Wow! Thanks Samantha! I didn't know about the additional cost for food...We received the $20/pp quote as well. I better look into that...we had assumed all of our guests would stay at H3R but now some are mentioning they may not be able to afford to stay there

I'm not sure what your plated prices were but mine are $20/pp for a 3 course meal etc. and if I were to have guests staying off resort it would go up to $70-80/pp not including the day pass. I hope that helps a little

I'm not sure what your quoted rate is but if you or any other your family members are owners at either H3R or any of the Sunset resorts there are even lower rates. Ours is 120/per person per night, which I think is an awesome deal being that the rate to stay there if a person were to book through their website is closer to 360/per night.

Hi ladies, How is everyone's planning going? I just realized we are about 100 days out!!! We are getting our AHR invites ready to go out and trying to think of all the loose ends that still need to be tied up before we leave for MX!!

Is anyone currently using a travel agent to book a wedding at this resort? I'd love to get a referral for someone familiar with the property and packages.

theres a lot of great info in this thread!! we're looking at this resort either as just a base for everyone to stay (with outside venue for reception and ceremony) or possibly for the wedding itself.

 

I was starting to lean towards havign everything at one hotel...but after seeing a wedding at sandos caracol with hoards of sunbathers surrounding the ceremony and one drunk guy shouting ugly things at the couple, im really nervous about having it on a public beach. its much cheaper to do it at a hotel though and h3r has great reviews. so i feel completely stuck and unable to make any decisions!!

We are hoping to see if they have dates available in february/march next year! i was in cancun this weekend and its my perfect temperature - not too hot and not too warm!

 

from what i gather, the reception dinner can be private...its only the ceremony that would have people around? i feel like all the dates are going and i need to book my wedding asap! and the little ticking clock i have in my head is really not helping my stress levels

[Samantha88k]

I understand the ticking clock!! As for the privacy of the ceremony all of the pictures I have seen from past brides and the research I did didn't show many resort guests around the ceremony. If you have your ceremony at the point where the river meets the ocean there isn't really much space for resort guests to be sunbathing in your way! Also, depending on the time of your ceremony resort guests may be done with the beach for the day.

 

We are having our private reception near the pool so we can also be by the ocean. We considered having the reception also on the beach but due to the proximity to bathrooms and a few other nit-picky considerations we thought the pool would be best. My only concern is with the noise coming from the welcome party since we are getting married on a Sunday. The wedding coordinator Allibe has told me many times it will not be a problem.

Hey can anyone send me their timeline at [email protected] ?  I am trying to start mine and did not realize how difficult it would be.  I'm getting married really SOON 3/30/12.  I dont check that email often so just let me know you sent it.  After my wedding I will happily post pics and suggestions, just now is a super crazy time (as you can imagine). We are having mediamorphsis as videographers and Samuel Luna as our photographer (recently featured in a Bridal Mag) so I'm sure you will have excellent video and photo examples to see soon enough  

 

I'm very excited for the wedding!  We have 90 people total and only 12 are staying outside of the resort.
