Help!!!
Good afternoon all!
I am a new member who is being married in January in Aruba. I have a few issues that I cannot make a decision on and am seeking a little assistance from all of you past brides, current brides or anyone who knows anything about planning an Aruba wedding.... I have a few concerns below and wondered if anyone could elborate on what they did for these item(s) for their day. Our wedding day is on January 8th and the ceremony is being held at the Eagle Beach with reception on Renaissance Ocean suite beach immediatley to follow. Here are my concerns;
a) DJ - Who can recommend a fabulous DJ who plays modern great music and likes to have fun with it, as I know there are a few guests looking to make a speech and so he/she will need to allow for microphone use. (I am being recommended to use DJ Tino, has anyone used this fellow previously or has any comments as they would be greatly appreciated)
b) Photographer - 3 came recommended by my wedding planner, problem is without one of them having a portfolio and the others shooting wedding's not on Eagle Beach how can I tell who is the better photographer? I have reviewed a few past wedding sample pictures that I was given, but just can't pick my photographer. if you have had a great experience or better yet have pictures I could see shot by your recommended photographer I would love to see them.
c) Favors - HELP! lol I am taking our immediate bridal party on a boat cruise, jeep tour and fine dining dinner downtown to say thank you but for the rest of the guests am stuck on what to give.... If anyone has any sugesstions please feel free as it stands right now I am looking at ordering the following for a personalized beach bag for every guest;
* star fish bottle stopper
* bag of turquoise candies (our wedding colours are turquoise, tan & white)
* throw away camera with flash
* personalized silk fan (turquoise) that is meant to be taken to the ceremony on the wedding day
* palm tree cookie cutter
* welcome info on the plan for the week with excursions, wedding day schedule etc.
Feedback on any of the above would be awesome as I am just down tot he wire with only 120 days to go!!!!!!
Thanks so much!
