Moon Palace Wedding Packages: Cancún, Jamaica & Real Costs (2027-28)
Moon Palace is one of the most-searched wedding brands in the Caribbean for a reason: enormous resorts, a wedding machine that runs dozens of ceremonies a week, and a genuinely attainable free-wedding deal. What’s hard to find is the actual math. This guide lays out the real 2027 Moon Palace wedding packages across all three destinations — the Cancún campus, Moon Palace Jamaica, and Moon Palace The Grand in Punta Cana — from the $1,100 Simply Heart-to-Heart package to the $15,000 Luxe package for 75 guests, plus the room-night rule that makes the 30-guest Complimentary package free, and the six-figure Mahal packages for South Asian weddings at the Palace family’s Cancún resorts. Every number comes from our resort database; our planning help is free because resorts pay us, not you.

The Moon Palace wedding package ladder, explained
Moon Palace prices weddings as a ladder of named packages with a set guest count included and per-person rates beyond it. According to Hola Weddings’ database of 858 resorts, the 2027 ladder by destination looks like this:
| Package | Cancún campus | Moon Palace Jamaica | The Grand – Punta Cana | Guests included |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Complimentary | Earned via room block | Free at 30+ paid room-nights | Earned via room block | ~30 |
| Simply Heart-to-Heart | $1,100 | — | $1,150 | 10 |
| Heart-to-Heart Deluxe | $1,300 | — | $1,700 | 10 |
| Petite | $2,200 | $2,000 | $2,672 | 10 |
| Classic | $4,000 | $3,700 | $4,198 | 30 |
| Prestige | $11,000 | $12,500 | $13,800 | 50 |
| Luxe | $15,000 | $15,650 | — | 75 |
Read the ladder against your guest list, not the sticker. A 30-guest wedding fits the Classic package at $4,000 whole; a 40-guest wedding on the same package adds per-person costs that we quote exactly for your date. And note the pattern across destinations: Jamaica runs slightly cheaper at the Petite and Classic tiers, Punta Cana slightly higher across the board. You can compare wedding packages across brands on our packages hub — including the Classic package at Moon Palace Cancún in detail.
How the free Moon Palace wedding actually works
The free Moon Palace wedding is real and more attainable than most couples assume — it’s a Complimentary package covering roughly 30 guests, earned through your group’s room bookings rather than bought. The clearest rule in our database is Moon Palace Jamaica’s: the package is included at no cost with a minimum of 30 paid room-nights within the wedding group, with individual bookings of at least 3 nights. In practice, ten couples staying three nights gets you there — a threshold most real wedding groups clear without trying. Cancún and Punta Cana run equivalent earn-it-with-your-block programs whose current thresholds we confirm at quote time, and the Complimentary package at Moon Palace Cancún and at Moon Palace Jamaica pages break down what’s inside. Two cautions: the room block must be booked as a wedding group to count, and the complimentary tier covers the essentials — upgrades (florals, private receptions, extended photography) are where budgets quietly grow. Our guide to group rates for wedding blocks shows how to make the same rooms do double duty.
Moon Palace Cancún: Sunrise, Nizuc & The Grand
The Cancún operation is a three-part campus ten minutes from Cancún International Airport: Moon Palace Sunrise and Moon Palace Nizuc form the classic Moon Palace Cancún resort, and Moon Palace The Grand – Cancun (marketed as The Grand at Moon Palace) is the newer, showpiece section with its own venue collection. All three share the ladder above, so the real choice is atmosphere and venues. The Grand’s wedding roster is the deepest: a Catholic chapel (60 guests) and Chapel Garden for up to 200, the Tucan and Bugambilias gazebos (120 each), Lake Terrace for up to 300, a beach setting for 200, a 60–80 guest Meditation Garden, and ballroom space for indoor receptions. That chapel matters if a Catholic ceremony is non-negotiable — it’s one of the few at a Cancún all-inclusive. Browse photos on the Moon Palace Cancún venues page and the Moon Palace The Grand venues page, or zoom out with our Cancún wedding packages guide.
