2015 Mexico Bride needs help!

[astaats83]

Hello everyone. Im trying to plan a 2015 wedding in Yucatan, Mexico and have no idea where and how to start on what first and whether to hire a coordinator or is it too soon? I want a large resort with tons of options, adults, a good beach and a private place for a reception. Or maybe an off-site reception. Im looking gor guidance on the next steps or referral s on local coordinators? Thx everyone and congrats to all of you.

hi and welcome to BDW! 

 

I'm a big fan of working with travel agents to help narrow down your search and select a resort. Plus they can help all of your guests book their travel, help you negotiate and navigate working with the resort, and take a lot of stress off your shoulders. Check out Wright Travel Agency - they are experts at destinations weddings, and have a TON of experience with RM. You can find more info about WTA here.

 

I'm biased towards the Karisma resorts, specifically the El Dorado adults-only locations. Gourmet food, top notch service, and uber-romantic settings. My own wedding-moon was an absolute dream!  If I can share any info about them, please don't hesitate to ask.

Welcome and congratulations on you engagement! As Allie noted, a travel agent really can take some of the pressure off and guide you toward great resorts that are in your budget and satisfy your preferences.  The brides here are just fantastic for giving advice and support.

Welcome to the Forum astaats83 and congrats on your upcoming destination wedding!!

 

You will find tons of helpful information here.

 

As a wedding planner in the Riviera Maya i would suggest you to make a list of all the important things the resort needs to have for you and then check on wedding packages the different resorts offer.

Sometimes large resorts don't have always a fully private reception venue but you need to know that the Riviera Maya also offers wide range of beautiful Off resort locations;

if you like i can send you a list with venues that offer privacy together with all the general information there is to know about each one..

 

You can send me an email to: [email protected]

 

 

Feel free to ask us anything and we will be happy to help

 

 

 

Happy Research and Planning!
