We kept going back and forth between which resort we wanted. When asking our TA how to compare the two this is what she had to say in an email. "As for the differences between the resorts it will be more of a sense of the 5's will be in Playa, so it will be a more active resort and the other onewill probably have a more relaxed beach feel to it. The beach at 5's will also be larger" I left it up to my FI and he chose The Fives. Are there any other Azul Fives brides out there?

Dear self, Stop stressing over this wedding that is over a year away. You are supposed to be enjoying this engagement! And get off the computer and get to THE GYM you know how bad you want to lose the weight. Yourself.

Sorry don't want the starfish anymore...they are all yours girls

I'll take the starfish!! Just Pm'd you!

So I loved the idea of sending my future bridesmaids cards in the mail to ask them to be in our wedding party. Only problem is I DONT want them to feel obligated incase they are not able to make the commitment to come with us to Mexico. I'm sure there are girls on here who have given these cards before..So I am just curious as how to word it in a cute way that I would love for them to be my bridesmaid but without the pressure? Any suggestions?? Thanks you girls ROCK!!

Congrats on the dress..I have mine and am getting married in a year!! Just stop looking at dresses and you will have nothing to worry about!

I know depending on the amount of people you can have a reception at the Spoon restaurant on the roof of the resort... but its not private. We wanted private so we could have a DJ and dancing. Here is the link for all of the amenties they offer.... http://weddings.lomas-travel.com/planning/index.php Oh my gosh thank you!! This link is awesme are these the amenties for all of the Karisma resorts??

Cool sounds like a lot of you girls like the Sensatori...I'm going to have to check into that place too! Does anyone have pictures of the wedding reception and ceremony locations for the sensatori

Check it out on their website All Inclusive Cancun Vacations - All Inclusive Mexico Vacations - Riviera Maya Resorts - Karisma Hotels By the way that's awesome that you have that many ppl booked for March 09!!!!!

I love how modern it is and the roof decks of the presidential suites would be perfect for throwing a pre wedding bash! THANK YOU THANK YOU for making me look at this one. We go in September so I am going to see if we can do a site visit. We are already going to Azul Sensatori which also looks nice. Do you know how they differ in price? Thank you again! Arent you excited!!!! Let me know if you are able to do a site visit...I wasnu't sure if a site visit would be possible until after they open in December..if you find out let me know!! Btw when do you plan on getting married??

The Azul Fives is opening Dec.1st, so they are runnign an amazing promotion to get people to stay at their resort. We are planning on getting married in October '09 and our TA quoted us $1000 pp for 7 days..def a price that people will never see again!!

Quote: Originally Posted by Maura you absolutely dont have to do one. i'm not. we are having ONE wedding, and its in mexico, and if people are too lazy, cheap, or whatever other BS reason to go, why should i shell out money to throw an extra party just for those people WELL SAID MAURA!! At first we were thinking to have an AHR, but the more and more we thought about it it wasn't really worth it! We are inviting 150 people to our wedding, and I bet 50-70 people don't come. We are having a reception after the wedding in Mexico, and to have all those people again at our AHR plus only those extra 50ish people doesn't make sense. An AHR isn't in our budget...the party is the most expensive part! We are having our legal ceremony in my parents back yard before we leave for Mexico, and the only people who will be there are our parents,siblings,and grandparents who aren't able to fly to Mexico. Best of luck in your planning, don't feel obligated to have a reception for the people who can't make it to your wedding!!!!!!

LOL I def. have a few things I could sell. Thanks for posting this!!

WOW WOW WOW!! Those pictures are breath taking Amy! I love the picture of the two of you dancing..looks like something out of a magazine!!

Seriously I suck at posting pictures on here...I'll try again

So my FI and I STILL have not picked a resort but we have narrowed down our options, and one of them is the new ai resort in Playa Del Carmen called Azul Fives. My TA told me abou this resort today..so I am excited. The resort is said to be opening on Dec 1, 08.The neat thing about Azul Fives is that they offer both AI and EP!! Just curious if there are any other brides to be out there that are considering this resort I am a little nervous about it being new, but I'm guessing that they should have major issues figured out 10 months out when we plan to get married in Oct 09. She assured me that they will go above and beyond for weddings at their location because they are a karisma owned resort. Is anyone else considering Azul Fives?? Check out some of these pics!! (obviously most of these are computerized model pictures of what things will look like but you get the idea) IMG]http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m344/ericaandsy/map.jpg[/img] IMG]http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m344/ericaandsy/king.jpg[/img] IMG]http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m344/ericaandsy/twofullls.jpg[/img] IMG]http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m344/ericaandsy/tfv_renders_20.jpg[/img]

I will buy the fans!!

There are pictures of a wedding here Photos of Paradisus Riviera Cancun, Puerto Morelos - Resort (All-Inclusive) Images - TripAdvisor and the resort site is Paradisus Riviera Cancun | All Inclusive Cancun Vacation Packages Those pictures are on tripadvisor if the link doesn't work. Thank you for those links! The pictures from trip advisor were very detailed..awesome!! Thanks again!!

We are planning to do one bag per room. My FI feels the same way as yours it's alot of money to spend and we are already spending so much money on other things. BUT at the same time it's a nice thank you to your guests for making the commitment to be at your wedding. try these two sites!! Party supplies, crafts, party decorations, toys: Oriental Trading Minimus - For All Your Travel Size Item Needs Good luck you will find a bunch of other websites and ideas on here to make things cost effective!!

I wouldn't have liked them right there during the ceremony though. They were far enough back that i never noticed anyone was watching until i saw the pictures & video. there have been some very private ceremonies i believe. isn't the ana y jose place very private? Hi Morgan! I am so excited to see your video...the description of the lagoon sounds amazing!! Which resort were you married at? About the people obviously it's a resort and other people are staying there too, I just don't want people in their speedos gawking...ew!! Do you have any idea where ana y jose were married? Thank you!!
