Hello everyone! This thread has been super useful! I am still stressing out (greatly!) though We are planning to get married in January, 2014. We are planning to do things a bit differently: We want to get married in the local catholic church in playa del carmen. Therefore, we have been told we would not be eligible for any of the "wedding packages" at the RPRM since we are not having the "ceremony" there. Basically, we would then be paying for a private event. That being said, it seems like Chillis is the best option. Does anyone have pictures of the reception set up? Has anyone done the same (wedding in church, reception in RPRM)? Was the cocktail hour worth it? I talked to Paola, the event coordinator, and she mentioned that even if it was a private event, we could only have 4 hours max in the restaurant. Was anyone able to extend this? I feel like this wouldnt be enough! It seems that the 1250 DJ price is pretty heavy for 4 hours, when 2 of those hours will probably be spent on eating, speeches, etc. Can anyone provide any insight? plsssss. Thanks
