I'm back... and now a Palladium bride-to-be! ***PICS***

[Emily&Matt]

Wow, that is really beautiful. I love the Blue Lagoon restaurant. If I get married outdoors on a beach, I'd want to have the reception where everyone can see the water too.

I would say yes, especially depending on how you have it set up. It's one of the main buffet restaurants for breakfast and lunch only so it's pretty big.

In this pic the section off to the left is the Indian restaurant, and the two sections to the right are both in Blue Lagoon. To the very far right and out of frame is the Italian restaurant.



Below is the view from the other side. In this pic, you see the Italian restaurant and the Blue Lagoon is the part sticking furthest out into the pool.

(Can you tell I took a LOT of pics while I was there??)

Thanks for all of the info!! The sunset is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! We heading down to GP Oct 9th-13th to check it out. I am hoping that they have the beach location fixed up by then, since that is where I would like to have my ceremony. Do you think 50+ people could fit on the beach area?

 

I will post pictures of the updates/repairs that they have made since the hurricane. Thanks again for the great pics and information, it helps a lot!! I feel a lot less stressed out just seeing how amazing it looks in your pics.

 

One more thing...did you talk with her about getting a block of rooms discounted for your wedding guests? YAY! I am SOO EXCITED!!!

Definitely looking forward to your updates in October! I'm not sure how many people can fit at the beach location, but it was in a nice location- La Brisas beach. (see map below)

The gazebo is going to be located at what's labeled as "Lookout Point" on the map.

We chose not to pay deposits to hold rooms for the group, so I didn't inquire about that. We're using a travel agent who is booking our guests on packages from Apple Vacations, which are still really good.

Also wanted to share this resort map with everybody as well:
