Thanks for helping! Just seems ridiculous to have to pay for something just to sit together for such a small group. I emailed my WC and we are having our semi-private reception at Maria Marie as well. Thanks again!

I only have 10 people coming to my wedding in November and would like to have a dinner together at the hotel the night before. Does anyone know how many people you can have at one of the restaurants before it is considered "an event" that i have to pay for? Also any suggestions on which restaurant for the semi-private dinner reception after we get married? Thanks in advance for your help

Does anyone have a photographer that they were really happy with that you could refer me to? Someone who isn't too expensive

The resort photographers are not my personal taste but here is a link to their work ::: Funever Photos ::: You do not have to use them but if you bring an outside photographer than you have to pay the outside vendor fee which is $350 if you booked after December 2. You can have any outside vendors that you would like but you have to pay the outside vendor fee for each one. They offer the mariachi band for the cocktail hour for $700 through the resort. 3. When I went on our site visit we really like Maria Maria's however after seeing Duprke's pictures Pelicano's looks like an awesome spot for a reception. Thanks for the info ! Very helpful!!!

I am getting married at the Royal on Nov. 7th and have a few questions. I haven't been assigned a wedding coordinator yet so i am sure she can answer these for me but i thought someone on here would know already... 1. What are the resort photographers like? Do you have to use them? 2. What about other outside vendors like bands/cakes etc.? I really want the marachi band to play at the cocktail reception in the garden... 3. What restaurant do you suggest for the semi-private dinner reception?
