Hi ladies,

 

I'll be sure to ask the questions you posted and take lots of pics. We will be focusing on the Cove side because we will have kids there.

 

It's really difficult waiting to hear back to confirm things with the resort. But I guess they don't operate on the timing that I'm used to. It will just be nice to get some immediate answers to questions.

 

2 more days until I board that plane!!!

We had our reception by one of the coves on the north side. We chose not to do the mundaca rooftop becuase it was just way too big. I loved our location. We were right on the ocean and we were away from everything so it felt like it was just us. Below is a picture of the location during the day and at night. Its kind of hard to see at night.

Hi Ohiobride...

 

That does look great!

Just curious, did the resort set up all of the lights for you?

Also, I'm wondering if there is a mosquito problem there?

[ohiobride15]

They set up everything for us. We only had a mosquito problem one night when we went to playa del carmen. There were absolutley no bugs at the reception.

My WC sent me a picture of the inlet...I think we are going to go with that area. Mundaca is way to big...nice...but big! So they set up the lights for you with no extra cost? One of my concerns is not having enough light. Also, you just brought your Ipod dock station right? Obviously there is an outlet for all of that stuff right? What about a restroom, is there one near by? Once I get a drink in me...I have to go...all the time!

Also, did it get really cold at night?

Ok, I finally booked a photographer! I went with Sascha Gluck! Another bride on the forum used him and her pics were awesome. We booked him for six hours on our wedding day and for two the next day for TTD. His prices are reasonable...compared to what I have seen. I really can't wait to the TTD. He said that he knows of some awesome Cenotes and that he is a cave diver...I think that is what he said...so I am taking that he knows which are the best Cenotes to do the TTD. Yay!

There is no extra cost to set up anything. The tiki torches came in sets of ten. We bought 20 to make a complete circle around the party. They have everything to you need to use your ipod. They even have someone to run the equipment. There are several inlets so im not sure which one you have. There are bathrooms everywhere so that shouldnt be an issue. It did get a little cold but really the only people who noticed where my grandma and her sisters. But I did get married in Feb. so it is alittle colder then too.

Hey ladies,

This is such great info. That inlet looks so fab!! I will definitely ask Yazmin about a similar set up.

About photographers....I am talking with Victor Herrera. He seems nice and his work does too....I am interested in comments if anyone used him??!!!!

THANKS!

Thanks,
