Moon Palace 2012 Brides


Recommended Posts

:) thank you'

 

Coconoir, I absolutely love your 'thank you for booking' brochure! Such a thoughtfull, great idea!! I will definitely start working on the STD! I can't believe my wedding is in more than a year and I feel so behind with planning, haha.. I'm sure I will be okay because I do look forward to planning every little detail of the wedding!

 

Summer12, the barefoot jewelry looks stunning!! I love the colors too..

 

Ndvidul, I am so happy to hear that you are doing many diy things, loving it, and being successful with paint and word.. :) I didn't even think that's possible, but I guess I just have to start playing around with the software I have and if I feel suuuper inspired maybe someday I'll get photoshop. Or pay someone more talented than I am to help. I guess I'll try and go from there!

 

Thank you YWS2012 and everybody else for the nice welcome!

So...are there any other Nov brides out there?

 

Have a great Monday!!

Now to find invites that work, that has been a challenge

welcome.gif Monica!  You made a great decision by choosing the MP!  I did my own website at mywedding.com.  I had Rebecca with Allurements by Rebecca do my monogram.  I  made my STD's on Vista Print (post card) and I am trying my hardest to do Boarding pass invites (special thanks to COCO!!!!) There are sooo many talented ladies on here that my Invites are simple in comparison.  I admire all the ladies on here that are DYI queens.  They have been so helpful to me!  You will find much inspiration on here.  Not to mention everyone shares shares shares!!!  it's so great!

Congratulations on your engagement and on all of the wedding planning!

 

I am soo happy I found this website!! I knew I wanted to have a DW in Mexico, but it was mission impossible to decide which resort to pick. After spending countless hours on this amazing website and forum I decided to get married at the Moon Palace Resort. Beauuuutiful area, fun resort, amazing (seems like) weddings, and reasonable prices..

 

I want to get married November 10th, 2012. I sent in my reservation request and I am waiting to receive my contract... YAY! Are there any other November 2012 MP Brides around? What are you working on?

 

I have looked through hundreds of pages on btw and realized that many of you take on cool DIY projects. I would love to be able to do DIY things... STD, wedding website, so on but I am not sure where to start. I am thinking about the STD..should I pay a professional to design them or should I purchase Photoshop? What programs have you been using to create monograms and STDs and how user friendly are they?

:)

 

I look forward to getting to know you and planning all of the exciting details of my wedding!

-Monica

 


Coco!  I know!  I wish I didn't get so upset, but I am dealing with it!  and I feel better!  I am so excited about the people that are coming!  It's going to be so fun!!!  smile03.gif

Don't get yourself upset over those that will not come!  With the economy things are harder for most than it was before, and some most be cautious as they may not know what is coming ahead.  But others (I have witnessed this) truly spend spend spend and then say "I'm broke" either way don't let them steal your joy!  You will still be a stunning & beautiful bride regardless of who comes.  And when those that came start talking to those that didn't they will be sure to regret not partaking in your most FAB day.  

 



Love them!!!  Great job!!!!

Okay first WELCOME NEWBIES!!welcome.gif

 

 

 

I have been MIA for it seems like a day and you all are busy busy!!  My charger for my computer died so I have to use my FI's dinosaur which makes things difficult.  I have also put myself on a 2 week spending freeze (which my FI thinks is hilarious, but he'll thank me when it's over!) and have been sick.  Lucky for me my  Lame life LOL.smile27.gif

 

So what do I do when I have no energy to do anything but sit on the couch?  Sit on the couch and make things!!  Here's my DIY barefoot jewelry for my bridesmaids!! (Compliments of my amazing new nikon camera, which is the reason I'm on a spending freeze)  The one with more copper in the small beading is for my MOA.  I got most of the beads half off at hobby lobby (note- NEVER buy anything full price at hobby lobby- it will be half off in a week or two!  Just keep checking their ads.  LOL!)

 

SO psyched about them!!  I have to thank {RED-I} I totally stock your webpage for inspiration.  I would have purchased pieces from you in a HEARTBEAT if I wasn't already a jewelry maker myself!  wink.gif

Thank you!!!  It's is hard not to feel disappointment!  But it is what it is!!!  :)

Thank you!!!  I know, I need to remember what its all about!!!!  ME!  HA!!! j/k (a little)  wink.gif

They look Awesome, I too love that the pic was taken at MP!!!  YAY!!!!

Hi Monica ~

 

I'm hoping to be a 11/2/2012 bride at the Moon Palace!  From what I've read so far, this forum is great and is going to be a huge help with planning!  We haven't gotten very far w/ the planning.  We're heading down next month to do a site visit before we officially commit to having it there.  Are you planning to or have you gone there?  Also are you working with a travel agent?  I started to work with destinationweddings.com and I'm not sure if it going to work out.

 

Look forward to talking w/ you and planning together!

 

Thanks,

Carrie

    • 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!
    • 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!
