    Alexis - your story of your engagement cracked me up! I can't wait to see how everything comes together. The resort looks amazing, and your inspiration pics are fab.

    Gail - Tammy & Nikki are right. Even at 10 days out the weather is going to change. Don't sweat it!!! The onsite WC will give you a back up indoor ceremony location - likely the chapel or the salon/ballroom. They will call you about noon on your wedding day to confirm the location - indoors or out. So you have up until that point to hope for good weather.

    hi there! I'd tend to agree - you probably don't need a DJ for that time frame. If you have a dedicated & trusted friend, they can help you run through the timing of the evening, and you can put your playlist for your bonfire/lounge time on an iPod. You could also put dinner/background music on it to play through the meal.

    we had a rainy day - but it wasn't too bad. they had umbrellas in the closet that we could use around the resort. we decided it'd be fun to play in the rain anyway.

    My dress was a decent size. a) because I'm a big girl and it's an a-line with a train. If it fits in the usual dress shop bridal bag, it should be fine.

    no worries! Yes, our wedding was 5 months ago (SOB!). it was a total dream wedding in paradise. The planning of course had it's stressful moments - it is a wedding, regardless of the location. I still can't believe it's over sometimes. I have a planning thread if you'd like to read about all of the crazy details. I'm glad you have a trusted travel agent - they can make the whole process soooo much easier on you. I hope your search goes well!!!

    I wouldn't totally rule out NOW Jade just because the WC is taking a while to respond. That's pretty typical in Mexico (I ran into it with EDR - sister property to the Azul's). It all gets worked out fine though - the onsite WC's are pros and will throw the wedding of your dreams. I am partial to the Karisma resorts myself, but NOW Jade was also one of our top choices. You're so lucky to be able to do site visits!! Good luck, and happy planning!

    Hi there - welcome to BDW! You can definitely find a wide range of prices for the resort, and then the wedding add ons can be as much or as little as you want (and still be beautiful and elegant). I would suggest working with a travel agent who specializes in destination weddings. They will be able to work with you to find the perfect resort for you and your guests. Wright Travel Agency can help you narrow down the options - there's a link in my signature if you'd like to learn more about them. Good luck and happy planning!!
