Moon Palace 2008 & 2009 Brides - POST HERE!

[Mrs D To Be!]

omg i want elizabeth medina!! obviously its too early for us to book...we will wait til the wedding has been booked and confirmed then that is next to organise. Which of elizabeth's packages have you chosen? If we are lucky enough to get her, I want 6 hours then a TTD session!

 

Have you let MP know you are bringing her? I know from people on this forum that it won't be a problem as long as they are a "guest" at the hotel...but just wondering if you have ran it by MP as well?

 

One last question...get me, little miss nosey...but I have communicated with Elizabeth through email, and she had said we would be required to pay for her accommodation....do you know what mp's rate is for one night?

 

sooo many questions...sorry lady! but soo happy i have found someone in a really similar situation as me! woo hooo!

I'm not gonna tell moon palace I'm bringing her. I'm just going to book her a room! She's going to be our "guest" She's doing a wedding at MP in August, and was gonna get the scoop for me! She's originally from the US, so she'll blend right in with my family as our "guest". I figure what the MP doesn't know won't hurt them. I don't know how much the room will be for 1 night through my TA, but on expedia its approx $400 a night.

We have her for a 6 hour session and I'm not doing a TTD because I have to wear it again when I get back for our at home reception! She's so great to work with so far and I can't wait!!!!

cool cool lady, thats good to know, didn't know whether i would be best telling mp or not....she has done mp before right enough, but if we are paying them money for her to be there, what can their problem be?!lol

can't wait to hear your reviews lady!!

We've gotten "it's too expesive" from people, and you're right you do take it (at least slightly) personal, I don't know if there's a way not to. I just take a deep breath, remind myself that this is part of having a destination wedding and tell the person I understand if they can't make it, but hey, you never know what'll happen in a few months, they might be able to come last minute...and I leave it at that.

thanks for the advice about the friends....i just keep telling myself it'll all workout! It'll all workout =)

 

And i keep looking at your countdown thinking...yeah!!!! =)

[Dez921714]

That's right! We basically have the same count down!

 

I have to admit...it's technically less than 6 months and I'm starting to stress...

Check out page 39 of this thread, that is where the beach set up pictures I found are located (There you will also see the set-up I want lol)

If you get info on any other beach set-ups (or cost) please let me know as I am leaning towards a beach wedding and your wedding is before mine so you will get that info before me.

I contacted Elizabeth Medina 9 months before the wedding (I was waiting on wedding date confirmation etc) and she was already booked, so if you are interested in booking her do it way in advance, she told me all she needed was a retainer. I actually went with matt adcock from del Sol photography and they are great too!

Ive gotten its too expensive from my own brothers and sister. It doesnt look like they are able to come and it is very hurtful but you know what, this is what i wanted and I have to deal with the consequences. I also feel that i am having a dinner reception back at home anyways that everyone can come to so they will atleast be there...but it still would be nice to have my big sister stand next to me on my wedding day. She lives in Australia as it is so I never get to see her. SO i hear ya there girls. Its a toughy but its what i always wanted to have a destination wedding.

omg i would be heart broken if she was already booked! i think mp start taking bookings in january for 2010...i will book the wedding date as soon as that has been booked, then straightaway try get elizabeth medina booked...hopefully with 16 months in advance i will get her!!
