Goldstein to Be

Evtalbot - THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I just looked at Riu Jalisco and really liked it. It looks like I may be getting married there a few days after you! We'll have to share notes. Who is your wedding coordinator there?

This posting has been so helpful. The photos of RIU are BEAUTIFUL! I'm trying to decide between Beunaventura and Riu. Such a tough choice!

Hi All, My finance and I just decided that we want to do a destination weding. I thought a destination would be less stressful and would allow us to enjoy our time more. I am definitely not feeling that right now. I keep finding places that look good but then I read TripAdvisor and there are some really good and some really bad reviews. Unfortunately, we can't take a trip down to Mexico to check them out because we both started new jobs and our using all of time off to go to other weddings this summer. I am hoping that your expertise and experiences can help me pick a location for my wedding. We are hoping to get married in June 2009 in the PV area. Here's my limited criteria: - All inclusive - Affordable ($700 to $800 for 7 days per person - we have a lot of people on limited budgets that I am hoping will be able to make it) - Size: we anticipate having 60 to 75 people so we will need a ceremony and reception site that can accomodate us - Location: I'd like to find a hotel that is on the beach and is about $10 from downtown PV, and of course I want it to be beautiful I also wondering if you recommend working with a travel agency or hiring a Mexico-based wedding coordinator. I know wedding coordinators here are very expensive but I'm not sure about there. I appreciate any help you can give me! Thanks, Bo

Hi Sunshine, I was wondering what you thought out about Buenaventura? How was your wedding? I'm looking to have mine there in June 2009 and would love to know what you think. Thanks!

This is great! Thank you!

Hi All - I am so excited to join this site. My finance and I have been together for 5 years and got engaged 2 months ago and have decided we want to get married next June in Mexico. I'm excited to get tips from everyone on how to have a fun, affordable wedding in Mexico. Thanks, Bo
