BEAUTIFUL PICS!!!! Loved your TTD dress.........

So I am thinking of doing the disco instead of the steel drum band... does anyone know if you can provide the DJ with your personal music list or does he just do his own thing?

Just an FYI.. I used weddingwire for my website...

Hey Cam Ive been looking at his Michael Chens website for the last week or so.. How are Michaels prices if you dont mind me asking?

Hey Cam- Ive contacted Digipix multiple times with no response.. While I do not want to spend alot on pictures Im a bit nervous about their reviews and their unresponsiveness. Do you have anyone in mind yet for photography? Carol

Hi Ladies!!! Username: Mrsdeloatch2be Name: Carol Location: Iberostar Rose Hall Suites; Montego Bay, Jamaica Wedding: June 30, 2011 In Jamaica: June 28th- July 5th

I emailed you the information this morning. Good Luck!!!

Hi- Wow.. thats great! be sure to jump on and tell us how everything goes. If you can get rates for 2011.. that would be awesome and info confirming that Tai Flora is the official resort Florist for 2011. Also info on Digipix LTD? Ive been trying to reach them for a month now. My wedding is in June 2011 so any information you can find out would be great. If you can email me any useful info. [email protected] Thanks in avance for anything you find out. Have fun!!! Carol

Thanks Ladies- Its always helpful to know you have somewhere to vent, even if its crazy or makes no sense. At least I know I can come here and you all understand my plight! Until next time...

Hi everyone- I dont know if its just me, but I am so anxious about the "unknowing". I thought by doing a destination wedding I wouldnt be as stressed but I think its the exact opposite. I am a nervous wreck trying to plan this wedding with little to no communications from Nicole. I love this site but we are all contrbuting bits and pieces and I am so nervous about missing something.... I dont know if I feel added pressured because my FI's sister (soon to sis n law and matron of honor) just had her wedding in PR and while it was nice in the long run so many things went wrong. I had to step in an whip it her resorts coordinator into shape. And while it is not a competition the expectation for me to step my wedding up is there because i am a professional event planner..... UGH! Does anyone feel like this or is this my crazy not having control issues stepping in?... LOL!!!

Nikki T. is correct, you will get a lot of useful information from the other thread, but however I can tell that in all of the paperwork it states that for 25+ guests you have to have a "private" reception. Hope this helps. Carol

Thanks I emailed her on Thursday or Friday, but Iam averaging like 5-7 days for a response these days, so I figured I would just put a hit out here to see if i could get any hits...

Hi Ladies- Does anyone have the 2011 pricing information for the Suites yet? I have all of the 2010 info but would like to know how much the 2011 rates are going up....... Thanks

Hi Mittons12- I am getting married at the Suites on June 30, 2011. Have you contacted Nicole at the resort and confirmed your date? Thats the first step. That process took me about 2 weeks and when she finally got back to me there was only a few dates left for June and July. If you want more information inbox me your email address.... Heres to happy planning...........

Hi my fellow Rose Hall Brides.... Someone please tell me... Is it true that the pools at the resorts close at 7:00PM? My family is going to kill me........ If so what is there to do afterwards other than eat and the disco? Is there a casino on the resort? I thought I read that there is one on a review....

Im sorry Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Baltimore,Maryland Â

Yes i saw Lisa reviews also... The "dropping off' part may be the key... I know all of the paperwork and contact info says $100 vendor fee per person... I pretty much think everything is up in the air with how much pushing/negotiating you do once you get there..... I know from a previous trip to Jamaica.. Negotiating was key!!!

How many days is that? These are my rates without airfare (but add approx $400pp for airfare... My guests are mostly coming from PA and MD    IBEROSTAR ROSE HALL SUITES   Arriving 6/29 Arriving 6/29 Arriving 6/28 Length of stay 4 days/3 nights 5 days/4 nights 7days 6/ nights Each Adult / Based on dbl occupancy $ 490.00pp $ 650.00pp $ 970.00pp Kids ages 4-12 sharing w/ 2 adults (Max 2 kids per room) $ 245.00pp $ 325.00pp $ 485.00pp  * All prices includes all food, non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages, taxes & gratuities Payment Schedule 1stDeposit $100 per room must be received by October 15, 2010 (EARLY BOOKING DEADLINE) Refundable if cancelled before February 5, 2011 2ndDeposit $200 per person must be received by February 10, 2011 BALANCE DUE April 18, 2011

So from what I read they are getting better... Has anyone solely used them in 2010? If so what was your experience? Â Im beating myself in the head over these "standard" vendors........
