I have e-mailed her more than once over the last two months and haven't heard a word. I am getting nervous- my wedding is in 3 months and we haven't planned a thing with the resort.

We did a legal ceremony and that's all we needed. In terms of birth certs, we needed what called the "long version" (not just your wallet card size) and I just applied to our Provincial Ministry of Health for those!

I don'thave Daniela's but here is the one Adriana gave me romance2@paradisusrivieracancun.com.mx

I can't remember the name of the woman that does hair at the resort but I do remember hearing that she does not speak English and lots of pictures are a must, she takes a long time so make sure you plan accordingly and if you have others wanting their hair done you need to let them know in advance so they can bring others personnel in to accommadate. Whether or not this is still true ... who knows! With all that being said, I believe brides where happy after it was all said and done.

At this point with the fee, they basically give you no other option unless you go off site to get it done.

hello ladies 4 months to go today: i have to inform no clue what happen to cecilia but i have danielle writing me now. Jeez Perla, Cecilia, Daniella but on a more imporant note.

I have a travel agent with a contract and found out the hotel at this moent is running a promotion for $200 less then what my rates are. I just got those changed and what a difference it makes. I hope your guest are taking advantage of this. a family going to my wedding is going for 4 days with a baby my orginal quote was $1400, the families new quote 940 HUGE DIFFERENCE. hope this helps all brides

Thanks Jewels! My TA  is looking into getting our rates reduced..This will make a huge difference for guest since the airfare is a little pricey! 4 months - wow so exciting!!

[avong1228]

Jewels, 4 months ... so exciting!!! Have you started doing your OOT bags yet? If so, what are you doing if you don't mind me asking?

 

Also, is the family with a baby $1400 per person? We are getting rates for around $1179 pp for 5 nights for double occupancy and $1354 for single. Is the promotion only if you book rooms with them directly or does it matter?

Oh ... I was bored last night so I started our playlist for the DJ. How am I going to fit all the songs I want into 4-5 hours!! The toughest ones are the ceremony music!

[Steve&Julia]

wow thats cheaper then what I found can you email me what you have if its a print screen or something.

I have the bags the OOT bags need a vail. but have 26 rooms booked 6 left super happy

[Steve&Julia]

My OOT bags are cute I think at least LOL

I did the bags from Vista print CHEAP...and we put cancun, name of the hotel and date inside handgel, sunblock, sewing kit (tiny) mints, ikea tealights (2) book of matchs with our names, stress ball, fans and flip flops i was thinking of buying playing cards not sure or maybe hangover pills no clue where to get those

how about you?

[avong1228]

I haven't really started mine since I don't know how many people we will have yet but just trying to get some ideas.

 

We've ordered koozies with our logo on it and got Spanish for Dummies since they were $1 at Target but other than that, I'm thinking hangover kit (Advil, Pepto, Imodium AD ... great threads to find places to get them), key/tip holder, a mexico keychain and maybe some playing cards possibly.
