I received a emal from Michael today AGAIN wanting me to fill out the prepayment/booking form. I sent it back with info on what services i want but told him I'm not comfortable sending CC info online and I would be paying cash.

Hi Ochoriobride,

I see that you're getting married around the same time as me and from Canada. Just wondering if you're bringing a photographer from home, a family member or using the services in JA??

Again, we had professional photographers from home do our wedding for free.

Micheal sent me the first e-mail and we just explained that we were having friends and family take pics. He sent me a reply with the info about professional photogs and how they will be escorted off the premaces and we would have to pay a fee. I again responded thanks but no thanks, letting him know that my photogs may have some pretty nice cameras, but that we didn't want interference from him. He responded with a threatening "we'll see". I was furious. I e-mailed the riu wedding dept with no response. But when we got to RIU we explained to Chandlyn that we had the free package with upgrades and that his services were not included nor were they necessary. My husband let it be known that he would not tolerate this on his wedding day, and we saw Micheal, but walked right past him that day with no problems.

BTW I cannot stress enough how much the free wedding package will save you in the long run, even with the upgrades. We had 30 people. We still got the champaign toast with punch for the kids, wedding dinner at Mammees at no charge, rehearsal, rehearsal dinner at St. Ann's, & breakfast in bed the next morning. Some of the flowers would have been free (a little more with the upgrades), but we went with an outside florist.

Yes we do bring a photographer from home. My FI aunt is a photographer and she is coming at our wedding and she offer us to take the pictures for our wedding!
