Can anyone give me some advice on planning our wedding at Cabanas Copal? Our date is in early August and we have our rooms blocked off, but that's about it. We need to decide where we want to hold the ceremony, the reception, what food/drinks to have, and most importantly who will marry us and which ceremony style! It's so hard having never been, so any advice on how to go about this would be very helpful. We'd like to do a sunset ceremony on the beach if possible and will have about 20-30 people. We also understand that it's a clothing-optional beach, but really don't want naked people running around behind us during the ceremony... Help!

Doesn't Copal have a wedding coordinator?...that takes care of everything so you have nothing to worry about?

I've seen one of their weddings on the beach shared by Azulik and La Conchita - close to sunset. It was beautiful. And no nudies in sight.

There is a wedding coordinator. If you call the 800 number on the website, Maria Lidia will organize everything for you.

Thanks for your reply. I am working with Maria, and she's been very sweet with giving me options and information. But I was kind of hoping to hear from someone who's actually been married there so that I can get some first-hand opinions and advice...

Just curious....did you know this was a clothing optional beach before you booked to have a wedding here, but don't really want naked people running around behind you??

I had recommended to Maria Lidia that she suggest the Azulik beach, rather than the Copal beach...it is not clothing optional, so it might work better for your group.
