Hello
Fellow "SENSATORIANS"!
Just looking for some feedback , I feel like I'm drowning here trying to plan our big day. It is May 3 2015.
I just started to email back and forth with the WC in Miami, back in May. I just want to see if anyone else is experiencing this with their coordinators, I get that its a massive call center because of the multiple properties that Karisma has, but with my first coordinator, I got very little help. I had no idea what I was supposed to do to get the ball rolling, she didn't explain how anything worked, I asked her some questions and she would give me one sentence answers, than I get an email from another girl who was extremely helpful! I even got the chance to talk to her on the phone and explain to her what kind of "feeling" we were going for, we locked in our menu which I was super pumped on (Taco Bar!) then out of the blue I get a reply from the last email I sent to her.... from a different coordinator. Now since I want to have our reception for more than two hours she's pushing a private dinner event on me. Telling me I have to pick a different menu and so on. The feeling my fiancé and I are going for is really laid back, come and go as you please dance the night away, nothing formal, wedding! We are both really calm laid back people and if I wanted a really formal wedding I'd be getting married at home, that's how I look at it anyways. Our booked guest list is on the large side (80 people so far!) and their private dinner menus are nothing less than 40 dollars a plate. I understand that it takes more people to cook and set up etc. but combined cost for all of us is 150,000$ approx. We're spending a lot of money to be there. For lack of sounding demanding, shouldn't my wish be their command. I just feel like Im getting pushed around a bit. and never really getting a straight answer
I haven't even begun to look into decorations etc.
I just need some encouragement. anything will help
@@kmk2016 Sorry I should have been more specific! I was a littl flustered when I initially wrote that post . I did Lock in a location for our reception (the zavas plaza ) and when I locked in that location I also locked in the menu ( standing cocktail , 3 different kinds of tacos , and 2 different appys) she than informed me because of the type of menu I picked I only get the location for 2 hours , so when I asked if I could have it for 4 hours I was told I had to pick a different menu cause I don't want my guests standing for 4 hours . Which I understand that , I would ask for possibly a few tables and chairs set up . I don't know maybe I've just got to change my expectations . Doing the standing cocktail and moving on to the disco wouldn't be such a bad idea ! Thanks for the feedback
