Hi ladies. I recently choose cozumel for my upcoming nov. wedding.
We are choosing between the occidental grand and the wyndham. Holiday sands is actually really nice and has great children s activities if you are inclined. I contacted a wedding planner and found all the information she gave me on my own. So i contacted the hotels directly myself. The prices they give seem to be lower and more room to wiggle. For example i wanted a mayan shaman wedding.At the wydham they ask for 2 grand just for the ceremony and i think a champagne toast and cake. I have the name of the shaman (asked the hotel for the website) and made arrangements myself.For a third of the price. So finding a hotel willing to let me bring my own officiant and have a nice beach was the deal maker. Right now i have 2 hotels to decide from. I am actually coming in on a cruise for the day so my guests will buy day passes and us a room, They get free drinks all day and can order from any of the menus.(they are going to make us a special menu to) so that covered the lunch part.Now we just pay for decor and cake!
I am being really frugal.We paid for 13 cabins on the cruise and just wanted our loved ones with us.I am looking forward to talking with you all.
