I purchased mine from paperlanternstore.com. I purchased a few different sizes in a few different colors first (so I could check them out) and I ended up ordering mine through them. They're cheap and the quality is nice. I purchased the irregular ones as opposed to the normal ones, just for something a little different. If you message me your address, I can send you one of mine (since I have a ton extra) just so you can check it out. Shipping was about $10 or so, I think a little less - closer to $8.00; they shipped the lanterns via FedEx and arrived within three days. I'm not sure how it will differ from you since you're in Canada, but I had a great experience with them.

I'm sorry! I was quoted $350 for each additional hour.. that was a typo.

I specified DJ Doremixx when I requested our DJ. Deisy contacted them for me and scheduled them for our wedding.. I've heard nothing about any additional fees outside of the cost for additional hours. I really hope that I still get DJ Doremixx since that's what I was told and that's what I wanted. I would be surprised, though, if they change it on people who are already booked. I've also found nothing on AVI.

I booked DJ Doremixx through Deisy a few months ago and she said everything was fine. I was told I would get two hours of DJ time for the live music I don't really want, then I will add an additional $150 per hour. I have not heard anything else regarding this, so I would assume it is for new bookings.

Haha. I can understand that... BUT.. your wedding, your rules, your way. Don't lose sight of that even though it's easy to do.

I really like this idea, Kristen. In fact, I like it well enough to do this for our wedding. Not everyone will eb able to talk to each other like this, but the same is true if you had a few round tables.

Everything will be lovely. If there's one thing that's been consistent, it's been that you shouldn't worry because everything will be amazing and beautiful. Safe travels! Looking forward to your photos/review when you return. Congratulations!@

Additionally, I traded my live musicians for two hours worth of DJ time. I will be paying the additional fee of $350 per hour after the 2 hours.

I also confirmed DJ Doremixx and they are one of the resort DJs, so you will not have to pay an additional fee. I confirmed that with Deisy before I booked them.

We are getting married 11/16/2013. Congratulations! Happy planning!

Congratulations! I am getting married 11/16/2013. Happy planning! My fiance and I went with the Divine package since we are only expecting 30-40 people, so I can't be of much help there.

Could you please email it to me, too? [email protected] That will be super helpful. Thanks!

What sized did you use for your lanterns? I bought several different sizes, but some of them seem way too big and some way too small.

I'm not sure, but I'm curious about that as well. Also, I wanted the brown set up as opposed to the white. I'm sure that's extra.

Thanks! That does help.. a lot, actually. I think I'm going to give her a call to chat about what I need and what we can work out.
