I can only speak for the hair, but I think it depends on your hair and what you want. I have super thick hair and even though she made my curls super tight to allow for falling and sprayed the crap out of them, my hair ended up looking bad. One of my bridesmaids ended up re-curling my hair. On the other hand my moms hair (she did an updo) and it looked good. -
I actually used Juan as my photographer and I was very happy with our photos. My wedding was on June 7th and we just received them. Granted there are a few duds in the mix that I could have done without, but with over 400 photos (I don't remember the exact number), there are plenty more that I absolutely love. I will see if I can post a view here.

I'm leaving for our wedding in two days. Ahh I can't wait. The weather reports aren't looking to good for the next few days, so hopefully we get some good weather. Fingers crossed!
-
We are coming back into New York on the Monday after our wedding and then leaving on Thursday for Bora Bora and Moorea (surprisingly Costco had a great travel deal). It will be three times I've been to Mexico so we wanted to switch it up.

I loved getting my dress! I bought it in October, which is kind of early, but hey when you know what you want you get it We requested that our RSVP cards be returned 2 months before the wedding, so April 7th for our June 7th wedding. I didn't want to worry about people still trying to book or thinking about booking right before the wedding. Plus I have to give Gina my menu selection numbers 30 days before hand. For the people that are pretty serious you will get responses back quickly.

I'm sorry I couldn't be more help. We decided on the sea bass with the asparagus and portobello mushrooms in the beurre blanc sauce. The majority of my guests chose that option.

Guys, I just checked and I don't have them. I have emails floating all over the place and I might have it in hard copy (I would have to check when I get home).

Hi Everyone, Can anyone give me information about the lighting? We are thinking about doing the 20 light posts but it's $700 bucks plus 11% tax. How many of these posts do you get? It looks like there are 10 lanterns per post, so I'm assuming it would be two right. Did anyone else bring or do other lighting options? We were also thinking about doing luminaries but I don't know how much light that would give off. Thanks!

Hi DWB2B2014, I had always told my coordinator that I was expecting 40-50 people to attend and it wasn't an issue. I don't know if it is because we are having a late reception on a Friday and no one else is booked?
-
No worries! Just confirm with your coordinator as we all know you have to confirm multiple times 😃 to get things done. Thanks! It was helpful to perforate the RSVP portion so they can return it easily. I will most likely give our bridal party and family an opportunity to change their selections right before I send it to Gina.

Hey JustNoelle, I'm not sure about the minimum/maximum but I have 45 guests (including me and my FI, photographer & assistant) for the pool deck with a sit down dinner. I was able to get three options for dinner, (chicken, beef and fish) from the ultimate package and I have to provide meal choices to Gina 30 days beforehand. I included the options on the RSVP (I included a picture). I also numbered each RSVP with a guest specific number to help me keep track. Hope this helps!

Hey CriCri, Do you have any photos you can share? I'm in the process of booking with Juan, and just got my contract back, and it states Tony Ruesg as being our photographer and not Juan. I didn't realize Juan had a company with other photographers, and now I'm a little hesitant to book as I thought we were getting Juan.

Yamina was mine too. She emailed me this past Sunday, but there was no mention of her leaving. I swear I get info on this forum faster than contacting her. Thanks for letting me know ladies!
-
We decided to use Juan. Yamina sent me his packages that were Dreams specific. I asked her if she books him for us, or if I have to reach out to him. I'm assuming we still get the picturs in the package, but am looking forward to hearing what you find out.

Hey tigerlily, i would just double check to see if you can bring the popcorn with you into the country. I know Mexico is super strict sometimes with what you bring into the country. Whats the name of the store in Chicago? Only because I am a popcorn addict and will probably be in Chicago during October for a conference.
-
Its funny, you have the same opinion as my FI and I am thinking the same way as yours. Right now we are planning on going to city hall after we get back, and "officially" getting married. Then the day after we were probably going to leave on our honeymoon. I am also thinking about having my best friend get certified from the Universal Life Church and marrying us while we are in Mexico. He is such an outgoing, and funny person that I think he would put together a great ceremony for us. From my understanding, New York (I think you are form NY right?) accepts weddings that have been officiated by ministers from ULC. That way you are married and all you have to do is submit the papers into city hall.
-
Thanks for the advice! I asked Yamina if I can have more than one option for the dinner and she gave me the go ahead. I am thinking that three options would probably be best, especially if they have people's entree choices before hand. I rather it cost extra, then having a few people not being able to eat. My FI and are still debating between the gold and the platinum, although the platinum menu does have some of the same choices as the gold.

Wedding chicks have great items for purchase. And they aren't that expensive either. You can also buy the bags online wholesale and then do the iron on transfers to personalize them. It depends on how crafty/how much time you have.
