That being said, the mic wasnt used for the event. There wasnt much of a need. The dinner table was set up as one long table. The speech was just before the cake cutting, with everyone right near by. Perhaps..... if it was used we would have been charged

There wasnt an extra fee paid for the mic for us...... just the site fee

The wedding was the first week of October 2008. The hotel has a contingency plan in case of rain. They have a ballroom of sorts that is utilized in those situations.
We did dinner and dessert and dancing on the beach, the fee was the same as the poster above. ($500).
As far as speeches go, they have a sound system that gets set up and there is a mic that can be used.

Yes, the wedding that I arranged was at the palace. I would ask the coordinator at the hotel for the beach option. Besides, if you dont ask..... you dont get

I dont think the disco is worth renting.
What we did was perfect for what the wedding was. Dinner was on the beach and we paid extra to have dancing on the beach. I brought a iPod with a playlist for dinner and for dancing. They set up a dance floor, lighting, sound and a DJ. We played the music for dinner and after everyone was done, the bride and groom got up, walked to the dance floor, signaled the DJ and did their first dance in the sand.
We could only have that set up until 11. After 11, whoever still wanted to party, went to the disco.

The day pass is correct. You can have any vendor you want at the hotel, but you have to arrange a day pass. Its $100 per head. They will have to provide identification and they have to be on the list of visitors for that day.

The part that was the most frustrating was that the girls wanted something basic. Something wavy and free.... Carrie Underwood kinda style. And what they got was far from that.
They kept saying that the hair had to be hairsprayed down a whole lot because the wind will destroy it (the wedding was on the beach). The girls said they were ok with that wind blown sort of thing.
The whole thing was rather frustrating. But like I said, the mani, pedi and massages were great there

We used the spa at the Riu for the wedding in October. The bride and the maid of honor were so unimpressed after the trial run, that they cancelled the hair appt for the actual wedding day.
That being said, everyone that went to the spa for a massage, mani, pedi etc; were all very happy with the services.
I guess hair is not really their forte

I am considering getting married at the Riu Palace and i love the idea of having the dinner and dancing on the beach.
Did you request to have one long table or is that the set up for weddings on the beach?
Also, how big was your dancefloor? I'm curious about your set up.
I have a picture here of the table, but it isn't uploading.... hmmm...
If you would like to see a picture, pm me and I can try and email it to you.
