I am looking for firsthand info from anyone who has had their ceremony there so I have an idea of what to expect. My fiance organized a romantic dinner on the beach through the Royal and the service, food and ambience were impeccable - I would expect the same from their wedding service as well. Just looking for specifics... it is a really great place to get married...rebecca honeymooned there reacently...

Since my background is Filipino, our Catholic ceremony custom includes spanish traditions like the coins (arras), veil and cord, candle lighting, and having "sponsors". I've heard that they have this tradition in Mexico as well - I'm assuming that this would be part of the ceremony, or would I have to request this specifically as most tourist couples wouldn't have this in their wedding. My other question to couples who have the Catholic ceremony - because it's not recognized as a "legal" marriage in Mexico, what have you done to make it legal? E.g. have a JP do it also? Do a civil ceremony when you return home? thanks! the easiest way is to do a civil ceremony at home....so much easier and no blood test!

So my question I guess is, do you think video is an absolute must? i loved my video..we got to see parts of the ceremony and reception that we missed but i would cut this out before shortening time with my photographer. slot of photographers have videographers that they work with...at my ahr i had a photographer that brought along a videographer.

here is the thread from mariaelena...she got married in a cute church in san jose del cabo. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t1452
