Beaches ~ Turks & Caicos Roll Call!

[BethK]

Hi T&C Brides!

 

I'm new to this site...and I obviously don't know how to use it yet!  I am wondering what you guys did for photography?  We have a photographer from home who we would love to have travel with us but it is becoming quite pricey!  Did any of you use the resort photographers?  If so...how does it work...do they cover a full day and then you get to pick what you buy?  Also, did any of you use TI??  I've heard you can use them if you pay for them to be a guest??  I'd love your feedback!

Hi Danir11,

 

I am not going with the Flutter of Romance theme, but I love it.  If I were upgrading my wedding, I would definitely be doing that.  I'm getting married 5/31/12!  Good luck, maybe I'll see you around

Hi Danielle,

 

I'm Yanira, nice talking to you too!  So exciting to meet someone on here that will actually be getting married around the same time.  I am not officially using Beaches Photography, but I may just use them for a few prints of the actual ceremony.  To be honest, I don't personally care for the photo's that they take.  Simply because I'm in the business, and I know for a fact that their equipment is not the best, or their technique.  I have seen some images that have blatant photography no-no's, and frankly they charge just as much as a high-end photographer.  Something that I personally do not think is right..... but, I will say that if money weren't an object, I would go with a package from them and then do the other photographs with TI.  Or better yet, just pay the ridiculous fees to have TI do it all.... But being that I can't..... I just opted to have my photo's done off premises with TI.  I will say that there are some brides on here that have used Beaches and were happy with the pictures, I just haven't encountered anyone who was blown away, which is always the case of brides that use TI.  I have yet to hear a negative review on them.

Jessimd - how exciting!  I have a few more days than you, but can definitely relate.  I haven't done it yet, so I don't have any do's or don'ts to share, but what I will say is that it seems like the process is pretty painless!  I have only heard positive things about the beaches wedding, so relax and enjoy the excitement!  Don't worry about a thing!

Just relax and enjoy EVERY minute of it!!! It goes by so fast

Hi Ladies 

 

I have a question. Did any of you bring your own cake servers with you on the plane I am putting them in my checked baggage but I am still not sure if they will allow this. Can anyone share any info on this? Thank You Happy Planning
