Hi Cristina, I'm planning on doing the exact same thing as you - from ceremony, reception to paper lanterns and all! I'd love to hear your review when you get back. Specifically, how was the private beach party? Did you have to dance on the sand?? This is one of my concerns. Or anyone else that can answer? Can you do speeches, dancing all there? And what type of lanterns did you get? I'm about to order them. Hope everything goes better than you expected!!! Can't wait for reviews
