ROYAL PLAYA DEL CARMEN BRIDES: were kids allowed for the day? ...and other questions

[mae1564]

Hi Ladies! I haven't posted in a while but I just realized what day it is, and my wedding is exactly ONE MONTH from today!!! Sooooo excited! Just a few minor things to get finished before we leave, it is coming up fast!

My WC at Royal has said I can bring any decorations I want, and the hotel will put them up for me at no charge.

I'd look into the gazebo - it's right by the beach, witha  great view of the beach, but much more private. We are doing our reception on the beach, but it doesnt start until 5:30, and in my experience, the beach winds down quite a bit by then, compared to earlier in the day. Might be a good compromise for you guys?

I was thinking the gazebo would be a great option, however we are expecting 100 guests and my wedding planner informed me that with a party that size the only option for a ceremony location is the beach.  Our ceremony would take place at 4pm and I am hoping that things will be dying down on the beach by then.  Also my wedding planner informed me that they will have personnel from the hotel on the beach to try and insure that people are not walking by during the ceremony, however since its a public beach I doubt this is really achievable.  I think we will just have to wing it and see what happens! For those of you that got married on the beach did you find that it was just completely too chaotic and crowded or did the hotel do a decent job of securing the ceremony site to the best of their ability?

Are you getting married in Cancun or playa? Playa has two gazebo's. One at The Real fits about 70 people and the Royal fits over a 100 at least. I would not Recommend The Real, at least not during summer months when there are kids EVERYWHERE.

Hi Ladies,

 

I'm new to this forum and I am getting married next summer- July 13th, 2013 at the Royal Playa Del Carmen. I am just starting my planning process and have SO many questions. I would love to view some of the wedding photos from previous weddings but when I click on the "images" it states I have "insufficient privileges". What do I need to do in order to view photos?

 

Thanks

Laurie

Has anyone heard anything about getting a free upgrade?  I've heard if you go in and ask if you can have a upgrade, if the upgrade is available they'll give it to you.  Any one get to do this at The Royal PDC?

It seems that past brides have been successful with this according to the reviews on here! I believe it is included in many of the wedding packages as well.  It is worth asking for!

Cannrein I was told the same thing the problem was my wedding was right in the middle of summer and the resort was %100 booked so there were no oceanfront rooms to upgrade us too! The did however offer us the Presidental Suite for 3 night for $430.00

Now, I am not sure if they really didnt have any oceanfront rooms or they just told us that to get us to upgrade to the Pres Suite.. Although my TA did tell us that the resort was at full capacity when we left.  Hope this helps!
