It is $70 worth from vistaprint for only $17.  I got this same deal a month or so ago to get my OOT bags for my guests.  I got some really, really cute ones for only $2 each - and they are $13 or something each originally.  I also got my magnets from here.  I'm really happy with everything I've gotten from them.  

 

Anything to save us money, eh?  Happy planning!

That's great.  Thanks.  I also considering using a local florist.  They suggested having the flowers delivered to my mom (she can meet them at the door) and saying my mom bought them as a gift to me and therefore avoiding the vendor fee.

 

Has anyone else tried this?

I just (finally) got a quote back from one of the companies I emailed over a month ago asking for a quote and it came back just as expensive as the hotel..

Wow! I have contacted Maya floral but have not gotten as far as pricing. Who did you get the quote from? I heard that Vanesa James is very good, but her min is like $1500!

Hello  brides!! I am trying to envision the space of carnival terrace set up for a reception. I asked Pilar to send me some pics of the terraces set up, which she did send a few, but I still can't get a good idea of where the dance floor is positioned and the cake table ect. I was going to do one long table, but I think I want to set it up in a different way to encourage more mingling and fun! Does any past brides or soon to be brides have any pics they can share or ideas on how they plan on setting up their reception on the carnival terrace. Any help would be appreciated:)

I am not crazy about any of the bouquets that the packages at Now Jade offer. I wonder if they charge more if you change the flowers out, in which case, maybe it is cheaper at a local florist? Who did you contact for quotes?

Hi,

 

Pilar quoted $65 per photographer for a day pass.  So if 2 people come to do the photos, that's $130.00.

You don't have to pay the fee if you are bringing a friend who is staying at the resort as part of your group.
