Just wondered if anyone has used DJ Movil? We are getting married in January 2015 and trying to decide between the DJ the resort provides or an outside DJ. Any recommendations?

We hired Disco Movil - we're getting married this July. He's been wonderful, very responsive, etc. I like that they have a music database online so you can start sending in your selections waaaay in advance. 

 

I've heard mixed things about the resort dj, just fyi. Also, it's cheaper to pay the vendor fee and the dj then it is to hire the resort's.

Has anyone used the portable printers that you hook up to the camera and print the 4x6 photos right there? I really like the idea of the DIY photo booth guest book (without an actual booth) but I have no idea how to start it! All the threads are super old! I saw the Fujifilm Instax camera and film, however it prints business card size photos...so I am unsure of that. Anyone have any better ideas? 

 

Also I talked to Juan and he said I can do the Italian lights for $400 vs the $850 charge for the Chinese lanterns....has anyone used these are going to use them? We are having the reception at 6 pm at the Preferred Pool so there isn't much lighting there.

 

100 days left for me and its starting to get real! =0)

We'll be there in two weeks! Anything anyone wants me to check on when I get there? Hopefully I will remember to take lots of pictures of my daughters wedding...I always get caught up in things and don't get enough pictures! Anyone need specific pictures of anything?

Where is your daughters reception? Can you please take some pictures of the Tequilla Terrace? I am very nervous about lighting, wondering if I need to bring some. 

 

Thanks

Her reception is on the Tequila Terrace also! I will be sure to take pictures and let you know! Anything else you want me to take pictures of or check out? I requested and received an estimate on what the final bill would be for 27 adults and 2 children. Let me know if you need prices on anything.

Juan Carlos sent me pictures of the Tequila Terrace the way they light it up for nighttime events (I had only seen it during the day.) If you want the pictures - I don't have enough posts to post them here - just email me. It's robynbrooke81@@gmail.com.
