Sandos Playacar Brides!

just to clarify, you can pick everything while you're there...but you'll be picking from what she's offering. if you want something specific, bring a picture of it. she has a book full of decorations, flowers, etc. but if you want anything specific, its better to bring an actual picture vs. description. for example, I brought pictures of my inspiration bouquet, grooms flower, the wedding cake, how I wanted the guestbook table to be set-up; a picture of a hair flower; and the pictures of past Sandos weddings which mocked the exact decoration which I was looking for; and its an added bonus if you have some type of fabric with you that shows your actual colors; we had out passport invitation so she was able to see the actual hues of pink and blue that we were after...hope that helps.

Thanks a bunch for posting those...that helps alot!

:-)

Thank you, thank you, thank you Kiuana for posting that very useful info! I'm taking notes on your do's and dont's!

 

I'm glad it all worked out for you...you looked so pretty!!!!

No problem. I know I will be doing my research soon as well.

No problem. Don't hesitate to contact me any more questions...big or small. this forum helped me out so much! I'm glad to return the favor.

Hey Everyone!

 

I can't believe my wedding is in 81 days!!!!!! Am I the next one, on this forum? Or is anyone in January?

 

I'm beginning to get quite frustrated with Paola because I've emailed her all of my answers to the questions that we will discuss 'in our appointment' and she's emailed me all of those questions again! Based on what Kuyana said, I'm not even going to worry about getting her all that info, since she apparently won't have it when we get there anyways!

 

As far as room upgrades go, we really want to have a special room during our stay since it's our wedding but it sucks they can't guarantee that especially since we are bringing 34 people to their resort! Throw me a bone! LOL. We are going during peak season which is why i was hoping to secure that ahead of time. Kuyana, did you guys get an upgrade? If not, how was your room?

 

Sorry to be negative! I really needed to vent to someone who understands! Any feedback or suggestions would be welcome!

 

Thanks!

Hi All,

I am a newbie here, getting married at Sandos Playacar on October 23 2010. I have a couple of guests that have a timeshare and probably wont be staying at the resort with us. Does anybody know if there is any way of getting around the day passes for guests that arent staying at the resort.

 

Thanks

Welcome and Congratulations!

I don't know of any way you could possibly get around that or I haven't heard of any way, at least. Usually with all inclusives you have to wear a wrist band so if you don't have one and they see that, I'm not sure how that would go down. You even need to get a day pass for your photographer if you are not using the resorts.

I will scope it out for you when I'm there for my wedding in Feb.

All the best,

Jennifer

22 Days till the wedding and 19 Days until we leave!!!!!

OMG...Jilligirl, that's sooo exciting! Can't wait to hear all about it!

 

I'm about a month behind you!

 

Woot, woot!
