I just e-mailed my TA and told her that it would probably be easier to call the co-ordinator to ge the date secured. (thanks guys). My TA also told me that the two co-ordinators at NOW are mercy and silvia? Mandie- We've decided save the dates are definitely worth it for us to let our guest know ahead of time all the information. Susan- I found a link through the other forums for wedding packages etc. On the one i found there was no mention of a dj. And from what i read it used to include a dj but then they substituted the dj for a soloist. http://www.amresorts.com/wedding_guides/nolpc-wedding-guide.pdf thats a link to the packages i found (not sure if there up to date). For your photographer are you getting one from Dominican? I'm thinking about bringing one from here. I'd like to get my hair done by someone but yeah im with you on the makeup i would rather do it myself. I think we're planning on just skipping out on the sound system and just bringing an Ipod with a dock and get a microphone hook up for it. I believe the package says you get the reception area for 3 hours and than after that you get charged. So after the 3 hours we will just move the party to one of the bars or lobby area. From what i've read most of the "hidden costs" are add ons. Yeah we're in the same boat i want a nice wedding but don't want to have to spend an arm and a leg for it. We were torn between Eternity and Devine but I found the Devine package pretty much included everything you could want. I want to have our reception at the castways restaurant but im not sure if its private? or do you have to pay extra to have a private reception. No matter how much we all stress our weddings are going to be amazing! We are travelling April 22-29. Susan and Mandie when are you both travelling?

Hey Susan, Yeah we are still deciding if save the dates are better for us or not, e-mailing everyone would be nice but we have so many ppl were inviting (so we don't offend anyone). I come from a big italian family so we're trying really hard not to offend ppl. I've decided to make my own invitation to cut the cost, nothing too extreme though (hopefully they come out the way i want them too lol). Hmm yeah once we get our contract I will e-mail our TA and tell her to call the resort. So is Mercy the only wedding co-ordinator at the resort? Ohh that's great to hear, from all of the pictures I've seen of weddings at Now they look great! We were split between Now Larimar and Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Jamaica but we ended up going with Now since more reviews said Now was nicer and service was better. The only thing i'm worried about is the packages? Have you picked one yet? I went and read the other forum and ppl were saying that there were so many hidden costs :S

Hey Ladies, I am also getting married end of April at Now Larimar (just booked it today!!) Date of the wedding is still in the works (our Travel Agent sent out an e-mail to see what's open). How's everyones planning coming along? Any of you guys doing save the dates or anything?
