Welcome to the forum, Cheryl!! Please let us know if you have any questions.

Welcome to the forum!

There's lots of great info on the RIU, I'd suggest doing an advanced search - you should get a lot of hits. Off the top of my head, here are a few good reviews that you might want to check out: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t11686 http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t6371 http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t7842

Welcome to the forum!! I haven't been to PC, but I've heard great things about it. What are the key factors you're looking for in a resort?? (e.g. Adults Only/Kid Friendly, AI, etc)

Hmm, I have a friend who use to do stuff LIKE that (not any wedding dresses that I know of). She lives in Phoenix now, I'll ask her if she knows of anyone though. It might be a long shot, but it's worth a try. ... I'll keep you posted!

omg, what a biotch! March your booty down there and get your money back! Seriously, I have no idea how you can remain so calm (besides the fact that you got your amazing dress on order from a MUCH better bridal salon!). This is beyond ridiculous. On the bright side, when does your NEW dress come in??

Woohoo, welcome to the club Alyssa!!!

Welcome to the forum Rachel! That's definately one of the hardest parts about a DW; if it was a local wedding, you could just scope out the site. With a DW, you have to trust what others say. At least you have your friends experience to fall back on! Did she give you any handy tips about the RIU Palace?

ooooh, I really like it! I'm in love with the bodice - amazing detail!! Hopefully your dress comes when it's suppose to... but I wouldn't worry about it too much. My salon won't even alter my dress until a WEEK before we leave!! (yikes!). I'm sure it'll be fine. It's beautiful, congratulations!

Wow - good deal!!! Good thing you didn't listen to FI! They're cute, I really like them!

omg - seriously?!! That snuck up SOOO fast!!! Congratulations Maggie!! It's only a matter of time before Lizzy (hopefully) chimes in with allllll the details! I can't wait!!

Welcome to the forum Nena!!!

Aww, what a sweetie! Just goes to show that *sometimes* MOH's DO know more than us bridezillas!!

Aww, that's so sweet! Congratulations!

Welcome to the forum!! I agree, choosing the resort was one of the most difficult wedding related choices for me. Please let us know if we can help you in any way!

Welcome to the forum Magen!! There are lots of us Cabo brides here to help. Are you looking at any certain resorts in Cabo??

Happy Birthday!!

Also I'd rather not have to have a Spanish minister with a translator... do we have to have a legal ceremony before or is it possible to get an English speaking minister?? Thanks again, and I can't tell you how much I LOVE all the pictures/slideshows from the other Cabo wedding... they are all so beautiful and make me so excited!! I think it depends what is important to you. For me, cake isn't a big deal, so I'll take whatever Dreams offeres. Photography, on the other hand, means a lot to me. I haven't heard the best things about resort photographers then again, there have been some that have had great resort photographers. If that's something that's important to you, you might want to consider hiring an outside vendor. I think you need to sit down and figure out the things that might be worth a little extra $$ for you and then consider what vendors to research. For Dreams Los Cabos, I've only heard of spanish speaking w/translators - again, I could be wrong. Have you asked Yesica about this?

Congratulations Bre!! I love EDR, your wedding will be fantastic; I can't wait to hear all about it!!

Maybe there was a little note obstruction on the child's part!!

I haven't had it done yet, but I have heard that it's very professional and very clean; absolutely nothing to worry about!

Wow, way to plan Martha!! 3 months to plan - how is everything coming along? How many people are going to your DW?

Welcome to the forum!! How exciting that you're doing a site visit in 10 days; are you going to visit any vendors while you're there?
