Thanks so much for replying. The wedding is booked!!! Unfortunately I'm pretty sure I can't use outside vendors without paying extortionate fees at the Sensatori. Luckily my travel agent managed to get me the list of prices for the added extras so I know what I'm in for! But thank you for sharing your costs, it gives me something to compare with :-)

Hi there fellow brides, I'm hopefully about to book this resort for my August 2015 wedding. As the resort is not fully open yet, and as far as I am aware has not currently had any weddings, I am struggling to get info on the cost of things that fall outside of the wedding package. I would be really grateful if there are any brides out there who have booked their wedding for this year who wouldn't mind sharing some info with me. In particular approximate costs for reception, 'approved' photographers, flowers, ceremony decoration. My travel agent is being very vague and I'd hate to book and then find out that the cost of the wedding is out of our price range. With Karismas policy of imposing an $800 outside vendor fee you are pretty much held hostage by their prices. Thank you in advance for your help!

Thanks guys for replying. You have helped put me at ease. I will almost certainly book this resort. I'm from the UK and my travel agent can't book for next summer til the end of April. Longest 3 months of my life!

Hi tritter1. I'm so glad I found this thread. I'm hoping you log in some time soon and see this. I am really hoping to get married at the Sensatori Resort Jamaica in August 2015. I really love the look of the resort but I must admit it makes me apprehensive to book before the resort is fully open and before there have been any other weddings held there. Can I ask what your experience has been so far with the WCs at the resort? Have you been able to get cost information for the reception etc? Any help, advice or info you have received from the resort that you can give me would be very much appreciated! Thanks
