( i thought that was what she was for..?) Anyways, so I called the number and they told me to have my TA call in... so by this time I was pizzed off.. so I sent a nice, but firm email to my TA.. letting her know what's going on... that i'm already getting a run-around and shouldnt be.. cuz we spent a crapload of money for this trip.
Next day my TA emailed me and let me know that we are booked for Nov. 18th (2 days after we arrive) and I got the 4pm spot.. which is what I wanted.
Whew!!
It is just the two of us going down.. eloping!! So we don't need any upgrades. We are getting the butler service, so that is plenty! I looked at their fancy floral packages, dinners etc. Which look lovely but totally expensive. $180 for a dozen roses?? wow. I'm bringing my own flowers down. How about you??
What are you sending for documentation? I have to get both or our birth certificates ($25.00 each) or its a cert. copy or something .. then get it notarized I guess. Does this sound right??
Hey hun,
I'm so happy you got your stuff sorted out, dont take shit from any of those TA's make sure you get what you want and in a timely fashion !!!! If there not doing what you want Dump them... Thats what I did....
I also looked at there Preston Bailey pakages and i found them quite $$$$, so we decied to take our flowers down... We found a real cheap florist and she's making my boquet out of floramatique flowers... It only costed me like $90.... It works out cheap for us becuase my BMs are not carring flowers but silk fans instead....
I had to cancel my TA, she was real dummy... all she cared about was her cut of the pie... i wanted to her a few times... So we just booked everything thru sandals direclty, its eaiser that way and theres no miss communcation.. We sent or documentation in about 1 mth ago. We got a invoice saying that our notarized birth certificates were fine and we didint need to send them anything else...
I called Sandals Negril yesterday and they told me that the sunset twilight package has been discontinted... I thank god we booked it back in June 2007.
I'm still kinda pissed because Sandals does not offer a welcome rep or anything, it kinda sucks because i would have loved to have a dinner the night we get there with all our guest....
