CriCri

In the Preferred reception there are some computers and one printer that you can use free of charge but it's only b/w .

For my long trip I wasn't sure to be able to carry with me my wedding dress because the size was more then the accepted as hand bag. For this reason I have put it inside an "hands suits", folded up in 4 parts :-( As soon as I was on the plane, I have asked to the hostess to open it and hang somewhere. She allowed me to hang it in their private wardrobe. As regards the menu, I have decided it 1 month before but I have confirmed it only when Cecilia aked me 1 week before going. I have printed it and they set up on the table. The reason I didn't want taste the menu was because I wasn't able to change the printed menu ;-)

I payed the extra with credit card before leaving the resort. I received the total amount in my room the day before.

I had a Legal ceremony but I have asked to include also 2 symbolic ceremony, the sand and the hand ceremony. I have sent to Cecilia what I wanted in the 2 ceremony ans she gave them to the Judge so I'm sure there will not be any problem to performing the ceremony as you prefere. Just to give you an idea, the order of my ceremony has been: - Legal mexican vows - Signing documents for the widness - Sand ceremony - Hand ceremony - Ring ceremony - Signing documents for us - Final declaration Duration 25 minutes

Is there any difference between wedding symbolic ceremony and vow reneval ceremony?

I have had Tony Ruesg for my wedding in may and I confirm he is very good!

Which one resort?

Congratulation!! Where have you booked?

There is one buffet restaurant, it's the World cafè, the same as the breackfast but I have been there only 2 times in 2 weeks for dinner. There are a lot of different restaurants and a couple of fiesta with outside dinners so buffet has been choosen only twice. I recommend private dinner, it's on the beach under a canopy (not the wedding canopy) in front of the see. It was included in my honeymoon packet and if I remember well the standard price is 180$. I liked surf and turf, it's a mixed plate, fish and meat, both of them very good. Only the steamed vegetables are always less cooking then my taste. I don't know exactly what you mean with "rehearsal dinner" but the day before the wedding we went all togheter to the Mexican restaurant "El Patio". What are you planning to do to your "rehearsal dinner"?

Hi ztag7 at the beginnig I wasn't sure about the resort, my dubt was between Iberostar Grand and Secret Maroma Beach. They are near and in front of the best beach in riviera Maya but Secrets Maroma is in front of Playa Maroma that is without rocks, only white sand. I have decided for Secrets and in fact when I have been there, I have walked to the beach up to Iberostar where there were some black rocks. Let me know if I can help you

Will you dress in white? What does complimentary packet include?

Do you have any idea regarding the resort? Have you found a good paket? Will you have guests or only both of you?

Appetizer: Traditional Mexican Tapas (Ok) Salad: Caesar Salad; Traditional Caesar`s Salad served with a delicious homemade Caesar’s dressing (Very good, served in a container done by a thin fused parmesan cheese) Soup: Mushroom Soup (It was good but I wouldn't choose again. I would choose Tortilla soup instead.) Entrée: National Beef Fillet served with legumes; accompanied with potatoes sauté in garlic butter and dressed with a sauce of Cabernet Sauvignon sauce with a touch or tomillo. (Very good meat!) Dessert: Mango Napoleon with crispy puff pastry, served with a sauce of raspberries. (I love it!) Wedding cake Tres Leches (Good and soft) I have heard you can tasting the menu but I have preferred to print the menus at home and not change it.

Nicole, I have mixed silver and gold menu and I haven't any troubles. I know that some of my guests don't like fish so I have choosen a meat menu but I have heard that probably you could have 2 different main courses in case of particolar request...

When the waiters after the dinner were removing the floral arrangments I have asked to have them in my room and in my guests rooms. They say: "Yes for sute, the flowers are yours"! During the night, the congieres have delivered the flowers free of charge. In my room they knocked the door as soon as I arrived, to my parents they have put them in the secrets box in order to not disturb.

Before booking all my rooms trought a web site (for me otel.com was cheapest then expedia) I have asked to Cecilia if i could have the Complimentaty wedding using the web site for my reservation. She answered me that it was possible and after booking I have sent the reservation voucher to her in order to identify it. Just to know, at the end I have switched from the Complimentary wedding to Ultimate because I wanted private cocktail, private dinner , photographer , mariachi, hair style and make up, etc...

Msop04, I have had the same problem and we have solved in this way: - Cecilia fixed my date "as a tentative", this means that she has considered booked the date and the time for the wedding for 1 week - in this week I have had the time to book the flight and the rooms, then I confimed the reservation and I payed the first quote After the payment and the reservation you have all the time to choose all the details.

CKD, will you receive the small video besides the long one? I have asked to have a shorter version (similar as the viddeo we can see in their web side) to show to my friends but he asked me more money :-( I thought it was included

I wanted have TTD but my fiancè didn't want because he thought to destroid the dress. Were you able to dry/clean the dress before leaving?

Yes, it's the gazebo. I have askes to Marvin (the florist) to move all the flowers from the canopy to the gazebo. The centerpiece in the table, 1 poles hanging over the cake table and one in the opposite, the 8 flowers arrangment that were on the sides of the aisle have been placed in the 8 side of the gazebo. After the dinner, I have written a note in a piece of paper with the numbers of the rooms of my guests. All of them has received, during the night , one flower arrangments in the room.

Dear just brides we have spoken of photos but nobody has spoken of video. Have you taken this service? Who has been your operator? Have you been happy?

Yes, Silver and Gold menu food are different from other food served in the resort except for the private dinner on the beach. I have had a private dinner on the beach, only 2 of us, and the main course was one of the main course of the wedding menus (Surf and turf plate)

I have followed your wedding from the side of the beach and I have seen the beautiful turquoise arrangment! Both of you were fantastic and I liked your dress very much! I think I have seen you during trash the dress some days after the wedding but I haven't told you anything because you seemed me very tired and cold and I didn't want disturb you. Could you tell me how is trash the dress? is it diffucult and tiring?

Do you now if they have honeymoon package and honeymoon discount?

Can you suggest me any links very I can see some Cayo Levantado pictures? Thanks
