Hi Jemma!

I live in the uk as well.We just got married in Gran bahia principe coba,Mexico,

The best desicion ever made and the best money ever spent.There is great thread on the forum although now is quite long but I remember reading when I starting planning my wedding and it was very useful specially because we all seem to have the same questions or concerns.

We booked with Thomas cook sputhampton and everything was great.

I am trying to figure out how to post pics and I will post a long review during the weekend.

anything I can help with let me know.

Hi sposa & Jemma

We have just booked the GBP Mexico for our wedding March 13. What did you both do about photo's? I think the hotel ones are really expensive and hubby to be is having a fit over the price!!!!!! Do you know if you can get an outside photographer in?

The other things are the documents, TC Trip adviser and this site all say different things (dont want to waste money having documents translated etc if i dont need them all done)

Hi everyone

I'm from the UK too! We have decided on GBP for our wedding. I have found Thomas Cook to be the cheapest so far (we are looking at Oct 13). Still waiting for wedding brochure from the resort (6 days and counting...I'm impatient haha). I will be booking my wedding directly with the hotel, not through the TA.

Just thought I'd mention this thread, which has more or less told me everything I need to know:

RE photographer: I found this -

"Local outside photographers are NOT allowed, however you can fly in your photographer and have them stay at the resort as a guest."

I have heard mixed reviews about the photographer but it seems as though we do not have a choice. The prices are on the above link and I have to agree they seem quite expensive! They have a facebook page where you can view their work, and it all looks good IMO.

Good luck with the planning, keep us updated x
