Excellence Playa Mujeres Brides Post Here!

Hi Ladies,

 

I havent been on in awhile, I have been working on getting our website/STDs out to all our guests. I am getting married on 2/6/11 and recently started working Yamina on all the plans. I was wondering if anyone else (who is planning a wedding now with her) was told we can only use DJ Mannia? I am a little bit nervous because I wanted to go with DJ Dormixx instead, but Yamina said they only work with Mannia Company. Had anyone used him before?

 

Also, did Yamina mention to anyone that they cant confirm venue (aka X Lounge, etc) until a month prior to the wedding?

 

Thanks ladies, happy planning.

I am not sure about the DJ thing, we are just using our iPod. Also, Yamina said they can't confirm a venue until a month prior because that is when they know the availability of the locations.

HTH, Happy Planning!

True, Balam-Ha works great for 50+ guests and I have heard Yamina can help with the vendors. But I also now that Excellence has only ONE prefered caterer and those guys are good! I was able to attend a wedding this last Saturday and OMG! It was amazing. I will see if there are pics of the event...

Yeah I just spoke with Yamina last weekend and she said the said the same thing about the DJ, but I've read good reviews on DJ Mannia. Plus if you book during February you get 30%!! So since you have to go with them I would definitely book asap.

Yamina also told us the same thing about the venue. She said they close one restaurant a night and they vary. This is a bit annoying because I would like to get an idea where the reception will actually be held. However, I Do think the cocktail hour is definitely X Lounge, but don't quote me on this.

Hey Ladies,

Has anyone used an outside vendor for design/coordination? I found a company called Dazzling Details but they are only in Los Cabos and after searching this forum (and many websites in Spanish:)) I cant seem to find anyone similar to them. The resort is great but I would like to be able to add some unique things...linens, chairs, shell name cards etc. Any suggestions? I'm getting so close to my date and afraid I'm going to have to go with the resort options only..

Thanks....nervous bride to be...

Hi Everyone,

 

My name is Cheryl and I am getting married at EPM on Sept 16, 2010. This thread is awesome so far and has given me some good tips.

We went to EPM when it first opened and at that point we were not engaged, but knew this was the place for our wedding. The gazebo is my dream location come true.

6 months away and now I am starting to panic. Bascially I have bought my dress and invitations but that is all we have done so far. Time to get my butt in gear!

Snickers- congrats & welcome!

Okay ladies I am officially 1 month away from my wedding and I am starting to panic. I have so much left to do and so little time. On top of that some of my guests are starting to back out because of the whole mess going on in Cancun.
