I looked through his blog to get ideas of what photos I liked and then one week before the wedding I emailed him some of his pics.

I looked at the Adventure Photos and compared with Juan I thought they were a little lacking but I think it is really about personal choice. Have you thought about where you will be having your reception? Also how many people will you be having. I am so excited for you because you will have memories of a lifetime.

Secondly I also agree Juan is Amazing however when i was down at the resort I saw the Adventure Photos (the Hotel Photographers) and they did a SUPRISINGLY amazing job as well. Photos look professional, and they use all the locations
. No price to bring Juan onto the resort

Thanks. I can't wait to post a full review for everyone. I am waiting to get all my pictures from Juan. Maybe in 3 weeks or so I willbe able to put my full review up. If u have any questions at all about anything ask and I will help as much as I can. I have no regrets for my wedding except that the videographer that came with my package was not fabulous. There was a lot of noise interference on it and they put in music that we did not request. We picked out all the songs we wanted and I think they only used one or two that we picked. If this aspect is important to you that I would look into hiring a company and paying a little extra money for that. Also I can't believe we forgot to have someone video tape the speeches. Big mistake!! Just a few tips and the only regrets I have. Everything was gorgeous and perfect and our gusts had a great time. We will have a lifetime of memories!! You will too!

So I just got back his links with over 1000 proofs for me to review and I am sooo blown away. His work is amazing! There are no words to describe then talent and eye he really has. He is a true artist with so much talent. Hands down it is the best work I have ever seen!!
-
P.S. I am going to do my review when I get all of my pictures from Juan back.

We had our reception on the club terrace. It was amazing!! I know they don't offer that location unless 70% of your guests are booked in the club tower rooms!

Check out our wedding that Juan did. You have to hire him. His prices are reasonable and he does an amazing job. http://blog.juanphotos.com/

Has anyone that has returned from their wedding gotten those Waterford Champagne flutes? I just requested them, apparently you have to go to the web site and request them after you return from your wedding. They are free so I figured why not? They look pretty. I am more a Crate N Barrel kind of girl but I am going for it.

I love the bottom one because that Aqua swirl added a lot of class. LOVE it!

Thanks a bunch...now I feel a little better. I am glad I am not the only stalker out there! LOL!!!

Does anyone know how lng he usually takes to get you his proffs. I am trying not to bug him. He does an amazing job I am so excited to get the link when he uploads them. It will be three weeks from Friday. My fiance is telling me to stop bugging him but I am just super excited. Over a week ago he told me he was currently working on our photos. I am obsessing. No joke I am like checking my email on my phone every 5 minutes.

also make sure you line them with a colored tissue paper and on top too so customs does not see the starfish. I did not have an issue but some brides have so I made sure they weren't that visable.

I bought big disposable plastic containers and put them in them with tissue paper and none of them broke. It worked like a charm. Ziploc puts out great tupperware looking containers. I just bought the large rectangle ones.

Make sure u have her show u all wedding sites. I felt bad for some brides due to the lack of privacy on a few of the weddings that I saw. One was on a beach in the afternoon and people were walking throughher reception with bikinis etc. I had Claudia as our wedding cordinator and I really loved every second of our wedding. Claudia made everything PERFECT! She was amazing and I will assume Cecilia will be the same I would ask Cecilia what options you have that will be private. I am almost wondering if the Garden area would be the best place. Especially because you will have the lit up Gazebo in the background. I had mine on the club terrace which was perfect but they no longer offer that for weddings. If you would like to see any pictures I have you can check out my facebook page and request me as a friend. My name is Jana Cahill. I do not have my professional photos back yet from Juan Navarro but he is truly the best photographer ever. When I get his pictures I will post them because they are amazing from what I saw on his camera when he was shooting them. I would also spring for those lights that they use under the tables. I did not need them because I had lighting from the terrace but you will want to make sure you have those. I would also tour all the room categories so that you know which room category to have your guests booked in. We did not do that and wish we had. Let me know if you have any other questions.

The spa...hmmm I have their email address. [email protected]

I just had my wedding and Juan Navarro was amazing. www.juanphotos.com Also his prices are fantastic!!

I agree with Leigh. You will not feel like you have made a mistake if you choose Dreams. Botton line is that they do an amazing job and seriously u can not get a better location for a wedding. None of the other resorts have a location like this for pictures and for a wedding. No way. Also if u are searching for a photographer you need to go with Juan Navarro he was hands down the best I have ever seen. I love his work.

Oh I almost forgot to mention the DJ from the resort luis DeAlba...he was the best dj I have heard at a wedding by far. I was very impressed.

I just got back from my Dreams wedding over a week ago it was amazing!! I would definately go through a travel agent that can offer you all a group rate. My travel agent used Apple and the prices were amazing. My friend went through the resort and paid a little more than double what everyone else paid. For 3 nights 4 days it was $550. This included the transfers to from the airport to the resort as well. The airfare was seperate. We thought it was a great deal. They all got oceanfront rooms as well a higher room category.
You should see how amaxing they do on the flowers and the cake.
