That is hilarious you guys!! Love it! And good to know, b/c one of my BM's & FI's sister both want to have a "souvenir baby". Nice one, Autumn

We're using Teresa at V4L also; she's been really helpful & most people used her to book, which is great. We did find out that at least 1 couple isn't staying at Dreams, but whatever. We actually thought we'd have more defectors so we're OK w/ it.

I just found out that 4 people are not staying at the resort! If its not one thing, it's another, ohh well! I'm tryin to keep my bridezilla under control, HA!

[Jess]

try not to worry about it...honestly it is their loss not yours!

Veronica, we have a couple defectors also. I know of at least 1 couple not staying there, might be more, but whatever. They may just want to do their own thing, which is fine cuz it's their vacation too, but it'll definitely prevent us from seeing them as much as everyone else. Not sure when we'll give them their welcome bag either since we're giving the others either as they check in or at nightly happy hours at Dreams.

Oh well, like Jess said - their loss!

We recently signed our contract and sent out the e-STD form our website (3days ago). So far 11 people say they are in!

Now I am looking for a photographer. I have seen a few but I would like to see more.

If anyone feels like sharing there pics/photgrapher I would love to see them!

Nate Cordova takes a bunch of pics for brides in PV.

 

Here's a sample from our wedding:

I don't have pics yet, but I'd highly recommend Fer Juaristi. I know several girls on the forum have used him (Heather did not too long ago & raved about him). He lives in Monterrey, MX, but is coming to PV for our wedding in May.

here's his website/blog

yay.. I contacted Rebecca and I am finally able to book my date. June 13,2011.. So excited!! Now I have to find a reasonalby priced photog for around $1500.. Does anybody have any suggestions?

[mercypharmd]

Krystal if you find a phorgrapher within your budget please PM me.

I never knew how much photogrpaher's cost. I am in shck and my FI is having a cow!

I would just email some photogs - you'd be surprised how many will come down for travel cots only, especially photogs that have never done a destination wedding! and travel cost only would be about $1500