Moon Palace Jamaica: Ocho Rios scale
Moon Palace Jamaica sits on Ocho Rios bay — about 20 minutes from the small Ian Fleming airport (OCJ) and roughly 90 from Montego Bay’s international hub — and it brings capacity Jamaica rarely offers. South Beach hosts ceremonies for 400 and receptions up to 950; the ballrooms seat 620; the Starlight Terrace takes an outdoor party to 600. For human-scale weddings there’s the North Gazebo (100 guests) over the water’s edge, the North Deck (120), the Sun Garden, and the intimate South Gazebo (40). Its package ladder undercuts Cancún slightly — Petite at $2,000 and Classic at $3,700 — and its 30-room-night Complimentary rule (above) is the most concrete free-wedding path in the brand. See photos on the Moon Palace Jamaica venues page, and compare the island’s other options in our Jamaica wedding packages guide.
Moon Palace The Grand – Punta Cana
The newest wedding destination in the family, Moon Palace The Grand – Punta Cana, runs the same ladder at Dominican pricing: Simply Heart-to-Heart at $1,150, Petite at $2,672, Classic at $4,198 for 30 guests, and Prestige at $13,800 for 50. The trade-off versus Cancún is a premium of a few hundred dollars per tier; the payoff is Bávaro-area beach and a brand-new build. Venue-by-venue details are thinner in our database for this property, so we scope venues with the resort directly when we quote it — its venues page has current photos. If you’re comparing the wider destination, start with our Punta Cana wedding packages guide.
Mahal packages: Moon Palace for South Asian weddings
For South Asian weddings, the Palace family’s Cancún resorts publish something rare: real multi-event pricing. The Mahal packages in our database — Mahal Ruby at $40,960 for 100 guests, Mahal Sapphire at $60,550 for 200, and Mahal Diamond at $90,190 for 300 — are built for the full arc of a South Asian celebration rather than a single afternoon, at properties with the ballroom capacity and catering depth to run a baraat, sangeet, ceremony, and reception across several days. The searches for “Moon Palace Indian wedding” exist for good reason: few Caribbean resorts can actually execute at this scale. Our roundup of the best resorts for South Asian weddings in Mexico & the Caribbean puts the Palace properties in context, and our planners price the Mahal tiers against your event list for free.
Beyond Moon Palace: the Palace sister resorts
The same package ladder runs across The Palace Company’s smaller resorts, which solve problems the mega-campus can’t. Beach Palace Cancún puts you in the heart of the hotel zone with a Sky Wedding Deck for 100 and, notably, the Mahal South Asian tiers with a 700-capacity ballroom and Palenque Terrace. Playacar Palace offers walkable Playa del Carmen with twin 120-guest beaches and the Cielo Terrace. Cozumel Palace is the island option — gazebo and oceanfront terraces for up to 80, with its own earn-it Complimentary package (a minimum number of paid room-nights within the group is required). All three keep the entry tiers identical — Simply Heart-to-Heart at $1,100, Classic at $4,000 — so choosing between them is about setting, not price.
The fine print couples miss
- Rooms are separate. Every package price above covers the wedding; guests book stays on top, and the group block is both your leverage for rates and your path to the Complimentary package.
- Per-person costs beyond the included count. Each tier includes a set guest count (10 / 30 / 50 / 75); additional guests are quoted per person for your date — ask us to run your exact list before you anchor on a package price.
- Upgrades are the upsell. Premium florals, décor themes, extended photography, and private-event add-ons sit outside the base tiers. Decide them deliberately — they’re where a $4,000 wedding becomes a $9,000 one.
- Prices move. These are 2027 database prices; Palace adjusts rates and promos through the year, so treat this as your comparison baseline and let us confirm live numbers — our help is free either way.
