No, you do not need to pay per chair if you are just using the standard chairs. We had 39 chairs and there were no additional fees. -

If you have long hair and want an updo, make sure they use elastics to hold it up if possible!!! The girl only used bobby pins on mine and within hours it was falling out and a mess. but it looked great right when it was first done! i would change that forsure if i could relive the day again. We used round tables that seated 8-10 people and purchased our runners of ebay (seller vlovelife - we bought 10 Sheer Organza Table Runners 12" x 108") -

Really? We booked our wedding at Now Jade through Westjet Vacations and we ended up getting a refund of $1,400+. This was in October. -

I may have just harassed our photographer for another sneak peek - here's one of the shots she just sent us. This wall at Now Jade is amazing for silhouette photos and I'm sure many of you brides have similar photos to this. Love love love love, can't wait to see the rest of them soon!

I'm not sure about the cake - but here's the gluten free (and vegetarian) menu selections I received when planning my wedding last year. Shouldn't be a problem to request any of them or mix and match. -

We had tealights in Castaways no problem. They were enclosed in metal lanterns we brought down from Ikea. -

Funny, I faced this EXACT same dilemma. I ended up wearing a veil for the ceremony as well as a flower (but on the opposite side of my head as I was standing, so it wasn't visible during ceremony), and then had the veil on just for a few photos and then took it off so just the flower was left. I had been worried about wind and the veil blowing everywhere, but it honestly wasn't an issue, and was even weighted down a bit by some crystals on it. You can see what I mean in the video we had made (should be at the top - Kim & Chris) - http://limelightstudios.ca/blog/ -

@@A7Xtrish - the wedding coordinator had someone handle the music for us during the ceremony only. They did a good job using the WeddingDJ app we had. I gave them a printed out list of songs just in case it didn't work or was unclear for some reason. We had to ask a guest to be responsible for the music for us during the reception though, since we didn't have a DJ. -

Thank you! We sure had a lot of fun with the piñata! The video was done by an outside vendor. The videographer is based out of British Columbia, Canada, but I know he does travel occasionally for work! We did have the divine package, but we chose not to use the videographer at all, since we had our own. -

We had 39 adults and didn't have to pay anything extra for set up (except a $40 fee for chair bows). That's a big group though! Your idea of dinner on their own sounds reasonable to me! Then you have more time for dancing/partying anyways! -
@@vanessav53 Sorry for the late reply! He didn't need anything, as it was just a symbolic ceremony. For a legal wedding in Mexico we wouldn't have been able to use him. We're doing a legal wedding in Canada.

I believe you can pick two entrees, but if you have guests with special needs that would be considered separate. We had a guest with allergies to shellfish and we were able to have him served something totally different. You'll probably want to confirm that in writing from the WC though! They provide white linens, but anything else you can rent from them (agree with the other post, very expensive), or you can bring your own. We bought some off ebay for a fraction of the cost of renting and brought them down with us. I was just able to resell them this week to to help recoup some of the costs! -

We had Ariandna and Fernando, they worked together and both were really good.
