Without knowing which beach location you are having the ceremony at, this is a tough question.  If you are having it at the Tucan Beach ceremony site (which is in front of Nizuc) it is going to be a very long walk from Sunrise section.  The Tucan Gazebo and Tucan Beach are at the far end of Nizuc (closest to Grand Section, and farthest from Sunrise Section).  There are a handful of terrace's along the way, from Nizuc to Sunrise, and any of them would be fine.  Some are much larger than others (Moonlight terrace is HUGE).  I would take a quick look at a map, and get an idea of where each terrace is located.  I guess pick something located in between your beach ceremony and the Sunrise section.

Which beach location do you think is more private?

To be completely honest, I am not sure any of them are very private.  Most of them are set up in a manner that you shouldn't have people walking through the ceremony, along the ocean.  However, you will likely have some people watching from the shore no matter where you are set up. 

 

We are having our ceremony in a Gazebo, not on the beach, so I didn't take a real in-depth look at the beach locations.  I did take quite a few photos of the Tucan Beach set up, as we saw numerous weddings there in the couple days we spent at the resort. Our room had a veiw of both the Tucan Gazebo and Tucan Beach set-up.

That is what I figured..As long as people are not getting in my photos and walking the beach in front of the ceremony, I don't mind if people are watching from the shore.  Thanks for your input!

Any of you lucky ladies that were able to do a site visit get a chance to sample the menu choices? If so, any recommendations?? I'm in the process of picking my menu and I'm clueless as to what option to go with. It's tough making decisions without knowing whether or not it's good. I'm open to all suggestions. Thanks

What's the difference between Tucan Terrace and Venado Terrace?

[coconoir1908]

MPWeddingPlan maybe able to assist you with this question as she was able to conduct a site visit.  However; I am unsure as to how often she is on the forum.  So, you may also want to post this question to the Moon Palace 2011 Brides as they have either had and/or will have their wedding soon.

They are very similar to the same size and they are actually quite close to one another.  The Venado Terrace is right in front of the Venado building of rooms (which you can find on the property map - its the Deer), right in between where the Nizuc side meets the Grand side.  There are pics of it in this thread....post #110 and #111.

 

The Tucan Terrace is right next to the Tucan Gazebo, and right along the Tucan Beach.  Its very similar in both size and shape, and is right along the ocean as well.  You can probably see one Terrace from the other, they are less than 200 yards away from each other.  You can see the Tucan Terrace in post #113 (far left side of image). 

 

If you have any other specific questions, I would be more than happy to try to answer them.  If you are choosing between the 2 terraces, you can't go wrong.  They are basically the same size and shape, and in the same area.
