Excellence Riviera Cancun Brides?

KayLynn, I'm bringing the same items with me for my OOTB!  My wedding is a week after yours, so i'll be interested in hearing how your experience was.  Are you printing receipts?

They asked why we were coming to Mexico, we said we were getting married, and they said "congratulations!" and we walked through. It was a breeze!

 

I have a LOT more to say, but please rest assured that everything was beyond lovely and there were absolutely NO problems. Gloria is a literal angel sent from the heavens. I'm planning to post a longggg review as soon as we're back in the US, but for now here's a teeny tiny sneak peek of our wedding on our photographer's website: http://www.schwagerandhanks.com/2013/06/fort-worth-wedding-photographer-rhiannon-shaun-excellence-riviera-cancun/

You look absolutely AMAZING and so happy!!  I can't wait to hear all of the details.  Also, so glad to know Gloria is a wonderful as she seems!!  Congratulations Mr & Mrs!!

Congrats Rhiannon! So excited to hear that things are going well! I just sent Gloria dinner choices and flower choices.

Also, instead of a big cool OOT bag, we decided to do personalized (with the guests initials) insulated tumblers for all the guests. We'll still put them in gift bags and may add a wine/bottle opener or something else small. I'm also making all the ladies barefoot jewelry, as there will only be about 12 women attending.  Hope they like them!!

I will definitely let you know as soon as we get back!!  I am bringing receipts just in case but hopefully we will breeze through like everyone else.  I'm thinking that they see so many weddings coming and going there that it's probably not that big of a deal!  Good luck with everything! Can't wait!  Less than 2 weeks!!

Quick question...a guest of mine is asking if ERC has vendors come in for shopping?  They did this at another resort I stayed at a few years ago.  I think she doesn't want to leave the resort but still wants to buy souviners.  Thanks!

Hi all! I'm trying to decide the venue for my reception - Barcelona Restaurant vs the Foyer! Foyer seems to have nicer lighting, but it's not air-conditioned like Barcelona. Not sure how hot it will get in November... Any advice? Thanks!
