Hi everyone!

We are getting married at the Grand Sunset Princess in May 2017! We were considering bringing our centrepieces down with us (to save money since centrepieces are so expensive at the resort). We were thinking a simple mason jar with flowers? Not 100% sure yet.

I'm wondering if anyone waited until they were at the resort and go into the markets or Walmart to get centrepiece decor?

I'm just trying to decide if it would be easier to get it there or just check an extra suitcase and pack everything in there!

 

Thanks!!

Hola @@MrsMeis!

Congratulations for your wedding; Grand Sunset Princess is a great resort, you are going to love it and May is a good month for a wedding.
This forum was created to help you and being a local here in Cancun, Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya, i can tell you that you could find some mason jars anywhere and flowers here:

There is a walmart in downtown playa del carmen and other discount shopping. I cant tell you for certain if you will find all that you are looking for. I chanced some items to buy down in Mexico instead of bringing them and was disappointed in the limited selection I found. If you have time and money, try it, otherwise bring it OR I HIGHLY recommend renting decor/centierpieces from Love and Lace Wedding Decor...Katy is a woman down there who owns the company and rents out wedding items and decor at reasonable prices and makes the process easy. Here is a link to her facebook: https://www.facebook.com/loveandlacedecor/?fref=ts

 

and here is a link to her website    http://loveandrum.com/marry-me-katy-mikee-in-tulum/

 

I rented string lights from her, paper lanterns, glass cylinders for my centerpieces, and many other items. Check her out.

@@MrsMeis  So exciting you are getting married 10 days after us (:  I still haven't figured out my centrepieces either - but I think we will bring our own down. I am thinking something simple as well. We are adding the floral arrangements to our alter so I am planning on using those flowers for centre pieces and bringing some form of vase, bowl or mason jar to display them. I will be going Pintrest crazy in a few weeks to start figuring this all out. 

 

What days are you flying in?

    • 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!
