I'm going to try to book the Ballroom Carey as I plan to hire a DJ (sound, lights and all) and I don't want to be restricted with the 10:00 curfew imposed on the outdoor terraces.

Have your RCI guests book their flights as yet? My family is hoping that a seat sale comes up between now and May. Right now its about $950 for a flight from Calgary to Cancun.
Our wedding is at 5 p.m. on Monday the 11th. You are more than welcome to swing by and check out the wedding. We are having the ceremony in the Tucan Gazebo...at least as of right now.

Our reception is in the gardens next to the gazebo. You are even more welcome to come by the reception and have a drink and dance a little!

The only RCI owners are my Future In Laws...and they used all their weeks they had saved up, 11, for all of our guests. They have already booked their tickets though, out of Portland Oregon.

You are Canadian? one of our bridesmaids and one groomsman are both Canadian!

Has anyone gone the route/planning on going the route of renting the groom's tux/suit in Cancun or through the resort?

Also, what is everyone doing for their flowers? Is anyone planning on going through an outside vendor?

I am doing the beach set up thing as well.. How did you get the prices of the set ups? Did someone send you prices pictures of what they can do at all? I didnt know it would be so much more money. I wonder what like a $400 set up would look like, if it would look cheesy at all?

I received some information from MP about the pricing for the ceremony set up and such. I have a few documents I can share with you. If you want to send me a PM with your e-mail address I will send them over to you as well.

Hey Janice (Myen)... What are you doing for a photographer? Are you flying someone down with you or just using the resort photographer?

Hi Jennifer

My name is Laura and we are getting at MP on January 29th, 2009

I would love to see your pics of the beach set-up. This is something we are considering and the photos would help greatly with this decision.

Thank you so much - looking forward to the photos

Laura

Obviously, my FI and I will be busy yet I still want my music playing at the appropriate times.

TIA!!!

Also, I'm thinking about a beach wedding (my FI isn't 100% sold on the gazebo) and was wondering about the cost of a simple setup...anyone check on it?
Hello - my name is Laura and I am a MP Bride - we are getting married January 29th, 2009 - so it looks like we will be there at the same time.

We arrive on the 24th and depart on Feb 7th.

We are hoping to plan a Chapel Gazebo ceremony and then either the chapel garden or terrace reception. We are concerned with the 10pm deadline though and we are not sure where to have our reception as we want to be outside and take advantage of our surroundings.

I am sure we can help each other along the way.

Congrats!
Laura

Jennifer,

We're going to go with the resort photographer. We had purchased the Deluxe wedding package, but I think you have the option to upgrade the photo package with the WC when you get there. We'll likely end up doing that.
