RIU Yucatan Ceremony Site

katrina · October 11, 2007

Just received photos from my WC of the offered ceremony sites...

I think we're going to go with the garden. More private, and i like the natural lushness.

Anyone have thoughts?

I definately agree with you the garden will be beautiful. I have been to the Yucatan last year for my FI's birthday. I don't think you will have enough privacy. But you're gonna love it we had a great time.

the garden is beautiful, but the water behind you on the beach it really beautiful too!!!

Go with the Garden option if you are looking for privacy!! My FI and I stayed here last April and all the ceremonies on the beach are literally 2 feet away from the hundreds of suntanners... some even topless (you can see the chairs in the pic). I think this is because their beach was pretty much washed away during a hurricane last year and so the area was literally cut in half. If you really want the beach option tho (because the water IS so beautiful in the background), maybe set a later time in the day when there would be less pple laying on the beach? Just some thoughts!!

I agree about the garden being more private than the beach. I watched a video on youtube that showed a ceremony on the beach. The bride walked down the aisle framed by lawn chairs.

I'm considering RIU Yucatan for my wedding in March 2011. However, we are also considering the neighbouring RIU - RIU Palace Mexico so that we can use the gazebo.
