[@acpowell12]

Do you have the name or link for your dress? I really like this one!!

[@sweetii625]

Congratulation on your wedding! Everything looked beautiful. I'm thinking of having my wedding at this resort as well. Since you got the complimentary luxury package, How much extra per person did you have to pay to have a private reception? Thanks!

[@themonifahsymone]

Thank you so much! For children over 3, we paid $10 and adults $20!

[@tamikaferguson1743]

Hi, did you fly out your make up artist / vendors?

[@vickersebony]

What type of shoes did you wear for your beach ceremony? What material was your bridesmaids dresses?

[@themonifahsymone]

I wore bridal sandals that I got from Amazon! I can link them for you in the description. The bridesmaids dresses was satin material! They started sweating quick during pictures so wouldn't recommend in heat lol.

[@alexuszhane6241]

Great video! How did you choose the resort? There are soo many to choose from

[@themonifahsymone]

I had a long list of pros and cons! Royalton was more aligned with our budget and gave us more freedom with their wedding package.

[@luvlylee0325]

Hi where did you get the personalized bags from?

[@themonifahsymone]

Hello! I got them from a vendor here in Michigan through my wedding planner. But I know they have plenty like them on Etsy.com!

[@luvlylee0325]

I don’t see a part 2 was hoping to see the wedding. Why did you opt out of Puerto Rico? I am considering a small wedding there.

[@themonifahsymone]

Hey! I answered your question in my Part 2 video that will be live today at 5PM! I'm sorry it took so long!

[@jasminecole9035]

Do you have a link for your wedding planner

[@themonifahsymone]

Yes, here’s her IG: instagram.com/a.good_eventplanner?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= IG Name: a.good_eventplanner

[@tyt9343]

How was the price for the wedding planner? Expensive? And how were you charged (like hourly or is it a flat rate)?

[@themonifahsymone]

A flat rate and it was very affordable compared to my previous rates. Almost $4K.

[@geniferx]

Does it include the decor and vendor fees or only for their service?

[@virginiamcosta]

Would you mind to share with us all of your wedding people, Instagram will help us a lot Planer, hairstylists, resorts, packages, photographer, ceremony and reception. Please 🙏

[@meghanmazer9442]

Where you worried about hurricane season?

[@themonifahsymone]

I was for a second but I did some research and hurricane season usually ends in October anyway. So, we were in the clear! lol

[@daisymay462]

Very helpful. So you guys paid for your guest?

[@themonifahsymone]

For the regular wedding stuff, yes. Anything else like their flight and stay, no we didn't!
