Hi everyone!

I just joined this forum and I love it already!

 

My name is Valerie

I am from Edmonton, Alberta (Canada)

My fiance's name is Jason and we got engaged on this valentines day on the beaches of the mayan riveria

We plan on getting married in Mexico feb. 2009 (maybe at the Grand Occidental Xcaret)

 

I love all of the mayan riviera and I have no idea which resort I want. They all seem so beautiful so I have no idea were to even start.

I also have no idea what kind of deals I can get if I have a wedding around 25 people...will i get much of a discount at the resort or for airfare?..

haha i have a million more questions...

 

How did everyone else start? Did you go see a travel agent right away?

Welcome to the forum. Fortunately we have some travel agents that are members as well. Maybe contact one of them?

 

I personally didn't do any room blocks- So many people were wish washy and I didn't want the stress of having to fill space. Everyone just booked on their own. It worked out in the end.

 

Don't stress out yet!! Things will go a lot smoother now that you will have others to help. SO much information is at your finger tips.

I picked my resort on my own after a ton of research. I then found this site and found out how much everyone loved Dreams Cancun and felt soooo much better about my choice. You can contact a TA and see what they have to say. Welcome to the site and congrats!

Welcome fellow Canadian! It is certainly overwhelming at first - it took us 4 months to finally decided on a resort which I think is the hardest part for most people.

 

We picked a resort using a lot of information from this forum, trip advisor, Debbies Carribean reviews etc., looking at pics, websites etc.

 

Once we had decided on a resort we contacted a Travel Agent and we were able to get an all-inclusive group rate through Air Canada Vacations.

 

We have people coming from Toronto and Calgary if that helps - I think the best way to go (and what we found was cheapest) is to get a package!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
