  1. Pask454 ... so happy you had such a great experience and wedding! Congrats to you and your husband! I am getting so excited! Did you provide a welcome letter or something with tips for your guests?
  2. Also, the DJ is $250 and bartender $250 and gazebo free right? Plus $23 a person for whoever wants drinks correct? And semi private dinner free?
  3. I am also wondering about the DJ ... we are planning on buying a Bose ipod docking station to play our music just in case something happens. What all will the DJ do besides play music. Does he or she have a microphone to hype everyone up or if someone wants to talk? I don't really want to bring cds if I don't have to. I am hoping they have an ipod hookup and speakers. Thanks ladies!
  4. Where did some of you order sparklers and sky lanterns from? And it is ok to bring them in a suitcase and store underneath the airplane? What did some of You put in your out of town bags? I am doing a key bottle opener since that will be my last name (Keese) custom mugs for drinks, koozies, a welcome letter/tips about the resort, etc. I am doing the semi private reception as well or the free dinner type package. Do I need many table decorations or do they provide tea light candles? Is it beautiful the way it is? Thanks ladies!
  5. Hi there! When you finish with the booklet/information you will be giving all your guests cam you please send me a copy? [email protected] that would be awesome! Thanm you!
  6. I am going with the free wedding as well and I was told I didn't have to pay for anything or put a deposit down. I was told I could pay when I got there. I even have an email confirming this and my date. Anyone else agree?
  7. Has anyone shipped things to the resort before they left for their wedding? I think I may have to do this, but I am nervous to in case something gets lost.
  8. Hi ladies! I am looking for a videographer for my wedding. Has anyone used anybody in Jamaica and if you have can you please post the video or the link? And if you have names of videographers and prices that would be awesome! Thank you so much!
  9. Past Brides - how long did it take you to get your marriage certificate in the mail? I have heard of some people getting married in the states before they go and writing in the date they got married on their certificate? I don't know if you can do that or if it is legal...but anyway they did that because they were scared their married wouldn't be legal in the states or they wouldn't get their marriage certificate back in time. I just wanted to know! Thanks! ;-)
  10. Our men our wearing sand color or nice khaki pants and a white button down shirt (t-shirt style) and sandals...not sure they will want to wear a suit jacked but my groom will be wearing a suit jacket! :-)
  11. I booked my wedding February 2012 for June 2013! I wanted the date so bad and I didn't want to have any other date! :-) I bought my dress on April 21, 2012 the day I went to look at them for the first time! My place I ordered mine from in Iowa said it takes about 5 to 7 months and we are at about 4 months so far! My veil came in already! :-) Hope this helps!
  12. Hello! Sorry it has taken me awhile to get back to you! I ordered my dress in April and they said it takes about five to seven months for it to come it! Still waiting! I finally got my veil! It came in after almost 4 months! I would book the steel drum band ahead of time just to be sure. We already did. We just pay when we get there. I think we are doing the free wedding package, but we aren't for sure yet. Anyway, keep in touch! There is so much to think about and plan...all the small details! Anyone know if you can bring sparklers and sky lanterns with you or do you have to have that shipped over before? I figured you could put that all in your bag that goes under the airplane?!
  13. Hello! I am a June 22, 2013 bride at the GBP in Jamaica! I am so excited! :-) We booked the steel drum band for our ceremony (I think they play for an hour) I think they are going to play as I walk down the aisle, when we walk out and afterwards when everyone is enjoying the champagne they provide. We also booked the DJ and the bartender on the beach at the gazebo after dinner. Less than 11 months to go! I can't wait! I emailed the wedding planner a few days ago with a bunch of questions and haven't heard back yet, but maybe she is busy! :-) Happy planning!
  14. I love it! It looks great! Thank you for the website! Can't wait to order!
  15. Where did you find your OOT bags and fingerprint tree? Thanks for the great information!
  16. How many songs do you need for your wedding? Just burn them on a cd and give it to the dj? We are hiring the steel drum band to play as well. Will we need music on a cd if we are having the steel drum band play? We aren't doing a private dinner so can we bring stuff to put on the tables? What do you brides recommend for a guest book? Any recommended websites? My wedding isn't until June 22, 2013 so I have a little over a year, but I just want to be prepared! Any suggestions or websites on what to do for out of town bags? Or should I skip out of town bags? I found someone on etsy who would make custom mugs for the pool for all my guests for around $150. Thanks ladies!
  17. Thanks so much! I'm excited to do these at my wedding too! I think the guests will really like it!
  18. Where did you order your sky lanterns from? :-) I want to do these as well!
  19. My wedding is at 3 too and she didn't say anything about that. She told me I didn't have to pay a deposit for the free wedding package either. That's weird!
  20. Angela, beautiful pic! I'd love to see more! If you have facebook, add me - Amanda Emerson Thank you! :-)
  21. I think the brides that have their date booked before August of 2012 should NOT have to pay this fee. My friend who is our photographer thinks it is ridiculous and doesn't think we will have to pay as she is a friend and paying guest. They are making so much money off of everyone staying at the resort as well as whatever the bride and groom choose for their wedding/night.
