Finished my review http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/products/now-jade-riviera-cancun/reviews/7078 Feel free to ask me questions about anything I didn't mention

The package includes one centerpiece. I saw one centerpiece on my ceremony table and for some reason there was another once I got to the reception. So I got two but didn't pay for it.

I had both LED lights and tea lights at my reception in the Bamboo room

I kept looking for you too! My bridesmaid said she talked to you at the 'disco' and then someone mentioned you passed along best wishes at the reception. Glad everything went well. I did see your groomsman a few times and peaked at your reception (I think you were cutting the cake). You looked beautiful!!!!!

Got back on Friday from 11 glorious days and an amazing wedding at the Now Jade. Like all other previous brides have told you, relax and Pilar and her staff are amazing. They take of everything and more. I plan on catching up on the thread and answering any questions I can and starting my review this afternoon. If you have any questions please let me know. I couldn't have planned a wedding without this thread and want to pay it forward. No official pictures yet, but here is a candid from my friend

Hey ladies, Getting married this Saturday at the Now Jade. Originally leaving Wednesday but decided to move it up one day because of the potential snow storm in DC/Baltimore. Weather looks fantastic and although I haven't heard from Pilar much, keeping my fingers crossed that everything will run smoothly. Promise to write a detailed review and answer any questions upon my return. Michele

So hopeful. My group loves to drink. Sounds perfect. Thank you!

Me too!!! Do any past brides or anyone who has visited the resort know about their top shelf alcohol? Vodka brand, whiskey, etc?

Did you add in the $350 outside vendor fee? I wanted to use an outside florist but decided it would ultimately be cheaper to just use the resort

I am getting married at 4:30. Two of my bridesmaids and I are having both are hair and makeup done and the spa scheduled me for noon. My photographer wanted me ready in the room by 3 so they can take getting ready photos with my girls. Hope this helps. I can't wait for the mimosas!

Thank you!

Does anyone have the children's menu? Thanks!

Does anyone have a copy of the 'wedding book'? I am getting married next month and Pilar has yet to send me the Planning form but I did receive it from another bride. One of the questions on it says " Will you need Flower Arch or Bamboo Canopy set up? These are included in the packages for Beach or Garden ceremony and are optional . (Page 16 wedding book) I know I want an arch but not sure what the pictures look like. Thanks

My reception is in the Bamboo room. So maybe it is different.

The $250 is for a private bartender I guess. My mom insisted since my crowd loves to drink and doesn't want to wait. :-) Signature drink shouldn't have any cost involved.
