Riu Palace Peninsula 2013 Brides

Hi everyone! :-)

I am getting married on October 25, 2013 at the Riu Palace Peninsula in Cancun, Mexico! I'm really excited and nervous since there's not a lot of reviews on this venue. If any one can out there has had their wedding at the Riu Palace Peninsula can you please share your experience with me? Also, can anyone reccommend a good photographer in Cancun, Mexico?

Thank you so much!

Super elated bride,

Leia :-)

I am also getting married at the riu peninsula this summer. I have no clue what to do or how to plan this. I need a photographer, schedule of events, a location for the wedding within the resort, etc. I have stayed at the hotel before, but never witnessed a wedding while I was there. Any suggestions, reviews, etc would be greatly appreciated. Haley

Hi there,

I am also an October bride (Oct. 5th to be exact)! I really can't answer to your post since I have yet to know what it will be like but I thought we can exchange information with one another as we move forward with our weddings I am not sure if you have already made contact with the resort but I have contacts and email addresses to the sales person (for booking BLOCKED rooms) as well as the Wedding Dept. Let me know if you need either. I did email with specific questions on the wedding. For example the decor they provide. They really didn't put much info on the email they sent me with wedding packages So if you have any info on that, would you mind sending it to me?! Once I get a response, I can send you the info too.

I am STILL waiting for an official contract so hopefully they will send it quick. Have you already received your contract? If so, how long did it take from the time you initially inquired with them to receive the contract?

Sorry, I am probably overwheming you. ha. Okay, happy planning!

Hey Noel, I have rooms saved for me until jan 22, but I was hoping to get more wedding info before I completely commit. My travel agent said I would have to be booked before I could speak with the hotel wedding coordinator to plan the exact day and time. Does that sound right? If they can't host a wedding on the day or at the time I want it why would I stay there. Anyways, my email is [email protected]. I would LOVE any info you have. My travel agent also received the room date, rates, and booking contract Wednesday (requested 5 days earlier maybe? not long) and said it had to be confirmed by the 22nd. 12 days to get in touch with every guest, get a commitment and a down payment from each one. How tacky. It's not even enough time to mail an invitation which to me is the only appropriate way to announce the wedding plans. How many guest are you planning on having? I would love to see a video of one of their weddings. Have you stayed at the riu peninsula before? Do you think you are getting a good deal? Sorry for the 20 questions. Let me know how things are going. Haley
