To me the DJ was really important bc I wanted someone that was going to be able to cater to all crowds and they did. Since DH isnt Latino I wanted all sides (especially the older people) to feel comfortable with the music choices.
Normally the DJ will ask for a must play list and then they take it from there. They can also suggest a ton of songs since that is their expertise.

Hmmm...LQ ! We should have a get together there! i love that place. Guest list name: The Latina Thread. LOL
Anyway, I did finally decide on BM dress. They will be ordering them by next Saturday. I found this place and got it for 184 including alterations! Its a Bil Levkoff. As far as invites...I need your help! I need you to FM me the lady you went to to get your invites. The whole online thing is very stressful! I need to be able to see it in person. Anyway, Cant wait for our January fitting!!!!

My DJ Chevy Music Force was super when we met with him like 3 times in his home, he did the whole play list and all, but was a huge dissappointment
Not what we had heard at all. My DH had to tell him not to play a certain song...I didn't want any rap music at my wedding. Make sure you do your hw and get recommendations on DJ's.

Love DUET...they are my photogs...a few of my epics are in my album. We went with Danny as our photog.
When you meet with Eric he has a pretty heavy accent but he really does try to work with what you want and need...don't let the accent deter you.

Re: Official Latina Brides Thread
HeyMost of my wedding is going to be in Spanish.
The invites, ceremony, etc. ( My FH don't speak a lot of English. lol)
I am having padrinos (usually they pay for cake, but my RH includes it.) The are the witness and party of the bridal party. If you are doing a lazo they are the ones who usually put it on. Also if you are have someone sit up with the bride and groom it is them.
I am also having pajecitos(don't know if spelling right). They a mini groom and bride. (very Cute)
When I started planning my wedding my father wasn't happy because 'no Kids'(unless in bridal party). My father was also upset because he had to invite certain people(we don't know).(no way)
Also we are both Christians so I go to one church, my fh goes to another and my father is a assoc. Pastor in another. People are inviting themselves to our wedding(and their friends).
My FH is 1 of 10 children. My father has 9 sibling i(which each as a min of 3 kids. Some have 10+). Thats just part of my family. So I totally understand the too much people.
My RH don't have a Spanish station. They do have paella and arroz con pollo for the CH.
Also if anyone knows a great place to get a Tres Leche cake please let me know. (hopefully not too expensive)
Evie
p.s thanks for posting butterfly kisses in spanish. I had been looking for it every where and couldn't find it.
