Gran Bahia Principe Akumal/Tulum/Coba - POST HERE!

I had placed the deposit with DJ Bob for the wedding, and I just contacted him regarding this information about GBP not allowing outside DJs for the poolside reception. He said he hasn't heard of this, but he has a wedding there this week, and will also check with the WCs at the resort to confirm back for me. So fingers crossed*

I still haven't heard back from Jazmin or Paloma. When I originally asked Paloma re: external dj fee she replied with the cost per hour for the resort photographer and when I asked about it again, she never answered my question. I will try Jazmin again today and hopefully get a response soon. This whole thing with confirming details 3 months before the wedding doesn't fly with me! We have 46 guests who already put down a deposit for November and we're supposed to wait until 3 months before to see if we can even have the type of reception/dj etc we want??

This is the response I got from Jazmin today: some of the other dj's are still allowed.

 

 

DJ Bijan is not anymore allow for some issues in our property, nevertheless If still wish to book an external DJ vendor let me know to send you contact with another option

Hello,

 

Just curious how long it took you to hear back from the WC regarding confirming your wedding date at Gran Bahia Principe Tulum.

Hi everyone!  This is my first post but I have been following this forum for a couple of months!  My fiance Sean and I are getting married on October 23, 2013 at the Tulum Gazebo and are staying at the Coba.  Just starting to communicate with Maria and work out all of the details! 

 

I just had a question regarding the restaurant options for the dinner.  Maria asked me to choose between Mediterráneo (mediterranean food), Pescador (fisherie),  and Porto Fino (Italian).  She included the menus for the first two but not for Porto Fino....  any idea why?  Anyone have any recommendations on which one to choose??  The seafood one is out because my fiance doesn't like seafood    TIA!!

It took about a week to get all my stuff sorted out.  There wasn't much left for dates in November so I didn't really have to much of an issue deciding as there were no choices.  The only thing to be aware of is make sure you give yourself enough time before the wedding to confirm details with your WC.  We are arriving on Nov 23 and getting married on Nov 26 and we had to waive our meeting with the WC and need to finalize everything before via email.  We are not even getting legally married there but it was something I wish I knew prior to getting westjet packages and picking dates.

Probably just a mistake, let me see if I still have it and I'll post it for you!
