Hmm who is your photographer? Sometimes the outside vendor had to be approved. Which is different the preferred. From what I understand preferred means no day pass needed. Approved means no room needed, but day pass is needed. And everything else? Well is confusing =) Also, try speaking to your coordinator in Miami Vs at the Resort. I think they have higher authority. I know I had a bad experiene with Deco Cancun and was able to get another company approved. But I do have to buy day passes for them.

I explained to her that I had been dealing with Deco Cancun for 2 months and have had a very hard time getting responces to my questions. And that I was very unpleased with their customer service. It might have just been the sales person I had. I am not sure. Either way =) I didnt want to use them anymore. I found Alquimiaevents off this board. they have been very very helpful so far and are sooo much less expensive. They reall worked with my budget.

No I think it just means that they wont hassel you about booking them. lol...Doesnt really do a lot of you other then that. BUT! I know in the past they wouldnt even want to allow outside vendors on the property. So its probably a big step for them. I got them to let me use an outside decor company. I was sooo stoked. Deco Cancun is insane with prices IMO.

Yep! Del Sol and La Luna are now approved Vendors for Palace Resorts =) I have booked Del Sol for my wedding. and am SOOOOO excited hehe. http://www.delsolphotography.com/ http://www.lalunaphotography.com/ La Luna is the sister company of Del Sol, It is ran by their awesome owner Matt =) Del Sol was voted in the top 10 Wedding Photographers in the world. I am sooo in love with their work. Its just unparalleled. They also have a WIKI on this site if you want to check out their work. They have done serval weddings at the Moon Palace, so you can check out your resort too =) http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/wiki/del-sol-photography-slideshows-riviera-maya GL! Let me know what you decide.

I have the following document if it helps. My wedding cordinator sent it to me about decor =) I know its for Aventura, and has about 10 pages of locations that do not apply to you guys, BUT! It also has about 10 pages on optional flowers and decor you can get. Thats sooo awsome! Congrats. You made a rocking choice. Aventura 2010 Private Events.pdf

Hi Ladies, My wedding cordinator at the Aventura Palace sent me this package as well. After I inquired. I don't know why they don't post it on their site. Our MAYAN Wedding Package includes the following: § Location § Symbolic ceremony arrangements § Mayan Shaman to perform ceremony § Floral crowns for bride and groom § Mayan music with pre-Hispanic instruments with a sacred conch shell is performed before and during the ceremony. § Floral and candle arrangements for altar § Fruits of the season for Mayan offerings § Sacred drink “Balche†for bride and grooms toast offering TOTAL COST: $1,000 dlls The prepaid regarding your wedding collection is not part of this ceremony, so in case you would like to have the Mayan ceremony you also need to pay the 1,000 usd. Let me know what you think Best Regards Wilma

No the moon palace would allow them on site. You dont have to book a room but you would have to buy 2 day passes. =) The Moon Palace's Sister Resort La Blanc had Del Sol their photographying a wedding for the Style Channel a few months back. Was pritty cool when they ran the show.

Costume: Party!

Wow very nice! You cleaned house and totally rocked it! I love everything Cyndi! You looked beautiful on your wedding day btw =)

I am doing an underwater TTD. Has anyone tried makeup with that?

Wow...totally missed the boat on that one. Thank you so much for posting this. I wonder how long it takes to recieve this. We have about 3.5 months before the wedding. I will get right on this. Thanks again!

We need a federal copy of our birth certificate? Or just a photocopy? Hmm I need to look over that. I needed know that.

Congrats and Welcome! Thats soo cool you are going to a location you have been to before. Such a pain to plain at place youve never seen =)

I am worried about that too. I want to invite everyone to everything but I don't want them to feel like I am taking up their whole vacation. I recently went to a wedding in Montana and EVERY min was planned, and I never got to sleep in. I was soooo pissed. I am going to add a note in my welcome brochure that while everyone is invite to attend all events. No events are manitory, come and go as you please =) Plus we are doing a Welcome Dinner on Thursday Wedding On Friday Brunch On Saturday. That could take up someones whole weekend. Especally if they have never been to the area before and want to do tours.

Diamonds: Mama Likes!

Hi and Welcome, While I am not getting maried at the Moon Palace I am getting married at their sister resort, Aventura Cove and Spa. In regards to photography. I really think it depends on what you are looking at. The palace resorts photographer seems to be very portait based. Couples standing and smiling. If you like this type of photography and just want some cookie cutter photos to please your parents, this will be more then enough. Personal I feel in love with a Photo Journalism Style. So I opted to go with Del Sol. They are from the area, the owners are Matt and Sol, Matt is from the united states but now lives their with Sol, so the comunication is soooo easy. They were ranked one of the top ten wedding photographers in the WORLD last year. They are rather price but worth every penny. Lucky for you Matt the owner just started a sister company called La Luna, they are about 1/2 to 1/3 of the cost but are amazing. I would defently check them out. Below is the Del Sol Wiki with photos from weddings all over Mexico and the La Luna website. http://www.lalunaphotography.com/ http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/wiki/del-sol-photography-slideshows-riviera-maya Gl!

I am getting married at a different resort in the area. My Photographer is Del Sol. I know they have covered events at this hotel serval times. If you want to see hundreds of their photos of Azul Check out their wiki http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/wiki/del-sol-photography-slideshows-riviera-maya I booked them for 5 hours

I have already printed out the earings and have found them on the Macy's site! Thank you so much, They were just what I was looking for!

WOW you really nailed everything. This is one of my fav's. I think i am going to try to find those earings at Macys. Thank you so much for sharing. I LOVE your STD's did you do those? Your dress is killer btw. I tried on one just like that at Davids Bridal, and looked like sh*t in it lol. Also! I have identical shoes as your from Guess for my Reception. Ha! Kick ass thread =)
