I'm not sure yet what we are willing to pay...
If you could get a photographer that is already located in Mexico, it would help with the cost i think...I will check with these as well!
Thanks again!

Yes, I think it will be cheaper to get someone already in mexico, at least thats what I've found, because if you bring someone with you, the package prices are usually about the same and then you still have the travel expenses tacked on. Good luck!

that's not necessarily true. Keep in mind some packages might not include an album, so if you want an album too, that could be another $1500-$2000+. Which would end up being about the same as travel expenses to fly someone in. So, you could fly someone in if you really wanted. You just have to weigh what's in the packages and what you really want.

I'm sorry Jonathan, I guess I should have explained that better. For the prices of the photographers I am looking at it is less expensive. But if you were going with a more high end photographer, then it may be less expensive to fly someone in, if as you said there package included an album as well.

 

I'm sorry, I have a very small photography budget and I was just referring to the smaller packages that I was looking at.

Does anyone know if Dreams will give you a credit if you go with an outside photographer? It's already included in the Dreams of Love package, but we would rather higher an outside company so we know what we are getting.

I just forwarded that question to my TA....We are waiting on a response from Dreams! I will be sure to post their answer!

I'm definitly not an expert on Dreams packages but....I want to say that if you go with a package it is what it is, there isnt much room for swaping out certain things and adding other things. (I could be wrong though). I have heard of a Dreams bride that instead of purchasing a package (I want to say it was Tammy host) sort of built their own from scratch.

I think what I've heard is that they will work with you to make changes to the package if you want something different, but I don't know about a credit, maybe you can get something else you want instead of the photograher?

Dreams sent me an "ala carte" price list for wedding services. It includes everything from the ceremony to photos and most everything else.

If anyone wants a copy of it let me know. I would attach it here but I am not sure how to upload a document.
