ROYAL PLAYA DEL CARMEN BRIDES: were kids allowed for the day? ...and other questions

[jenniferkuhr]

We got the Chapel booked!!!  Yay!!!!  Ryan and I will be getting married at the Capilla de Nuestra Senora just outside the resort, and then head back to The Royal beach for our party (I'm hoping to have marichis lead the way...).  I can't tell you what a HUGE relief this is, and it's SO beautiful!

 

Question about makeup:  Any reason folks are choosing outside vendors over Sapzul?  Ryan and I are doing a site visit in a few weeks, so I was going to try and schedule a trial at the spa then, but maybe someone out there has info I don;t?

 

Oh yeah, anyone here getting married over Labor Day weekend?  Thats when we'll be doing a site visit, so we'll be sure to wish you well while we're there!

Congrats Jennifer!!!!

As far as I know, the ladies have used Norma from Mac in Cancun, Fernando from the make-up pros or Adrian from Studio H/Waves. Hope you have a great site visit!!!!!

msgalve I feel your frustration, however keep in mind that all weddings have turned out amazing!  I don't think I've read a negative thing from recent brides.  Also, before deciding on The Royal  we were in contact with many many other resorts and believe it or not their communication was even worse and some didn't even speak English, we would get Spang-lish responses and have to de-code them, it was ridiculous!

 

I'm still 8 months from my date so I havn't been contacting them too much lately, but I hope they get their act together for all of us.  Keep us updated!!

Chicago Bride, thanks for the encouragement. I know that all of the weddings (some king of way) turn out amazing. I'm simply saying that the communication has not been great, There are problems with current brides (even on this board)myself being one of them :-)  . Lastly-with the Spanglish (LOL)-I feel that some response is better than none at all.

 

As far as the band goes, I personally haven't heard anyone use one outside of mariachi. Good luck-hope it all works out for you!

RB, I think Dianne's sister in law or another relative did her hair the day of (since she's a hair stylist). You might also look in her planning thread ;-)
