Sandos Playacar Brides!

Thanks for all the info! I am barely on page 10! I am still deciding which resort to pick because they all sound and look wonderful.

We used the resort photographer for my daughter's wedding and were happy with the photos. I think there are several photographers, though, so I can only speak to our experience with Frederica.

We did the Xplor excursion and our guest loved it!  It's great for kids over 7/8 years old and adults.  It was $89US if you book online (without transportation).  The taxi ride is short and when split with 4-5 people, it's about $15US each way.  We booked Octavio Montes and he was fabulous.

We were also thinking about doing a group excursion with our group of about 50 people.  Which catamaran did you book?  Can you give me more info about it and a contact?  Also, if anyone has any other ideas for excursions with groups of this size and a few small childeren, it would be great to have another idea!

 

We are also looking at photographers right now.  Has anyone used the resort photographer?

 

Looking forward to our December wedding   Seems too far away!

I booked Octovio too.  But one of his assistants is shooting my wedding. I did it for 2 hours.

 

Do we do the MOH speech and Best Man Speech at the dinner or in the hut?  Any ideas?

[leasexy24]

im nt to sure, i think ive seen ppl do speeches in the hut as there is a microphone there i think. x

[Belisaria]

The more I read the more I am loving this place. I just emailed to get the ball rollin!!

[kristamarie]

I emailed Maria, she said that most people do speechs in the dinner area.  However, there s a toast in the hut.  Who typically gives the toast?

 

5 days!  eekkk!

[Belisaria]

Is the hut where everyone goes right after the ceremony the same as the "Royal Palapa" where you can have private events?

[leasexy24]

from photos ive seen, the toast has been the groom but im nt sure if this is what typically happens?? x x
