If ever we get married on the same day, do you have any preference for time of the day?

We're getting married in 2010 but just thought it was neat we're also going May 1st to 8th and our date is May 5th Yay just less than 4 months!

We are going down May 2nd to the 16th and we're getting married on May 6th.

Our guests are going down from May 2nd to the 9th.

That's cool! Though we booked yesterday and ended up choosing April 30th to May 7th 2011, so that we could leave Saturday instead of Sunday.

Still very close dates. I wish my wedding was this year, like yours. It must be so exciting to be so close! :-)

I just contacted the wedding coordinator Yahimara to see available dates left for April/May ( I have to book last minute because of my fiance's unpredictable schedule). ILA has become so popular that there are only 2 slots left! Obviously we're choosing a great place since everyone wants to get married here! Unfortunately those dates do not coincide with deals I have found on line. Those who have already booked, did you find that there was a significant discount with the group booking?

[RonNMel]

The price for the whole trip is only slightly less expensive than if I had been booking online. However, I do get a few perks like free seat selection for the entire group, and the best thing, one eprson is free for every 15 people that pay. All that 16th person has to pay are the taxes (just over 200$). We can either decide to not have a free person and pass on the savings to everyone (about a 70$ discount per person), or have us be the free people.

Hi RonNMel,

 

Which tour operator did you book with? We are getting one free every 21, but not freee seat selection. I'm just curious if it is through the same tour operator or different one.

[RonNMel]

We went with Club Voyage as the travel agency, and the tour operator I believe is Air Canada Vacations (not sure of the exact name).

Hello!!

I'm getting married in April 2011 and I have a hard time choosing my resort...I'm stuck between Mexico and Cuba! As for Cuba, this resort is the one that I found the most interresting!!!

 

Does anybody knows if there's a gazebo? Is there special spot on the beach for weddings? Do they have nice decoration for the ceremony?? I would love to see pics!!!!

 

Can wait to hear about a wedding that took place at Iberostar Laguna Azul

Mags, you can see plenty of pics on the Iberostar Laguna Azul Facebook site! There are pics from the first weddings and tons of the resort, inside and out. It's safe to say that the 'gazebo' (more of an archway) is pretty sad looking, hopefully it will be better by April!!
