Hello everyone I've been reading all your posts and was hoping for some advice. I'm looking at getting married at the moon palace in October 2014 so hence unable to book anything quite yet. I'm just a bit confused about how to book the wedding it's self. Does anyone know what the free wedding includes? How much the other packages are? How much is the horse and carriage? Also can u choose your venue?, only I don't want to be married on the beach. I would prefer the gazebo if possible. Sorry for so many questions I'm just trying to work out cost etc. thank you in advance for your replies. Kelly xxx

Hi Kelly! The best thing to do would be to get a travel agent. We luck out because a good family friend of ours is a travel agent so she is doing our wedding btu I have heard that there are some great ones that you can find through this site that specialize in Destination Weddings! My travel agent was able to book my wedding for me and dealt with getting the room block and contract and everything! It has been a stress free ride for me! Also, I have a bunch of documents that I can send you with all types of information including the packages they have and what the complimentary package includes. What is your email address?

Kelly - you should check out their website for pictures of all the different packages, and it will tell you what comes with them all. The basic package works well for girls who want to customize their wedding and bring a lot of decorations and stuff down with them. The package come in handy if you don't want to have to deal with as much on your own.  Like DZaccaria said you should definitely go through a travel agent, but if you go on the Moon Palace Weddings website you can request information from them and they will email you a list of the wedding packages. I have one from 2012 but I can send it to you if you'd like (let me know your email address). You also get a lot of perks depending on how many guests you have (if you book over 75 nights you get a free 7 night stay, room upgrade and unlimited (3 hrs per day) private events)

 

Packages run from free - $4000 (I think is the max?)

 

Horse carriage = $137, one way (does anyone know if this is truly just for 2 people? Both my parents are walking me down the aisle and this is creating an issue)

 

Yes, you can choose your venue, it can be on the beach, in a gazebo, on a terrace or rooftop. Search for Moon Palace Locations and it will pull up different threads with different venues. Also, search under Moon Palace reviews and you can see all the different places girls have gotten married before. You should also look under the Moon Palace 2012 thread, there is a TON of information there.

 

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Previous girls have had a lot of bad experience with the planning process before they arrived to the Moon Palace, but I've been working with them since they've redone things and so far I have had a great experience. My coordinator has been informative and responsive (normally within a week). Like I said above, make sure you check out all the information on this forum, there is SO much. Specifically the Moon Palace Wedding Reviews.

 

Del Sol Photography is AMAZING! Check out their reviews for pictures.

Hi  ,

 

I was actually going to go with the live saxaphone or harpist.  I was told that they can play most of the traditional songs for weddings.  If you want them to play something more up to date, I believe you have to submit a music sheet of that song so that they can read it ahead of time. 

 

We actually decided to save money and go with the ipod/CD option.  Hope it flows....

Thanks for the advice! I think we may go the ipod route in that case. Congrats on your civil ceremony again!! Cant wait to hear about your wedding

Hi Ladies, I just bought a living social deal for Personalized Stamps. I thought it was a great price given that the company that we are getting our invitations from wants to charge $50 for a personalized stamp!!! Who knew invitations were so expensive???Anyway, I hope that you ladies can use this! Happy Planning!
