Hi ladies, Do any of you know if the outside vendor fee applies to each outside vendor you bring or does one fee cover all

Hi Ladies. Has anyone used Victor Herrera Photography? Any reviews would be appreciated!

They have a classic package for $850+the minister but you get a semi private reception for 15 people and a cake and flowers. Thanks Kelly. Yeah I was looking into a la carte since i wont be needing the minister or judge (getting married at a local church in playa) figured this would be best for me but it seems that i will end up paying more if I went with a la carte! Im still trying to get someone from the Royal to answer some questions! They take forever to get back! =(

Are any of you ladies having an "a la carte" wedding?

Anyone looking for a photographer still should def check her out. Thank you! I will look into her!

We booked through DJ Ivan and got him for 4 hours with the light up dance floor for $1,200. The $1,200 is for 3hrs and does not include the dance floor. Only lights and sound.

So today I finally get a response from the WP at RPC to discover that I need to pay $400 to rent the site as I will be having an "a la carte" wedding. I would really have appreciated if they told me this the first time I mentioned "a la carte" to them. Then i email them with questions and no reply! Im sooo frustrated i have so many questions and nobody to answer them! Sorry ladies just had to vent!

Have any of you ladies found that the wedding planners at the Royal take forever to get back to you or is that just me?

Thanks Kim I will def. do my homework!

I wonder if this rule is just for this specific DJ or all in general? Thanks for the info.

I dont sorry! How expensive is Del Sol I sent them an email regarding pricing but havent heard back.

I just told the resort we had a DJ that we wanted to use and they did not ask any questions. How did you find this DJ? Were you able to get a sample of his music? I too am getting married at the Royal and was thinking of booking through the resort until I read your post!LOL! If you still have their info I would greatly appreciate this! Thanks!

Im in the process of booking at the Royal for Nov 5, 2010! =)

Thanks for the info! I have been looking into Elizabeth Medina, her work looks amazing. I sent her an email to check on prices and availability. We will see what happens!
