GETTING MARRIED AT THE ROYAL PLAYA DE CARMEN AUGUST 11, 2012

[EP27]

Hello I have been trying to plan my wedding at The Royal for August 11 2012 so many decisions to make I don't even know where to start.

I am having a Spiritual Ceremony  at 5:00 in the Gazebo at The Royal

The Cocktails and Reception at the Main Garden 

I chose the Luxury Wedding Package.

 

Questions:

Do you ladies recommend getting a DJ or using the IPOD?

Do I need placecards?

Do you recommend spending the money on a fancy dance floor (lighting up)?

Do you recommend getting center pieces?

Do you recommend getting the lounge furniture?

Any other extra choices I should consider?

What are the favors for, and does everyone get one? Are these purchased while in Play?

Are there any appetizers you highly recommend I get?

Please if you know of any other things I should be considering let me know

 

So excited to get married but I need to have everything done before the end of February.

I am noticing that my wedding planner from the Royal takes about 1-2 weeks to reply to any of my questions so hopefully you ladies can help me!

Congrats and welcome to the forum!!

Congratulations and welcome to the forums! The Royal Playa del Carmen is one of the more popular resorts to shoot a wedding here and for good reason... its FANTASTIC! So many picturesque spots and its location in Playa del Carmen is 1 block from the famous 5th ave. Here is a link to the last wedding I shot there: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150206092334487.326345.18683524486&type=3

 

I would highly recommend a DJ and the lite dance floor if its in your budget. If you looking for a great reception party and music and that is important to you... this is a must! Plus, the lit dance floor is a photographers dream! Makes for the best images and gives off that natural ambient light that not only allows us grab quick focus and catch more moments... but allows for a natural blur and sense of motion for that party feel!

 

Let me know if you have any questions

Congrats!!!! I'm getting married the same day but in DR. I know it's not the same resort but we plan to do a DJ this way we don't have to worry about controlling the iPod. We will probably do an iPod for the ceremony though. I have been considering just doing the OOT bags as the favors per couple and then probably just doing some small candy like favor at the reception but I haven't decided yet.

Heyyyy, I'm also a date twin! I am debating on having a DJ vs an IPOD.  Y must everything be done by the end of February? We still have 5 months to go.  I know many of my guests haven't even booked and that is holding me up from doing OOT bags and favors. :/
