Weather? Wedding In October?
Soon2bmzbrooks replied to kdepass2's topic in Destination Weddings in Jamaica
KG1990 I've tried to download some pics but I need to take the time to download them again. I thought it was successful, but it wasn't. I'd even love to download the video Secrets created. I'm working on it. -
I've been trying to get some pics on here from my 10/2 Secrets Wild orchid wedding. For those who are curious about the quality of photography that's included in their packages, this is what you are working with. I am pretty satisfied. They took 451 photos and pretty much captured each moment from the ceremony, cocktail hour and the reception. Let me know if you have any questions.

Are you getting the ultimate wedding package that comes with the band? That's what I did and they were great. However, I think the dj is well worth it. And for your decorations, I brought some of my own decorations for the table just to add some color and they didn't charge me for putting them out. I asked if I could have my family do it for me and they agreed to do it for me for nothing. And they were creative in making it work.

Weather? Wedding In October?
Soon2bmzbrooks replied to kdepass2's topic in Destination Weddings in Jamaica
I was just married in Jamaica on 10/2/15 and was scared of the same. Let me just say that out of the whole week we were there the morning of my wedding was the only morning that it was pouring down raining. However as the day went along it began to clear up. So yes like you've heard, I believe they if and when it rains for the most part it just passes through and clears up. Don't worry, your October wedding in Jamaica will be just fine. -
I was married on 10/2/2015 at Secrets Montego Bay. I'd like to provide comments and/or answer any questions for all you anxious Montego Bay Brides to be. First of all the wedding coordinators at Wild Orchid at very good at what they do. My wedding turned out to be better than I imagined and/or planned. So I had planned to have my ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception outside on the beach using the Beach Casita area. On the morning of my wedding it rained like crazy!!! At that point I had prayed more than I could, worried more than I should and I figured there was nothing else left to d

Whew!! I'm glad it's just not me. When I call them, I get the impression that my event is not important. They don't sound understanding at all. This is very frustrating. I can't wait to see your pics. Im on the computer at work right now, and for some reason I'm not able to view your pics. But thank you again for your viewpoints.

Thankk you @@cora4600 your reviews/tips and these posts were SOOOOO useful. i'm getting married there 10/2. Your answers really helped me.

Because I have been lately regretting choosing this resort. Thanks so much. Ladies lets try to keep this thread going? For some reason There's not alot out here on SECRETS Montego Bay

Any Jamaica Brides Please Read

I think that's a great idea. I will be there Sept 29th preparing for my wedding and would love donations!!!...Enjoy and Congrats!! -
Ok.so I just found out the SWO's only solution to the issue is that they want "ME" to pay for a tent just in case there is inclement weather. Because they have a huge event that was booked over a year ago where this company wants all of the indoor ballrooms. So initially I only reserved the outdoor venue for 10 people, but was told that I can ALWAYS upgrade. So now that I have been trying to upgrade for 25 people, SWO is telling me that theydon't have a back up venue (indoor) in case of inclement weather. I think this is unfair. I was asked to rent a tent in case it rains, at my expense or I c

I'm looking to hire a DJ for my wedding and reception in Montego Bay. I'm thinking that outside DJs might save me some money. Help please. Any recommendations or suggestions??

They seem to have booked another big event and they want to use all the ballrooms. THey are meeting with them this weekend to see exactly what's needed. So it's only if there is some type of inclement weather, there are going to be issues. We are scheduled to talk this week... But as I mentioned before I'm trying not to panick and get upset. -

Hi SWO Brides. I'm getting married in SWO Oct 02, 2015. I'm getting nervous. I'm working on welcome bags and favors. SWO WC has some issues and might not have a back up plan for inclement weather. I should be hearing from them in a few days!!! Im trying not to panick!!!! Plus I wanted to hire an outside DJ, if it's cheaper!!! Do you all have any suggestions or recommendations? -
Outstanding Review. Very well done. Everything was useful. I'm getting married there in October. Now I'm reconsidering my decision on just using their speaker and would like to get their DJ. According to the website the price for the DJ is like 250 an hour and you have to get at least 3 hours. Is that right???
