SUNBRIDE: First off...this new thread is absolutely amazing! You need to go into business seriously!!! I would be willing to pay a fee for access to your DT guide that you created for your friends and family if you are interested...it looks amazing!!! Here is my info for my upcoming 2009 wedding at DT..please add my info to the list of future brides: Username: Lonna14 Names: Lonna & Matthew Date & Time: June 20, 2009 @ 6:00 p.m. Number of guests: 50 Coordinator: Landy Ceremony location: Beach Reception location: Seaside Grill (if occupancy number is less than 70%) or, cocktail hour on pation and reception in ballroom. Photographer: Resort Special arrangements/activities: dancefloor/d.j. Sunbride, some quick questions for all: If anyone has booked and or stayed in the honeymoon suite for 7 days and 7 nites and received the "free" wedding package, but yet wanted all of the things included in the ultimate package...how did they expect you to pay for that? Itemized everything that wasn't in the free package, or give you the cashback towards your larger balance? Also, when adding additional guests past 20, please correct me if I am wrong: I will pay for each individuals..dinner $65, cocktails for the cocktail hour $12, cake price, champagne toast price, and hordervs price for a grand total per extra person?? Last question....in the package it says that food and beverage is included in the price for gold and silver menu..does this include alcoholic beverages..I assumed so, but want to double check If anyone could answer these questions, it would be greatly appreciated. I am in the process of sorting all of this out with Landy, but would like to have some back up support as well. Thanks so much Lonna

Hello Ladies! I have my official date at DT..June 20, 2009, at 6 p.m!! So excited!!!! I am wondering about the quality of the dj and or sound system...this is very important to me to have a clear, farily loud sound system. Can anyone give me any insight or suggesitons as to what to rent and or use? We are planning on the seaside grill, but if the occupancy is too high then we will be using the ballroom. Please let me know your thoughts when you get a chance! Thanks Lonna

Ladies! I need all of your help! I just recently joined the forum after reading all of your ideas and past wedding experiences at DT (see, I already know the lingo!) and I am currently in the process of planning our wedding for June 2009 with Sandra. E-mails are coming in slowly but surely. Main questions: New policy is 2 weddings per day: what if u and the other party want the same location? do you have to fite it out or choose an alternate day? Where can we dance at for the reception? So confused with this. Can I have dancing on the beach/outdoors area with the new policy on renting out restaurants? According to the guide no, but after reading all of these reviews, it seems like it can be incorporated some how into the reception in these other locations.. Basically, I need to have 2 game plans for the reception: one for the restaurant if that goes through (one month notice thingy), and a back up plan in case the restaurant doesn't go through. What do you all suggest?? Would we be losing the beach ambiance of the whole thing if we did beach wedding, cocktails on pool terrace and reception in ballroom? I'm thinking some of the guests will not appreciate the heat. Thoughts? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can't wait to hear all of your ideas and experiences at DT!!!!!!! Have a good day! Lonna
