Pueblo Bonito Sunset resort wedding in 2012

undecided · March 22, 2012

Hello,

I'm planning on getting married this year. I've been searching EVERYWHERE for almost 3 months now and I am still undecided. The place I most like so far is Pueblo Bonito Sunset resort because of the chapel and the possibility for a private reception. I also like the hotel, however, the WC takes days to reply to my emails, so the process is taking some time.

Here are my questions for you guys:

- Do we have to stay at Pueblo Bonito Sunset to get married there? I would like to stay at Rosa or Los Cabos since they have swimmable beaches.

- If you do the all-inclusive plan at one of the 4 resorts, can you eat and drink at any of the other resorts or do you have to pay extra?

- I have 25 ppl in my wedding party... my friends are between the ages of 26 and 35 and our parent are 56 - 60..if we stay for a week, will we have fun or get bored? If the beach isn't swimmable what else can you do?

Any pictures that anyone can share from their wedding would be AWESOME!!!!!

Also, is it worth going down to check the place out before fully comitting? Should I get a wedding planner here to do the communication with the resort for me? If so, what do you guys think is a resonable price the wedding planner should charge for these service?

I've been so stressed out, I just wish i found this site sooner!!!! I feel so much better now

Thanks.

Hi,

My parents are time share owners at Sunset. It is an AMAZING resort. I went there with my family and boyfriend the first week of January 2012. My boyfriend proposed on the beach at sunset. It was awesome. I immediately went to meet with the wedding coordinator. She was great. I have always known I wanted a beach wedding so I thought Sunset Resort would be great. The wedding coordinator is very SLOW!! I've waited up to a month for a response. Because of that AND prices(Pueblo Bonito weddings are one of the most expensive in Cabo) I have been looking at other resorts. When you do the all inclusive you can use ANY of the Pueblo Bonito resorts. Sunset offers a shuttle to and from Rose so we would just shuttle down when we wanted a day or 2 in the ocean. Sunset has 4 or more pools. Service is excellet. No one can get bored in Cabo. There are lots of fun activities to do. Plus who doens't enjoy relaxing by the beach or pool? The 2 resorts I'm deciding between to have my Feb 2013 wedding are Playa Grande Resrot and Casa Dorada. I also have hired a wedding planner in Cabo from Baja Weddings. She has been great. I get responses and phone calls from my emails within 24hours.

Hi Liz,

Thanks for the info. I'm glad to hear you loved the resort and Cabo. I finally got a reply back from the WC at Sunset. She clarified a lot of the questions I had. Her name is Laura, not sure if this is the same one you spoke with. I really like Sunset b/c it seems more classy than some of the other resorts I've been looking at (example RIU Palace). I was also thinking of staying at Sunset, but letting my guests know that they can stay at any of the other sister resorts under the all-inclusive plan. It just gives the guests more option. The WC said she would send me the prices for the wedding I want by tomorrow... hopefully, it's not too expensive.

I'm getting married at Pacifica and my WC from PB is slow in responding but accommodating. I don't think they permit outside WCs. You'll need to be patient and pro-active in dealing with the WC. Both Sunset and Pacifica are fantastic. Pacifica is shutting down the Fire Pit area and Air Terrace restaurant for cocktail hour and my reception.

I gave my depoist finally and secured a date at PB Sunset. I'm super excited to get married there. The WC has become more more proactive and is being great at answering all my questions.
