Moon Palace 2011 Brides

Have any of you ladies set up a wedding website for your guests?

I was hoping to sneak a peek before designing mine.

Do you mind posting or PMing me the link?

I hadn't heard from her since mid April but she emailed me last night and pretty much she is aware of my updates and we're all set to meet next Wednesday:-)

Also Rae, it's important to know that only SELECT wedding packages can be used... for example, I was NOT allowed to use it for the Immaculate Conception package even though I was told I could when I signed the contract. However, it wasn't listed on the contract so I was as$ed out.

Most of us have figured out that since you can't exchange any of the items in the packages for something else, if it's not exactly what you want you are better off getting the complimentary package and then upgrading individual items.

Hi Ladies, I am here!!!! We arrived around 12 noon, check-in was not so smooth. I had reserved a room on the grand side. They even let me reserve a specific room (yes I have the email confirming). Well we got here and not only did they not have me in the right room but they had me booked on the Nizuc side. I was VERY not happy, but I kept my cool (of course it was not the fault of the lady at the counter). At first she tried to convince me to take the room on the Nizuc. I explained to her that they charged me a little more for the room that I requested on the Grand side and that I would not take less than what I paid for unless they were going to issue a refund. After a little bit of work they put us in a room overlooking Los Tacos, not what I asked for but at least its in the right section. Problem is it has two double beds (kinda small beds) instead of a king. Still not happy because my FI is not a small guy. It will be very hard for both of us to try to sleep in this bed together and we certainly dont want to spend our wedding night sleeping in seperate beds. They said they will work on getting usu moved IF something comes available but "grand is really full right now". Guess I will go and try to make the best of this.

 

If you girls have anything you want me to check out or post pictures of, PM me. I will respond tonight and tomorrow.

How's the weather? I started looking at the forecast and got upset with all the 30-40% chance rain! Also, sorry to hear about the issue with the rooming? Is the resort that packed or just the Moon Grand side?

The cost for hair and makeup went up. I got grandfathered in with the 2010 prices since I booked before March but the 2011 prices are now:

Hair $89

Makeup $65
