Marinah84's Planning Thread - 3/14/15 - Crown Paradise Club Cancun

My biggest issue was the fact we had small kids there - and they were OUR kids, lol, so it's not like I could blame others!  My sister and brother in law graciously took them back to the states with them, so we could have a short "honeymoon", but a lot of the guests left that day as well.  If they had been older and we could have put them into the kids area for a couple of hours a day, that would have helped a lot!

 

 

One big tip - BRING WALKIE TALKIES!!  They were a LIFESAVER when we were running around getting ready for the wedding, and when people were with our kids (since they still nap).  We brought 4, and honestly I wish we had 2x that amount (we had 32 adults) at least.  We just put them on the same channel and would ping each other when needed.  Very helpful when we weren't in our rooms!

that's what we do too, we have two walkie talkies and they worked great last time when we traveled with my family. We should probably get a few more :)

@@marinah84 your pics are beautiful! Kudos to your brother :)

 

Your little girl's dress came out beautifully, love the colorful tulle. She looks like a fairy!

 

I hope you two had a great time on your mini honeymoon. At least you guys were alone for that ;)

Trash The Dress Photos!

 

I've been CRAZY busy lately, but wanted to stop by and say I got my photos from Sam Luna the photographer over the weekend!

 

I've made a public FB album of our cenote Trash The Dress session - it was AMAZING!  The shots he got were gorgeous - I would highly recommend him/the ttd session to anyone on the fence!  Review eventually, as I catch up.  Also have some items to post on the b/s/t board - I need my house back! 

 

Here's my album (hopefully the link works!):  https://www.facebook.com/marinahartung/media_set?set=a.784031153664.1073741863.54300091

Hmmm - here's a different link, does it work?  I got it straight from the album under "Get Link" for this one!

It was a BLAST!  So much fun!  We both swam in college, so I think it was a little easier.  Towards the end, though, I was definitely getting tired.  I fell asleep in the car on the way back to the resort, haha.  I loved that I didn't have to worry about mascara with the eyelash extensions, too!

    • 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!
