Hi All,

The more I research, the more I love the Grand Palladium. But I have a few questions that I can't find answers to which might be a deal breaker for us. worried2.gif I am putting them below. Any help would be great! Thanks wink.gif

 

 

1.) Can you specif who you want your officiant to be?

We will already be legally married and would like to have a cosmic ceremony by Maria and Charlie. Is a symbolic cosmic ceremony by Maria & Charlie possible?

 

2.) Is it possible to bring a fake bouquet instead?

I am allergic to pollen and I can't have a real bouquet.

 

3.) Can we replace the red carpet walkway to the garden gazebo with our own runner?

 

4.) Can we bring our own decorations and set them up?

Things like chair ties, decorations for the pillars, etc.

 

5.) What times are ceremonies held?

 

6.) Besides the gazebo is there a Chuppah on the beach for the ceremony?

 

7.) Are the resort actives fun for all ages?

We have ages 20-65 going and none of them are big drinkers. I want to make sure they will have a good time.

 

8.) Is dinner on the beach for our reception a possibility?

 

9.) Do the sit down restaurants offer breakfast and lunch?

 

10.) Do we need to buy a wedding package at all or can we get one customized to meet our needs?

As you can see we really don't need/want many of the things in the standard package. What are our options? I don't want to pay for a bunch of things we don't want. The only things we really want is the location, chairs and table.

Hi RosieM!

I am also planning my wedding at the Grand Palladium. I'll try to answer your questions the best I can. Have you emailed the WC Rocio at all? She has been great with answering all of my questions so far!

I don't know who Maria & Charlie are? I have heard of brides that bring their own officiant and have had some $$ taken off the wedding package cost.

Yes! :)

I don't see why not. I am actually thinking of doing this for the beach setup as I don't want a red carpet walkway either.

Yes, you can bring whatever decorations you want. You would give them to the WC at your meeting before the wedding and as far as I know, they will set everything up for you.

5.) What times are ceremonies held?
Not sure of all the times but I do know that 1:00, 2:00, 3:00 and 4:00 are options (upon availability).

Yes :)

The resort is huge so I'm sure there will be something for everyone! Try visiting this site for some great info on the Palladium (there is also a forum with lots of knowledgable people)

Not that I know of...

Only the Royal Suites restuarant El Jardin offers breakfast (for Royal Suites guests only). None of the a la cartes offer lunch.

You would have to talk to the wedding coordinator about this. Good luck getting more info!! I hope this helps a little cheesy.gif

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      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!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      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!
