Just a thought.

Hi Tammy, how exactly does that work? Do you get the discounts that I will be getting from the destinationwedding specialists with the resort? I am so new to all this, that was the frist place i went to, but Im not sure if I should be doing something different....Do you help with setting up my website for the guests where they are able to get more info, and I am able to see what guests have booked when the time comes? As well as a save the date card with info. Destination Weddings has a whole system where it makes it so much easier for my guests and convenient for me as well. Not sure how all this works

destinationweddings.com does not have rates that are unavailable to other agents. they are just travel agents that use alot of the same suppliers that i use. In fact, alot of times i can get lower rates.

also, i think it is important to have someone knowledgeable who is responsive to your questionsm etc. Something that i heard they are not so great about. i think they have alot of great agents but also alot of agents with little or no destination wedding experience....or at least this is what i have heard from brides that were using them but decided against it.

regarding the STD's, website etc. anyone can do it and most brides prefer to do it themselves and do it better and more customized. alot of brides like to customize their STDs...make STDs magnets, or picture frames.. and make their own websites that have more functionality. you can get those websites anywhere (even for free) so they really aren't offering anything great.

not to be critical but you have asked alot of questions that they should be answering for you and i am not sure why they have not yet. i would put more weight on the information they give you and less on the fluff they offer as a consolation.

my 2 cents.

sorry if i am short, husband is rushing me out to costco

DW was just not responsive and the girl didn't know the sites! I thinking booking the site will be the hardest part (which I know I couldn't do on my own). What I actually need the most was a little TLC to know I'm not in this alone! Tammy has been nothing but awsome!! Every time I wine she is there!! Anyway, I gonna make my FI set up the site. If people really want to come, they will come. I'm not going to hound people into getting their sh_t together. I think my FI is finally going to help me download picts tonight. I a little jealous of everone's picts

I agree they even had no idea what the Grand Palladium was I just didnt feel comfortable. And yes, tammy is completely responsive and helpful...

I agree, just from this forum I can see that Tammy has TONNES of clients, and yet, every day, she responds to my worries and requests, even on the weekend! Thank you Tammy!!!

 

I am thinking of Grand Palladium, Gran Bahia, or Riu Palace, it will come down to how expensive it is for guests... Any thoughts you guys have, would love to hear!
