Wedding buddies it is:-)!! Lol, we tried to book the day of your wedding but could not get what we wanted. Same here, I have scoured this site and feel like I have so much info, that I feel overwhelmed!! If you have any questions, feel free to pm me, as I will you:-) right now I am probably being annoying to Pilar, because our photographer mentioned maybe having to use a flash for our ceremony and I'm freaking lol!

Lol!   I'm sure they are use to all the questions.  The photographer might use a flash during the ceremony??!  Can you see about switching your time to make it at 4pm instead?  It shouldn't be a problem to change it if you want.

Mlite83: thanks for your input! I'm wondering if anyone knows if they have vases you can rent out and if so, how much? I really don't want to pack fragile items in my luggage nor do I want to leave the resort to go shopping for them there.

Can you please share what site you are getting these real touch flowers from? I'm curious to see what they look like!

You can rent them from the resort but I think it's fairly expensive to do so.  You can always get blume boxes to take with you. They lay flat and you just pop them open, then you can put the bouquets in them.

 I was thinking about the same thing the idea - I really don't want to pack vases so I'm hoping the resort has some to rent!  If anyone knows please fill me in

Hi, I'm new to this thread but I've been reading all the helpful posts. My wedding won't be until early 2014 but I have already started planning the little details. I have not seen anyone do this yet but I was hoping for some opinions. First off, does anyone know how much they charge for a floral centerpiece? Second, what do you all think if I used the bridesmaids bouquets as the centerpieces like in the picture below? Would guests think that's tacky/cheap?

Hi!! The centerpieces are either $65 for a tropical or $85 for Devine. A premium centerpiece is $185!! I know the wedding guide online has some pics for an example. I like the bouquet idea, it's def cheaper!! I have heard of brides leaving the resort and bringing in flowers, which usually is a lot cheaper!! So you could consider that too:-)

 I'm not sure if they have any to rent out, but I know there is a Walmart in Playa Del Carmen. I'm planning on going there and picking up some vases and doing floating candles instead of flowers and then using my bridesmaids bouquets for a little floral touch.  My wedding coordinator at the resort quoted  $65 for centerpeices from the Eternity package and $85 from the Divine. Hope this helps!

Thanks, that helps a lot ladies! Now I have a question about the reservation process. Pilar had emailed me asking me to scan my credit card and the back of it with my signature which they use as the ID. Did everyone else do this? I'm just a little sceptical because I have never heard of this.

 Yup that is what she had us do too.
