  1. Hi Ladies :-) here are some additional pics from the reception centerpiee and bride and groom table :-) Centerpieces made by Resort; however, the light branch lights we provided and the silk orchids floating in the water.
  2. Hi Donna around $20 or so...if you have a travel agency they should set up transporation.
  3. Hi Ladies I did starfish themed wedding and mostly used it for the favors, accents, invitations, groom boutinieres, bridesmaids hairpieses and it looked great.
  4. Hi Ladies here is a picture of our centerpieces we used at Now Larimar Casataways reception. And this is the table set up for our bride and groom table.
  5. Yes dates closer to the wedding they are more attentive; however, pay attention to the busy wedding season and be sure to stay on top of them so they are getting the things you need done. :-)
  6. Hi :-0) Yes you have to pay the vendor day pass which is paid at the resort included in total bill invoice, FYI its per person.
  7. This is a picture of our centerpiece at the reception. This is our bride and groom table:
  8. This was our Centerpiece at Castaways Now Larimar for our reception and guest table set up. BElow is the bride and groom table:
  9. Yes Coco drinks were additional $4 and we used those as a welcome drink to the cocktail party. We had the bar that was included in the divine package and paid additional for extra hour. We had the champagne served to all guests immediately after the ceremony. IF the liquor is provided at your bar they can make a Tequila Sunrise, Rum Runner or whatever for everyone in a standard drink cup if you would like at the reception...If I remember correctly. We opted for Buffet due to our large group and the sit-down dinner taking up to much time of the reception with all the courses and the food was great. I did use now for the chair, tablecloth rentals etc just didnt have enough time to look elsewhere.
  10. @worstbride Hi there, I was the same way obsessed with only having Louboutins for my wedding this past Novemeber and was soooooo close to getting them; however, I am so glad that I didn't because my wedding shoes I ended up throwing AWAY because they got trashed from the pictures and reception etc...My heel kept going thrugh the grass etc etc...I loved my wedding I ended up getting and saved around $1,500! Now I can get Louboutins that I can wear more than once :-)
  11. Hi @Jennifer8913 Oh OK was not sure which site or agent you used...we used destinationweddings.com @EJM17 (Erica) Thank you So much. You are more than welcome to PM anytime and I most certainly can send you my email :-) Your photographers take beautiful pictures also...I have seen their work and absolutely love them too! Castaways was a battle for us because when we orginally went to the resort for a site visit, it was not a cost to rent it. A month later it changed and it was $5,000; however, with my family being loud, crazy, party animals we truly needed and I wanted to feel like we were out in the open but not in the sand so that was our best option....and my parents paid that portion as a gift so it worked out to our advantage luckily :-) The pool also would have been perfect minus the closing down by 10:30ish you know? OMG So excited for FRANCINA I didnt know she was preggers! She must have gotten pregnant around our wedding time!!!! Poor thing our wedding was loud crazy people LOL.
  12. @maybeachbride Thank you Very Much. Got married 11/2/2012 at Now Larimar Punta Cana, dress was Alfred Angelo one shoulder Rapunzel dress:-). I have an album of additional wedding pictures on my profile you are more than welcome to look at and I will also be adding additional pictures of course with the bridal party etc so the colors are more visible. Here is one of me and the Bridesmaids at Now Larimar in their Coral Dresses jumping on the beach:-)
  13. Hi Erica, Francina is amazing and super sweet! We used Pastor York as well and he was wonderful, he does a beautiful ceremony. We also used DJ Mannia and they did a fab job for our reception at Castaways. WE used Eclipse for the cocktail hour which was great because it was shaded from the heat and sun during the day...we did not really do to much decorating for the cocktail hour since the location is already set up as a lounge, we had decorative cocktails (the coconut drinks) and a TRIO of guitarist for entertainment and the high top tables covered which was sufficient and stuck with the ceremony and and reception as the main part of the decorated events and worked out beautifully. Although we never made it to the cocktail hour because we were doing pictures forever lol. We also had a pretty big event had 94 guests and turned out amazing. The weather was also beautiful and the breeze coming into the Castaways couldn't have been better! Good louck with all your planning, Francina is truly amazing.
