The Now Riviera Cancun

Thanks for the responses!! Do any past brides or current have a wedding program that they made that I can see. Trying to figure out the order of things for the ceremony?

Hey Everyone! My fiance and I have been debating between Now Jade and another resort, we are just beginning our search and this site seems to have some really good information. We are planning on having between 10-15 people at our wedding. Does anybody have suggestions for flowers or photos outside of the resort. Also do you know if they do live video feed, my fiance and I would love for our families and friends who are unable to come to be able to watch.

 

Thanks!!

Sarah

I tried to get Angel from the salon/spa to do my hair and make up, but he isnt working that day. Does anyone else have any recommendations?

I"m getting married next weekend and apparently it gets almost pitch black at 5pm (hate daylight savings!)!! So I opted to have my ceremony at 3..then do picturs afterwards until 5pm... Then I chose to do my cocktail at 6 and dinner at 7. I know there's a gap in between the ceremony, but i had to make sure to have enough sun time after our ceremony..so i'm assuming ppl will just hang out around the bar..or take a break in their rooms?!?!

Does anyone have an idea on who should typically get a tip after the wedding? WC, DJ...do photographers and videographers normally get tipped as well?? Is there anyone else? I noticed they already have a service charge for the food and beverages.

I have heard that people usually tip the WC but as far as the DJ, photographer, and videographer go I don't think that is as necessary as you are already paying them to be there. Unless of course they provide a spectacular service then I may throw so money there way. That's just my opinion though, I'm not sure of the proper etiquette.

Thanks for your input! That's what I was actually thinking too...but I didn't want to seem rude or super cheap!!

Hi fellow brides!  I'm getting April 6th, but I'm hoping to find another bride getting married April 4th, 7th, or 8th who still needs a photographer.  I'm planning on bringing Sara Gray but she said that if I can find another wedding for her to shoot while she's in Mexico then she'll give us both a great deal.  (less than the local vendors!)  PM me if you want more details!  http://www.saragrayphotography.com/ She's been featured on some of my favorite blogs...style me pretty, wedding chicks, grey likes weddings, etc.
