We booked in december so we heard from karla right away.. but we wont hear anything else from her til 2 months prior. whe are you arriving in cabo? we are there 4 - 18. so we just miss ur date! We are just going with the resort photographer .. im not sure if its the same as the riu but i have seen good reviews on them.. have you recieved the wedding checklist or anything yet?

I am arriving on Nov.16, 2012.  I have seen the good review for the resort photographer too. I heard Gilda Badillo is good but more expensive.  I just confirmed my wedding date and got a email from the wedding planner that they work with brides 2 months before the wedding.  It is too early to contact them.

Hi everyone, Im planning to have my wedding at the RIU Palace (August 2013) and I was looking into requesting a wedding date already, but wasn't sure if you have to make a deposit asap?

Also is the Palace a kid friendly resort as well as the RIU Santa Fe?

 

BTW thanks to all the threads this really helps  A LOT! trying to plan a destination wedding can be a lil stressfull but I know it will be all worth it in the end =)

Hi everyone, I'm planning to have my wedding August 2013 at the Riu Palace and I would like to book a date ASAP. Will they need the full amount of the package I choose or just a deposit? Also does the resort allow kids? Or is it just the Riu Santa Fe? Thank you! Marites

I'm planning on ordering saches for the chairs, maybe an overlay for the cake table and fuschia colored napkins. I doubt the Riu has my colors. Orange and Fuschia.

 

I'm taking my own cake topper and hopefully I can find a nice cake base to sit the cake on.

 

Please post pictures of your cake!!!

Thanks.

Mmisa,

 

You do not pay until you get to the resort.

 

The resort allows kids. I just returned last night and had 4 children at my wedding.  There were children at the resort, just not as many as the Santa Fe. They also have Riuland which is a kids camp for children between 4 - 10.

They do not have those colors. I brought down my own chair sashes, table runners, cake topper, and cake decorations.  I gave them to Jatziri (WC) and she took care of the decorations.
