Velas Vallarta

[starchild]

My parents and some family stayed there for our wedding because their TA suggested it over Dreams. They really liked it. My younger cousins thought the beach sucked but they are ocean swimmers so that matters more to them. I spent an afternoon there poolside and I must say the pools kick ass over Dreams. They have one of those canal like things that meanders through the resort and connects to the big pool, it was awesome.

 

The rooms are huge with full kitchens and nice furnishings. It really was beautiful, I'm still a Dreams fan for the intimate feel and beach, but the Velas is very nice too.

I stayed years ago, and can't remember the activities (plus I'm sure they've changed).

 

by the way, you get married one day before me! My wedding is at the Mayan in the Marina about three hotels over!

the monogram?? We used it on our STD's. I made Boarding Passes. Here are a couple links with samples of STD's and monogram templates.

We are looking at the Grand Velas Vallarta in Nuevo Vallarta but we haven't booked yet. It depends if we can find a deal, its pretty pricey, but FI is determined to stay there. If not we are also considering the Grand Mayan or Vallarta Palace, both in NV.

I don't know why, but it doesn't let me see the monogram link?? We already did our save the dates, but it would be cute to integrate them somehow

That's odd, http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...emplates.html

there's a ton of infor regarding mongrams. also, make sure to post your STD's, we'd love to see them!

I would love to post my STD or even have the picture I put on here show up..... However, I don't know how to use this website very well yet. How would I go about doing this?

We want to have our guests staying at Velas, just finishing some little details...but was there last year and the food, drinks, service, rooms were amazing!!!

Some of my guests who aren't staying at Casa Velas Hotel will also be staying at Velas Vallarta. I was able to get deals for both hotels (owned by the same company). Velas should be perfect for my guests who prefer the bigger family style resorts. Also, the Casa Magna Marriott is near by as well.
