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

[Lisa DSO]

So I finally made an appointment to try on dresses next Friday ..blah lol. I know I shouldn't discount anything without trying it on, but I have my heart set on a few Maggie Sottero (destinations) options, but I've already called 4 stores and none of them carry them (even though they are listed on the MS site as carrying the line).. :-(

Hi Ladies, I know we talked about this back a few posts and I can't remember who posted it but someone is using a honeymoon registry that is free, would you mind posting that site name again?

 

Also what are you ladies doing with the ring bearer during the ceremony? Are going to have him sit or stand up with the other grooms men?

oh, trying on wedding dresses is so much fun! just bring someone along with you who you can laugh with and who will make the process more enjoyable (and who you don't mind seeing you nearly naked!).

you will have a fantastic time. my only advice is to try on a LOT of dresses - you might be surprised by what you end up liking! don't discount anything without trying it on. for instance, i did NOT want to try on any "mermaid style" dresses. turns out the one i bought is a fit and flare. not mermaid, but often in the same section of the stores! i can't wait to hear how it goes and what kind of dress you find yourself falling in love with!

hey ladies... anyone know if there are different chair options for the ceremony/reception/tableclothes. my WC isnt emailing me back. suprise supirse. i have 80 people booked already for nov and its screaming me because all the weddings i see online are smaller wedding. Having my wedding in the royal gazebo with everyone sitting on the outside of it and the wedding infront of the gazebo because my WC told me it was the biggest part of the beach and most private. we invited 200+ people and apparently everyone wants a vacation!!

it's not much, but this is the only mention of chairs from my WC (i was asking about the chuppa vs. an arch...)

Normally you get the huppa with the white fabric and chairs with white chair covers. If you prefer the arch with the white metal chairs I can request that.

not sure if it helps a ton, but at least we know there might be some options of sort...

Anyone who has the luxury package - do they know what kind of music they'll play for the ceremony? They have a choice of guitar, flute, harp and something else, but how are we supposed to know what our song choices are for each instrument?

we don't have a RB but do have two flowergirls. I think it would be neat for them to stand with the BM's and the same for your ring bearer! Plus, the flowergirls' mom is a BM so it works out well

one more piece of advice, don't be ashamed to have the ladies at the store to help you pick one out, usually they are very good at noticing body types and what looks best. My dress was the one the manager picked out and would have been my last choice! More importantly, HAVE FUN!!! you have plenty of time so no stress
