Nicole - Congrats on your wedding. We are getting married in April 2014 at Azul Beach. Since you mentioned that you have younger children and your guest list is 35-40 people, it sounds like Azul Beach would be perfect for you. If your budget allows, they offer a monthly "Dress Rehearsal" that allows you to visit the resort, sample the food, meet the wedding coordinators and view the wedding locations. We are leaving for our dress rehearsal this coming Thursday and can not wait. Good luck with your planning.
