Hi everyone, I've just booked my wedding and we are due to get married May 2014. So far, communication has been great with the romance team. We have opted for a garden gazebo ceremony and a beach reception using the chill out chic package. We have 56 guests (at present) attending with us so the package price is creeping up! All from the UK and staying in the Reserve. I'm struggling on timings as we want the day to last as long as possibly but with the extra hour prices, the package price keeps creeping up and up. We intend on getting married at 4 pm so any suggestions would be great! I also would like to know what locations they have for the cocktail hour. Any thoughts on this? I've heard that they have an area where the flamingos are located, but not too sure whether this is true and also what the settings look like. I have had communication also with Lara, the decor organiser and she seems to be very helpful. Thanks Nicola

Hi Everyone, I am new to this blog but its re-assuring to see all the positive feedback re the Paradisus Palma Real. I have booked my wedding there for May 2014 and so far 47 of us from the UK will be traveling and staying at the Reserve. I have to say, since booking the wedding I have found the team, Laura, Jessica and Lara really helpful so far! It was a bit of a shock to see all the extras, but of course there will be - it's a wedding;-) I have booked my wedding for 4 pm - garden gazebo, followed by cocktail hour and a beach reception. We plan to have the DJ, but I am struggling on timings as I do not want the reception to finish too early so it looks as though we will have to pay for extra hours. Can anyone advise on this? I have been advised to bring things into the ceremony, so again any advise would be great! I also would like music for the ceremony and cocktail hour but not too sure what to do. I am really looking forward to the wedding and 2 weeks holiday;-)
