Hi,

I think that 'registration districs' are in some places in Europe.

I left that line blank when i completed the forms.

I'm leaving to Cuba on Sunday...getting married on Thursday. Can't wait!!!!! 

I will write a review when I get back.

Hi Cristina,

 

i remember reading that its 3 days too (for the bride, groom and witnesses).

 

and yes - a family member can not be your witness. My sister is my MOH and i had to ask a friend to be my witness.

 

Alicia

Congratulations on your engagement and welcome to the forum.

Happy planning!

Alicia

Welcome and congratulations!

I love playa del carmen good choice! I have not been to those resorts, but I'm sure both are great.

Alicia

hey,

congratulations and welcome. I'm getting married at the same resort in December. Good choice

Welcome and congratulations on your engagement!

Fares and schedules are not available too far in advance. Once the fares come out from the tour operators, you can get a group rate, but not a flight number or departure time (that will be announced later). I cant imaging a TA not wanting to give you a quote.....afterall, they want your $$$

I would consult with more than one TA....just to make sure you get the best price you can get for your guests.

In the meantime, you can book with the wedding coordinator at your resort and send out your STD's....I'm sure there some info on this forum about STD wording.

Good luck!

Alicia

Welcome and congratulations on your engagement!

Thanks for the beach pictures and the additional information. Nice to know there is an option for a rehearsal for those who want it.

Alicia

thank you for the review.

I will consider gettting silk flowers to take down with me for myself and my 5 bridesmaids. I just have to figure out how i'm going to transport them.

Anyone else doing this?

Alicia

Thanks for the pictures! They're beautiful.

I'm sold on having my wedding in the gazebo too.

Alicia

thanks for the info!

Chevy14,

Congrats on your wedding. Happy to hear you had a good time.

Congratulations and welcome!

Congrats and welcome!

Hi,

This is what it says in the wedding package I recieved from the wedding coordinator at the resort;

"Days available for the weddings according to the Lawyer’s Office: Monday to Friday, from 11:00 to 16:00 hours. In case clients request other times or days, it has an extra charge of 150 CUC."

I don't know if this information is still accurate. It seems like the 'rules' and 'procedures' in Cuba change all the time.

Alicia

It's true....I think the weather is key. Both my sister and future sister-in-law have been to the ILA (on seperate occasions) and did not have any complaints. I'm sure they would have warned me if they did not recommed it for my wedding.

At the same time, I know its hard to avoid trip advisor.

Jen, thanks for the pictures.

Alicia

Hi girls,

I emailed Yahimara over 2 weeks ago and she has not responded yet. Is this how long she usually takes now? She use to be much quicker.

We are bringing our own photograper from Toronto. Yahimara knows and did not say anything.

If you want to use the resort photographer, there is a fee. Not sure how much.
