You can purchase a photo package for $560, the photographer will following you the whole day and will give you back 36 pictures, after that is $15 per picture. I didn't book for a photo package, the photographer was waiting for me at the very beginning of the talking path (where the guests couldn't see you yet), had a few pictures done there, then more along the ceremony. My package comes with 10 free pictures, then it's optional to buy the rest of them Scarlett

Swankster you look soooooooo pretty!!!

Hi Swankster!! I'm glad your wedding turned out well, and guess what? we are both a married woman now! Isn't that strange? ha! I didn't really "use" Arrecife, he just happened to be the resort photographer, our package included 10 free pictures and I ended up purchasing ALL of the pictures from him, how could you resist such nice pictures? He was amazing anyway, very professional and fun!! Please post some of your pictures, can't wait!!

Oh one more, I did this specially for all of you!! It doesn't look too clear in this picture, it said " Good luck to all GBP brides"!!

oh no, I must have made a mistake, sorry!

Hi there, here's a little teaser, I'll post more with my review later on!

It kind of depends how many people you have at your party. It's better if you have a larger group like 35 or more, that'll give you a better odds of people dancing and be able to utilize the DJ and the atmosphere better. My group only have 24 people and I decided not to do a poolside reception, ( trust me it's not an easy decision!!). We ended up doing our first dance at Daiquiri Bar and danced there for another 2 hours with mainly our party and some other resort guest, it was absolutely FUN!!!

I though I saw her and her wedding party at the pool! ha!

If so how did you go about this? & what day did you have the wedding rehearsal dinner on? Thanks Lisa Hi Waybuloo, How would you like to do your welcome/rehearsal dinner? You can always ask your WC to reserve a section at one of the buffet so everyone can sit close together. It's a bit more work to do an a la cart, I think you can still try and coordinate with your WC, but it's definitely easier to do it at the buffet Scarlett

Sorry, forgot about the price, I got them for $5 each and sell them for $3 plus shipping, thanks!

For those of you who like to give away smaller beach totes for your OOT items! It is about 8"X10"X 3", it's well enough to carry a pair of flip flops and other usual OOT bags items such as medications, hand sanitizer, etc. I have 20 of them, please let me know if you have any questions Scarlett
