Michelle - Did you happen to get your wedding dress steamed at all while you were at the Lindo? I'm thinking of getting mine steamed and was just wonderng if they have the service available and if they're good.

 

Thanks!

Congratulations on your wedding! I am getting married at the Del Mar as well. I have been a little nervous since I have not been to the resort but your review made me feel much better! It sounds like you had a great time and all went well. Who did you use for your photographer? I would love to see pictures when you have them loaded.

 

Congrats again!

Congratulations Beach Bride! It sounds like you had a great time! You look so happy (and beautiful) in your pictures!

Hi Gail! Congrats on your upcoming wedding and finally choosing a resort -- I know exactly how you feel!!

 

Iberostar Paraiso Del Mar and Paraiso Beach are on the same side, so I can probably help you with some of your questions. The name of wedding coordinator I have been corresponding with is Gabriela Palacios, she is an absolute pleasure to work with and usually answers my emails within a few hours to about two days, so very fast responses.

 

Good luck and happy planning!!

[Gail]

Thank You. Do you know what area/rooms best to request. I hears resort pretty spread out?

[Gail]

Thank you. I have many questions. WE prob will have less than thirty. Options other than a la cartes for dinner? Need certain number for tropical? Do they put you in private area in a la cartes?

 

How does everyone handle first dance? any of that if nothing private and do ceremony and dine in a la cartes?

 

I am so new to this, you guys will want to kill me. I KNOW NOTHING. I keep reading about save the date cards and sending passport cards. Please fill me in -any pics/examples.

Our DJ didn't say anything! We had already asked my BM Sarah to announce us, and she ended up announcing the dances too on the fly. This part of the night was a little choppy as we weren't really given much direction of what to do or who was doing what.

I only had my dress pressed before we left and it held up fine so I didn't need to get it pressed in Mexico. Sorry!

I saw and loved the passport idea. Do you know of any e card version. The apple charter for june 9th is getting booked quickly so my TA feels I need to book ASAP . WE are putting this together so quick so I thought I could get faster response if I could find a way to do by e mail.

What do you guys think?
