Hello, I got engaged recently and am in the preliminary stages of planning my wedding in Riviera Maya/Cancun area. I am overwhelmed. I would like to find a location ASAP because we have the tentative date set at June 20th 2014 and I want to get my save the dates out so everyone has time to save/plan. We have two kids and another on the way, so we are on a fairly tight budget. We want a beautiful resort at an affordable cost for all of our guests and no Adults only. One more stipulation, I am boycotting any of the Dreams, NOW resorts. I have stayed at Iberostar but cannot find pricing on wedding packages there, I am looking at RIU and Barcelos as well. Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks in Advance!

Hey jlo!

 

Welcome to the forum!  I'm sure you will get tons of helpful information on here!  Have you thought of contacting a destination wedding travel agent in your area?  They could have special deals with airfare straight from your town which could save costs and help organize travel for all your guests!  They will also be very helpful in narrowing down your options quickly.

 

Good luck and happy planning!

Hello Jlo,

 

Welcome to the Forum and Congrats on your Engagment !!!

 

Since you are in the early stages of planning, my suggestion would be the following when choosing a resort, you want something that offers all the qualities you envisioned. If you prefer also check with your local travel agent to compare prices, because sometimes travel agent get better deals than you would get yourself.

You might check out these Resorts:

 

Playacar Palace, its an all inclusive and they have good food. They do not allow outside vendors, be sure to know if for example you are flying in your photographer and he stays with you in the same resort, that there will not be an "outside vendor fee" for him.

 

Hacienda Tres Rios has it all, good deals, beautiful hotel, various restaurants. It's kidfriendly, they allow outside vendors on no extra costs. The beach has white sand but the water is not as magical blue.

 

If you have any more questions you can send me an email to: [email protected]

 

 

Happy Research !

 

Joyce

      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!
