Thank you so much for your incredible review. This was so helpful! We are getting married in September and I was slightly worried about decorations and such. Karisma also wants to charge us extra for one of the free events we are supposed to have, and our budget almost doubled!
Your pictures are absolutely beautiful!! If you don't mind my asking, how did you negotiate the vendor fee? For the same reasons you listed, we are going with an outside photographer, but the $800 fee is really killing our budget.
We are also having some trouble with our coordinator in Miami. She never has any good input, and forgets the things we've already discussed.
As for decorations, did you have any issues with customs? What did you use for centerpieces? Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks so much for taking the time to post this review!
