We are actually looking at the Royal Cancun but going to stay next door at the Gran Caribe whilst over to visit the Royal...cant wait!

This woman said that they would honor 2010 rates for our May 2011 wedding since 2011 rates aren't available yet. We asked for written confirmation but didn't receive anything.

Fast forward to today...I get an email from my TA who called Doreen...Doreen now says that we'll have to pay 2011 rates even though they aren't out yet. This seems absurd to me...I mean seriously, who signs a contract without the numbers on it??

Did anyone encounter this or have suggestions on how to approach the situation? I definitely plan to push back, I'm just not sure if it would be better to let my TA do the negotiating or if I should call and do it myself.

Thanks for the help!
Hi Becks,

We booked a year in advance and got to lock into the rates. I had to work with Doreen and she was just horrible. I ended up asking to be moved to another sales person. Did you get anything in writing from her?

I would have your TA call and if that still does not work I would call directly.

Jescam and SuperKate,

We did get written confirmation, from someone names Suzanne, that we could lock in at the 2010 rate. BUT, have any of you guys noticed that they increased the prices of the Luxury Package for both 2009 and 2010? They are both $600 more expensive now, the 2010 rate being $3700. Those of you that already booked are fine but it seems like a very strange business practice to increase fees for a year that's practically over!

And yeah, I think the general consensus is the Doreen is bit, um...'speciial'.

 

One more question...I can't seem to get a straight answer from the WC's about fees for guests over 35. Is it just the fee of $30pp on the website or is there a separate fee for cocktail hour and reception?

 

I can tell you girls are going to be TOTAL lifesavers in this process!!!!!!

Hi becks,

The fees are $30 for Real guests and $60 for non Real guests for the reception; $10 for Real guests and $20 for non Real guests.

Hope that helps!

They are supposed to honor the prices at the time we sent them the contract or I will be an unhappy bride!!!

Thanks Jescam,

That does help. I'm guessing that we'll have close to 70guests so the pp charge becomes pretty important! Based on what you said, I guess I can plan for $40 pp above the 35 (including the cocktail hour and reception).

 

Steph and Jescam... From the email that the WC sent me, you guys should def be locked in at $3100...but I would get it in writing and bring it with me to Mexico just in case!

 

I can't wait to start planning the FUN stuff!!!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
