We were married last Tuesday. Everything was amazing. The coordinators are on top of everything. I regret how much I stressed over it now. I'll try to write a review soon. Let me know if anyone has specific questions such as cost break down!!!

"I regret how much I stressed over it now."

 

I'm going to try VERY hard to take this to heart so I can actually enjoy the process!

This is serious advice to really take to heart! Honestly, the wedding coordinators know what they are doing and want to make you happy!! I was pretty relaxed about all the planning and details and it was absolutely perfect, I think it actually made everyone else more confused because every question I was asked prior was.....hmmmm, I'm not sure but it will be fine! I even earned the nickname 'Bride-chilla' lol

 

ENJOY IT LADIES!

I agree. I was completely stressed the week before the wedding, and then my husband told me to stop worrying about things I couldn't control. I calmed down, I gave Carmen all my decorations I brought and showed her a few pictures. Everything was PERFECT...

 

No need to stress. They do weddings daily.

Hello ladies, I can't believe that we have been married 50 days now! It is surreal doing up the thank you vards and going through pictures.

 

Since I have the wedding planning void, I am just in the planning stages of starting an Etsy business (for wedding stuff, I DIY'd just about everything) when we return from our Honeymoon. One of the things I am going to sell is little "emergency kits" for the welcome bags, with tide sink packs, some tylenol, pepto etc if you are interested at all let me know! I can send pictures. Some of the things went over really well and I am glad we did them!

We are getting married at Now Jade Riviera in April 2015. When we booked I didn't put my locations since I hadn't receive a lot of photos or max-min capacity of the reception locations. So Pilar went ahead and filled those spots in for me. After receiving the information we wanted the deck terrace but now it's all booked up and she has us at Castaways. We are a small group of around 35 people and I am worried castaways is going to be too big for such a small group. We want dancing and a dj, but don't want this big open empty spaces everywhere. She has given us the option of the pool side reception and sent us a few photos. We like the idea of the smaller more intimate space but after reading a bunch of posts here we are worried about how loud the beach will be, the bugs, how dark it gets and because it's so small I don't know where they are going to put the dance floor. 

 

 We need help figuring out which area to have our reception. Who has done the poolside reception there and how was it? Who has had a reception at Castaways with a smaller group (35 people with a few kids) How did it work out, was the room really big and empty feeling?

 

I need to get back to Pilar here very soon with my decision. Any suggestion would be helpful.

Thank you.

We had our reception pool side, no bugs, couldn't even hear the beach...but I also don't know where they would put a dance floor. It would be very broken up I imagine...

 

Castaways is a large space, but it's somewhat divided by half wall barrier, so it might feel intimate once it's all set up...

 

We had 20 ppl. And they lit the pool area nicely...it was difficult for pictures though outside in the dark.
