Wedding packages & DIY - HELP!!! :)

[wagnernurse16]

Hello all!!! I am SO excited to announce I'm a newbie to the Dreams Resort & this forum - we just set a date for April 11th, 2013 & I'm already feeling overwhelmed. I'm a big DIY fan & we've been going back & forth about what will be worth it to bring/do versus not. For those of you who are going to have or already have had weddings there... do they let you bring in a lot of your own decor or do they want you to pay for the extras? Do you just use the chairs/tables or is there a better, cheaper option? Have you used travel agents & who is a good one for this venue? We're expecting around 50 people & inviting a few more with the likelihood they won't be able to attend.

 

Also, how did you all decide on the package you chose? We're planning on getting our own photographer & my girls are doing my hair & makeup... we're thinking DJ & I'm up in the air about which terrace to use & whether to do beach or gazebo? All in all - I just need experienced help!! Thank you guys so much in advance :]
