Questions for Iberostar Brides

[ktlorens]

So I have a lot of questions. I haven't really been able to get much information from the WC's over there, like they haven't responded at all.

1. What are the options for a ceremony site?

2. What are the options for having my reception/dinner? Is it in a restaurant or can I have it outside? Is open bar included in the dinner or do we have to pay extra for that? Is it private or semi private?

3. How much for a DJ? Or do they have an IPOD hookup so I can just do it myself?

4. Do the guests have to stay at the actual hotel the wedding is being held or can they stay at any of the Iberostar's in the resort complex?

 

If anyone out there can help me out that would be so so great!! Thanks!!

Have you checked out the "Iberostar Brides Post Here" thread? There's a lot of info in there. Plus, check out the Iberostar wedding board: Weddings at Iberostar Resorts There's an FAQ thread, the packages are posted, pictures etc...there's a ton of information on that site.

The wedding coordinators take a little while to get back to you (up to a week) but are helpful. Here's what I can tell you:

-the guests have to stay at your resort level or higher- this is why we chose the Del Mar to get married at because we wanted to make sure everyone could go and stay at that level or higher if they wanted

-ceremony sites- beach, chapel, or gazebo for the Del Mar/Beach sections. The gazebo holds about 40 people so that might be a consideration.

-they have an ipod hook up and the DJ is $200 for 4 hours, musicians are $300-400 for mariachis or violin

 

Let me know if you have more questions. Post your email and I can send you some of the attachements they sent to me regarding the wedding. Good luck!

My email is [email protected]....I would love to see pictures and any info you might be able to give me. I heard about being able to do dancing at Aqua bar instead of renting the tropical restaurant...do you know how much that costs? I'm really not picky, I just want to eat some food and then having lots of drinks and lots of dancing. I don't really care where that is. I do still want to have that first dance though. Anyway, if you could email me pictures and info and answers to the questions that you have answers to I would really appreciate it!! Thanks!!!

Which Iberosetar are you getting married at?

We got married at Iberostar Punta Cana in Dom. Republic and everything went off wtihout a hitch.

I'm going to go to the Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar in the Riviera Maya...at least I think...that's where I really want to but I'm also considering the RIU Palace Mexico

^^ Congrats on your pending nuptials.

While I don't have any info on the Iberostars in Mexico, my advice would be to try calling the resort if you haven't to speak with a manager.

Good luck

I'm also getting married at the Iberostar Punta Cana, guests are staying at the Dominicana. We're so excited! From what I've gathered from stalking the boards here, other brides have been very pleased with everything. You can contact their wedding coordinator, Santa, through the Iberostar website.
