Moon Palace -Catholic Ceremony

[Moments That Matter]

Great question, lastminutebride - Thx for asking

To help wedding couples with their timing, we've compiled an FAQ page here with sunset times: MTM Mexican Weather Info

 

with info like this:

 

FAQ: What time should I have my ceremony in order to allow enough time for pictures before the sunsets?

The most ideal time is to have your ceremony is 2hrs before the sun sets. Here in the Mayan Riviera, once the sun starts to set it happens very quickly! Less than 20 minutes, so we need to work fast during this time.

 

If your ceremony time does not leave enough time for photos, you do have a few options. 1. Change the time of the ceremony, 2. Do the newlywed photos before the ceremony, or 3. We will use as much light as we can for the newlywed photos, then move into the lobby or other lighted areas for the rest of your couples images. This is not set in stone… just our suggestion to you.

 

For your specific question re early June, here is a link to the time chart: June Sunsets   with the info copied here:

Thanks. Two hours before is 5:26. So, do I go for 5 or 6?

[Moments That Matter]

5 pm would give you more time, so probably less pressure or feeling rushed.....just a suggestion - the final decision is yours, as we could work with either one. Which ever one you choose, it'll be great - and you'll have Amazing photos, with our incomparably magnificent Mayan Riviera for your backdrop - Priceless!!!

 

 

Enjoy your journey! team MTM

[lastminbride]

But it will be hotter and my guest would be under the sun for the cocktail. But on the other hand, as you say, more time for pictures... Thanks, we'll see!

[Moments That Matter]

you're very welcome, lastminutebride! hope it all works out the best way possible for everyone.....Cheers!!!

What reception venue did you pick if you are having the catholic ceremony? I am struggling with this. We are already booked for the Catholic ceremony.

We are having the Catholic Ceremony and my TA said the Venado terrace and Garden they said was closest if looking for an outdoor venue.

I just booked for December '14 for the Catholic Ceremony and would like to know that too! 

 

Have you been in touch with the priest yet? He seems very nice. He is sending me information about the ceremony and what readings we can pick from etc.

Hi Ladies,

 

I am very interested in getting married in the catholic chapel aswell it looks amazing!!

 

Does anybody know if the immaculate package includes flowers for the chapel or do you have to request them at an extra price??

 

Many thanks
