RIU RM Palace Brides??

[jessd123]

I guess I should mention my reasoning is because I will not need hair and make up as my best friend does both and she is coming. I am also trying to a little low budget, so the room upgrade is not that important to me. I'm not exactly sure which room we are going with anyways at this point!!!

I dont need hair/make up as my best friend does both and she is coming and the room upgrade is not that important to me at this point. We are leaving the RIU a couple of days after the wedding for out actual honeymoon so we will be spending money there.

Hola Shay,

 

Our most recent RIU couples have opted for either the Theater Bar or the Beach Area in front of the Chilli's restaurant. We really loved the beach location for a private cocktail hour but I have heard the lobby bar is also very popular.

 

Here are a few pictures to help you envision your day:

 

Kit + Waland - Cocktail at Theater Bar

 

 

 

Alice + Ian - Cocktail in the beach

 

 

 

 

Happy Planning!!!

I talked to my FI about how he got the cigar roller and he said that he contacted the resort and he told them that he wanted to add a cigar roller and Nancy replied back and said that the cigar roller is on site. A month before the wedding call the resort and let them know and they will notify the cigar roller. From what he said the price is per cigar depending on the type of tobacco or you can give them a limit and after they will stop rolling and leave. He also said that they will have some pre-rolled cigars when the cocktail hour begin. Hope this helps and sorry so late.

ladies what were you thinking of your first dance, at the cocktail hour or reception? Both FI and I are salsa dancers so we want to start with a slow dance and end up doing a salsa dance towards the end. I was trying to get an idea how this would work out.
