That's wonderful. I'm so excited to get stared with the specific planning process. Just wondering how the resort was for a large age group I have 6 year olds to 70 year olds coming..

Its not bad at all actually.  We too, had a wide range of ages (babies to 85 years old.  There is lots to do and the resort is massive!

Hi. Just curious about one thing. lol How was the resort food? Not necessarily the wedding food because usually they work a bit harder on that , but I mean the resort food in general?

 

thanks!!

Hey! Yes you're right, the wedding food was awesome!! We went with the Caribbean buffet and ppl LOVED it! You need to be over 40 people for the beach dinner

As for the resort food...It was pretty good.  Breakfast was the usual like most resorts, and I had no issues with it.  We only had 1 person complain about the food, and to be honest, she complains about everything lol.  I went to the Italian, Steakhouse, Japanese and International a la cartes and had no issues.  There are so many courses to choose from that you are bound to find something.  The food isn't comparable to say Secrets or The royal, but overall our guests (60 ppl) were happy with the food.

Hi.

I am new to all of this but I will be having a July 2015 wedding. My TA has sent me some information about this resort but I was wondering if anyone else had more. Are there specific locations to say your vows, restaurants and can you pick your own bouquet, flowers etc.?

Sorry for all the questions I'm just feeling a little lost.Thanks

Hi!

There are 2 locations for your ceremony (and I think a 3rd that you have to pay extra for).  I would recommend the sunset gazebo, it is much more private.  You can have your reception (semi private) in a restaurant if you have 40 people or less, otherwise you have to choose something else.  You get to pick all of your flowers and pretty much everything you want for your day.  Hope that helps

Hi Ladies,

I just had my wedding at the GSP in April 2014.   Ours was held at the Sunset gazebo (loved it)!!!, and we had a full beach dinner and reception.  Our wedding coordinator was Jackie and she was amazing.  Of course it is always hard emailing back and forth as you don't really know what to expect when you arrive, BUT it was so stress free.  We met with her the next day and she had everything organized by the minute and we were able to add all the little touches that we wanted.  We choose the light up dance floor.  If it is in your budget, it is worth it!! We had endless compliments on it, and at one point during our reception, the entire boardwalk was full of other hotel guests from a distance watching our party.  It was pretty neat! No, we didn't have any wedding crashers lol.  We do have a video of the ceremony if anyone ever wants to know what it looks like at the sunset gazebo.  It is on youtube under "Clark and Lanoue ceremony". We hired an outside photographer....Photos in Cancun they were called, also awesome!

Good luck to you all and if anyone ever has any questions, please feel free to ask I know how hard it is to plan a wedding from so far away, and sometimes, even the littlest things help!
