So I did ask my WC, we are taking our originals with us, all we had to do is scan in our birth certificates (long forms), passports, and the divorce certificate...and sent that info via email. Mine doesn't even have a father listed, and apparently that is OK...

My wedding party is small, and we are going to Coral Cove end January. They have plans to build a pool, but are trying to pick the perfect spot, but hey, the water is as warm as bath water. I like the non-commericalized aspect, and more exposure to the culture I will get from this resort. From speaking with other brides, they are willing to just about jump through hoops to get you what you wish, as they are not a big resort (technically a B&. It has about 15 rooms, the newest addition being the night Jasmine cottage...they have a facebook page with some wonderful pictures... We booked separately, our flights thru Air Canada (4 return flights, mine, hubbys, my daughters, and my mothers) and everything included it cost us about 2800.00 for all 4. The resort, hubby and I are staying two weeks, my daughter one, and my mom 4 days, including the wedding bliss package, extra flowers, extra decorations, a special cake (they offer rum cake...lol...not a fav for my family) a special diet for my diabetic mom, non-alco champange...was roughly 6K USD. I'm paying for my moms stay... My other guests (3) just had to contact the resort via email to reserve their room and put down a deposit. What I like about Coral cove is that they will allow you to pay by cheque, money order or cash, and give you a 3% discount if you do. I opened up a USD account, and have mailed them cheques via registered mail. Saves on Credit card fees!! I do know of a couple of brides who did book with a TA...

My resort hasn't asked for any of our docs to be notarized...we had to scan in copies and send them electronically, then we bring the originals with us. The website for the Jamaican consulate also did not indicate that the birth certificates, ect, had to be notarized...is this something for the bigger resorts??? Mayhap I will ask my WC...

I'm so excited about a destination wedding! The headache off planning and such, I think everyone should do this!! User ID: nymcyzk Couple: Laura and Matt Date: 31 Jan 2011 Where: Coral Cove Resort, Little Bay Jamaica In Jamaica 26 Jan - 9 Feb...

Hubby and I are going to Coral Cove Resort, in Little Bay, Jamaica. I found this little gem online, went through every review on trip advisor, and it fits in perfectly for what we want. They have a really great facebook page too. Small, not overly commericalized, with more exposure to the culture of Jamaica, vs a beach with hundreds of white lawn chairs lined up...lol, not my gig, but doesn't mean its not great for others (my sister is going down for the wedding, but then moving on to one of the more bigger resorts in Negril.) It will depend on what you want as a couple too, and whether you are bringing a lot of family and friends with you, or if you just want it for the two of you... Congratulations!

31 Jan for me...Coral Cove Resort in Jamaica...little upscale B&B in Little Bay...
