My best advice is to work with a travel agent- (TA Jill from the forum specializes in Mexico) definately find one that specializes in destination weddings as it is completely different than booking a typical vacation. Each of those properties are great but very different in terms of wedding programs, pool/beach areas, amenities and ease of working with the wedding department.

 

I also do not put a lot of stock into the apple rating system- typically the resorts that they have preferred status with ( or they negotiated higher commission levels) get higher apple ratings than other equally good, if noit better properties! Don't get me wrong- we've sold Apple Vactions quite a bit, it's tha rating system that is not quite ........accurate.

 

Good luck !

If you have any opinions, facts, or any other information you would like to share, please do! I am going crazy. Two quick things. I don't really want to spend 7,000 on a wedding package and I'm keeping my guests in mind. I don't want their stay to exceed 2,500 dollars (per couple) if possible.

Here are my 7 picks: (I wish I had 2 or 3- this is why I need all of you)

Dreams Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa (Apple rating: 6 red)

Cancun Hacienda Tres Rios (6 red)

Cancun Barcelo Maya Palace (5+ gold)

Dreams Puerto Adventuras (6 gold-didn't look as nice as Dreams Tulum-went to Tulum last winter for a wedding)

Adventura Cove Palace (6 red)

Cancun Grand Velas All Suites and Spa Resort (6 red)

Cancun Azul Sensatori (can't remember apple rating)

 

Thanks for your help!

i agree with TA jennifer about working with a TA that specializes in destination weddings...picking a resort to have a destination wedding is way more complicated than trying to find a regular vacation resort.

TA jill is fantastic and also a cancun bride.

my 2 cents:
Dreams has a great wedding department as does Palace resorts. palace also offers free amenities when doing a group block (min. # of rooms are required).

Karisma Resorts (azul) does great weddings but I have had some issues with their level of customer service and some of their wedding policies so I chose to no longer book weddings with them...

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
