OOO you lucky girl! I had that on the top of my list but it was just getting too expensive for our guests.  Best of luck to ya!

lol, yes, its a bit more expensive than some other resorts in punta cana which would help keep the guest # low but....it didn't. about 64 so are going so far... lol

Welcome and congrats to all the new brides  It is so exciting to see everyone find their dream resort and start the planning process.

 

The resort search really is difficult but I trusted my heart and am so glad I picked the Moon Palace.

Just went from having nothing done but a resort picked to a whole action packed weekend of wedding.  First thing done was changed my resort and country and am now booked in Cuba instead at the brand new Riu still for the same date of March 14, 2012.  I also found my wedding dress and am so in love with it!  Today is wedding invitation day so heres to hoping that my first DIY project will turn out great!

I feel so behind schedule with booking a place and sending out STDs. Now the WC at one of the resorts near Playa del Carmen told me that they cannot have beach cocktail hours or receptions from Late April to November because the music and lights disturb the sea turtles laying eggs. Have any of you heard this from resorts? I am trying to figure out if this goes for the entire coast of Riviera Maya or just this specific resort. I was so excited to have a beach reception with 65 guests and am really upset hearing this news. If any of you have suggestions that would be great! Thanks!

 

I'm getting married on April 20th, 2012 at the Royal Playa del Carmen, and our reception is on the beach - never heard about the sea turtle thing.

June 9th, 2012!

 

Not a destination wedding, but still a beach wedding!

 

We have our:

 

Ceremony booked,

Reception site booked,

Rentals booked,

Officiant booked and paid for,

DJ booked and paid for,

Photographer booked

Bridesmaids & Flower Girls dresses picked out

Videographer booked

 

Musicians about to be booked

Transportation to be booked soon

 

In the process of getting flowers (Very picky about my colours so it's taking a while )

 

Have someone I'm going to get back in contact with for invitations, but I think it's too soon for that yet .

Have the stuff to do our wedding favours, and have started collecting stuff to do our own thank you cards .

 

I have a dress in mind but am going to go dress shopping once more before I decide for sure.

 

I LOVE that we had over a year to plan it! It has given me a lot of time to bargain shop, and take my time to find vendors, etc.

 

I think the only 'main thing' we haven't figured out yet, is who is going to do our cake .

Just wanted to let you all know, they came to agreement and regular business starts tomorrow with no delays
