We had our wedding at the Cancun Palace back in May and am just getting around to posting per a pm request. We had 12 guest join us on our trip. We flew into Cancun on Thursday the 19th and after checking in but prior to going to the room we went and had a meeting with the wedding coordinator Cindy. Communication prior to the face to face meeting was rather poor with very slow response time or no response at all. During the face to face meeting I did see that Cindy had printed out all the emails that I sent her and was keeping track of the things I asked about and had concerns with, so the upside is that she was working and taking care of things and the downside was I had no idea it was being worked on. The sit down meeting lasted 15-20 min and we worked through all of the details of the wedding, decorations, flowers, cake etc. They had a binder with tons of pictures to make your selection from and said anything could be changed from their suggestions. I would say that this all went smoothly and was very easy. We gave her place cards, place card holders, seating chart, maracas and everything else. At that point all we had left to do was be on time on Sunday and get to the vacation portion of our trip. One of our carry on bags was packed with stuff for the wedding and gift bags for our guest. In our bags we included cups with a lid and straw so that the guest could pack their bags in the morning for the beach/pool and carry their cups with them to use instead of the little cups you get at the bar. It worked well for our guest and made other guest jealous. We choose the Sapphire Package 1925.00 (1500.00 resort credit applied) 425.00 net the package came with 36 pictures of their choice so we added the CD with all the negatives 300.00 and also added one extra hour of photography 150.00 after the ceremony to get more family pictures on the beach, in front of the hotel and at dinner. Our wedding was at 6 pm and the beach photos were really nice but if you want sunset pictures you will have to move to the front of the hotel because from the beach the sun gets blocked by the hotel as it is setting. here are some pics from the wedding share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=0Ect27Jw1Zs3_Q

I just recently booked my wedding in Cancun for May 2011. I am also hearing from family and friends that Mexico is not a safe area. I have been going on vacations to Mexico once a year for 4 years. I never once felt safe at during any of my trips. I also know not to travel alone or go off the beaten path. The people who are saying things about Mexico not being safe are people who are not educated. You have the wedding of your dreams and don't listen to negative remarks.

I am getting married at Cancun Palace in May 2011. We are thinking of going with the Sapphire collection. I am still waiting to get more details from the WC. I would also like any information/ tips about this resort. Thanks- Monica

Thanks! We are getting married at Cancun Palace.

Getting married May 22nd. We have not done anything just picked the date last night. What do I need to do first? Create a wedding website? Save the Dates?

Hey. I recently got engaged while on vacation two weeks ago. We were in Aruba at RIU when my fiance proposed to me. We knew from that moment that we wanted a Destination Wedding. I don't know where to begin. We want to get married on the beach somewhere that is all we know. We are thinking Mexico either Cabo or Cancun since there are direct flights there daily from Texas. So where do I begin. Should I go straight to a travel agent? Go directly to the resorts? Â Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Â Thanks in advance for you time.
