Newbie, Moon Palace 2013

[kelly1979]

Hello ladies. I am keen to know your thoughts!!! I am looking to get married in November 2014 do therefore I am unable to book the Hoilday untill November this year through a travel agent. However I have been in contact with the moon palace to ask about my wedding and prices etc. I receive a phone call from a lovely lady called Ana. She took all my details and emailed me a wedding contract giving me a date and time for my wedding in 2014. All I have been asked to do is sign the paperwork and send it back along with my credit card details and $460 to reserve my wedding date and time. Has anyone else been in the same position? I always feel uneasy sending my card details 😳 The $460 is said to include all admin and the civial service along with the blood tests, I'm sure that through a travel agent thus would cost more than what MP are asking. Any advice would be greatly recieved. Thank u Kelly xxx

Good Evening Ladies, 

 

This LIving Social Saks 5th Avenue deal was under the wedding section, but I'm not even sure how I can use it towards my wedding at the Hard Rock.. maybe shoes..?? Anyway, I thought you ladies may find it appealing for your upcoming weddings, welcome parties, etc! Enjoy

Hi lovely brides x I'm a newbie bride to be from the UK. I am getting married at the moon palace in 6 months time and need to start putting things into action. For brides who have already got married at the moon did you have a wedding coordinator you could contact before you went? I would really like to have a lounge set up and lantern structure. Does anyone know if the moon palace do this or do I need to contact an outside vendor? Any help and advice would be amazing as I haven't a clue!

Hi, I am a 2014 Moon Palace bride, cannot wait!   I am wondering if anyone has a menu list for cocktails and buffet?  I found a listing on the site  once but I cannot find it again.  The lists that I saw there were about 10 different buffet themes to choose from and I am not sure how many for the cocktail menu.  If anyone has the list could you post it so I can take a look or tell me where I can find it.  I have my date set but the resort won't send me anything else until 90 days prior to the wedding.

Hi. We are getting married at moon palace in less than three weeks time. We are having a private reception on a terrace and have chosen the Italian menu, I am wondering whether anyone had experienced the menus?Are we in for a treat? Many Thanks

Rockerchic - I have the menus happy to email them to you. Send me a personal message with your address and I will get them over to you.

Hi there, congrats, I too am a uk bride, leaving uk in less than two weeks. You will get a wedding coordinator 90 days before your wedding. She will give you details of vendors that they suggest you use, but you can use others with an added fee. We are having a private reception on a terrace with lanterns, and a iPod set up. It's is worth noting that this all costs lighting was a shock, I would advise you to think carefully about purchasing decorations here to take with you - you get charged for set up - this can be more expensive that getting a vendor to do it for you. I made this mistake purchased it here but it was costing so much for set it up I decide to go with a vendor that doesn't charge for set up, we are using Lily at Zuniga she is providing decorations and lighting. The organising is much more in depth than we thought it would be. Let me know if I can help, got menus etc.

Hello Brides, I am getting married in two weeks, I finally worked all my details out after a very difficult week with communication and annoying mishaps on their part. The only thing that I have not figured out is how to communicate with my other guests once we get there. All of us will not have cell phone access in Mexico. Just wondering if any of you ladies have suggestions that you have thought of yourselves? Or if the resort will give us a list of rooms that we are all staying in? Any information will be super helpful! Thank you!

Hi - we are taking walkie talkies - when we were last at the resort we spotted others using them and have picked some up at reasonable price.
