Gran Bahia Principe Akumal/Tulum/Coba - POST HERE!

Thanks guys! We are not doing poolside, because I am worried that it will be too hot! We are used to the heat because we live in Texas, but my dad is a cancer, heart, and stroke patient and I worry about him being outside in the heat for too long.

 

Thanks for clearing things up, I still don't know why she only sent pictures of the Tortuga retaurant...

 

So, if we don't want to have dinner poolside, can we still pay for our guests dinner so it doesn't take away from their one dinner? I would assume so, but is it still the same price as having it poolside?

 

 

No idea how big the dance floor is, sorry.

If you don't want it to take away from one of your guests a la cartes, Jazmin said it was:
small restaurant is 2´450usd, a medium rest is 5´250usd and a big restaurant 6´300usd
Sorry, I'm not sure what is the small, medimum and big restaurants.

Ya, those prices are ridiculous! Not gonna happen....

 

 

Okay question: I am working on my ceremony....can I bring my own ceremony script or do I have to stick with what the JP has? I kow I can had readings and the sand ceremony, but what about the actual ceremony?

I know this may cause problems though since I may get a JP that doesn't speak or read English, right?

Hi girls,

 

Looks like I can officially join your GBP club because we just chose GBP Tulum!!!!!!!! Soooo excited to finally have a 'destination' for our wedding!

 

The sad thing is, I know I will get *nothing* done this weekend because I have 55 pages of postings to read in this thread

Congrats MrsFisher2B!

Hello! I remember reading a while back about someone having trouble renting the disco for their reception as there is a fiesta of some sort around that area on Fridays or Thursdays. I've tried searching this thread and I can't find the post... Does anyone know what I'm talking about? We have our date confirmed - Friday - and I'm just wondering if it will be a problem getting everyone into the disco after the reception?

That being said, I'm also sort of second guessing myself about the Friday wedding. Some of our guests' flight out is on Saturday around noon, so they will have to get up early. We had hoped for Thursday, but they are booked already. They do have a spot Wed, but they can't guarantee me the Tequila restaurant (I love Mexican food so much and I can't imagine going all the way to Mexico for my wedding and then not even eating the food at my reception!). I'm not sure what to do! Any thoughts?

[Martha]

I haven't heard this...I do know you have to be out of the disco by 10 or 10:30. Have you emailed your WC?

[scoutley]

No. I just don't really know what I'm doing and I was going to try to save up my questions and send them all in one email. But now that you mention it, I guess I really should email her and ask. Its just so like pulling teeth trying to get a response, I guess I'm trying to save myself the frustration!!

[Martha]

If it makes you feel any better, we are getting married on a Friday and my WC never mentioned not being able to use the disco.

[scoutley]

Thats what I was wondering! I can't remember what day the person who posted that info was talking about. Don't worry! I think I'm going to have to go back and look at these 54 pages of information and take good notes this time!! I'm probably wrong about the Friday thing! No one has mentioned anything to us either - its just that I thought I remembered reading something about it...
