Just Returned From RIU Palace Wedding


Recommended Posts

Oh great..... My WC's name is Kylne Valle...Is this who everyone is referring to as "Kylene"? I'm sure it is... I wonder if I can request to change to someone different? My wedding is May 11, 2013. Thanks to all for all of this helpful info.

I am getting married at the Riu Palace in Cabo in December 2012. Do you have any suggestions on where to go for hair and makeup? I have heard some comments about the spa on site and I am unsure if I want to use them or use a private person. Any suggestions you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Hello CaboWed,

 

I got my hair and makeup done at Suzanne Morel's salon.  She is pretty expensive, but i was HIGHLY satisfied with her team.  I showed them a picture of the the hair I wanted, and they did it perfect.  I also didn't do the trial run, and I'm glad I didnt because they are really good and I think its a waste of money.  I would say to book early with her, as she gets pretty busy.  It was only a 5 minute cab ride from the RIU.  Some of my bridesmaids did get their done at the RIU salon, and it turned out cute.  No one got their makeup done though, so I can't comment on that.

 

Good Luck :)

HI CaboWed,

 

The rehearsal is very short and basic...Since they do this multiple times a week they keep it quick.  I don't even think they require one, but I asked to have mine because I had 18 people in our wedding party.  I scheduled mine for 7:00 the night before then we all went to dinner afterwards.  You will most likely meet with your WC to go over everything the day after you get there.  I would at least request that if its not offered so you know that you took care of things and can relax.

 

I saw a few of you asked for pictures of the Baja Norte as well, please see above :)

    • 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!
    • 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!
