Hi there, We just got married on the beach on March 30th. Monica was our wedding coordinator and she was AMAZING. We had 24 people and a lot of family with surprises along the way. Monica was able to satisfy everyone's requests (and they weren't easy)! From the sounds of it, we were on the bigger side and had more going on then most weddings. It was FLAWLESS. I can't say enough great things about the wedding. We had the ceremony on the beach, where my brother and sister in law played guitar and sang (all of the audio equipment was perfect!). We had cocktails on the Terrance (delicious!) and private dinner inside in the Tapas. Of all the restaurants, this was definitely the best one to go to. The view, the privacy, the space was perfect. We hired a steel drum band from outside of the resort and they were SPECTACULAR. They made the party! Everyone was dancing! My husband ran back to our room at one point and said he could hear the music from there!!! We had lobster for dinner - sooo good! At some points people couldn't decide whether to sit and eat the delicious lobster or to dance to the music! They performed a coffee ceremony - with fire - for us. Everyone thought it was beautiful. Monica also offered us an upgraded cake which had the reviews of "I'm not really a dessert person, but the cake was DELICIOUS!" We did our speeches and a DVD presentation at the beginning of the dinner. First dance and father/daughter, mother/son were right after dinner. It all went off without a hitch.

I'm getting married on March 30, 2012 and have worked out most of the planning. I have the pricing documents for the packages, hair/makeup and photography. You can email me at [email protected] if you want me to send them to you.

Hi everyone! My fiance and I have looked through a ton of resorts and I think we have finally decided on Catalonia Playa Maroma for our wedding! It fits our price range (and our guests') and it looks absolutely beautiful! I'm glad to see a few great weddings on this forum... it was getting a little scary reading the forum from page 1 and seeing how many people changed their minds on the resort. Our wedding isn't until the end of March 2012, so we have lots of time to sort out the details. I'm so excited!!
