Hello All,

 

I have just found this website as I have began planning my wedding in April 2016. We will be having it at the RIU Yucatan in Playacar and plan on bringing roughly 25 guests, including a few children.

 

I have previously spent time at the Yucatan after staying at the RIU Tequila in 2013 and saw a wedding taking place in the gardens. It looked beautiful and just what I wanted so always kept it in mind!

 

I am just introducing myself and wanting to know if anyone has any experience with weddings at the Yucatan. Any do's or dont's?

Congrats and welcome! You'll find this site very helpful as you go through your planning journey, and the brides are very willing to share tips and ideas. Do you have a travel agent yet? That would definitely be something I would recommend. They will become your new best friend and will help to take some of the stress from you by assisting your guests with arrangements and any travel questions they may have. You don't mention if you're in the US or Canada (it's a mix of both here) but the administrators of this site are destination wedding specialists and would likely be able to assist you with what you want and don't want and the price point for your guests along with your own wedding budget. They can be reached through the link on this site. Have you tried doing a search for the resort you're considering or looking through the resort review section? We do encourage returning brides to submit a review on their resort since it helps new brides to be with their planning, so definitely worth a look. I know there have been a few brides here that have dealt with various Riu resorts.

 

Good luck and happy planning!

Thank you Acw & PerianJay

 

I am actually in the West Midlands in England, so rougly 10 hours by plane to Playa Del Carmen!

We have booked the holiday & wedding through Thomson, a very reputable company here in the UK, and have also recommended our guests to this company.

 

I have looked through the reviews and can't find much on the Playa Del Carmen Riu's, but will keep checking.

 

Does anyone else feel a bit helpless being so far away from the destination? I feel like I want to get the ball rolling but don't know where to start.

    • 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!
