    COngratulations and welcome to the site.I got married in JAmaica too in JAnuary. YOu will get a lot of information here and everyone is so helpful. I'm sure you ll have a fantastic wedding.
  5. Congratulations. I wont be there unfortunately but im sure youll find a lot of people who wil be. Let us know about your experience, we are thinking of going there for our first year anniversary
  6. We stayed a week at Couples tower isles for our honeymoon in january and went to couples sans souci a couple of times while we were there. Met a few people who got married there. Most people were actual couples but there were different age groups and those that were not couples did not look left out at all. There is not much a a beach at tower isles but there is quite a lot to do .The weddings I saw there were pretty small but the brides looked happy even with bad weather. I saw a wedding at sans souci- very nice but a lot of steps and hideaway coves everywhere. More romantic and non couples may feel left out. I agree that you should go to their website. They have a pretty sizeable forum for their guests so you should get a lot of answers there.
  7. Beautiful pictures. Did you do the lovers leap and all the other fun parts of dunns river falls?
  8. You should definitely get some professional pictures and video if you can because you wont remember a lot of things, and looking at them afterwards will help you relive the occasion.
  9. WOnderful review!! You put me to shame ;-) Beautiful beautiful pictures, makes me remember the fun times at my wedding! I even recognise some of the staff in the pictures and you were definitely right about the coordinators and DJ Bryan. Sounds like we both had a good time and maybe worried a bit too much beforehand......
  10. I arrived at my resort on sunday night and wedding was on wednesday. I met with the coordinators for about 3 hrs total. I think they do this all the time and know how to make things happen quickly. Good luck.
  11. Thanks Guys. We're still adding and sorting out pictures that other friends took. We are waiting for your review Futuremrsgoodrich.... Did you have a reception, and what did the cocktail food taselike. Didnt have any :-(
  12. I guess I'm stressed all the time. It wouldnt be too far from the truth though.
  13. Congrats on your engagement . You will find plenty of info here.
  14. How do you get to see the finishing touches catalog. Is it on the website?
  15. Congratulations on your engagement.
  16. Wedding looked wonderful, and what a fabulous review!. Congratulations of your wedding and you made a beautiful bride.
  17. I am not as organised as you guys ( actually I am afraid to see what I really spent...) but it was less than $20,000 ( around $18,500) . This comprised everything including the flight and the rooms and flying the photographer in, and the honeymoon ( stayed total of 2 weeks in JA).
  18. I got both wedding and travel insurance. Both would cover all the things that could go wrong at the wedding including illness, weather. It was great for my piece of mind I can tell you.
  19. IF you book the 10 rooms with one Travel agent ar through the resort. then it should qualify you for the rehearsal dinner and the free one hourr cocktail. My guests were not at one resort though they were all beaches and sandals resorts so they all qualified.
  20. What I would do again: 1.Have the wedding in Jamaica 2.Have the wedding at Beaches Negril - amazing wedding coordinators and beautiful beaches and rooms. 3.Use wedding paper divas for my stationery- very efficient and beautiful 4.Print everything( including what we and the officiant said ) in the program as people said it was easier to follow, and they kept the programs to take home as a souvenir from the wedding. 5.Bring my photographer from MN- followed us for 4 days. Got loads of pix. 6.Use a videographer- got a lot of footage which I was not even aware of. 7. 3 hour reception dinner-people wanted to stay longer. T8. Take TTD photographs the day after.I was so much more relaxed. 9. Stay one extra week at another resort for our honeymoon- we really needed the rest . 10. Have an indoor reception- it was much cooler, could make as much noise as we wanted to, and could stay a lot later than if we had had it outside. What I would not do again: 1.Trust that destination weddings.com would get me all sorted out. Had a few disappointments with them. and had to figure out some things for myself. 2.Plan my wedding in 6 months- too stressful 3.Not take my laptop with the pix of my flowers , cake etc to the resort. I forgot it and had to describe things to them so my bouquet was yellow when it should have been orange.... 4.Not take my wedding checklist to the resort- could not remember some things, and who have carried what in their luggage 5.Not Arrive at the resort 2 days before the wedding. I needed an extra day. 6. Worry about everyone- Didnt get much sleep . 7. Schedule my hair and make up at least 4 hrs before the ceremony- I had only 35 mins left afterwards. 8. Have the wedding in the peak season - first week fo the year- expensive, and the resort booked up really quickly so people had to stay at a sister resort. All in all though, it was great.
  21. IS it a maggie Soterro dress called Grace? My friend wore this dress with a corset and it looked good but she is a lot bigger than you and needed it to show her figure better. so I dont think that you need it.It looks just fine and shows your figure already.
