MARIES5

I am new here and wanted to say hi! My name is Marie and I am getting married in Cabo on Dec. 30th, 2006. I was originally planning on getting married at the Riu, but the wedding dept. doesn't return emails or communicated about anything. I know many people say you have to wait until closer to the wedding, but mine is only 2 1/2 months away and I want to make atleast some decisions now. I have decided to bag on the Riu and hire a wedding planner. As anyone used Katie Thompson at Weddings in Paradise? I have heard good and bad things at WIP. Any advice would be very helpful in regards to the Riu, wedding coordinators, beach locations and restaurants for the reception. Congrats on all the soon to be brides :-)
