New Bride Looking for ADVICE!!!

[YrishCathe]

Name: Yrish Cathe pronounced (Irish Kate!)

Wedding Date: 10-10-10!!!

Wedding location: TENTATIVE but looking into Riviera Maya, MEXICO

 

Hi Everyone, I just joined today and I need some help. I want to plan a destination wedding to be set on October 10,2010. I want a nice small intimate wedding but I want the ceremony to be held in a Catholic Church. I want to be able to charter a boat to get to our island. Any ideas?!?! I'm looking into Mexico since I know the country is predominantly CAtholic. Any other islands with beautiful churches or cathedrals?? Please help. Thanks so much.

XOXO

I can't help at all with Mexico advice, but welcome to the forum! I'm sure that over time you'll find all your answers.

Howdy, Yrish Cathe!

 

I guess I don't entirely understand what you're looking for. I know there are probably lots of places in MX that have Catholic churches, but I'm not sure I understand the part about the charter boat. Are you talking, like - a party boat type thing?

 

Have you ever thought about Puerto Rico? I'm not sure of the denomination, but there are lovely churches there. You could check that out.

 

Good luck and happy planning.

Hi Yrish!

 

You should look into Playa del Carmen or Isla Mujeres. The water is beautiful and I know you can take a boat to Isla Mujeres from Cancun or some other close locations. Good luck with the planning!! I'm going to Cabo

I have heard a lot of good things about Playa del Carmen

Slightly confused because Mexico (Riviera Maya) is not an island. Cozumel is if that's what you mean about the boat? If you do a search on this forum for catholic ceremonies you will find different resorts with churches available. The Royal resort in Playa del Carmen has a glass walled church where they can hold Catholic ceremonies. You could look into that, I've heard lots of good things about that particular resort.

Hi and Welcome! There is lots of great info here!

[YrishCathe]

Thanks so much everyone. I wanted to do a Catholic church outside of a resort as the ones in the resorts are mostly chapels. SO I guess I was looking into someone's forum where the bride actually had to get into a boat to get to the ceremony somewhere in the Riviera Maya. ANy ideas about resorts I'm considering Barcelo Maya, Grand Riviera Princess, and or Grand Velas? Want a beach reception... Thanks everyone!
