Hey All

 

I am getting married at EDR November 25th, 2010.

 

I am very stumped on whether to have my wedding dinner at el cocotol.. Anyone have their wedding dinner there or spend the money for the private dinner on the beach or bar area.

 

Any suggestions would be most helpful.

 

Thanks

Hello!

 

I'm getting married at EDR on October 29th =) We are actually doing the free dinner as our welcome dinner the night before the wedding and then splurging a bit for our reception. I've seen in the forums that a lot of people do this (or reverse and have a private cocktail the night before and the free dinner the night after).

 

I'm working with Carolina Miranda and she actually just e-mailed me last week and told me that they were moving our free welcome dinner to El Tropical instead of Coctel - the food options are basically the same, so hopefully will be delicious =)

How did your overall experience with EDR turn out?

Hello brides- I'm seriously considering El Dorado for my wedding July 2014 but am unsure between prices of royale vs. casitas? I'm also looking for privacy, ceremony/reception on the beach, good service... if anyone has any comments/advice/pictures please share! thanks

Hi Futurefontana21! 

 

You're in luck! I've just started the brand-spanking-new Official EDR/EDCR Thread. It's still a work in progress, but I've begun posting resort info and basic wedding info today. EDR and EDCR are parts of the same resort. The difference is in the rooms/suites that are available in the Royale/Villas side vs. the Casitas side. The Casitas side has larger suites with outdoor showers (and as a result, Casitas are more expensive). Both EDR & EDCR share the wedding ceremony & reception sites. The service is top notch on both sides, you can't go wrong. Take a peek at the thread, and feel free to post any specific questions there, or PM me.
