I am having my wedding here, and wish I knew in advance what a pain they are to work with. I hope others come here so they know before they choose!! They did let us know in advance that there is a mandatory 1h cocktail hour before returning to the chapel for the reception, but they did *not* tell us that *EVERYONE* is required to pay full price for the bar option, regardless of their age or whether they drink. For example, they are forcing us to pay for:
- A pregnant woman
- Members of Alcoholics Anonymous who have not had a drink in 40 years
- A person with down syndrome
- People who do not drink as part of their religion
- People who are underage to drink in the country of Mexico (which I might note is illegal to serve them, so how can they charge for them?)
And for 1h of cocktails, 1h of dinner, and 2h of dancing, at $28.20 per hour per person (for wine beer and well cocktails) or $22 per person per hour for wine and beer only, that comes out to be an INSANE of money that we are being forced to pay for absolutely nothing. They will not negotiate at all.
It will be beautiful, and it will be a ton of fun I am sure, but the management is absolutely impossible to work with. They wouldn't even allow us to put wrist bands on people who were going to be drinking. I would suggest going elsewhere unless you plan to have no bar package at all, or you have a group of people who all drink enough to make it worth it.
