RIU RM Palace Brides??

I ended up booking my trip last week!! December 22! The prices were really high a few months ago, but they dropped because of the swine flu fiasco! I just requested the wedding date too!

I got the Royal Package, does anyone know what kind've bouquets they offer in the package?

Does anyone know what they're going to be giving as wedding favors? I was thinking about maracas or just getting them all in Mexico, but my only fear is that I won't find anything I like. Very unlikely, but you never know what could happen.

Josie, I love your magnets. They're super fun, and different!

I have 70 pages to catch up on! XD

Welcome June! Congratulations! That's awesome that you were able to get discounted prices due to the flu! Hopefully you won't have a problem getting your requested date either.

I'm not sure yet what we're doing for our favors. We're actually considering photo albums since everyone will be on vacation taking a ton of pictures, in addition to just at our wedding.

Welcome June!

I am doing Maracas too, they are so cool!!! Does anyone know of a good place to get them? I've seen the ones from OTC and they look really small.

I love these Not sure how expensive they are though!

Mishka Designs' Blog: A Maraca By Any Other Name...

if you're on a budget, I think this place called partymart has them.

Genuine Maracas - PartyMart: party supplies

I was emailed Mishka about a week ago, i think she said they started at $3.50 depending on what you want. which isn't that bad.

the photo album is a great idea as well, cause you can pretty much guarantee that everyone is going to be going out to buy a photo album.

Is everyone getting married at the Gazebo, it's gorgeous! and the fact that the palm trees are right behind it, will just add more to pictures!!

ohh my goodness.. that link you posted Josie was absolutely amazing. I think I got more information that i expected! Extremely awesome of ty's girl.

Cheers!

Are any of you doing anything with your wedding party the night before the wedding?

Josie I love your STD's...I just might have to steal your idea and thanks for the bouquet/cake post- I had seen it before, but could never find it again when I went to look for it! I chose the Caprice package because I am hoping for around 50 guests but now want to change my mind to the Royal package (I think the # of guests listed on the package only applies to the cake and wine toast- but correct me if I'm wrong) so hopefully that will go over ok. Also, does anyone know if you can get a script of what the minister is going to say during the ceremony, or can you give him some ideas of what you would like said? and is it in English??
