, they only charged us $175. So I wonder if she made a compromise because she made the mistake? They put orange and white flower petals down just before I walked down the ''aisle'', which made my Daddy cry... haha Before I go, I should mention that La Barcaza was one of the best decisions we made the whole trip! We would have liked to have it for one more hour though, so if you have the extra $250 in your budget to add it on (if you do La Barcaza) then definitely do it. I look forward ot hearing from you ladies! Nat! Congrats honey!! I know you are having a ball, I have a ton of questions bc I haven't heard back from the resort going on 3 weeks now, but I'll send you an email with all my concerns. I can't wait to see your pics and read your review bc I know you are going to be so detailed just like all of the planning you put into your day!!!

I am looking for someone in the area and have a few recommendations from a friend but they are all very very expensive. Wow! I'll send you a PM so we can exchange contact information bc I am much better with texting then checking the forum on a consistent basis.

So you are going to provide the DJ with a list or actually bring the music on CD's for him to play. I thought about using the resort DJ and have my brother in law MC, since he's ended up MC'ing 3 other weddings and he knows us, so I feel more confindent letting someone who knows us introduce us and do all the announcements. So much to think about it 30 days!

It has been soo busy and we are finally done with all wedding events lol.. we had our AHR last saturday. Hey Toya! I'm just worried that I haven't heard from them more than anything. My last email correspondence was from January bc I really didn't have a reason to reach out to them before then. Now with 1 month left to go, I thought they would have emailed me with a assigned coordinator and just confirm things. Am I being crazy I wondered if they have a lit up dancefloor or just a regular one and if we chose to go with the DJ there, can we just provide him with the CD's of the songs we know we want played. This was a main concern bc if it's not worth it, I was going to book DJ Mannia, but I'm afraid my date is probably gone by now with him. Did you use DJ Mannia? If so, how was he? I'm just stressed....

I'm interested in the 25 starfish, I will send you a PM now. Thanks!

Quote: Originally Posted by Eliana Misty, just call them. I did that a few days ago. I got sick and tired of waiting so I simply called Carolina and got all my answeres. lol I'm going to try that now, but you know I am not bi-lingual like you so I hope they can understand what I am saying, LOL! Quote: Originally Posted by JackieandTim Misty, happy 1 month to your wedding day!! You should definitely be getting responses faster at this point. I work with Caronlina and her email is [email protected]. Good luck! Thanks, I just sent the same email to this address, so hopefully I will get a response from someone soon, but I am going to try to call as well!
