I'M BACK!!!

 

We just got home last night from our week at the Riu Palace Riviera Maya with 92 guests and everything was beyond Amazing!!  I am not sure where to start.

 

We met with Nancy on Wednesday and made all the arrangements for our Saturday wedding. 

Saturday we started out with our legal ceremony in our hotel room with just our parents.  Then we had our religious ceremony at 4pm with our own rabbi.  It was in the gazebo and we had white chairs for everyone.  They played the music I had brought down on my ipod.  The tropical flowers were so beautiful.  I had my hair done at the salon and they did a great job.  After the ceremony we all went to the plaza for about three hours of cocktails.  We paid extra for Mexican appitizers and they were so good!  At about 8:30pm we all headed over to chilis for an amazing dinner and dancing.  The DJ was the best ever!  Service was amazing.  We paid extra to have the place to ourselves, and had to kick people out---our party just looked that good.  We also arranged the night before for a welcome dinner in the buffet, they set it all up for us, and it felt very private.

 

Bottom line....everything was amazing and I am sad to be home in the cold.

Thanks all for the compliments... I originally saw the legal dress at Macy's for $125!! ...but then I went to Burlington Coat Factory and the same Calvin Klein dress was $39! It was meant to be :)

hey... not on here much anymore but just catching up. I did have two guests add on the week before. All I did was email Nancy with their names, where they were staying and dates there. It was absolutely no problem. Luckily I had extra mugs :) So don't worry!

We have a couple people still telling us they are coming too. I am basically counting them out at this poont and if they decide to come the week before then I will deal with it then.

 

I am a little worried about my OOT bags too. I sure hope I don't have any issues with customs.

Welcome back JRB!!! I can't wait to hear all about it and see pictures! Dying to see how your hair came out- I think I remember you saying you have curly hair and were worried about it. I think I am doing the same thing as you with regard to ceremony, cocktail hour and then dinner too!  By any chance are you on facebook?

 

Jen - thanks for popping in! We miss you!

    • 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!
