I figured that was the only option. Very cool to know there's more! Did you stay in a standard room or do they have suites? Yes they closed the terrace for the wedding. We just had a jr suite Sarah

Stephanie I thought you were having your reception on the beach? What made you change your mind and have it on the terrace? Sarah

Yeah!!! Congrats! Thats so cute! Wow you lucky girl a coach purse and a beautiful ring all in one day!!!! Sarah

We had our reception on the Mexican terrace, it was beautiful. It over looks the beach. The food served is the mexican restuarant menue. It was delicious. When I first looked at the menue I thought it looked gross, but honeslty it was delicouse! Let me know if you have any other questions!

First of all, where did you hold your reception? It looked as if it were up on a balcony of some sort. Also, what options did they give you for your dinner? How was it? ~Amanda

Food was included at the Mexican terrace. If you have it on the beach the menu is extra and the price varies depending on what menue you choose. If you want to PM I can send you some infor and pics Sarah

Quote: Originally Posted by chrisandstacey072607 Sarah I have a few questions also. I was thinking you got married at RIU Palace Las Americas in Cancun but appears at RIU Palace in Cabo. The WC that emailed was Lizette & Adriana so I assumed it was the same resort. 1.) Do you know if a burned cd of music will be okay versus the ipod? That I dont know. I am sure it would be okay for the ceremony b/c they just hook it up to speakers. You should ask the WC they would know for sure2.) did you have any say so in setup of the ceremony like the chairs and coverings for the chairs and if flowers are used on chairs is it additional charge? I just went with what was provided for the ceremony. I am sure you could rent different chairs and linens at an additional cost, but honeslty this wasnt important to me. I really liked the way they set it up and the white was very clean and simple. For flowers on the chairs I am sure this would be an additional cost. I paided about 200 for the flowers on the slides of the arch. 3.) Is interpreter needed for ceremony and if so is one provided? Yes an interpreter is provided, the WC acts as the interpreter. I am not sure if this is absoutly necessary. You are allowed to provide your own aswell 4.) Was the selection of flowers to choose from adequate b/c of the climate? I am not sure I knew before hand that I wanted roses and orchids. I know they also have gerber daisy and lilys. Hope this helps Sarah
