Hi Maroon13, I just got back from my wedding at the Royal - AMAZING! - I had it in the gazebo which was perfect. The beach is NOT at all private, it's really windy (most days) You will have a lot of people walking through at all times. I had a few people walk through before and after the ceremony. one harry guy in a speedo which was gross People stayed away for the most part during the ceremony. But the gazebo has a beautiful walkway, gorgeous scenary, the beach is behind it and the wind is blocked more than on the beach. Hands down - Gazebo. Be sure to have a rehearsal, ask your wedding coordinator to be there and ensure she blocks off sections of the walkway. before, during and after. have fun and be sure to relax Steph

Hi Roza, I had a similiar issue when I was figuring out my timeline. In the end I have: 4:00-4:30 ceremony (your right they won't extend this without paying more money) 4:30- 5:00 BREAK - I didn't have to pay extra for this. I escalated this to a manager and eventually they agreed. 5:00 - 6:00 Cocktail Hour 6:00-9:00 Reception 9:00-10:00 Extra hour - which i'm paying for. I haven't worked with the onsite wedding coordinator yet as my wedding is in January. I too feel that they are penny pinching me. Good luck! let me know how the onsite wedding coordinator is. Steph
