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

Aww...thanks V...all of you!

I've been working hard...and it IS paying off...I still have some work to do...but I'm feeling like I'll be able to pull it off now!

Veil #2 it is.

Yesterday I waivered, and was going to pick the first one, the longer, plainer one (and maybe embellish it a bit on my own)...but...the 2nd veil really does go well with the dress...and...that's that!

I just have to make the decision.

Thank you all again.! Love ya!

Hey Girls

 

Did you get your BC aposilled? I called the number on the form that Zulma sent me and they quoted my $275 for the BC and the stamp and $175 for the aposille. Did anyone find a better way to get it done? Seems quite expensive!

We are probably getting married here beforehand because of all the hassle, but from what I have heard you should be able to get it done for cheaper and in different places. I saw on the Iberostar website (when I was still looking for a resort) that they suggested looking in the yellow pages for a translator and then calling your Secretary of State's office to get the aposilled done... I still have the PDF from that resort if you want to look at it PM me your mail address. It had a website for further instructions...

Hi everyone,

 

I just wanted to say hello to everybody we just booked our date at the Royal PDC on November 7th.

 

Hi dcheung1111 it looks like we will share a wedding hotel and date! Our wedding is going to be on the beach at 4pm.

 

Thanks for all the great info.

Hey Steph

 

I agree it would be much easier and that was originally our plan as well. The problem for us is that our parents live in 3 different states and we live in another and they want to be present for the legal aspect. Its frustrating to me because I think we should save the hassle do it here in LA, hop on a plane and do the ceremony with everyone in Mexico....I just seem to be the only one that feels that way Our compromise is to do it legal in the day and then have our ceremony a few hours later with our friend leading it in order to make changes.

I will look into your suggestions! Thanks and sorry for such the detailed explanation may be more than you cared to know

Hello to all of you Royal Brides!!

Wow - I have just spent the last week reading through this WHOLE thread....tonight alone was probably 4 hours! I feel like I am very updated on everything. Here's a bit about me... Got engaged in November - at Disney World and have been slowly trying to research a good place to have the wedding. FI is the one who really wanted the DW and I am completly happy with that. I've pretty much decided that we will be going to the Royal for our wedding. I love it! I was looking at some other places that are a bit less expensive with the wedding package but once I saw pics from here, I couldn't stop thinking about it. And love that we can do the reception on the beach, as some of the places only letting us do it in a restaurant wasn't very appealing to me.

 

So - we've picked our date - December 2, 09 and I hope it's available because I've already sent out my Save the Dates i really wanted to get an idea of how many people were going to come...as if there were a lot, i was thinking I might not be able to afford the Royal. But like I said...I really really want it!

 

So...still waiting for the RSVP's to come back to my wedding website (free, but feel free to check it out - Welcome To Our Wedding Website | Welcome | TroyandJackie )

 

I'm looking forward to chatting with you all now. i've been waiting to actually write anything until I got to the end. lol. For now I must go to bed!! phew. So glad I made it through!!

 

Jackie

Shay, you look gorgeous!!! I know I don't post often anymore, but I do check in pretty regularly just to see what's new with you gals...your wedding is going to be here before you know it!!!

I am a Royal bride as well! We are tying the knot on June 5th, 5pm on the Beach! I can't wait. Has anyone had any experience with the photographer that the Royal supplies? I tried to look up their website, but it isn't working.

 

Thanks!

Welcome Mel, Jackie and Houston Sunflower!

I don't know how to PM on this site yet! LOL but could you send me the info you got from the Royal? I'm getting married June 5th and I haven't really heard anything from the wedding coordinator yet! I have confirmation on our date and all our reservations are set, but I'm starting to wonder about all the extras! I'm a cake designer, so I'm thinking about bringing some stuff down to snaz it up, but would love to see what I'm working with first.
