Thank you for your reply, I know I need to stop stressing but once I get people starting to book I will feel better... people need to have their deposit in by March 2nd 2012 so hopefully I get a good response and then I can relax!

 

Cant wait to hear about your wedding Congrats!! I bet you are SOOOO excited!!!!

Brittany, the most stressful thing you will find is the booking part. People that said they were coming won't book, some people will flatly refuse to consider it because it's Mexico, some will make you feel bad for doing what you wanted. If you can get through that part of it, you're home free.

Congrats!  I too thought some of those things wouldn't bother me.  But, as they are coming up I am starting to be sad  But its our day, most people will make it, and the others can still enjoy the celebrations beforehand!  Its our day to shine

Do you know how fabric you are going to need for the chairs?  Are you doing that yourself or having the hotel do it?  I really like the color on the chairs, but $25/chair seems a little redic!  i would rather spend the $$ on something else

Hi everyone,

 

do any of you ladies know if the resort will hold a symbolic ceremony on a sunday?

[amjohnson]

Hi Taegan,

 

I am pretty sure that they don't have any weddings on Sundays. I think it is the only day that the wedding coordinators get off. But email and double check. I know there weren't any on the two sundays that we were there.

Thanks Amjohnson, I sent Natalia an email and she got back to me pretty quick, she said it wasnt available. Has anyone had their ceremony at 12:00? I had wanted it for 2pm but its not available and Natalia said they only have 12:00. Not my first pick but if anyone has had their ceremony that early, how did it go?

i am also interrested in knowing how 3:30 pm weddings went, if there are any brides out there that were married at that time.

We had ours at 4pm in November (the last slot of the day) and I loved the timing. If you are having an external photographer, you have to pay by the hour - so if you have a ceremony at 12 and then want then to stay for the reception at 6:30, that's a lot of time your photographer is waiting around in between. Also, for pictures, sunset gives amazing light, and the resort times the last slot of the day to be perfect for sunset shots after the ceremony. Lastly, if you don't have a wedding until later in the day, that means you don't hit up the spa for hair and makeup until later - which leaves the entire morning to laze on the beach.

Thank you Sheena!  It is nerve wrecking to figure out which is a better time 3:30 or 5!!  I have decided on 5pm so I can have more time for everything and hopefully its a bit cooler and quieter.
