Welcome welcome welcome to the best thread on this forum (I am totally biased though;-)

 

IMO the top priority would be to SET your budget, get our your STDs (save the dates), have your website ready (if you plan to do one), and decide whether you will use a TA, do thing on your own, or go direct with MP, having this done will allow you and your guest to plan payments accordingly.

I'm going to be using the spa for my hair and one of my photographers is doing my makeup but my girls and mom are using the resort spa for hair and makeup and using the resort credits for it!

I will definately look at the two you recommended..any other recommendations are more than appreciated as well

 

 

Is everyone using the spa for their hair and makeup?!
 

 

 

I'm not using a TA either and going directly through the resort.  Instead of having it paid fully 2 months beforehand under the membership- I got them to change it to 30 days before arrival.

Hi ladies, does anyone have any ideas on where the best place to have the ceremony & cocktail hour at moon palace?

Kind of wondering this myself. I know I read this somewhere in here, but don't recall where. How have y'all reserved locations so far in advance? We're going to have some 50-75 people (guessing) on the Sunrise side (not definite) so would like to have these big things taken care of. Think ceremony and cocktail hour outside (4pm ceremony) but the reception inside (so it can be air conditioned, easier on the older folks in our party). Would also like them all fairly close together, again to make it easier on the older folks. Any help would be awesome, thanks!

Hi, I was just wondering how we're you able to extend the payment under the membership?  Also who are you working with?  I tried & they seem to be very strict about the 20% deposit needed to book the family suites, & having to have it paid 2 months before arrival!
