Has anyone else seen the new canopy? If so, what do y'all think? I personally think it looks nice but my fiancÃ© doesn't care for it much.

Cri Cri sent me the photos too . . I think its pretty big! I liked the smaller one with the white flowy dressing on it. What are our options for beach ceremony? Is this it?

I'm not really sure what the options are. I'll be down there getting married in one month so I will be bringing back lots of info and photos. I am going to try to do a really good review of the resort/wedding. I feel like there are not enough recent reviews and also not enough photos of the different areas....mostly it's just the gazebo.

Would one of you ladies mind posting the photo of the new canopy so we can all see?

CriCri · April 25, 2012

The first one is the new, the second is the old

I hope the second one is still an option ... I prefere it.

We're getting married at the Gazebo, so take my opinion with a grain of salt if you wish, but I LIKE IT!!! The dark wood is beautiful against the lighter colors of the sand, ocean and sky. It also looks more substantial and permanent. The old one looked like something temporary they popped up on the beach. Granted, it looks a little plain without any added decoration, but so does the old beach setup and the Gazebo. I think there's a lot more you can do with the new one to dress it up. I immediately thought of these ideas for you guys (all taken from this site)...

Colored draping. Anything with color, whether it's flower or fabric will pop against the dark wood.

Crystals, crystals and more crystals!

The crystals are to die for, but I love the big tropical leaves with the white flowers at the base too. Those would like nice in the front on each side.

Strands of flowers for a more romatic look....

This makes me want to change my location. It's definitely different than what you were all planning for but there is a lot of potentional!

I would like very much see some pictures of the new canopy decorated with flowers and fabric.

Anyone (included photographers) have any pictures?

I just saw a photo that was recently posted on tripadvisor and it has the new wedding arch thing. It is decorated with tulle or some type of fabric and it looks really nice. The photo is a little blurry but it will give you a good idea if you want to check it out.

Hey Guys, does anyone know how many songs you need to have picked out from beginning to end of the ceremony? I tried to ask Cecilia earlier this week but I guess she is busy. I have no clue how many I need for before the bridesmaids walk in and when everyone is sitting down and all of that. Thanks!
