Hi Hoping for some tips/advice. Booked our wedding through first choice/thompsons for may 31st 2014 at Riu palace Mexico. I can't seem to find any info of weddings at this hotel....loads on Riu place RM but none for this! Stress! Anyone booked or had a wedding here since it has been refurbed? Do they provide the photographer? How many guests have to be attending to have a privet dinner? ( I really want a beach bbq buffet ) and last question ..... Did you hire in people to decorate the wedding or did the hotel provide it all? It is part of my package but wondering if they provide good decoration? Thank you in advance for any help! .... Any photos, tips ..... I'd be very thankful Kat Xx

Hello Everyone,   I booked my wedding with RPM 5/5/15 and I'm not sure if I made the right choice. The hotel is giving me a hard time about my ceremony starting at 3pm. I want them to move it to 4pm

Hi Kat,

 

Congrats on selecting the resort!! Tricky part is over :) We are currently planning a couple of weddings at the newly refurbished Riu Palace Mexico. No need to stress - just reach out to the hotel coordinator and they will be happy to provide you with the anwsers you are looking for :) You have lots of time! Photography is not included in the packages, but you can hire their photographer (who is actually very good!!) - there information can be found at www.adventureweddingsphoto.com. The wedding package includes minimal decor for your ceremony, they will be able to help you with further decor you wish to purchase for your ceremony and/or reception!

 

Happy Planning!!

Thank you so much, that's really helped :-) I think we have booked the royal package.... I just want the decor for the ceremony to look fab like some of the photos I've seen for other places. Photographer is up there on the top of my list so I'll have a look at the link you have sent! Thank you! One last question haha .... I have requested 3pm for my ceremony, but now I'm worrying it will still be too hot and thinking I should have asked for later.... What times do everyone normally go for? Thanks Kat

Hi Kat,

 

Welcome to the forum!!  If you need some advice regarding times and weather, check out our CLIMATE FAQs.  Once you're chosen your photographer, they will also be able to help you fine tune your schedule acording to the pictures you wish to capture and the best light for your shots!

 

Happy Planning!

Hey Kat,

 

I imagine each hotel has it's own policy regarding fire works so your wedding planner would be the only person to be able to answer that!  Below is another idea for some fun at your wedding. 

 

Happy Planning!

Hi Kat2014,

 

Congratulations on getting your wedding plans off to a start. My Fiancee and I are getting Married next year at the Riu Caribe, i know its not the same hotel but maybe we can help each other with any questions that we may have?!

 

With regards to your wedding plans, we have booked the same package for our wedding, due to the numbers we have going, the photographer isnt included in the package deal but hiring one will take a bit of research, we are in the middle of doing this just now and its quite hard to know what your looking for as all the photographers we have looked at, via the vendors on this site, all have really good looking portfolios!!

 

Also as part of the wedding package through Thomson/First choice minimal decoration is included i.e. table cloth and seat covers etc but if you speak to your wedding co-ordinator they will be able to help you with your requests and anything else that you want to do with your special day.

 

Have you spoke to your wedding co-ordinator yet? Have you looked into the documentation requirements for your wedding?

 

Anyway i hope you're very excited and start to get things moving along.

 

Mark & Elaine.

Hi mark & Elaine That sounds like a good idea I received my wedding co-ordinator details this week, I decided to change the time to 4pm rather than 3pm so the evening will flow smoothly .... I just sent her a email introducing myself and she changed the time for me - took 2 days to get back to me but I think it's down to them being busy. She told me about decoration coming at a separate price from the package and that she will speak to me closer to the time about it. I've had a look at the documentation, from the pack I was given from first choice - very confusing. I'm going to have a good read over it in the next few days. I asked about a privet dinner - I really want my reception on the beach ( fingers crossed for good weather ) and the fireworks look amazing! She said 30 + people to attend and there is an extra cost, but I may consider it. Have you spoken to your Wedding co-ordinator? Is it may your going? It will come round very fast!!!! Kat X

They look AMAZING, are they sparklers? Would I have to buy them in the uk and bring them over or could I get them over in Mexico? Thanks Kat

      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!
