Definitley worth it! Enough that the boys went twice! All the guys went 2 nights before our wedding for a stag night. They were raving about it so much that all us girls were super jealous so we all went later in the week! I think we paid $65/ea for a ride to and from the club and included all drinks. Most fun ever!

Perfect, thanks ladies!!

I wanted hair half up, but I think I'm going to go with it all up, I've seen some photos with hair in the face and it kinda ruins the pic a little.

Thank you Rachael! I recieved the flower brochure. Unfortunately I didnt see anything I was too crazy about. They definately need to update it! Have any past brides out there had a 1pm wedding? I am really worried about the heat. I picked out my dress before we had a set time and its not exactly a "beach wedding" dress haha. How did you guys find the heat?

We have been to the one in Cancun years ago and it was an absolutely fantastic night so we are definitely going this time too. How long does it take to get to coco bongo from the hotel and did you by your ticket and transport through the resort?

I have got my details about the cake and flavour options. What is the 3 milks (sweet, soft and creamy mexican dessert)? Is it a sponge still? with a milk/cream flavour?

Hey Everyone,

 

I'm leaving on Saturday and the wedding is on Tuesday.  Very exciting...  We have 102 people going, so it's going to be a once in a lifetime trip.  Unfortunately, my neck is just clearing up from ringworm (fungus) and then woke up today and my eye is swollen... never had anything like this in my life and then right before the wedding BAM!  Oh well, I'm banking on makeup (and medication) to do the trick. 

 

I wanted to say thank-you to everyone.. I don't participate too much on here but certainly have read every page...   You all offer such good advice.  Tlseegee thank-you for your wealth of information and pictures.  I really appreciate it.  I do have one last question for you.  What did you say about the music and the old CD players?  What kind of file do I need and which do I need to avoid?

I'll be sure to write a detailed review when I get back. 

 

Thanks,

Sarah

For those of you that did the after-dinner, pool-side reception with the DJ.... do you think that bringing Glow Sticks would be a fun option and would work? As in is it dark enough that they would be seen, or is it possibly a little too bright and we would be better off not spending the money?

 

Thanks once again!

Jill

Oh yes... another question... of all the reviews and everything I haven't read much about the disco on site... does anyone have any opinions on it? (But maybe if they are really bad keep them to yourselves until after March 28th when I leave so I don't read them.... LOL)

 

After spending all the money on the all-inclusive resort and trip I know that most of my guests don't want to spend any more so I planned on having a little 'Sexy Librarian" Theme bachelorette party just at the resort. So after the Welcome Dinner we are having (just in one of the buffets) all the girls are going back to my room and are giving me gifts of either lingerie or books (depending on comfort level) and then I have to guess who gave me what... for every wrong guess I have to take a drink! So after this game and whatever I was just planning on heading to one of the bars and then the Disco for some late night fun where we will mostly meet up with all the boys....

 

Anyway, I guess the point of this post was just to get a little reassurance that this plan will be fun even thought its not the planned trip to Coco Bongo... although it should be with the group of people going... we can party anywhere and have fun
