  1. So my travel agent just got in contact with contact from Royalton named Cindy. I have most current pricing for everything and have attached the pdf files.

     

    We are pretty sure we are going ahead with this resort. Most resorts are charging roughly the same. Although centerpieces seem like a lot at $250 US, that's roughly what my sister spent getting married in Canada. Basically, you'll probably end up paying the same for a low key wedding at home but it'll be in Jamaica so its that much better!

     

    We are thinking of booking October 11th and having our ceremony at the Beach Gazebo for 3 pm (no one better steal that day! lol).

     

    Then private reception at 7 pm poolside.

    We will likely be using an external photographer and videographer. I know there is a $450 outside vendor fee, but is that a one time fee or per outside vendor?

    Also, we are looking at the private dinner menu. I'm assuming each guest gets to choose their entree? And we just pay depending on what entree they choose? I'm taking the advice of many on here and likely using my "free semi-private dinner" included the Free Package as a rehearsal dinner and then paying the additional $300 plus bar plus food per person for a private reception. I'll likely use their DJ.

     

    My agent is pretty awesome and gets my answers fairly quickly so I can keep you guys updated!

     

    Just a heads up. We were thinking our budget for this wedding would like be $15,000 Canadian for 50 guests. We are likely look at more of $30,000 after the stupid conversion and all the extra stuff. But hey, you only get married once! (That's what my mindset is anyway!)

  2. I just got back from our wedding and thought I would let you all know it was absolutely amazing!! We went with the photographer on site - true colours and could not have been happier they did an amazing job!!! We ended up doing the Jamaican experience on the beach and loved it!! If anyone is planning a beach reception - you don't need any extra lights (we got them and it wasn't worth it) also the wedding planners were absolutely amazing!!! The spa did an amazing job on everyone's hair and makeup!!!!

    One more thing - make sure to tell your guests that check in is a joke!!!

    They have one person at the front checking in the entire group as the rest stand around and chat!! And they screwed up everyone's room!! So be prepared

    Other then the front desk staff - everyone else was amazing!!

    What exactly was the food in the Jamaican package?
