I just got my OOT bags today from Vistaprint, and I think they will work great. I just ordered a few (in seprate orders with some other items) to see how they would look, but I plan to do multiple orders to get the rest free as well. I think they're a great size to use as a beach bag on our trip.

I work downtown & would love to get together & meet. We're leaving for our wedding two months from tomorrow! Most Wednesdays & Thursdays work for me.

Happy planning!!! I'm in the same boat with you. I sent an email 2 weeks ago & no response. In that email, I told her I was switching to the free pacakge too. After reading all the reviews and information on this site, I decided to save the money & just pay for extras. My Miami coordinator is pretty responsive (& she sent me a new contract for the free package), but I haven't bothered her with the fact that my Cancun WP has not responded to my email. I've just decided to relax about all the resort details. It seems like everything can be planned at the meeting with the WP once we get there. I'm now spending my time worrying about my AHR details & the things I'm bringing with me to Cancun. Good luck with your planning.

Most of us arrive before noon, so we'll have to bring a small bag with bathing suits, etc. so we have something to do until our rooms are ready.

Thanks! Just ordered the beer glasses for my AHR!

Love your review! Sounds like (& looks like) you had an amazing wedding. I have the same color scheme, so I'm definitely stealing some ideas. I'm so glad you had such a great experience. Just over 2 months to go until my MP wedding...thanks for all the great tips! Congrats!

I just had to tell him what I want him to wear. Knowing him, he will end up waiting until July to get himself together ;( I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who doesn't have FI/Groomsmen attire picked out for a July wedding!

I've asked my wedding coordinator, but she hasn't repsponded to any of my questions yet. What does the trio consist of? Is it all singers or are there instruments involved? Did you have them for the ceremony or just your cocktail hour or reception? Thanks!

I am having a small wedding at Moon Palace ( 10 people) and was wondering what would be a nice restaurant to have my dinner at? My favorite restaurants when I was there a couple years ago were the Caribbean/Seafood Restaurant on the Grand side & La Trattoria at the Golf Course. A lot of people like the Brazilian steakhouse (Arrecifes), I thought it was just okay. Arrecifes does have a nice outdoor terrace though so your wedding dinner could be more private out there. I don't know if any of the other restaurants have a terrace.

I work in an office of about 15 people & I decided it was easier just to invite everyone. They're not going to come to Cancun, but I've found that they are all very appreciative of the invitation. I'm having an AHR also which some of them might come to, and the added expense of them coming to that is worth it to me. I didn't want it to be awkward in the office if I were talking about the wedding. Also, I'm inviting everyone on my invitation list to both the wedding & the AHR knowing that very few will go to the wedding, but I think people appreciate the thought of being invited to both. And if they want to spend their vacation in Cancun at my wedding...the more the merrier!

Congratulations & great review! Thank you so much for sharing with us. One question: Where did you purchase your napkins, chair sashes & table runners? Your reception setup looks beautiful.

Thanks a ton- Jenna On the front page of the Forum, you'll see "Wedding Reviews" as a subforum under the "Share your Wedding/engagement story" forum. You can use the search function when you get into the "wedding reviews" subforum & search for "Moon." Then you will see all the MP reviews (plus a few random ones that the word "Moon" pulls up.

I'm having an 11:00am ceremony too, but not really by choice. We just got engaged in March, but this summer is the best time for us to get married (we've been dating 8 years, so why wait?), and all the good times were already taken by the time we booked. I think we'll have a short ceremony, followed by a cocktail hour outside with hors d'oeuvres (under umbrellas or a gazebo) while we take pictures. And then I guess we'll have an inside reception and eat lunch. We'll be finished up by 3 or so. I would prefer a dinner reception outside, but I want to wear my dress for the reception & what would I do between the cocktail hour & dinner if we waited to have a later reception? I'm glad to hear about someone else having an 11 am ceremony. I was beginning to think I was the only one.

Congrats & Welcome!
