Because the fiance and I are likely to be civilly married in Canada it would mean a great deal to us if our wedding in Cabo was performed by an active Minister. I was doing some googling and heard of a Mike Gratzke of the (non-denominational) English Church in Cabo. Has anyone had any dealings with him?

You should get in contact with the weddings people. I just returned from a vacation at Cabo Azul and have decided to get married there. It was gorgeous!!!!!!!! The hotel staff could give you an excel estimates sheet for you to work with if you are seriously considering having your event there. But yes that may not be enough. The alcohol consumption costs are a min. of $47.50/person and the food consumption (I'll have to double check on this figure) was about $65.00/person. We were crunching numbers with my fiance and we anticipate a wedding with 40 guests will cost us about $10,000 USD. But that's including practically everything. Having looked at the place I can say it's EXCELLENT value for the money. And the food is outstanding. I can't wait to have my wedding there! Maybe you should get in touch with the staff to discuss your options. All the best!!!

No problem - my pleasure!!! I have some awesome pics from Milamores too but I'm hesitant to post them since I think you have that one covered! lol

A rather large tub! I think that about wraps it up for me. As I noted it's a nice resort that would do a lovely job on any wedding. But it wasn't what I was looking for. It didn't call to me. If that makes any sense . . .

One of the spacious and modern rooms!

View from inside the yoga studio - and yes it was humid! lol

Underneath one of the palapas. This is another even option. They can string decorations on the ceiling like the lanterns you see here.

View of the pool and the swim-up bar

The view of one of the villa type buildings that hold the rooms.

More coming soon . . .

This would be the view from the beach ceremony location. Pretty lovely!!!

This is the beach area most commonly used for ceremonies.

More views of the "beach" area. It's important to note Blue Tulum doesn't have a real beach. It's a concrete area with sand on top of it. As long as you know that going in you should be fine!

The view from the same area . . . the ocean is a beautiful colour in Tulum!

This was one of the areas that could be used for a ceremony or other wedding events. They can cover the jacuzzis and create a really cool space there.

The main restaurant . . . deserted due to swine flue fears!

The pool . . .

The main restaurant adjacent to the pool . . .

The kids area . . .

This is the lobby of the hotel . . .

They're not awesome at getting back to you. In fact I didn't hear from them before I went and was only able to arrange things through the wedding coordinator. And yes Malissa is a great way to get in touch with them. Also, you may want to give them a call as you may have better luck that way.

Okay girlies . . . I've uploaded the pics to my computer and I'm pretty well ready to go. Just have to figure out how to get them on here. But no fear - they're coming!

LOL They were on my mom's camera and the CD with the pictures JUST arrived!!! I'll post them this weekend There are a TON so I'll have to post a greatest hits type deal and if someone wants to see the rest they can email me and I'll post the rest!!

I'm just back from my trip to Mexico. I'll post a better review soon but I stayed at Milamores and I LOVED it!!!!!!!!!!! I left a little piece of my heart there and if at all possible I will have my wedding there. It was such a fantastic place!!!
