I believe you have to buy them a day pass for the day

Thank you Shano487! My WC says they are no longer allowed because of electrical problems... not sure if it is worth pushing it with this

Always changing their minds..sounds about right.  If it's important to you wait until you are 90 days out and ask your onsite wedding coordinator or maybe another bride on here has asked and has gotten a different answer! Good luck!

Thank you Shan, I will try that approach! For now trying to see the silver lining and telling myself this will save me money, haha!

Does anyone know how big the complimentary round tables are for the private events? 72x72?

 

Thanks!

I have a travel agent handling my booking, but there are several of my guests who are members.  At the  end of the day it looks like I am going to have 4 rooms with a total of 9 people who are booked outside of my group but all staying at the resort. 

 

I was told that these rooms would not count towards my room or room night count AND that I would be charged a fee of $50 per person for each private function for anyone booked outside of the group.  I am not sure if my travel agent was simply trying to scare me into making everyone book through her.  I do not think I will need those 4 rooms to meet the 75 night level - just don't want to pay an extra fee for 9 people at multiple events!!  Does anyone have any experience with this?

 

I am a little afraid to ask my onsite coordinator now.  I am thinking it might be better to just show up with the extra people... thoughts?

Hi everyone we are getting married at the moon palace 23rd of October,we booked 18months in advance and have had our wedding since June 2012. Can't wait :-) xx

Your agent is actually correct.  If your guests do not book through the group block they are not counted for the free amenities (including free events) and will get charged per head for set up, seats, etc.

 

Also, you may want to give your WC a heads up because if they find out by doing a head count, not only would that be awkward with the WC but what if there are not enough charges, table settings, etc.?

Hi Ladies!

 

I am getting married at MP August 3, 2013. Will any of you also be getting married around then? 

 

Has anyone heard anything about the live saxophone song options? I can't seem to get any information but want to narrow down our ceremony song choices with FI. Any advice is appreciated! Thank you!
