I Love that idea! I don't know if I'd have the discipline to wait a year to read them though. LOL

Hi.. I am a May 4th bride, at Grand Coral Beach Club in Playa!

 

I have booked/completed:

Hotel

Reception

WP

Photographer

DJ

weddingwebsite/STD

and just booughtmy dress last weekend!!

Bridesmaids dresses

MOH dress

 

In process of booking:

Videographer

Welcome Party location

Make up and Hair

 

I was wondering if anyone had any information on sending packages to mexico (our wedding planner said we can mail then to her house) but was wondering if anyone had input or heard about shipping stuff. Also what can and cant we bring down with us?

 

Also when is everyone sending outteh formal invites? I was thinking December and put a RSVP date of Feb? I feel like you know if you going to Mexico by Feb for a May wedding..Plus that way we can get a head count we have 250 invitees we think about 85 will go right now everyone says yes but I will believe it when they book! we have about 35- 40 that have reserved hotel rooms!

 

BTW- all i do is search flights now!

I was wondering, did you find it cheaper to have your photographer from mexico or are you bringing in a photographer?

[Sophia2616]

I actually researched both and it was cheaper for us to just go with one in Mexico; plus we loved his work and when we met him during our site visit we just really hit it off.

In the past two years I have stayed at the Royal in Playa del Carmen, the Royal in Cancun, and the Valentin Imperial Maya. The Royal in Playa del Carmen was my favorite because the room was gorgeous and the food was amazing. The Valentin's rooms weren't as nice and the food wasn't as good but the grounds and the pool were gorgeous. Hope this helps :-)

What would be an amazing honeymoon resort that's adults only and all-inclusive in the Riviera maya? We were also thinking of traveling to Belize and than flying home from there. Soo many options! I guess the good news is that we still have 11 months

Thanks everyone for your input!
