Because I am fluent in Spanish I had the wonderful opportunity of meeting Enrique the general manager. He is the person I am working with. He is also going to send me ab bunch of pictures of diffrent set ups that they do. When I get them on Friday I will post them all on Shutterfly so you guys can have a look to. As far as the tapas he is going to send me 21 diffrent options and 8 other buffet menus to choose from with the prices. I will keep you guys posted and let you know as soon as I get everything from him. I just have to say again how much I love this hotel

Adriana and Lady Di, Enriques ears must have been ringing because I just got all the info for La Tortuga

Here is the link to check out all the pictures he sent me

Hi Ladies,

 

I wanted to share another great place for rehersal dinners. The name of the restaurant is Wicky's and it is right on the beach.

Click on the weddings link and you can see all the diffrent menus they offer and the contact for wedding info.

 

This place was absolutely beautiful however it is on the pricier side. If you can afford it, it is well worth it.

Our whole family are beef lovers so thats why we went with all beef for the tasting. If you don't have them yet drop me a note at jesmcan@yahoo.com and I can send them over to you. I also was able to get my hands on the buffet options while I was there. So let me know if you want those to. 5pm is a good time, especially in November because it starts to get dark so people start to clear out. You should be fine at that time. To be honest in my opinion the Gran Porto has the nicest beach location and it is also the largest. Unfortunetly we were told if we do the reception at the Gran we have to do the ceremony there to. As far as the three beaches at the Royal, The first beach is the largest and never gets washed away if a hurricane comes because it is somewhat protected by the pier. The down side though it is the main entrance to the beach which is public so that is where people are entering and exiting the beach. The second beach is the one we chose. It still has a chance to get washed away but it is not by the main entrance. It is however at the entrance to the pool of the Royal but Zulma assured us for our reception at 6pm that guests would not use this entrance. Plus we are having such a big wedding that the majority of the beach will be cleared out for our tables, dance floor and the lounge area. The last beach is right in front of the Gazebo and actually happens to be my favorite. However this one has the most chance of being washed away. When we went Zulma told us there was barely any beach just two days ago there and than suddenly it came back. So it is more of a gamble at this spot. However it has the least amount of people and when the beach is there is it a beautiful spot. Sorry I don't know if this was helpful or more confusing lol whichever spot you pick though I can gurantee you the do a beautiful job with the setup

Thank you so much for your advice....but I feel like I am even more torn now on what spot to choose!! hehe

Do you think there is any way they would have a wedding at the gazebo and on the beach in front on the gazebo at the same time?? I am hoping they would not. In that case, I think I may choose the beach in front of the gazebo... and if the beach disappears, I can just have it at the gazebo instead. Or my option #2, which my mom really wants to me to do, is have the entire wedding at the Gran Porto Real, since that is where most of my guests will be staying. If the beach there really is bigger and nicer like you said, then that could be a good option too!?!
Aghh...I'm not getting married until 2011... I think I may have to make a site visit manditory, even if it means I have to go alone! hehe

PS I am going to e-mail you for the menu options!! I really appreciate it!!
