I am getting Married at the Moon Palace on June,3,2009 at 6p.m. I have been there once before but it was 8+ years ago. My parents go at least once a year and assure me I will LOVE IT! I am so nervous about the planning. I have signed the contract for the wedding date, and booked the trip for the both of us, but only 2 other people have reserved rooms. We plan on having at the least 10 guest total. We Plan on staying on the Grand Side of the Moon Palace. Just the two of us, and the other guests will be staying either on the Sunrise side or the Nizuc (spelling?) side. We are unsure of the distance from the different sides. Does anyone know how far it is from one side to the other? We are staying on the Grand side to keep it more personal. I don't even know what the Grand side looks like, and I can not find any photos of it. Do you know of a way I can see photos of it? I guess I can not start planning any of the wedding until 3 months prior to the wedding? Is that how it is with everyone else? Do you feel rushed or is it ok? How are you getting your dresses to Mexico??!?!? What is the groom wearing? How are you transporting the Tuxes or etc.? Gosh I feel like there are so many questions! I am so excited, and so glad I found this website! Good luck to all you other Brides!!!!! CONGRATS!!!!!! The Grand side is closer to the Nizuc side. I stayed on the Grand side and my guests on Nizuc and it worked out nicely. You can always take the golf cart ride over or the bus ride over to the Sunrise for dinners, etc... The Grand side is beautiful! I will try and post pics soon. Melissa

Hi Tyingthe.knot! Welcome! The umbrellas sound so pretty! How are all you ladies doing? I have been MIA for a while. I still want to try and post pics of our suite on the Grand side. Hope everyone is doing well and your planning is going great! Melissa

If so, how did you go about doing this? Thanks! Hi Sara! Sorry it took me so long to get back to you... I didn't really try to negotiate. I probably should have though! I think you should try... just talk to Maria Torres. [email protected] Good luck, Melissa

Also Did they provide the flower or did you bring your own? Thanks so much Im having such a hard time finding pictures to show them when im down there. I brought my own hair flower (David's Bridal) but I did see in the price sheet that you can purchase one. I am assuming theirs are real though.

Also, for champagne, were there toasting glasses nice? We had our wedding dinner at the Barracuda Steakhouse and they provided us with the cake knife. They didn't charge extra. The toasting glasses were just typical, plain champagne glasses, but nice enough. : ) Everyone got to toast after our ceremony in the gazebo. We set up 3 tables at the wedding dinner. Our table was with our parents, so we all got a champagne toast there too (just our table). If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. Melissa

My sister-in-law is a hair dresser and she did all of our hair, including mine, but I'm sure if you print a pic and bring to their salon, they can copy it. I heard they are excellent! Melissa
