  1. Hey vanessa!! They are whatever color you want them to be. I asked my WC if it could be any color other than red, white or pink and she asked what color I wanted: if you told them and it's on your PO you should be fine- here is what mine said and they will confirm it at your meeting!!
  2. It was busy but fun!! All of our guests keep asking when we are going back!! I actually got married at Sun Palace! But we had our rehersal dinner on the verando terrace by the grand side and it was great- very quiet and secluded over there! I saw plenty of weddings at MP while we were there- our room was right next to the catholic chapel and the beach locations! My wedding was at 4pm, cocktail hour at 5 and reception from 6-10. Do you have your locations picked out?
  3. You are welcome!! I can't believe it's been 6 months since we were married but the day was perfect!! Aside from having my hair re-done 3 times (due to the language barrier and miscommunication) everything went perfectly! You can't imagine how great you will be treated once you get there- they want you to have everything you've ever imagined!! We are hoping to return to MP in November for our anniversary since we didn't really get to enjoy the resort as we were busy doing wedding stuff all week. We arrived on Monday, I had my bachelorette party on Wed (also when the majority of our guests arrived) and we met with our WC on Tuesday, TTD session and rehersal/welcome dinner on Thursday, wedding on Friday and then we had Sat and Sun to relax and then we left on Monday. Let me know if you have any other questions!! Shanna
  4. Thanks! They aren't very hard to make- just a little time consuming since there are a few steps to them! PM me if you have any questions! Shanna
  5. Hi- here is the bouquet included in the complimentary package- I did not end up using as I had Marvin make my flowers- so it was my back-up bouquet just in case!! But they were pretty and simple and also the bout for my husband that was also included.

  6. I would contact your WC- I don't think they allow this to be done. You will probably have a hard time getting the box through customs.
  7. Well thank you for your honest opinion!! Sounds like we will not be going there any time soon! That night club sounds like a joke- i can't believe you have to pay for drinks!! I think we may be going back to Moon Palace for our one year anniversary!
  8. That is correct, if you have them staying at the resort (for 2 or 3 nights- I think 2 is the min) there is no extra fee as they are guests of your wedding. we flew down a local photographer and her assistant and we paid for their hotel for 3 nights and I did not have to pay anything extra as I counted them as guests of our wedding and their room nights counted towards my 75 nights!
  9. The weather is perfect in November!! I got married on Nov 23, 2012. It's high 70s and low 80s during the day and in the high 60s/ low 70s at night, so make sure you pack a sweater cause with the wind it can get chilly! The only downside to Nov is that is gets dark earlier but it keeps you from being in the sun too long and turning into a red lobster!
  10. Book with a TA- a lot less headache than booking directly with the resort (this website is run by a TA so if you don't have a TA in mind- send them an email!) The TA should be able to get you a better group rate and you will benefit with the group perks as long as your TA is aware of these benefits and your guests book through your TA! My wedding was Nov 2012 and it think we paid about $175/ night per person for double occupany.
  11. I am not 100% certain as I reached the 75 nights, but yes I do believe the $300 a table only applies to those who do not get the free reception.
  12. Congrats!! We went to the disco a couple nights- one night it was mainly techno but then when we went after the reception was over (friday night) it was more "normal" dance music with a techno song about 1 every 10 songs.
  13. No they do not charge you per guest if you get the free 3 hour event. What they will charge you is per table after those 2 hours that are included in the dinner reception. For example- if you have your wedding at 4, cocktail from 5-6 and reception from 6-10- you will pay per table (I think it's like $80-100) per hour for anything over those 2 hours that are included in your "freebees" The 30 persons you are referring to is the dinner reservation in a restaurnat that you could use in lieu of a private reception.
  14. You can probably use your iphone- I felt it was easier giving a cd at the meeting and then not having to worry about getting the WC the iphone before the ceremony and making sure it was returned to me.
  15. Hi Lilypod- The complimentary package comes with a tech to play music at your ceremony- they set up speakers- you just have to provide a CD and list of songs to be played when. If there is only 4 of you I don't think you need anything other than the horse and photographer! You may want a videographer if you want to show everyone else your ceremony when you return (I just had my future brother in law record the ceremony). Everything is so gorgeous the way it is!! I made starfish raffia decorations for the aisles but that was all I added to the ceremony on the beach! Let me know if you have any other questions! Shanna
  16. Welcome and congrats!! Check out Moon Palace in Cancun!! That is where myself and my guests stayed and it was great- we had a group of 40 people! There are plenty of Moon Palace threads out there so be sure to check those out and let me know if you have any questions!
  17. I bought a backless bra from Kohls that worked great! It stuck so well it actually ripped some skin off when I took it off at night lol! I ended up buying gel pads to add to the bra and there wasn't enough "ump" from the bra in my dress (God blessed me with a nice butt and no boobs! haha).
  18. I am already married! I got married November 23rd 2012. So if you have any questions feel free to PM me!
  19. My TA secured my date for me- I did not go directly through Palace resorts to book my wedding date, so I think either way works!
  20. They can easily change your section if you need it- there are so many rooms and you are still far away from your wedding date! Honestly- I would wait until closer to the wedding like Sept to see where construction is and if it will even affect you. When I was there in Nov 2012 they were working on the sunrise side and we stayed in the Nizuc and really the only construction was a section of the lobby and one of the pool bars were closed other than that nothing was affected. I think your guests will be just fine!
