Hi Ladies! If anyone is looking for a photographer other than the resort photographer, check out Octavio Montes (http://www.octaviomontes.com/). His prices are much, much better than the resort. Also, his photos are beautiful. I searched for so long to find examples of the resort photographer's pics, and the few I found were not that great. Here's an example of a beautiful pic from his fb.

Octavio is also very responsive to emails. Something I have not found with the other companies I have contacted. I cannot wait to post my planning thread after our big day!

Hi all! Does anyone have any ideas for a group trip? I'm thinking it would be nice to take all of our guests somewhere as a "thank you" nothing too crazy expensive....I was thinking maybe a ferry ride over to Cozumel or a night out at Coco Bongo....anyone have any other ideas or thoughts?? Thanks!

How big is your group? The ferry over to Cozumel can add up depending on how many are in your group.

Does anyone have any input on the dinner/food they choose for their reception??

I know this is old but would love to see the receipts and letters you used if possible

Hi all! I'm new to BDW. Hopefully you guys can help me. My finance and I are getting married May 31, 2014 at the Royal in playa del Carmen. Music is a big part of our lives and we want to fly out a friend of ours to DJ our wedding. He's staying at the resort for at least two nights. He's bringing all his equipment except for speakers. We are asking the resort if we can use their speakers but they want to charge us $950!!!!! To "rent" the equipment bc they are claiming the resort doesn't have this. We are willing to pay the $350 with a discount bc the DJ is staying at the resort. Alejandra is our coordinator, but we are currently asking to speak w a supervisor. Has anyone had any trouble like this? Any suggestions?
