Excellence Playa Mujeres Brides Post Here!

We used Adrian Herrera and he transported us to another beach location for our TTD. Thus, we avoided the second vendor fee. If they come two different days, you have to pay 2 vendor fees.

We did a "street" style TTD in Isla Mujeres with the in house photographer...didn't want to roll around on a beach or cenote...not the best look for us! It was $550 and we had him as long as we wanted him. He paid for cabs and ferries to and from, and rented a golf cart to ride around on...it was a blast!

FANTASTIC! How funny...I totally agree with the do again! We booked already for our anniversary next year...that place is addicting!

Congrats Sarah!!

We did round tables and a "sweetheart table" for the 2 of us. Tables fit 10 but it's crowded. We did 5 tables of 6 and there was enough room without being too empty. 6-8 is probably perfect.

We did not do fireworks but did do sparklers...if you go this route, order A LOT! People grab a few at a time. I had to tell the captain to stop everyone so we had some at the end! It all worked out fine, but I caught it just in time(and my husband was the worst offender!) We ordered 3 per person. We did it during the reception at some point,and then at the last song.

We did an excursion to Tulum and Playa Del Carmen for the day and had the photographer join us....very much worth it. Didn't book through the resort, just on our own hiring Cancun Vans (www.cancunvans.com) It was $400 for the day for up to 16 people. One of the best rates I found. We negotiated a price with the photographer(in house) for $500 for the day, getting all of the pictures on disc, with some edited as part of our wedding package.

-How did brides in the past do their seating chart? Can they do the bride and groom at their own table? then round tables?

-Has anyone done fireworks? if so when during the wedding?

-has anyone done a sunset cruise?

-are the Excursions worth it?

Happy Planning everyone!

THANKS!

Sarah

I'm just starting to plan our destination wedding, but I just wanted to thank everyone for their posts. I've read and learned so much from all of you. We're planning on getting married at Excellence in July '14 and everything you have to say (tips, advice, reviews) is so helpful!

I've been waiting for over a month, and 3 emails sent to N, and no word from her. I am so close to calling her, but first need to get a calling card. So angry with her lack of response.

Put that in your subject line so she can see it and then she should respond. That's what I did after waiting over 2mos for any response ever. I put "this is my 8th email with no response". She replied that night. Hopefully this helps K

Has anyone tried calling their 1866 number for "resort reservations only"? I was wondering if they could connect me to EPM.

I didn't try that but I did call her using Skype from my cell phone and my laptop at home. It only cost me like $.09/minute and the longest I stayed on the phone was like 5 minutes and got all my questions answered.
