Riu Palace brides in Playa del Carmen

[MagsieMexico]

I thought you'd be mad that I changed my mind AGAIN!!!

 

But seriously, reading the threads it seems like there are lots of private reception options at Riu Palace in Cabo, anyone know if there are the same types of options in the Riu Palace Mexico in the Mayan Riviera??

 

Thanks ladies!!! Could I be getting close to picking a location please please please!

I could never be mad at you! Or anyone else for that matter!!! I just want you to be happy and pick a place you and your FI will love.

Thanks Glenda...

 

One more question for anyone booked at these resorts. Did you worry about picking all the extras when you tried to reserve your date, or can you pick all that stuff later?

 

Thanks.

Hi Margaret,

 

I've booked at the Riu Palace Riviera Maya and I didn't really worry about picking the extras. My impression has been that when you meet with your WC when you get down there you can work all those details out. However, there isn't really any extras that I felt like I had to have or that needed to be booked beforehand, so that may have led to my lack of concern. Hope this has helped!

Same impression here, booked at Riu Palace Riviera Maya. Shelley, I notice your wedding date is in Aug 2007--mine is Nov 2007. Be sure to drop us a line how your wedding went and what your review of the place is.

Will do!

 

How are your plans coming along so far?

You can pick them when your down there. If you want a Marachi band that needs to be done in advance. Also its a good idea to send a picture the bouquet you want to make sure they can do it. Also make sure you email you WC and ask what is included ex. tea lights. That way you know what you should bring yourself

I've just posted a new video from the RIU Palace Riviera Maya resort on my homepage Playa Weddings - Videography in Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya

 

I was really impressed with this wedding. Everything was well done and you can see some of the private reception at the end of the clip. (if you take the time to download the high-res quicktime file the quality is much better). I work with Edith, the wedding coordinator at the RIU. I don't know if she also does weddings at the RIU Mexico. There are more clips from this wedding and another wedding at the RIU Palace Riviera Maya at

Scharke, are you posting that from a website, or are you actually the videographer who owns that blog?

 

Great videos, and great site to get a sense of all the different options! Thank you.

I am the videographer and owner of Playaweddings. I live here in Playa del Carmen. All the work on the Playaweddings site is mine.

 

Thank you, I'm glad it can be a good resource. It's so much easier when you can see and hear a wedding at these different locations before making a decision.
