NEWBEE Paradisus Cancun January 9,2010

Oh wow that's great maybe we can exchange tips. Are you doing one of the packages or doing something custom?

Welcome to the forum!

I've been reading through the Paradisus thread and I've found it to be very helpful... but honestly its making me very nervous about my choice, it seems like they try to take advantage of brides with all of these hidden costs and I think that is really worrisome. How did everything turn out for you? Were you happy with your choice in the end? (As I see you already had your wedding)

Welcome to the forum Lacie! Good luck and happy planning!

My wedding was unbelievable - I don't regret one thing and cannot imagine having made any other choice. Any resort you pick will have a range of pricing - it's really what's comfortable for you. A private, sit down dinner is going to be more virtually every place you look.

 

Many brides on here have had amazing weddings from budgets of 2000 to 20,000 - again - often it's all about the extras you choose.

I have budgeted about $10,000 for the wedding and reception. Is that unrealistic?

Congrats and welcome to the forum. You will love Paradisus! You are getting married one day before our anniversary. Its a great time of year to be married there.

Yeah I'm excited! We could only have the wedding this winter or have to wait until next August, and I just didn't want to wait that long, plus I know that August is hurricane season, so I think it will be nice.

Welcome. We are also thinking of the Paradisus for next year. I would love to hear as you start planning.

Congratulations and Welcome!
