Hey girls! If you are a past or future El Dorado Royale bride, please post your name and wedding date and any other details (ceremony site, reception site, etc...) you would like to share. This will help us to have a reference in one post of who is getting married at the famous EDR for those of us who need help in this ever-changing planning process! Thanks girls! Happy planning!

Shannon - getting married at EDR on May 16, 2008 -small wedding of approx 20 guests..

Currently - though it's changed a trillion times so who knows what it'll look like in May....
wedding ceremony at 4PM- was at Casitas Gazebo- but if the limit of guests is 15 -not sure now-- maybe at the Gazebo near the Presidential Suites or Building 55 Gazebo..
white glove cocktail party - after ceremony- at the Gaviotas Palapa location -while we take pictures, wait to be seated for dinner.
dinner/reception (part of "free" sweet package) - at Fuentes
chocolate fondue/cake cutting/ first dance ,etc - at covered pool location after dinner....
The night after our wedding -meeting with guests on their last night before they leave- at Tucanes -for a private dinnner [/b]at 7PM off of EDR's private catering menu... FI and I are staying a few more nights after they leave....

Cool post idea- this will be super helpful! :)
