Elissea I have a few questions for you since your so on top of your planning (and I'm not haha!) Wat does a semi-private cocktail hour entail? I'm getting married at the Riu Mexico and haven't figured out what I plan to do between when the ceremony ends and our private dinner at 8:45. I've also been wondering about dancing and what not after dinner. I guess that may be a questions I need to ask the resort, like are we allowed to bring an ipod and dance at the restaurant Were you given an option of a 7pm dinner because that is what time the second seating is for your restaurant? I was told that we can either have the restaurant for a private dinner at 6:30 or 8:30. What I would prefer is to be able to have the restaurant the from like 7-11ish though haven't even thought to ask if that is a possibility until right now) Thanks so much, your planning has been so helpful and inspiring!!
