Best photographer for wedding in Aruba

I recently got married (6/25/11) in Aruba at the Hyatt Regency Hotel and Casino. I had the wedding of my dreams and did not have one complaint!!!! All my travel arrangements were made by Destination Weddings (www.destinationweddings.com/) which made the travel arrangements and communication with the wedding planner at the Hyatt stress free and easy. I would recommend my wedding specialist Sharon Kingerski
(skingerski@destinationweddings.com). She was so great getting back to me with any questions that I had and I truly felt that she had my best interest in mind.

I would also recommend my photographer Frank Panaro Photography & Video (www.frankpanarophotography.com). Original I was supposed to book a photographer in Aruba for my wedding but the photographer got booked at the last minute for another party. This resulted in me searching on Google for a new photographer where I stumbled upon Frank Panaro, and I am so happy I did. From the moment I spoke to him I new that I was in good hands. He worked with me to find the right package that fit my needs and budget. Even though Frank flies from Miami to Aruba his pricing was competeive with the photographers that live in Aruba. The day of my wedding Frank was there to capture every special moment. A week later we received the uncopy-righted discs with over 1,500 pictures of our wedding and I am in love with them all.

Thanks for sharing the info about your travel agent and photographer, especially the links to their websites.

Can you please share details about the Hyatt for future brides?

How was the wedding planner? Do you have a contact name? Was he/she quick in responding to emails?
Did you need to guarantee a minimum number of rooms?
Did you receive a free upgrade?
Flowers?
Hair and makeup?
Wedding Reception?
Entertainment?
Did you have any other special events for your guests?

did your original photographer back out of you and take another job instead or was there some type of an emergency that could not be avoided?

Thank you Michael and Andrea. I shot an amazing wedding today in front of the Screaming Eagle Restaurant. Tomorrow we are going to Trash the Dress.
