They really provide enough water, I would save your money and use it towards something else in the OOT bag.

Just my thoughts =)

I agree...... I have been there before and you get water anytime. Personally besides that fact, I just think its too heavy to travel with! Plus once the water is gone..they will just throw away the bottles.

I did not mean the water itself but the travel mugs that everyone is raving about. I am considering getting them and then with no logo and then get a clear label with my logo on it and put it on. I saw a wedding while I was there and everyone was using their mugs.

We did get coffee mugs that say Iberostar on them the last time I was there. It only has the Iberostar logo on 1 side of the mug so you could always add yours to the other side. I don't know how that would look, but it might be easier than going out and buying your own. Just a thought!!

Ladies- I have to get working on our save the dates. I have seen so many creative ones on here. Any recommendations for useful websites? Thanks!

I did the passports and could help you if needed. They turned out cute and everyone raved about them. Let me know!

Hi Gemma,

Can guests who are not staying at the Grand Paraiso attend the wedding?

They will be staying at the Lindo or the Maya.

Can children attend the wedding?

What would the cost be for both children and adults?

Thank you

Claudia Augustson

That's pretty much what I've been getting. I've e-mailed Gemma twice those exact questions but asking if we could eat at the Lindo/Maya as well and I haven't heard back. Any idea if you could just rent La Brisa for 2 hours?

Thanks for your help!

We used magnetstreet/weddings. They were great. We went with the photo booth style (attached). We had GREAT reviews and everyone was saying how 'us' it is. We also had so much fun taking the pictures.

Save The Date Magnets, Wedding Invitations, Wedding Announcements, Postcards for Weddings, Magnetic Favors

There are so many good ideas out there, and this place was good with prices (plus I found a 10% off on-line).

OH Sorry!! Lots of other girls have done literally bottles of water with special labels.
I am definitely doing the travel mugs for the purpose of having a larger drink at the pool bars! I saw people do that at the Rui Palace on our trip we tok in April- all the guests seem to love them! Its a great idea. You can bring them home and use them too so its a nice idea.
