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

[Kriswim]

So I found out that they do up to 4 weddings in one day! Seems like everyone would be stepping all over each other? She told me no, but still I worry - did anyone have any issues with this??

[Rhonda]

Does that include both resorts- Royal + Gran Porto? Is there a difference?

[Kriswim]

i think its both - but i could be wrong...i am having my ceremony at the Royal and the reception at the Gran (which is where i am staying)

Hi! During my entire stay there, which was a little more than a week, I only saw 2 weddings ceremonies and 3 receptions, not including mine. There might have been more but honestly, I didn't notice. Even if they say up to 4 weddings a day, that doesn't mean they actually have them. I think mine was the only wedding reception and wedding that day.

Ok, got it! By the way, Antonia, you're wedding looked like a blast and you looked gorgeous!!! I'm visiting the Royal and other resorts in May to make my decision for my wedding. I can't wait to read your review!

[Kriswim]

Thanks Antonia, that helps ease my mind a bit! :-)

Hi everyone-

It's confirmed that we are getting married at the Royal PDC on Nov. 21, 2008! We are so excited. Many thanks to all of you, especially Becky, for answering questions and sending information to help make our decision. Now the questions really start!!

It's time to send STDs and get started with Invitations. My question is what is the best way to have guests make their reservations? I'd love for them to have one place to call to book the resort, airfare, and ground transport...maybe a travel agent? What did you find worked the best? Does the hotel secure a block of rooms for you and if so, how do I go about that? I read that some of you had guests contact the royal directly in order to get a confirmation number. Just wondering if you have any tips that made things run smoothly for your guests.

 

One more thing, did you sign any initial contract or any paperwork to secure your date?

 

Many many thanks!

Katy

Hey Katy. We are getting married in August at RPD. We got a travel agent who takes care of everyone's money. She sets everything up for you and she got us a chartered flight to Mexico from Detroit. I was happy to not have to worry about layovers. When we sent out our Save-The-Dates, we ordered magnets that we had custom made. We found a picture of a playa del carmen beach and had that as the background and our info was over it. We also made a website so that we could keep people informed about any updates that we had.

Hi Sarah-
Thanks for the info. I checked out your website...looks awesome! I think it is so cool that you are doing a charter flight. How fun that will be to have everyone together. We went to a Travel Agent yesterday to get everything worked out for the guests are are trying to do a website too. Wish me luck!
Thanks!
Katy
