Is a someone we can contact to schedule tours? The resort is supposed to be at full capacity the week I will be there and I want to make sure we get a spot before they get booked up.

Will it look funny if we plan on having silver and white fabric for the huppa and silver sashes for the chairs.. I am afraid the green color they have won't look good , plus i feel like green will over power everything.. and they don't seem to have a coral/salmon color fabric.. Or again. I am afraid it won't look good. Silver and white go with just about anything. I think it will fine.

Some girls were discussing mosquitos and getting married on the beach or having their reception on the beach.. I will let you know how it goes.. My wedding is July 3. It is approaching. We are having a beach ceremony and a reception on the tucan terrace i believe! I heard about mosquito problems near the golf course..I do not believe people have been complaining about this issue.. Unless i missed something!??!?! Sorry... I made a mistake it is $1,500 Vaction Dollars. Miami office told me the Palace Passport will not be available after June 1 2010. If you are traveling after that date you will automatically get the new promotion. The promotions can change without out notice and Palace resorts has the right to give you something else of at least equal value. You can use the Vacation Dollars for tours.

Hey ladies! I called the Miami office. I was told the the $15,000 Vacation Dollars is replacing the Palace Passport.

Hey ladies check thos artical on CNN.COM Guest gripe about destination weddings. Guests gripe about destination weddings - CNN.com

Thanks for the great review! I will send you a Facebook friend request.

Great Review! I'm glad you had a wonderful time at Moon Palace!

The link is at the bottom: This thread is to get all Moon Palace Brides - past, present, and future - to share the questions that you sent to your WC. The purpose is two-fold: To make a comprehensive list of questions that you have asked, you need ask, you wish you would have asked...you get the idea. There are so many creative minds on this forum, I'd hate to go away thinking, "I should have asked about that," when I'm at the resort and it's obviously too late. The other reason is so that those of us who are still in the planning stages can just put all of our applicable questions on one email to the WC, instead of having a lot of back-and-forth messenging. Maybe getting the questions list all up front will free up some time for them, and they can respond to us much quicker. (It seems that a lot of us have experienced some level of frustration with some WCs being slothful about responding.) I am asking everyone to copy and paste their questions. I'm not sure if including the answers is a good idea, since things seem to change regularly. Additionally, many past brides have stated that when it came time to finalize the bill, the email dialogue between them and their WC saved some time and expense. I am posting this link on threads for MP 2008-2011 brides. Thanks for contributing! Here is the thread link: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...estions-58154/ Great idea! I will check it out.

There are now 4 other weddings on my date (08-09-2010)! I just went to the website and checked the availability... There are weddings at 2, 3, 4, 5(me), and 6 now. Who are these other 4 people? LOL! I hope they join the forum! They have some new pictures of the collections up (well since the last time I have been to the site). I am getting nervous b/c the deadline to book with my contract is May 1st, and we still only have 7 rooms booked with the travel agent. :-( a lot of people booked elsewhere because she was offering them rooms with a view and they saw the prices for the garden/parking lot rooms on orbitz/expedia and booked there. I wish she had emphasized the cheaper rooms... make sure your TA's emphasize that! I need 3 more people to book so our contract is not void. FI claims that it is not a problem but I hate how people keep saying they are coming but then don't book!!! If you are coming just book what is the problem!!!!! One of my BM just called and said she isn't coming now b/c of money so now I do not believe anyone because she swore up and down she was coming. I know I am being rude but either book or don't book don't sell me these promises and get my hopes up! I hope we can get the deadline extended. Does anyone else have this probleM? I will be so mad if people book after because then we do not get the free reception, upgrade, and room nights! I have the same problem. People are booking at other resorts or using timeshare at MP. I checked out the website also and some thing have changed. For the cocktail you only need 5-9 rooms booked or 15 room nights. The qualifications changed for the other private functions too.

I was in the process o placing an order. Thanks for sharing!
