The rose pedals are $5 USD a bag!

You can just buy them when you get to the resort?

Yep! My WC just asked me if I'd like to have rose pedals for the ceremony during my meeting with her. If you want it she will just add it to the bill with your wedding package. I asked for 2 bags (1 pink and 1 white) and had her scatter them all down the 'aisle'. There were rose pedals from where my dad and I started walking  all the way up the gazebo. Here's a snapshot of it...

Our daughter was married in a non-legal ceremony at the Barcelo on April 30th (she and her husband were married in a civil ceremony before they arrived in Mexico -- none of the guests knew that they had been married in Canada). They chose a "justice of the peace" for the wedding, and the ceremony was lovely.  No one knew the difference.  The bride and groom signed a "certificate" in front of everyone and the guests just assumed it was the marriage certificate.

I recommend the saxophonist - he's a brilliant and very talented musician.  Our w/c asked what type of music we wanted, and we said something with a Latin/Mexican flavour, and he played lots of great tunes.

We had the saxaphonist play at our cocktail hour instead of the ceremony, I was taking pictures so I didn't hear him, but if you get him make sure you suggest some songs for him to play. I didn't and apparently he played the same song over and over!

Ok, I know I have seen this on here before but cannot find it now.  Were any of you brides upgraded to a stay at the Palace free for having your wedding there or because you booked a certain number of rooms?  My TA is telling me that we can get this in the contract but could not remember if others were able to do this or not...

Question. Has anyone heard if La Luna photography is banned from the Barcelo Mayan Resorts?

Hi girls we're back from our lovely stay at the Palace. We had a horrible check in so i would recommend you email ahead if you want a particular room/building etc. Also be prepared for things to change when you get to resort. Victoria was our WC and she did mess up a little but it all worked out in the end and we had a great stay and wedding there ) just getting over the jetlag )

[JoanneIreland]

Michelle you are back!! Sorry about the hiccups but glad to know it all worked out well. Recover quickly from the jetlag and get back online and give us all the details!!

[Avens]

Yay Michelle! I'm glad it was good. Can't wait to see pictures and review!
