  1. oh- sorry. We got this in October. But we sent her the planning form without her asking for it, I just saw it mentioned on here and then sent her an email to request it. So we completed it and sent it to her, then she sent us the invoice.
  2. Not at all, keep in mind, at the time, we had 38 adults and 2 children, now we have 40 adults and 3 children, so it will only go up Can you see it below? If not, I can email it to you, no worries.
  3. That's what we were told also- as the ceremony and reception are considered two separate events. We are having a DJ instead of live music, but we only get him for 2 hours, so our reception is from 7-10; we'll just run an ipad of music during the first dinner hour, then the DJ will come from 8-10. It's going to go by so fast! But when we got our invoice from Pilar, we almost choked. our $2999 pkg turned into $5300. ouch! So we're unfortunately having to cut some things. I hope nobody minds taking off to the disco at 10 LOL!
  4. Stupid question, but what size napkins should I be looking at? 17 or 20? Presentación Medidas pergola.pdf Pergola Location.pdf
  5. Welcome! you will love this forum, everyone here is so great and SO helpful You might have to double check this, but I think the resort charges per person to have the reception dinner in one of their restaurants, so that's something to think about. We chose the Bamboo Room for a few reasons- it's air conditioned . It's private and close to the beach also for us, even though we are doing a DW, we still wanted to maintain some of the elements of a "traditional" wedding, so having a private sit down dinner was important. But we are having 45 guests, so we do need a bigger space. Totally depends what you're looking for! As far as the timing, Pilar told us they do two weddings per day, one in the late morning, and late afternoon (which we are doing), so no, I don't think 11am is too early! Better than 2pm in the scalding heat, and then people will still have tons of time to freshen up before dinner! A tip- I'm not sure what the Moment pkg includes, but if there is live music, you can swap out for 2hrs of DJ service at no charge... hope that helps! kristen
  6. I agree! We need to think out of the box, I think...so many freakin rules! The whole point of a destinaiton wedding is to do it differently, I say! My mother, on the other hand.....LOL
  7. Here is a pic- on the document Pilar sent me. I think I like the look of this, just not sure how it will fit in the Bamboo room- although, this IS in the Bambbo Room. maybe do this for dinner, then they could break it away for dancing?
  8. Also- if anyone saw the Now Jade dinner locations document, page 4 is what I am referring to, for one big table I'll attach it agin here. NOW JADE DINNER LOCATIONS.pdf
  9. Hi Ladies, I am struggling a bit with our layout for the dinner in the Bamboo Room. Any advice is appreciated! We have 44 guests coming, 15 of which are in the wedding party (7 on my side, 6 on his- which drives me CRAZY, but I'll figure that part out LOL) Here are my thoughts: - do we have a head table with all of the wedding party, and then the other 29 guests spread amongst rounds? - do we just do all rounds? - a sweetheart table with just bride, grrom, MOH, and BM? - one long table for all of us? I saw a really cute pic which had say, 3 long rectangular tables, back to back with 3 other long, pushed together, so it looked like one big table, and then we can all eat together, facing each other at one big table? (this would also help me with decreasing the cost of runners LOL) My concerns are aesthetic of course, but also, for example, my BM is bringing his girlfriend, and she won't be able to eat with him if he's at a head table. I know this is typical and happens often, but I was just thinking that because the nature of a destination wedding is more casual to begin with, we could stray from the norm. Help! Kristen
