June 2010 wedding at the Riu Palace

[melinda234]

We are 23 days away from our wedding at the RIU PALACE! Let me tell you, Danielle get better at communicating as you get closer to the wedding date. I am still up in the air about the table decorations!?! and the arch decoration

?!? I guess it will all work out when I get there! I have all my OOT boxes ready to go. I will post pictures soon! I will let you all know how it goes when I return in July!

Hey!

 

I'm kind of late getting on this forum because I just got back from my wedding and honeymoon at the Riu Palace in Cabo. Let me know if you have any questions or I can help. Everything turned out perfect. If you have a beach wedding, I would suggest you try to get the late ceremony time (it was already booked for my day).

 

Quick details:

June 6, 2009

4:00 pm Beach Ceremony

4:30-6:30 Cocktail Reception with Mexican Canapes at the Baja Norte Bar

6:30-11:00 Private Dinner Reception at the Mexican Terrace

 

I've posted all of the pictures online at http://dixoncabowedding.shutterfly.com/

 

Mango did an amazing job with the photography and videography, for much cheaper than what it would cost in the states.

 

Few other quick notes: May was a very bad month for Cabo and we were told that 2/3 of the weddings were cancelled due to people being scared of the flu. This meaning, there is probably a lot of negotiation room on prices right now. If you get a chance to venture to town, I highly suggest eating at Maria Corona and if you want to venture out to the best view in all of Cabo have a sunset dinner at the Sunset da Mona Lisa (scrimpy portions, but worth the once in a lifetime view)

 

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions. My husband goes to Cabo at least once a year so we felt like this was a great, safe, and beautiful place to begin our lives together.

Thank you for the info and the pictures! Did you have your hair done at the spa or somewhere else?

[kjartie]

I did my hair myself with a ceramic curling iron and a lot of Aquage setting spray.

We just booked our date for July 22, 2010. So when I went to confirm it on the website they want to know the room information and when we booked it, but we haven't booked any rooms yet it way to far out. Has anyone come across this? I'm not sure what to do

Congrats on booking at the Riu Palace- I was just there and it is amazing! The service and staff go out of their way to make you happy. I have been in May, June and July and the weather is always gorgeous, it has never rained while I was there. It can get a lil cool at night in May and early june-high 60's. But it is BEAUTIFUL!

I'm getting married at the Palace on July 17th!!! The wedding couple's room booking number is required to officially confirm your wedding date. They will hold your spot for 90 days though while you make arrangements for your room. We went ahead and booked the room early just to be certain that our wedding date was confirmed. Good luck!
