Mayan Palace Regency

Can someone give me Marco's email? My main email isn't up right now, and I think it may be down through the weekend...

Hello! So you and your guest are staying at the Melia next door and getting married at the maya palace regency right? That place LOOKS AWESOME!!! WOW!!!! Congratulations

 

So i'm all lost with this peso stuff.... how much would a small wedding of ~ 30 ppl cost at the mayan? Any ideas and I would want it to look like the one in those pics!!! hehe

FYI I found out from Marco that those extras are usually included with a group of 60+ ppl.

No one from this forum has actually gotten married at the Mayan yet, correct?? I can't wait until reviews start coming in!

Christine has a bunch of posts on the yahoo PV group....she has a nice review and more pictures, too.

FYI after hearing such great things about Prisar Vallarta (WC) I wrote them and I wanted to share with y'all what Priscilla told me in regards to Marco:

 

"Is very important you know the importance of hiring a wedding planner, because even though Marco is an excellent person, he is not as detailed as wedding coordinators are, for tell you an example we always take care that linens are long enough, the setting, etc, and is a linen is in not good condition we ask them to change it, may II explain? We are your eyes since the planning to the end of the event. There are a lot of advantages of hiring a WC. And also if you hire all suppliers through Mayan Palace you will pay a lot more because they earn a profit of each thing. With us, we negotiate with suppliers the best prices for you, we don not increase any supplier price."

 

Kind of bummed but glad to know this info beforehand! We are now looking into getting an outside WC (another 2k, ouch!).

I got to let you know that Priscilla is all about keeping her job which I totally understand. Everything is all about making money. I got the nastiest email from her on another website because I told everyone that I didn't want to hire a wedding planner because I felt I could do it on my own...plus my budget isn't as big. I understand why others have planners. She wrote the most unprofessional email I have ever heard...I don't know how she got my email and why she felt to write it. Beware...don't believe everything you hear. Sorry...I am still a little upset that she sent me that email because I felt like this forum and the other forum I was on was for brides only and NOT VENDORS.

I understand that she could be trying to drum up business. Sorry you had such a bad experience with her! Honestly tho if I am going to be hiring somebody I want them to sell themselves to me. She did a pretty good job of that. Plus other people seem to be having or have had good experiences with her.

I would really like to see a wedding that Marco has done on his own. I'm assuming you're using him alone as your WC? Can't wait to see your pictures!

I felt the same, I actually emailed him last night and asked him to send me pics of weddings he has not done. I need a comparison. I dont think I'm getting Prisar, I really think I can use the 2K and use it elsewhere. I think your buying "peace of mind" for hiring an outside WC, however, I look back at weddings I've attended locally and NONE have used outside WC so I figure we don't really need it.

Amy, thank you so much for your honesty. I remember reading your post on the other forum and always wondered who sent you the email.

Why do you think we jumping on the opportunity! Some one else said that they wanted "Nordstroms on a Target Budget" -- well I'm right there with you! PM me if you want pricing info!

Hi Amy, would you mind sending me the pricing as well?? I'm new to this website and am not sure how to pm you my e-mail is [email protected]. Thanks so much!!
