ClaudetteEdibleCreat WARNING! ((NOT RECCOMENDED))
ClaudetteEdibleCreat, i ordered in june, fast forward to august, no order, no communication from claudette, she basically took my money, closed down her etsy shop! & i had to file a dispute via etsy to get my money back!! (was quiet stressful)

Tux: itailor AAAA (i loved it, everything was as described)

Victorias Family:
https://victoriasfamily.com/AAAA Note: ALL INCLUSIVE PACKAGE: DJ/CAKE/FLOWERS-FRESH/DECOR/FOOD/DRINK & INCLUDED A WEDDING COORDINATOR & HAD A BRIDAL SUITE ONSITE (WORTH IT)
Officiant: AAAA (add on from Victorias Family package - we just paid $100 tip)
Hotel Accommodation: Elara AAA (front desk ckin was icy, but after that all ok)
Note: i called ahead & at ckin informed front desk, i am expecting edible favors that must be refrigerated - ckin lady was b**** & said they did not have a fridge & they would not accommodate & would not be allowed to put them in my room if i was not there. after speaking to a manager they straighten her out (she was like ice) & said they would either place in their restaurant fridge or deliver to my room - Chocolate Poker Chips arrived in 1 peace, undamaged but i was surprised to see a charge of $10 per box (they did not inform me - which i think was cheeky but i let it go)
Welcome Party @ Elara Hotel > we had a 1 bed suite (we had 30 in hotel room)
Welcome Party drinks & Party Bus drinks: Trader Joes
Welcome Party food: Smiths food party trays, ordered online & then picked up
Note: had guest meet at Elara, did a 2 hour party bus, after bus ended had guest come upto room in groups of 4-5 for the welcome party (had 30 total & every one was comfortable, ate, drank - had no issues with music/bringing up food) & once party ended, we bagged up the trash & called the maid to collect, we tipped maid well - no complaints! MAKE SURE YOU TIP)
Honeymoon Cabo San Lucas AAAA - stayed at Pueblo Bonito Sunset - Fabulous!
Note: Sunset Moana Lisa, Quivira Steak House, Pan Di Bucco - a must!
Summary - no hiccups except for etsy seller & Elara ckin, that aside everything was perfect & if i could re-do it all over i would
P.s Victorias Family: Robert, Jackie were AAAA > DJ Tiny was AAAA > Jeanine the wedding coordinator was AAAA > the food/drinks/venue in-side & out was clean & beautiful & guest loved the food & cake
> i HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE
