Cancun Mexico Wedding

Thread Starter  

NOT MINE, but a friend is getting married there next week and I wanted to purchase a gift locally or from the hotel.

Any suggestions for a wonderful gift or more importantly, who to purchase the gift from? I've emailed the Cancun Palace Resort where they're staying, but haven't heard back yet. I'm a little leary, as I tried this for another friend who was married in Jamaica, and they never received their chocolate and wine gift basket, I was out of $100.00, and the hotel never responded to my disappointment.

I was thinking maybe breakfast in bed one morning.

All ideas appreciated :)

I've done this a few times and had success... but it could be hit or miss.

Call the hotel and ask them what shops/boutiques they have around the hotel, then look at the store's website and pick something out. Call the store and order it, but tell them that instead of delivery, you want it wrapped & taken to the hotel. Then let the hotel know a gift for XXX will be coming, and you want it on their bed when they check-in.

Sounds like a hassle, I know - but it hasn't been, and has always gone smoothly.

Alternately, if it's a nice hotel, you could just buy a spa package or smtg. Or bfast in bed that you mentioned is always good too, esp for newlyweds. :)

It's my experience everything is from Tiwan anyways.

Dining is a great idea!!!! It's two fold as it saves them money plus it's a gift. You are too smart!

When we stayed at the Cancun Palace, it was all inclusive. The meals, drinks, snacks were in the deal...
