So is that one person paying the fee for the day? Can't you just go to the bar, do you have to reserve it? Since you have a small crowd, I would just thin you can go there?

I didnt do the Rodizio. You are at the Del Mar, right, so those restaurants are different from the options at the Lindo, Maya, and Grand.

When you stay at the Del Mar, you can go there and the Beach restaurants only.

When at the Lindo, you can have the previous and also some at the Maya. Still not all. Then the Maya gets all theirs and the previous.

The Grand you can go to all.

We didn't make it to the Del Mar or the Beach. Sorry.

The Italian was amazing! I don't think they could have a bad resturant. Not possible.

I sent an email off to my WC to see if there are smaller places to have the reception (they only list the 2 for reception areas or the La Brisa for dinner and reception). So I'll see if they can do something.

Did anyone eat at the Brazilian Restaurant "El Rodizio"? I'm trying to decide if I want my wedding dinner at the Steakhouse, which I heard great things about, or the Brazilian.

 

Thanks,

Noel

Noel, I've eaten at the Brazillian Restaurant and its not my personal cup of tea, but it may be yours. Also, they may do it differently for a wedding. They serve several varieties of meat on skewers- the waiters come around with the meat on long metal skewers and put it on your plate. You get a lot of food, if you like the meats! I do remember you got good service because they are constantly coming around. that was in 2006 and I was there with my family.

If you go to this site you will find the menu options. Login Good luck and thanks for sharing the file. =)

We had our rehearsal dinner at the Japanese restaurant and it was awesome. Everyone loved it and are still talking about how good it was a couple months later.

I am working with 3 different WC at the Lindo. I am worried that having 3 different people answering questions will lead to some confusion, misunderstanding. Has anyone else had the same problem? 2 of them are great and are fast to respond, the 3rd is HORRIBLE. She only answers part of a question and is really hard to understand. Any suggestions?

I only worked with Lily and Tony and they were both great! Not sure who this third person is. Must have changed since last month when we were there.

well, i'm having my first planning FREAK OUT moment! i requested updated prices for 2010 weddings at the tucan, and there was one tiny little change added from the last price list.

 

old list: the bride & groom have to arrive 3 days before the ceremony

newly added: (the ceremony day does not count)

 

crap! we have already booked travel, paid the deposit, and our guests have known our ceremony date for about a YEAR now. (flying out on Wed, ceremony on Fri.) i wrote the wc a quick email asking if there was anything she could do. i really hope they can overlook this tiny little detail, especially since i booked our travel with the rule in mind.

 

ETA: nevermind!! Gabriela emailed me and said "No Worries. We'll meet you the arriving day and It won't be any inconveniences"

 

that's what i get for having a mini panic attack!

whew! Thanks Gaby!!
