Beach Palace Cancun Brides

[sramirez]

Hi everyone!

 

My fiance and I are getting married on June 17 at Beach Palace. We're having our ceremony on the Sky Wedding Deck and the cocktail hour and reception on the Sky Bar South. I'd love to hear what brides have used for photographers, lighting, and AV.

 

We took at look at the recommended photographers and AV the hotel sent us. We're not crazy about DreamArt's photos. We don't know which items in the JSAV and PSAV packages are necessary (Do we need four speakers or are two sufficient? Where do the 8 LED lights and consoles go? What are trusses?). And we're not sure what we need to get for lighting on the Sky Bar. 

 

Any insight you could provide would be greatly appreciated!

Hello everyone! My fiancé and I chose BP and are doing a site visit in May with hopes for a October 2017 wedding. My only reservation is I'm having trouble getting a final price, no one will say "this is exactly how much it will be" so I'm not entirely sure if it fits into the budget I've allotted. I feel like every email I get is more fees like paying for open bar. All these reviews are amazing so I know the resort must be worth it but I haven't seen many brides talk about price, Is anyone else finding it hard to get final pricing??

@@Kristilu Hello! Congrats! Pricing is all one big process and it's like that for all resorts. I'd say that pricing will become more clear once you provide Palace with all of your criteria etc. 

 

I'm not too sure about paying for an open bar. We got married in 2015 and there was never a fee to have an open bar. 

 

I'd say to be prepared to have to piece your pricing together as time goes on. There will be some aspects of your wedding that you won't pay for through Palace directly (outside vendors if you use any etc).

 

If you have any specific questions feel free to message me.

Hey. I am planning a wedding for January 2017 at Beach Palace. I would love to get any input on what to do/what not to do. Also if anyone is willing to let me know about how much you spent for the ceremony and reception that would be great. Did most everyone do the civil cermony? I am just a little worried about the blood test in a foreign country. I am a nurse so I am a bit of a germ freak when it comes to stuff like that. Thanks!

Hi

 

I got married at Beach palace in September. We had an amazing day. I too was stressing before hand especially with some communication issues but everything was perfect on the day. Only issues were harpist getting the songs muddled up (minor issue) and photographer not taking any photos of me and my dad.

 

We had a small wedding, 18 of us in total on sky deck then went down a level for our meal and reception. Our guests went to sports bar to cool down while we had photos taken. It was unfortunate there wasn't a nicer bar. We paid for 1 extra reception hour then moved to the nice seats at side of sky bar. We chose the pure package which was beautiful. We went for the Italian menu and the food was delicious. Don't know what you mean re paying for open bar? It's an all inclusive resort! We used dreamart for photography, had a bluetooth speaker for music at night, didn't pay for extra lighting (basic lighting and candles were enough). I struggle to use this site on my phone. As for blood tests I am a nurse too and they were very clean! Feel free to mail me any more questions [email protected]. I struggle to get this site to work on my phone!

$1250 for cocktails and $2750 for reception food is what I was quoted unless I have 75 room nights then 2 hours are free and I pay for the other two hours

@@PunkyAnna Feel free to message me on here if you have any specific questions at all! We didn't do a civil ceremony in Mexico as we really didn't like the idea of the blood test so we had our legal papers signed here prior to our symbolic ceremony in Mexico.

Have any brides done the site visit? Did you find it helpful and were you able to meet with vendors and pick your options while there?
