I cant wait!!!!! I am leaving My home town in 4 days and flying to Mexico in 6 days. Then the big wedding day is in 9 days!!!! No more double digits!!!! CRAZY!!!!! I just can not wait!!!! I am hoping I have all my ducks in a row but dont think I do..... I havent even made my hair appointment yet!!! I better get on that today!!! I feel like I have everything else worked out. Ceremony at 2pm on the beach near the seaside grill, cocktail hour from 5-6pm on the beach then reception at 630pm at the seaside grill. Hired DJ Bijan for the wedding. I think everything else is in order. Just waiting to hear back from Landy about the bouquet I picked out. Other then that I think just making lists so I make sure not to forget anything!!!

Trista,

I just wanted to tell you that you have NOTHING to worry about! We were married at DT last Wednesday and we had an amazing day!! We are scheduled to fly home tomorrow...sad:( The weather for next week looks to be amazing so you should have a great wedding day and week!

 

Just a few tips regarding the rooms. When we checked in we had a room in the 7000s building. Nice enough room but there was a bit of a smell from the bathroom. Some of the public washrooms had this too. We had family staying in the 2000s rooms which is in the older part of the resort. If you can make sure that you and your guests are not in this area, it would be best. It is far from everything and one guest had issues with her toilet folding, patio door breaking.

 

The food is amazing!!!! The great thing is that you don't need reservations for the restaurants. Now that the hoilday season is over, it is not as busy so you wait shouldn't be too bad. We have been going to the restaurants around 7 and they give you a buzzer if it is a longer wait. You can go get a drink at the Sugar Reef bar while you wait.

 

We changed rooms for a free upgrade to the 6000 building which is overlooking the ocean, amazing! It is worth asking for an upgrade. We did it after our wedding as we checked in late and wanted to see what our room was like.

 

One tip for your wedding, if you have your own decorations make sure they get them back to you the day after the wedding. I still have not received all of my real touch flowers for our wedding cake that I brought, I think the waiter who took some off our cake may have thrown them out thinking they were real. The rest of the decor took two days to get back.

 

All in all we were very happy with our stay and wedding. I will post a full review in a few weeks. Enjoy your time and day!!

AMjohnson,

Thank you so much for the info!!! I will definitely try to make sure that our guests are not in these rooms!!! I am so excited and a little nervous about forgetting something important. So in saying that I am going to start packing now. By for now! I may be back on here before the wedding if I have a chance but if not, speak to all of you ladies when I get back!. Oh and amjohnson, looking forward to reading your review!!!

Hi everyone :) we moved up our wedding date!! it was originally february 2013 and we now decided and changed it to October 20 2012 (woohoo!!) But I am a little freaked out that I lost 4 months worth of planning blink.gif Did any of the previous tulum brides use an outside flower vendor? Ive looked into Julia and another one (cant remember his name) but I havent got any responses from them and its been about 3 weeks. Would anyone have suggestions? Thanks :)

Hi DT brides!

 

I just wanted to check in as we are now back from our wedding! It was incredible and rest assured you have nothing to worry about, you are in good hands!

Although our photographers, Photos in Cancun have not edited our photos yet, they handed us 2 CDs with over 1600 photos to go through and choose 250 for them to edit!

I think that Derek and Lorena did such a great job that I wanted to share of my favorite ones with you.

 

I will definitely post more once they are edited and hopefully on my planning thread I plan to finish soon! The one recommendation I have to future DT brides, that I wish I would have done is scout out the resort and choose a few spots where I really wanted photos. Although this was their first time at this resort, they did pick some nice spots. I just wish we would have had more time before the sun had set. The buildings and grounds are so beautiful I wish we could have had more time to take photos in the stairwells, etc.

 

Overall, we are more then happy with our photos!!

    • 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!
