Fireworks?
Vika replied to AndreaBru's topic in Destination Wedding in Riviera Maya, Cancun & surrounding areas
We had fireworks at our wedding in Now Jade. We loved them and so did our guests. I thought it brought something special and different. We used www.pirotecniacancun.mx. Maritza was very quick to answer any questions and any emails I sent. We did package 4 that included 8 multicolored shell bombs(big size) and 12 color comets. As well as 4 sparklers. OUr DJ ended up bringing sparlers so they just added more fireworks at the last minute. We paid $1400. Hope this info helps. -
Destination Weddings Perceived As Selfish?
Vika replied to hp520's topic in Wedding Etiquette, Traditions, to dos
don't let what other might say or do get to you, at the end of the day, it is your special day, a day that you will remmember and treasure forever. You have to do what you want, and exactly how you want it done, so that you do not regret it later on. people really do show their true colors when it comes to weddings, and at the end of the day, do you really want those people that bring you down in your life? -advise that was given to me, that helped me through all the drama -
Dress Dilemma. .can't Decide
Vika replied to MJTK's topic in Destination Wedding Dresses, Wedding Attire & rings
i love number 1 and 2, but if you didnt have your "omg this is it" moment, maybe try some more dresses on, you can always go back to these 3 if you don't find anything else...i went to a lot of places and tried on a bunch of dresses and found 2 that i was like hmm i like them, maybe i just won't have that omg moment, and then i tried on one dress and that was it, i was set on that one...so maybe search more? -

First Dance - Plans For All You Ladies?

we were thinking about taking dance classes and choreographing a dance, but then we decided that we wanted to enjoy our first dance as husband and wife instead of worrying that we will mess up a move -
Process Of Getting Legally Married
Vika replied to nadiakat17's topic in Wedding Etiquette, Traditions, to dos
we were planning on doing that as well, since my husbands brother got ordained, so we were just going to sign the papers in mexico on our date, but you needed to put the address of where he did it and iut had to be in our state, in our county. After going back and forth and thinking if we should do it or not, we both felt that even though the goverment will probably never find out that we were in mexico on that day instead of our county where the papers will say we were, we didnt want to "start our married life" with a lie, so we just went to the courthousea few days before we left for MX, in sweats, and got it over with..it felt as far from "real" as possible, so we didnt mind. -

we did an atv excursion, it was a lot of fun. they pick you up, you ride the atv's, then stop by a cave, see monkeys, and at the end jump into a cenote(zipline). it's awesome! We had 20 people going, so we had it private and they did bride and groom for free. We do this excursion every time we are in mexico. http://www.junglejimatvs.com/tour.php?tour_id=1 -
@@LisaAnthonyPoppy ya it was a lot of money to spend on just video, and we went back and forth deciding if we should get it or not, but for us it was really important, so we justified that spending. you might be able to find another videographer for cheaper

i just looked at the wedding planning guide that I was sent that was 2012-2013 and it said Bride, Groom & Witnesses must arrive to Cancun 3 working days prior to the wedding day (Saturdays, Sundays & Holidays do not count) depending on when you reserved your date, i think you can argue with them that this used to be 3 days when you reserved and they should honor that for you. -

Danielle, I was pretty sure that it was 3 days as well, but in their planning guide it says: Bride, Groom & Witnesses must arrive in Cancún 4 working days prior to the wedding day (Saturdays, Sundays & Holidays do not count). Symbolic and non-legal ceremonies allow flexibility for arrival date. Please speak with the wedding coordinator to discuss requirements. -
