MJKH: Thank you for all the helpful information and pictures. This is a great forum and I keep referring back to it. I'm still not sure which place we will have the reception but the snack bar place sounds nice! The yoga place was suggested as a back up location but I really wanted the intimacy of a more private place..which the yoga studio may work (if it's not too small!). sgreen99: Very cool to find the other person having a wedding the same day as me! I didn't really know if I wanted the palapa, but it looks like it will be a great spot for a reception..enjoy! Let me know if you have any info, anything is helpful considering Ara's lack of urgency in returning emails!

I've booked my wedding at the Grand Sirenis for January 30, 2013...yay!! This forum has been very helpful so far. The date is approaching really fast and I need some help in making some decisions. I found out that the palapa is already booked for day that I am intending on getting married and I need to choose a location for the wedding ceremony and reception. I would like it all to be as private as possible for us and our 30-35 guests. Ara has said we could have the snack bar for reception and a wedding ceremony on "playa nueva" part of the beach. Does anyone know which part of the beach is considered playa nueva and is it a private part of the beach? If the reception is in the snack bar is it private enough and big enough to comfortably hold the guests inside? Ara has also suggested the yoga space as a back up if there is bad weather. Has anyone seen this place? And pictures would be great, I can't seem to find any pictures of it. We are thinking of going to a restaurant for the reception. Which one would be best for 30-35 guests. Do the guests have to choose from the restaurant menu offered or can we have a set menu? Any information would be helpful!
