Paradisus Riviera Brides - POST HERE!

Good - so glad you got through to her to reserve your date. I found it takes both persistence and patience!

[RCBlondie]

thanks navarrabrooke & SMB&CRZ for your comments. I am still waiting for some answers about the actual cost, let alone booking the date.

 

Maybe someone here can help me?

1. has anyone does the chill-out-chic package? I read that the dinner seating was "Imperial Sytle", what does this mean? I was under the impression that it was lounge chaise seating...?

 

2. I am wondering if it would be worth it to do a less expensive package but request that it be the lounger seating instead. I have read on here that if you do piece-meal it can get quite expensive and the pricing could change when you actually get there.

 

I know the cost is higher at this resort partly because of the fact they only do one wedding a day but we do not necessarily need all the stuff with the chill-out package and the additional cost per person beyond the first 20 is $105 pp! And we are thinking our guest list will be around 50 people. Any suggestions or thoughts?

RC BLONDIE- I am doing the chill out chic package. It is a very lounge type of setting with couches and bali beds and we are doing a buffet on the beach with it.

I cant wait

Rachelle, I'm also doing the Chill Out Chic package, but we're doing the buffet and loungey furniture on the terrace instead of the beach. And from what I understand, you can make modifications, but you may pay a little more.

yes i have been making motifications but have paid for every little detail that is changed

That is why we went with the WISH package. we had 60 people - when I costed out what we wanted - it was more expensive to do a million changes then just tell Perla what I wanted and get a pp cost.

Do you think you could do the couch seating instead with the Wish Package?

Hi Ladies,

 

Your posts are all so helpful. I started off on this site thinking I was going to get married in Cabo, but have since then started rethinking to the Riviera Maya area. Paradisus looks like a beautiful resort and I can't want to find out more about it. We were thinking of October 2010 but I have read that is rainy season. I guess it will be more like June/July 2010 if possible. We are planning on going on a site visit in late fall to finalize our location. Is this too little planning time? Also, where can I find more Paradisus Wedding Reviews/Pictures? Thanks for any help!

Does anyone happen to have Perla's direct phone number? I have been waiting for 2 weeks for a confirmation that we have our date and although I am working through destinationweddings.com and they say that she will get back with us soon, I am a little paranoid. I have my dj and photographers etc picked out and want to reserve them but obviously cant until I have my date set in stone. So if anyone has her number I would appreciate it!

Yes, they can. We added a little "lounge area" to the terrace for our reception - it was great!
