Decor Questions

[Kayepr]

Hey guys, I am new to all of this and so glad I found this site and others to talk to about wedding planning for a destination wedding at The Royal!

 

I am getting married in July, we are doing a beach ceremony, cocktails in the garden, and reception in the ballroom. 

Has anyone discussed decor?  Are there places near The Royal to get decor so we do not have to lug it all down with us, or do most people bring stuff in from home?

 

I am most concerned about material to decorate the alter and chair covers/ribbons. 

 

I am confused with what The Royal provides and what I need to get. 

Also, I got the Luxury package...which I believe includes a DJ...but do I book that, or does The Royal?

 

I also saw many people say they used outside vendors for flowers and photography.  Why?  And this was still cheaper including the vendor fee? 

 

Any help at all would be GREATLY appreciated!  Im not one to stress, that was the whole point of going to Mexico...however I am beginning to get a bit stressed because I am confused.

 

Thanks!

Have you spoken to your WC?  It seems they would be the best person to accurately answer your questions.  However, here is the link to the Royal thread which *might* help:
