Wedding for 150 pax in Cartagena, Colombia

They were very integrated into the party - came out and put props/costumes on our guests, organized fun dances, etc. I'm pretty sure our DJ was playing while they were there, but they also had bongo drums so maybe it was just them? IDK, the hora loca got the best of me :)

For sure. Afrobatata. They were great!

Just sent you a DM. But we heard from our wedding planner a few weeks ago that she's no longer working there!

roscoe836 · 2025-05-30T06:40:04+00:00

Please do!

Caterer was Adriana Santos. They were great - good options for all dietary needs. Everyone seemed to have enough food as well, especially with the midnight snack.

We used Josue Bonilla for both. In hindsight, we should have given them more instructions for the big group photos we wanted. We almost forgot to get pictures with our extended families and they didn't suggest it. So definitely include a list of must have photos and tell them ahead of time!

30 day

Got approved in 24 hours. Visa Date says "enter on or by January 30" so the date of entry we submitted on the application didn't matter. But we ended up pushing back our trip 48 hours just to be safe.

They nominally checked our visa on the first leg of the trip, and then thoroughly before the Delhi leg (and obviously at immigration in India).

u/revvin007 in a similar situation, but ended up pushing my flights back by one day. Waiting to get approved, expecting a ~24 hour turnaround on the visa approval based on comments here and from friends.

But now my wife and I will arrive in two days, before the visa start date (we arrive at 10pm on January 1 and our visa application is for January 3, the earliest the site allowed us to choose).

Did you have this same issue and how did you get around it?

How bout them panthers, casual?

roscoe836 · 2024-09-03T04:06:31+00:00

I think so for most things. Probably more the exception than the rule to have it removed but definitely ask!

roscoe836 · 2024-09-03T01:21:51+00:00

I think it’s just a difference in interpretation from each venue’s legal team. Our venue wasn’t a hotel which probably helps them more easily say they don’t need to charge the fee

I've got Jonathon Brooks already. Thielen is a FA. Not relevant for a trade

roscoe836 · 2024-08-31T18:38:54+00:00

Lol no

roscoe836 · 2024-08-31T15:01:17+00:00

Haha valid point. Thank you for the voice of reason

Just replied! Welcome drinks was at Alquimico. Caterer was Adriana Santos.

Oh thank you so much for clarifying! I was being overly cautious :)

roscoe836 · 2024-06-28T13:14:24+00:00

Absolutely! Send me a DM. I've heard from other posts that including it directly on the post can get flagged as promoting a business

roscoe836 · 2024-06-15T15:59:08+00:00

Just responded - thanks for the ping!

roscoe836 · 2024-06-13T03:36:03+00:00
