Hello - quick question for brides that brought down OOT bags.

 

Did you declare the value of the bags on the declaration form, or did you just wait to go through customs and if you were flagged, you just showed your receipts at that point in time?

 

9 days to go, starting to freak out a little on the last minute details!

Thanks in advance!

I did not declare my OOT bags. But I had all my receipts and totals ready for customs just in case.

Can anyone suggest a good photographer outside of the resort that is reasonably priced. We are going to use the photographer that is included in our wedding package to photograph my son's 1st birthday, which is a few days after our wedding. That way he will have a little 1st birthday booklet of photos with him and friends and family. But now I need a wedding photographer, someone that can come while we are getting ready and stay during the cocktail hour and part of the reception. Thank You if someone has pictures from their wedding with the photographer can you a few to me at kylie537@@gmail.com

 

Thank You

Can any past brides comment on the cake? My future MIL is a cake designer. She is making cake toppers for us. When I showed her the pics of the cakes she had all kinds of questions. Seems like I've seen people say there is no need to get extra cake for extra guests. How big is the cake if you go with the 25? Does anyone have any pictures they could share? Thanks!

Wedding was absolutely PERFECT and the easiest thing in the world, I am on honeymoon so I don't want to spend much time online but will happily post and review in a few weeks. The coordinators are absolute pros, they all work together because often your "designated" coordinator will be busy in other meetings or events once you arrive but they all know EXACTLY what is going on and are all involved in your day. They will all know and greet you by name each time you walk in the office and each and every last minute request is possible. When I lost an e-ticket for my son, the hotel wanted me to go back to my room and email them the document to print out, and although this still would have been very easy, Pilar overheard this and just told me to go to her office and use her own personal laptop. We did the Pergola, Mix Bar, And Terrace for locations with Del Sol Photography and Disco Movil so I will be more than happy to answer any questions in the future. I am so excited for you all to get married here!

How was the DJ? We are debating whether to have a DJ or to use our Ipad with music that we have selected. What benefit did you find to having a DJ? Did you give the DJ a song list?

I'm sure this has been asked already, but I cant find anything on it.

 

How many people did you fit at each round table? 

 

Also, what did yall do for the wedding party table? I guess just have 2 of the rectangle tables put together? We are having 8 groomsmen and 7 bridesmaids, so thats 17 total for the wedding party table, including us.  Im in the process of figuring out what I want for centerpieces and I dont know how many I will need!
