Any past brides have any advice on if a dance floor is needed on Tequila Terrace? We currently have a lighted dance floor that we are renting with our DJ, but it's an added expense that I sure would like to chop, if possible. Curious how dancing works on the terrace without the dance floor -- mainly, if ladies heels will be an issue?? Thanks in advance!! 26 days to go!!! Weeeeeeee

We're also going with the Tres Leches... read a few reviews and seems to be a winner! Fingers crossed!! 32 days to go!!!! AHHHHHHHHH..... Any last minute advice/reqs from past brides as to things to remember/prepare for, etc.? Trying to make sure I am not forgetting everything and starting to panic HARD CORE about the details. LOL. October is moving FAST!! @@britt1125 How are things coming along for you?! Looks like you're date is just the day before mine! WOOOHOOOOO

I'm November 8!!! Woooohooooooo!!!!!

@vanessav53 - I have only been in contact with Anel -- who intro'd me to Ramon and said he would be my WC. Sure would like to talk to Juan Carlos though if he's awesome!! I am having a heck of a time getting responses from Ramon and it's starting to make me crazy. My wedding is in 86 days -- seems long to some people, but it's GAINING ON ME SO FAST!!! LOL How did you end up switching to Juan Carlos?? Any tips/tricks??

Can any past brides tell us what the total cost per additional person was at your weddings? For adults and for children?? I know it's $99 plus tax and service, but if I do the calculations, that comes to around an extra $30 per person. I am hoping (!!!) that I am not correct. TIA!! I'd also be curious to hear what kinds of total cost past brides have had with weddings that had approx 55 people. Anyone willing to share? I know it greatly depends on extras, but a ballpark would help calm me, I think.

Here's the info I received from Anel: The cost for an additional adult (over the initial 25) for the Divine package is $99 plus 16% tax and 15% service. Breakdown is below: · Basic set up for the ceremony; $5 usd · Champagne toast at the end of the ceremony; $4 usd · Cocktail hour; $30 usd (this fee includes the basic set up, open bar and hor d´oeuvres) · Divine Menu; $53 usd (this fee includes the location rental fee, the basic set up, dinner and 3 hours open Bar) · Cake; $7 usd There is a kids menu, the cost is $25 usd, The option for them is : Cocktail Fruit or Tomato Soup, Chicken Fingers with Spaguetti Or Cheese Burger with Fries and Ice Cream or Chocolate cake. I booked DJ MANNIA for our wedding in Nov. The price is as follows: DJ service $800.00usd (4 hours) and lighted dance floor 12 x 16ft $650.00 = $1,450.00usd Plus $300 vendor fee at the resort Total for DJ = $1750

Can any past brides share the menus you went with? Having a tough time deciding on what sounds best -- not having tried the food is scary!! TIA!!!

My wedding is in November and I am expecting around 100 I think... as soon as I have final numbers, I can give you a pretty solid estimate of what mine will cost! Good luck in the mean time!!! Congratulations, Vanessa!!! So exciting!!! Can't wait to read your full write-up!! Wooohoooooo

For those that hired an outside DJ, did you have to pay to use a power generator? The following is in the contract for one of the DJ's we are talking to and I am not sure what it means: (I hope I can assume that we will not need a generator and that there will be a power supply for the DJ to use on the Tequila Terrace???) Anyone have any experience with this?? We do not take an electric generator for the reception, in case you need one the price is $800 US per event.

Thank you!!! $800 is RIDICULOUS for $12 lights!!! haha oyyyyy Any recommendation on where to buy chair sashes and napkins??

Were there lights provided for the reception? I see in some photos that there are hanging strung lights... curious if this is something we need to plan for or if it's automatic?
