ROYAL PLAYA DEL CARMEN BRIDES: were kids allowed for the day? ...and other questions

haha, i GUESS you did - 2460 posts!? look at you go! aside from not being able to open attachements, i don't know that i'm really missing out on much so i'm not too concerned. is there something more that i'm missing out on?

I wanted to let everyone know that a guest of ours, who is having to book at the Gran Porto due to no availability at the royal, called the resort yesterday to get prices. She spoke to someone about prices for day passes (to the royal) and told them the whole situation with our wedding and whatnot. The person on the phone gave them a price of 20$ a day to come to the royal. This is WAY cheaper than the prices I've received from the WC's and that I've seen on here. Maybe the trick is to call the resort directly to get the information and prices that you need. Now, the other problem. The Gran Porto is almost completely booked the week of our wedding, too!

What is everyone doing for their tables?? Just numbers or are you naming them? I ahev been mulling on this for awhile now and I think we are going to name the tables after different oceans and bodies of water that we have vacationed on together- i.e. Sea of Cortez, Florida Keys, etc....

Too cheesy or no?

Hey ladies, I feel like I've been so absent lately!!
Does anybody know, how do the cocktails work for the reception? Do they have a bar set up right there and is there a limited assortment of drinks? I'm making my menu right now and wanted to include a "signature drink". Taking a fun poll. . . anybody else have a signature drink and what is it?

i like the idea of personalizing the tables. it would be fun to have a picture of you guys or a souvenier from each place on the corresponding table!

we are such a small group that i think we'll only have 2-3 tables, so i think the placecards to show entree selections should be sufficient.

Hey ladies, just wanted to pop in for a quick sec and upload the new resort map I found on playa.info. I think LynnieS posted the resort fact sheet awhile back (sorry if it was someone else ), but this one is a lot clearer and all by itself.

Thanks for the map! In the DIY forum, one bride put the map on the front of a postcard and put the agenda for the weekend on the bag. She was putting them in her OOT bags. So cool!

Our group is so small (so far) that I'm not doing any numbers.

I love the sex on the beach ;-)

Ladies, do you all have any guests who are nervous about the violence in Mexico? One of my BM (a very close cousin) told me she wasn't gonna make it because of the violence! I'm so pissed!
