Hi Cortney, We are going for the Eternity package next April. For us, we wanted to include a sit down dinner at the very least -you are right, they are coming a long way to see you tie the knot, so I think it's nice to have a special/private dinner So far this package is working well for us, includes a lot of the things we want (ie. hair, makeup, dinner, photos, etc). I guess it depends on what you find most important though as to whether you get the best value out of it. In the wedding guide, you can see the costs of not going with a package and just adding on things that you want. It adds up pretty quickly but that approach might work for you too. Jen
