Im a wine drinker when we are home but on the trips we have taken to OCT i prefer mixed drinks and so do most of the other people we travel with. I would say skip the upgrade and let your guest make the decision if they like the wine or if they prefer to order a coctail! They have lots of alcohol to choose from and everyone will find there favorite

Hi girls, 

Quick question, does anyone know how much each round table seats?

Thanks!

Sandy

Hey Sandy!

 

The round ones seat 8 people with a diameter of 1.58 Metres...so 62.2 inches.

 

Does anyone know the dimensions of the rectangular table and how many people can sit across one side?  I've been waiting a while for that answer from Ana.

Thanks Tropic Lover!  I thought 8 but wasn't sure.  Do you think if we really wanted to squeeze 9 at a table that would be pushing it?  Running into some table seating issues and currently I have two tables with 9 people at them. So frustrating.  I don't know about the dimensions for the long table but from looking at past pictures I think they seat 8 on each side so that would be 16 for for the whole table.

Speaking of seating plans.....how are you telling your guests where their seat is?  I do have name cards for their actual spot but I was wondering if I need to do a poster of some sort(35 guests)???

I am ordering maracas from Mishka Designs (I heart her!) and they will have a tag with my guests name and table name. They serve as our table seating cards as well as fun favors/souvenirs for our guests.  They will also have a little note underneath the table card that says "Don't even think of tapping a glass, let's do this with some Mexican class.  Stand up and shake with all of your might, to see the groom kiss his bride tonight!"  I saw this early on in my wedding planning and fell in love with the idea.  Attached is a pic of the design we chose but it will be yellow maracas with pink and white design

They will be laid out in sand filled trays.  Mishka is based out of Puerto Vallarta and is sending the maracas to the resort attn to Ana so I don't have to bring these with me on plane.  

JBDandJ-  I would not do assigned seating chart if I were using the long tables but if you are using the round tables, I recommend it only because I feel like your guests will expect to look for a seating plan and then you don't want them scrambling to find seats and arranging it by themselves. I feel like it creates less confusion by telling them. For a party of 35, you can go either way.  Hope that helps. You must be soooo excited with everything being soooo close!

I heard back from Ana this week... She quoted me on some room prices.

Do you think this is the "all inclusive" price including food or just hotel?  

 

 

 

Deluxe Jr. suite  

$90usd per person per night in double occupancy

$140usd per person per night in single occupancy

$63usd per extra person sharing room with 2 people

45usd per child per night sharing room with 2 people

 

Thanks!
