Hi Everyone, Sorry I'm a bit late to reply to this. I also had a lot of back and forth with Ajua weddings before they asked for any money. My fiancé and I finally decided to take out vacation in Playa this summer so that we could meet them in person and take a look at some sites. They were happy to set up a meeting at their restaurant and show us some photos but in order for our planner to do any site visits they required a $300 deposit. In the end we decided to go with a different location other than Playa because after our second visit we felt the main beach areas were too busy for what we had envisioned for our ceremony. That said, they may have some parts of the beach they use for ceremonies that have less foot traffic (and boats anchored for snorkeling trips). We saw one ceremony being set up out side the Blue Parrot on the beach. The location looked very pretty but again there was a lot of foot traffic. I'm not sure who coordinate that though as we didn't ask. Stephanie Morton was the planner at Ajua that I had been emailing with and she was always very responsive and helpful with my questions. I hope that helps!

Thanks very much for your reply. I think we may visit in the next few months so I will definitely keep you posted as we may be able to meet in person! Kind Regards, Tiffany

Hi Everyone! I have been troving through all the threads to see what I can find on Wedding planners in Playa Del Carmen. I've found two wedding planner sites; Ajua weddings (Destination Weddings and Wedding Planning Services in Playa del Carmen) and Weddings in Playa (Weddings in Playa Has Experienced Wedding Planners to Coordinate Destination Weddings, Receptions and Mayan Ceremonies in Playa del Carmen Mexico) but I'm not sure which to go with. It's really hard to choose a planner and send them money having never met them. We would like to get married on the beach, we do have a specific site in mind because we saw someone setting up a wedding while we were there on vacation. Has anyone used either of these planners or know of anyone who married on the beach in Playa (non resort). I saw 1 posting about Ajua which gave them a really great review. Also, can anyone recommend a good place for a girls spa day in Playa or Cancun? Thanks in advance! Tiffany

Hi Everyone, My name is Tiffany and I'm new to the site. It looks like there is a wealth of information here which is great! I just got engaged on Christmas morning and I'm planning a beach wedding in Playa del Carmen, Mexico in June 2009. Can't wait! Tiffany
