Hi

For our June 2012 wedding we hired the resort DJ ($300 for 3 hours) for our beach party. I'm not sure if they rotate DJ's, but the one we had didn't really speak English. Wasn't a big deal to me since I'm fluent in Spanish.
I can't remember his name. I took my own music on a CD and ipod and handed those to the DJ to play. I have to admit, he wasn't very enthusiastic, looked tired, did not interact with guests. Basically sat in his beach bar hut and played music, just that.

I have heard good things about DJ Mannia (outside vendor), his price is around $800 I believe.

Hope this helps.

Hi there,

I am getting married at the Grand Palladium Palace October 7th, 2012. I just found out about this site yesterday from another destination bride!! I just wanted to know how your weddings went at the Palace. We have been contemplating a private dinner vs a semi-private. Also, I wondered if the Palace provided a sound system or anything for the actually wedding ceremony?

Any answers would be much appreciated!!

Thanks!!

Dj mannia raised his prices I think its $900 now. That's what he charged us, it might even be $950 right now. I hope he's worth the money because on top of his fee, we also have to pay a $180 fee to have them on the resort.
