Thanks! I am working with Katrina Colon- she's been very helpful with checking several dates/times for me. I ended up booking the free package because I won't be getting my flowers from MP and I figured it'd be less stressful to add extra things on than to lose out by not using certain parts of the larger packages. It seems like a few other brides had success doing that as well...

This is your day to be a princess. Every princess needs a carriage. You'll see the beautiful pictures later of you arriving in the carriage and you will be so happy you did it!!

I was just browsing through some posts and I remembered I didn't share anything about transportation in my review.

 

Most of my guests used the shuttle service that is offered my the company that services the Moon Palace. It is $23/person (round trip). (Palace Resorts). No one had any problems finding the shuttle or with timing.

 

The resort has a special cab rate from the Moon Palace to the airport of $20 (up to 4 people). The catch is that the special rate only applies from the resort to the airport. The rate from the airport to the Moon Palace can range anywhere from $40-60. That is ridiculously expensive considering the trip from the airport to the resort is about 10 minutes.

 

You can also arrange for a private van through the groups coordinator. The van can seat up to 10 people and it will only cost $53 each way. If this is of interest, please contact Gabriel Silva Alvarez ( gsilva@palaceresorts.com ). He can make those arrangements for you.

Moon Palace Brides, I am working on confirming my date at Moon Palace presently and had a question or two. Has anyone had their ceremony in the actual chapel? I thought that would be great, except people may not get to see you that well coming in on the horse carriage, but the chapel looks really pretty. If anyone has an photos or comments, that would be great, before I lock everything in. I am also wondering if everyone does a reception after? The reason I ask is because we are trying to not spend much money, but I want everything to be nice, but if we are going to have to pay a bunch, we could just stay here and do it and be able to have everyone at the ceremony. With a destination wedding, our friends with new babies, won't be able to make it. We just figured dw is best for us since we don't have large families, my parents are not paying for a wedding, we love to travel and this way we can keep it smaller (50 people?) and not spend $20k - $100k!!! We have a ton of weddings and bachelorette/bachelor parties this year, so that's already costing us a fortune and I recently went back to school to finish my Masters.

 

Also, how much is it for the stereo equipment for us to play our own ipods? I haven't seen that listed on any of the paperwork. Does everyone like the photographers there that you have to use? I am only interested in a video of the ceremony on dvd and a cd of all of our photos, I don't need anything printed out at all. Do you have to purchase a package to get the cd? I would want them to take photos at the ceremony, as well as the reception (if we have one) and just get a cd so I can decide what we want to do with the pictures. Just wondering if anyone knows if that's possible?

 

Sorry so long, thank you for your help!!

 

Happy Holidays everyone!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
