How is everyone traveling with their wedding dress? I was hoping I'd carry it on and they'd have room in the first class closet....but if not, I might be screwed. My dress is pretty big and bulky.

Hey Girl! I have a question for you guys. I did a site visit in April and was told to have a civil wedding I would have to be in Mexico three business days before the wedding. Now I am being told we need to be there four days before. When I check other resorts website it also says that only three days are required. For girls that have already been married were you there for 3 day. I booked everything and there now telling me I cannot have a civil wedding which is extremely important to us. Any advice will help!

Danielle,

 

I was pretty sure that it was 3 days as well, but in their planning guide it says:

 

Bride, Groom & Witnesses must arrive in Cancún 4 working
days prior to the wedding day (Saturdays, Sundays & Holidays
do not count). Symbolic and non-legal ceremonies allow
flexibility for arrival date. Please speak with the wedding
coordinator to discuss requirements.

Can past brides post the timelines to their day. Include everything from when you woke up till you went to sleep.

 

Also, I'm still looking for a private catamaran for a group activity for our guests. We have between 60-75 guests and all the ones I'm finding for that large of a group only leave from Cancun and we prefer not to travel a half hour for it.

 

Thanks!!

i just looked at the wedding planning guide that I was sent that was 2012-2013 and it said Bride, Groom & Witnesses must arrive to Cancun 3 working days prior to the wedding day (Saturdays,

Sundays & Holidays do not count)

 

depending on when you reserved your date, i think you can argue with them that this used to be 3 days when you reserved and they should honor that for you.

Does anyone have any experience with requesting a gluten-free wedding cake/menu while at the Jade?

Hello!

 

I just wanted to stop in and introduce myself.  My name is Ariel and I waiting on confirmation from Now Jade for a May 2, 2015 wedding.  They used to have a calendar on the website to give visitors an idea of what dates were available however that has since been disabled.

 

How long did you have to wait to receive a response back from the resort in regards to your date?

I'm not sure about the cake - but here's the gluten free (and vegetarian) menu selections I received when planning my wedding last year. Shouldn't be a problem to request any of them or mix and match.
