  1. Hey Everyone! We got our professional wedding pics back. Here's the album. We did a trash the dress session which we definitely recommend too! At least now you can see what a wedding looks like there. We were looking for pictures alllllover the internet and could only find pics of wedding when it was the other hotel. Hope this gives you some ideas! Make sure you click on view more pics to see them all. http://delsolphotography.com/hyatt-ziva-cancun-cliff-gazebo-wedding-ma/ http://delsolphotography.com/riviera-maya-trash-the-dress-michelle-adam/
  2. Hey Everyone! We just got our slide show pics back from Del Sol. They're seriously amazing and so worth it if you want to splurge on pictures. I know when we were looking at the resort we were searching every where to see pics, so here's our slide show.

  3. We didn't hire one. We just utilized Angela. That was the frustrating part of the whole planning. Communication with her was difficult. By difficult i mean we sent TONS of emails back and forth where it took her days to respond to and then she wouldn't answer some of our questions so we had to keep going back and forth. I think a planner would help, but i don't think it's worth the vendor fee.
  4. It was absolutely amazing! It couldn't have been more perfect. We got there on a tuesday before all of our guests started arriving and met with Angela and went over some details, got a tour of where are ceremony and reception were being held. It was absolutely beautiful and then on our wedding day with the decorations from love memories it was PERFECT! Most of the week it was pretty windy, never rained during the day, but on our wedding day the wind died down and it was perfect. We had our wedding at the gazebo and then reception on the terrace. We had a total of 50 people there. The reception was such a blast, everyone was dancing and having a great time that we didn't want the night to end so we extended our reception another hour. It went by way too fast. We still can't believe its been three weeks since we got married. There were a few mistakes but nothing major that ruined anything. They messed up some details when i was getting my hair and make up done. It's like they were trying to charge us more for whatever they could. I didn't want my hair washed and they ended up washing it and charging me for it. But by the end of the trip we complained about it and got the charges removed. My nails weren't that great by any means. Paid extra for a a certain polish and they started chipping one day later. So they reimbursed us for that. Angela delivered our guests bags for all of our guests and got them mixed up a little bit but that was a minor detail as well. We had our rehearsal/walk through the day before and then had a rehearsal dinner in tres cervezas which was awesome. Turned out really well. We didn't pay extra for it, we just told everyone to be there at 5 and then we had 4 long tables to ourselves. Everyone who came to our wedding said it was seriously the best vacation and wedding they have ever been to. So we were extremely happy. I have a ton of pictures i can post but not sure if you'll be able to see them. I'll try and see what happens. If i can give you a bit of advice, don't rush even if you are a little behind on time. Angela was a little flustered the day of the wedding with so many things going on, she was rushing around. Don't worry about the time and just go at your own speed and enjoy ever single second of it. The hotel is absolutely amazing. We used love memories for decorations and Encore for our dj. We had aldo has the DJ and he played all the music we wanted. Obviously sent him a list before hand and then asked him to play some specific stuff while we were there and he was awesome. Even came out and started dancing with some guests. it was great. We used Debora for our photographer at Del Sol and she was so freaking awesome. They're a little bit more on the pricey side but i would say if you can swing it 100% use them. She was amazing. We hired them for photography, video and then we did a trash the dress session in the cenotes. We can't wait to see our pictures. She showed us a few of the pictures she had and they were STUNNING. Overall it was better than we could have dreamed of! I can't figure out the pictures on here but if you add my fiancé he posted all of our pictures on his page on FB Adam Eichorst

  6. Hi Ladies! Has anyone worked with Angela Hidalgo at hyatt zika yet? Our wedding is coming up quick (october 22nd) and we just barely got her assigned to us. It's been like pulling teeth to get them to respond to us. We're super excited but nervous because we haven't gotten a lot of response and now that Andrea is gone I haven't seen anything written about Angela. Thanks!
  7. Hello everyone! I am so glad i found this thread! My fiancé and I are getting married at hyatt ziva in october and can't wait. We've stayed at hyatt zilara several times and wanted to have our wedding there, but because it was adults only we couldn't choose that location. We were literally seconds away from signing a contract at the hard rock, we actually went to cancun and did site visits to a few places including hard rock. My fiancé checked the mail and in the mail was a brochure for the new hyatt ziva hotel. It was pretty crazy. So we changed the venue and couldn't be happier so far. I think the costs are a little more than i expected, because what comes with the package is pretty basic even though it's like 3499 or something like that. With all the decorations and DJ it's an additional almost 5k. We're having our ceremony at the cliff gazebo and happy hour/reception on the sky terrace. I haven't seen a ton of pics but what i have seen have all been on instagram or what you ladies have posted. I was fortunate to private message with someone on instagram and get some questions answered. We haven't finalized all of our decorations yet, but |Abimael is great to work with. The staff from the hotel I'm not sure what they are, they're not actually wedding coordinators but a contact for the weddings(contract etc) are not very good! they're slow and didn't answer our questions when we emailed them. They would answer 1 or 2 out of 10 questions. ha so that was fun. We finally were able to get her to agree to a phone call and that cleared everything up. We're expecting around 40-50 guests. We hired an outside photographer (Del Sol) they're a little pricey but pictures are one of the most important things for us because that's what we'll bring back with us and have forever. If you want a great photographer and are willing to spend money check them out. http://delsolphotography.com Sorry for the long post but it's nice to find other people who are going through the same struggles we are. But i know it's going to be amazing! I can't wait to see other pictures from your wedding Guz16!
