Hello ladies! I am also looking at booking the Santa Fe for my Jan, 2016 wedding. I have looked at what seems hundreds of resorts and this one looks like the best bang for your buck!! How much is the 5 hour photographer session? And does anyone know if there is a private spot for the ceremony? We really don't want a lot of strangers watching us get married, or ending up with the man in the speedo in the background of our pics! lol

Wow! your story literally brought a tear to my eye... I think a lot of people wouldn't be able to make it through tough times like yours. It just goes to show how strong your love is! Great thread and thanks for sharing your story and beautiful wedding journey!

unfortunately December is out as my fiancees brother wont be able to attend before January. I was thinking of looking in April/May but would prefer the weather in Jan/Feb!

Thank you!!! I feel way less stressed about this now! I was feeling so pressured to book ASAP as everyone keeps asking me. The grand Sirenis looks really nice... and affordable. How was the food at that resort? Was there good snorkeling? Is there lots of entertainment? Thanks again! I checked out your pictures... gorgeous!!!! did you get your own photographer? or was it included in the wedding package?!

Thanks for the reply!! And congratulations on your engagement too!! I am having a lot of fun so far with the planning, but am sure it will get even better once we have our resort booked! We are pretty set on Jan/Feb, but I may have to look into other times of the year if it will save us! Do you know what April is like? I would think it may be slightly cheaper?! I have talked to about 4 different TA's and they all give me roughly the same prices. I will just keep on looking and hopefully find something that can accommodate us for that price! Moon palace looks gorgeous! We looked at that resort too, but was a bit pricey for us. Thanks for the tip on contacting air Canada.. I'm going to get on that right away! Nice to see a Vancouver bride on here! And thank you calgarybride2015! That is encouraging hearing from you that those rates are possible. Thanks for the info! I

Hello everyone! I am in desperate need of some advice and any tips anyone would be willing to share with me. I have been researching resorts in Mexico since November 2014 (specifically the Caribbean side and even resorts in Cabo). I'm having a hard time finding something affordable as all my quotes have been over 1800$ in Jan/Feb 2016. I just can't ask my guests to pay this as a lot of them have kids that they will be bringing. I want people to be able to afford to come without breaking the bank. I was hoping to find something closer to 1500$ per person. Does anyone know if this is possible or am I being unrealistic? Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thank you Oh, we are from Vancouver Island so will be either flying from Victoria, Vancouver, some from Toronto, and some from Edmonton!
