Hello Ladies! I am working on planning my August 2018 wedding. After a few life changes we are now considering a new resort. We are trying to decide between Azul Fives and Azul Sensatori. Can anyone tell me why they decided to go with Azul Sensatori as their resort? I am working on my research and all responses will be appreciated.

Did you make your paper products (STD's, Invitations, Programs, Etc)? Also if you did what printer did you use? I am pretty sure I have to purchase a new one for these projects. I've been researching printers all day. I am sure I will dream of printers tonight

Thank you both very much for that, I feel better now.

Hi! So glad to meet another 2018 bride We also have decided on Now Sapphire for our 2018 wedding. I've spent countless hours on this site and it gives you so much valuable information. Now Sapphire plans beautiful weddings and you get a lot for your money there. We have a strict budget and are planning for no more than 35 guests. If you are willing to do the research you will not be disappointed.... there are a lot of ways to cut costs to make sure you have your dream wedding within your budget. Also we are going through Wright Travel Agency, we have Babs as our TA and I must say she is AMAZING. If you haven't already, check out Now's special offers http://www.nowresorts.com/offers they have some good promotions that will help you with costs as well. There is a forum on here dedicated just to Now Sapphire there are a lot of pages but lots of good information and the brides are very nice. https://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/topic/62152-now-sapphire-weddings-formerly-paradisus-riviera/ Happy Planning

Hey Guys! I hope everyone is doing well So time has passed and it looks like we are about ready to finally book our date. We had to change our date (which we are currently waiting for the new prices to be sent to us). For my past brides how did the process of paying the deposit go? In one of the first emails i received from Anel she attached the credit card authorization form and I will admit I had a hard time understanding some of the lines. It makes me nervous putting all of my information on the form and sending it. I assume that that is the only way to get it to here so I will get over the nervousness. Did anyone have any troubles when it came to the deposit? Those photos you attached are of the bridal suite?? It looks very nice!

I had no idea they had a bridal suite. Im interested in more information as well.

Sounds great! We will be doing pretty much the same thing.

Brides Did you make Welcome Bags for your guests?

@@Gabyc22 Yes photos would be great! I was looking at Generations, Hyatt Ziva (Out of my price range), Beach Palace, And Hard Rock. If I was to choose another resort it would be Beach Palace I like the perks they offer. But another thing im quite picky about are the suites. I want a oceanfront room with a jacuzzi on the balcony & Now sapphire offers it at a reasonable price. I was surprised how some resorts dont even offer it. Date wise we were actually hoping for Aug 18 2018 but it being hurricane season scares me. So we went to May 2018

@Gabyc22 I was done researching and we planned on booking our date and blocking our rooms next month, I started buying my supplies for my save the dates and everything. Then a few more resorts popped up and now I am re-thinking my decision. I hear a lot about the seaweed and that scares me because I do plan on going to the beach. But in all honesty that is the only con I hear about when it comes to this resort. Part of me feel that this is just me having the jitters because this is such a big step. I'm scared of making the wrong decision.

How was the beach? Was there a lot of seaweed?

I am also a 2018 Bride! My location was set for Now Sapphire but I have a few new locations that has caught my eye. Smh all my fault because I can never make my mind up Lol

@@SSpartyof2 Welcome!! I am also planning for a 2018 wedding! This site is soooo helpful you will find a lot of valuable information on here. I am in the US so a few of my details will vary due to our locations but I will share what I have come up with so far. 1) Can anyone recommend a travel agent? I am located in Bowmanville, Ontario (Canada) I am using Wright Travel Agency they are fantastic but also locatedin the US. If you do a little more searching on here you will find brides that are also located in Canada and the travel agents companies they have used. If I come across them I will be sure to let you know. 2) What resorts can accommodate $2000 or less for my quests, but still be reallllyyy nice? I am going to the Now Sapphire Resort in Cancun. Its priced well in my opinion and its a very beautiful resort. I know a few brides from Canada went to this resort with there guests paying from $1500-2000. 3) What price range am I actually looking at? I'd love to stay around the $10,000 limit. At this moment I am at around 15,000 for everything total. Its best to make a list of everything important to you and go from there. Now sapphire has there wedding brochures online for you to see. You get a lot for your money at that resort. 10,000 should be doable.

@@vancouverpetunia I sent her a message..... now to wait for a response, fingers crossed! If you don't mind me asking, was your gazebo included in your Divine Package?

@@vancouverpetunia Okay thank you ill give it a try.
