Safe travels my friend!  The puppy boy was taught by his daddy (FI) to climb the down the steps today... YAY!  Progress.  Now if I can only settle myself on decor.

So, I am leaving for Palm Springs, CA tomorrow for the rest of the weekend.  So...I hope you all have a great weekend, filled with DIY projects, puppy love, wedding planning and of course wine or whatever your drink of choice is

Thank you for the responce, I have a photographer already. I was told I could when I booked but now am being told I can not use my dollars towards anything wedding related unless I get a $3,000 Colin Cowie wedding package. I am not happy that I will be expected to pay 1000 cash now for a few small options and two room nights for the photographer. I could barely afford this trip, we did 9 days to get 2000 resort credits which seems like a waste now. This is the exact opposite of what my friends experience getting married at Moon palace was.

You can use your credit points/credits for Spa or for Palace memories (pictures with animals), but not anymore for weddings, however we made new packages so you can have more pictures for your wedding, right now we have a new promotion to win a Free TTT, B&A, Engagement o Pre-wedding photo session, hope you can visit our Facebook page  http://ow.ly/8GgIS

Hi Gina Bina:

 

I believe as long as you book any Colin Cowie wedding package, except the Nautical and the Complimentary, you can use your full $1500 resort credits towards upgrades and such (has to be full amount). But I find it's ridiculous the prices they ask for that so instead I am getting the Complimentary wedding and bringing in most of the decor myself ( I added it up and lights, lanterns, centre pieces, etc - without fresh flowers - is WAY less than 1000 dollars, so I didn't waste my money on their wedding packages since they didn't even allow for alterations and the colou suck). 

 

I asked Ivis how some people were able to pay $400 to bring in the photographer into the resort and how she had written that they have to be a guest in the resort instead, so she said she will look into it, since it may be a rule that has changed since a lot of stuff is changing this year. I will let you know.

Hi Gina Bina:

 

Im so sorry to hear that you need to pay more for something you was expecting to be cheaper, i really dont know why they change the rules and why you need to pay more!!

 

Please ask to your wedding coordinator where and when you can use the credits you already have, well maybe not for the wedding  but this credits need to be usefull for something

 

Ok keep me in touch i want to know what happends!!

 

Have a great day

My personal experience is that most of us have been told since the beginning, that you can use your Palace Resort points/vacation dollars towards wedding collection packages....however, you are NOT allowed to use the resort credits to pay for any options or add-ons.

Thank you for all the info!  We are May 17th 2012   this is getting very stressful. I have been back and forth with Jaun Navaro but I'm not so sure on how to get him in. I talked to my cordinator and she said 3 nights. I think that is BS and he said he has been able to use a day pass or one nite stay.  What are you doing for this situation?  Also does anyone know anything about the in house photogs? Thanks again!!!

I found my photog on this site, there are tons of reviews on here of different vendors in general.  I found they are super responsive and quick.  They will give you quotes and you can go from there.  You can also ask us again once you have narrowed it down on who we are using, etc....

 

But if you want some names, here are just a few in the Cancun/Riviera Maya area:

Del Sol

La Luna

Octavio Montes

Gonzalo Nunez

Sascha Gluck

Ismael Pacheco

Ivan Luckie

 

All the above are great.  But they vary in price, so it depends on your budget... 

 

Good Luck and Happy planning!
