  1. @@sarahjayne07 if you want to do your rehearsal on the sky deck you can schedule that with your on site coordinator when you get there. Ask the onsite coordinator now about it tho and she might be able to give you an idea of when availability will most likely be
  2. Charger plates do not come with standard tables that's extra. Katy decor has chargers to rent for $2-$3 a piece that are really good.
  3. It's $25 for the 16 course with no wine pairings and $125 for the 26 or so course with wine pairings. Here is the website www.lechique.com. This will only show the more expensive option but will give you more details. Now keep in mind that the price is more of a credit. For example if you choose the $25/person option and two people go there is a $50 that is automatically added to the bill and that goes to any wine bottle or glass of wine purchased. So if you get a $60 bottle of wine it's just an additional $10. So for $60 you would get a 16 course meal for each person plus a bottle of wine valued at $60 and only pay $60 and tip if you want. It's totally worth it if you want to pay the extra. The experience for both options are way underpriced and worth way more.
  4. There was a general cold going around when I was down there for my wedding and I ended up getting it as well. I probably will go back. Also the you are going to from very air conditioned building to humid weather and vice versa which can cause you to get sick as well. Especially going into an air conditioned room covered in sweat.
  5. @@jmp403 the four hours is plenty of time but that idea sounds awesome! It can be the after party[emoji6] very creative Can't remember who was asking about adding the late guest addition but that happened to us. We had a friend say he could go 3 or so weeks before. He stayed with two guys that had already booked a room so there ended up being three and the late addition paid the same as the other two guys. Since the room block is done by number of rooms and not people there was no problem at all.
  6. Both are equally as classy. It depends on what you want for your guests and what you think they will like. We did plated and they were very accommodating. For example: one of my guest wanted the surf and turf but had a shellfish allergy so they just subbed a salmon in lieu of the lobster tail and I'm a pescatarian so they just subbed the filet out for another lobster tail. We asked ahead of time for our guest that has the shellfish allergy and was told they would accommodate. Thankfully advised by brides that married before me told me to bring food counts in case onsite they did not get the info. The onsite coordinator had not received the information but I had the counts handy and they easily accommodated. With my food request for myself I was just going to give my filet to the hubby and he would give me his lobster tail but the onsite coordinators said they would just give me an additional lobster tail instead of the filet. Very accommodating down there.
  7. @@amyzig2 I would ask why they want copies even if it takes them a bit to get back to you just because passports have sensitive information.
  8. I think I bought four and no need to cut them. The resort will do everything for you so you just bring the fabric and show them a pic of what you want
  9. @@Berg999 I used www.tableclothsfactory.com Selected fabric bolts and used a fabric bolt that was 54" X 10" Here is the exact product I used http://www.tableclothsfactory.com/wholesale-fabric-bolts-embroider-leafs-54x10yards-s/184.htm
  10. @@sarahjayne07 yes you can setup an welcome party with apps and drinks in any of their available locations. The cocktail options should be in the food packet you are choosing for your reception. Also you an find it under the food section http://www.weddingsbylomastravel.com/planning
  11. @amyzig 1: no chair covers could be nice and cool just depends on the look you are going for. 2: if they are giving you a free happy hour go for it. I had one and they said select drinks and food and everyone loved it. It means they pick out the beverages and have passed apps. 3: babysitting services are just as safe as they are in the states. My husbands brother and wife had s one year old and they left them with the babysitter all the time.
  12. That's awesome you all are being switched over to the onsite coordinators. I always got the most info from them plus it's way more helpful to work with someone that is actually there.
  13. $25/pp is what I had in my contract but just what @@snswedding2016 said if you have it in writing you can fight for it
  14. Oh good idea @@calgarybride2015 thanks for mentioning didn't even think about it. Btw I think you were asking about Belize, right? Let me know if you have any questions after reading my review on it
  15. Oic, I really don't think they will cancel either. I feel like they say that as a scare factor.
  16. Azul has the premium which is a timeshare. I know they work with RCI and other larger timeshares. I looked at marina el cid and the flight/hotel packages cost the same as sensatori. I just went onto the el cid site and tried booking the flight/hotel and it cost the same as the flight/hotel travel package on sensatoris website. I don't think they are really saving money going that way. Maybe throw those options their way? If they haven't already booked. Regardless I doubt karisma is really sticklers on the 80% rule. There were many things in my contract that said had to be done by certain times and I was always able to stretch deadlines. Let me know what happens.
  17. Do your guest know they will have to pay to come on the resort besides the wedding, but only an hour before. Where on earth are they booking? Everywhere else is higher than sensatori. Are they booking at all inclusive a? If not after food and drinks they will probably be paying more. We had to remind our guest it was all inclusive and which meant everything was included. Our guest thought "well only certain thing". They didn't realize that every meal, every drink, everything 24/7 was included. I would be curious to know since nothing I saw was cheaper than sensatori. @@jmp403 We had symbolic and hired the female violinist for the ceremony from lomas travel. You can rent the speakers and create a playlist on your phone and play it through the speakers. Adapters are included. Go to www.weddingsbylomastravel.com/planning and click on entertainment. You will see all the music options. @@LRosario another thing those guest will have to pay for is a taxi, which runs $45 each way. That's $90 plus tip.
