Lisa, I sent an email to Sandra wanting to talk to her about my wedding but I haven't heard back from her since last Friday I think. Does she usually take a while to respond?

She was really good when we first started talking and always responded quickly but she emailed me friday that she would call me on saturday and i haven't heard from her. Not sure if there is something going on down there or not but it was not pressing so i haven't called her but i will probably this weekend as i have gathered a few more questions.

Is there an 800 # you call or the Mexico number? I guess I just want to get some big questions answered so I can put my deposit down on my photographer. I don't want my date to get snagged up.

You can call the resort directly-01152 (998) 872 8888. I called and spoke with Pilar yesterday. I don't think there is an 800 #.

Hi everyone, I'm new to this thread and I'm in the process of planning my wedding at Now Jade (acutally booking today for our date in January 2011) Unfortunately, my date is a little soon and I'm still clueless on a few things. I would love if anyone would offer up input on how you customized your packages. We are going to book the devine package and hope to stay within the 25 guests limit. I am starting to get intimidated by the prices that I see regarding photographers. Has anyone used the photography/videography included in the package? I really can't imagine spending over 1k on photography but I would like good coverage of the day. I am working with Pilar but having a bit of a hard time getting her to answer specific questions...Sorry but I feel a bit like a fish out of water!!

Hi there,

My wedding is at NOW Jade on 12/02/10. So far i have been able to make the following exchanges:

I am bringing my own minister so I got $100 in flowers credit. I also got $50 more dollars towards flowers for not doing the romantic dinner for 2 on the beach that was included.

I am still working on exchanging the videographer for more photography time. Only the ceremony is included in the package. I am trying to figure out if that means 1 hr of time. Pilar said they would exchange 1 hour of photography for the videographer included in the package. I just emailed back to see if I could exchange for 2 hrs instead. I have been reading that they have been doing the reverse. Exchanging the photographer for 2 more hours of video time. So we will see what she says.

I will more than likely bring my own bows/flowers for the chairs. I can find them for 0.60 to .85 a piece over the $5.00 per chair the resort charges.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Jenny

I am thinking of bring my own bows/flowers. Where did you go to get the bow for $0.60 - $0.85 a piece. All the little things we need to add for the wedding is adding up. I am hjaving about 35 people so I am so over budget. As I will have pay over $100 for each additional guest.
