However, Thursday, April 1st, is Maundy Thursday, and Friday, April 2nd, is Good Friday. I emailed Aurora a few minutes ago, but I wanted to see if anyone here might know. Will these days still count towards our 3 days, or do we have to get to Cancun even earlier (and miss even more work/school)? Help! (oh, and hi! I've been reading this thread fairly regularly, but I think it's my first post in it, so it's nice to meet you all.)

Welcome and congratulations!! I am getting married on April 24th!

The week you arrive is holy week which is a big holiday in Mexico. I know that many offices are closed during that time. I just looked at the 2010 guide and it does mention that holidays don't count. Are you planning on having a legal ceremony or a symbolic one? If it's symbolic then you don't need to worry about it.

Congratulations to you too, and thanks for the welcome!

We're having a legal ceremony, which is why we're a bit worried about the dates. I guess for now we'll hold off on buying our flights, so we can figure this all out.

Hello and welcome! I had to switch my date as only weekdays are considered business days.

HELP!!!! I am getting married in a week and am trying to make program fans. I was trying to open the link for the civil ceremony english wording and it is not working. I tried to find it somewhere else on the forum but didn't have any luck. If anyone has this could you please forward it to me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much

Aurora emailed me back yesterday saying that arriving on March 31st or April 1st will both be early enough for a legal ceremony on April 6th, even with the holidays! Problem solved!

You do not need points to open the reviews, the problem is that the forum switched servers and all the links have changed. To find the reviews, do an advanced search. But you'll have to search individually for each one.

Eventually, I'd like to update all the links, but it will take a lot of work.

If anyone wants to help me with this, it would be greatly appreciated. You do an advanced search (I posted instructions on the last page or the one before that) and then I just need to know the bride's name and the new link.

You can't open the attachment because you don't have enough points, because you did not participate enough on the forum. I can send you the info by email if you send me your email address by private message, but I hope my effort will help convince you to post a review when you return! We need everyone to chip in as much as possible to keep this thread helpful to eachother.

Hey girls, I thought I would share this article with you as it may be helpful for all the future DT brides out there with travel arrangements. There is currently an airport under development in Tulum!

Hello ladies,

Can anyone recommend a company to provide us with direct transportation from the Cancun airport to Dreams Tulum? There will be 7 adults and 2 toddlers in our group, and our travel agent quotes $400 for a van, round trip. Is it really that expensive?
