Wendy, any chance you have access to rooms at The Royal for the weekend of April 20-21st??? The Hotel is sold out and recommended that I seek the help of a TA.... yikes!!!

Hi, Ladies:

 

I've had some trouble getting a list of all the decor options from my WC, who keeps saying she is not getting a response from their supplier (I think it's Planner 1 Events)?  Has anyone seen a list of options that Planner 1 Events has (i.e. candles, table runners, chairs, flowers, furniture, etc.)?

 

Thanks!

Jenn

Who's your coordinator? Mine is Ana, if she's not yours maybe I can see if she can get access to it?

 

Let me know.

Thank you for asking me! I am on it and we have the rooms blocked over at the Gran Porto for you.. I will be glad to see if there is any further I can do with the Royal, however it does sound like they are truly full for the moment at least... it would be quite a gamble to wait and see if rooms come available later, your guests need to be able to make their plans and holding off in the hopes that rooms might open up would be stressful for all to say the least.

As least we now have a good back up plan for you with the rooms at the Gran Porto.. 

It would be my recommendation to others who might be booking for busy times that it is much better to hold the rooms with a group contract and then be able to release un needed rooms than to be in the bad position of trying to get rooms when a resort is showing full.

Regards,

TA Wendy

jessica - I was just searching on the Royal's website, and they have availability in the garden room for Fri 4/20, though not Sat 4/21. they do have beachfront walk-out rooms for the entire weekend. not sure if that's in anyone's budget, but wanted to let you know the availability is moving around.

 

also, if your guests book one of the highest room classes at they grand porto, they'll be able to come to the royal at anytime without buying a day pass (at least, that was the case according to this thread awhile back).

 

good luck!!

Thank you all! This forum is awesome and makes me feel like I'm not going it alone!! It's nice to find a place with so many helpful people to share ideas, contacts and spread the love!,

Hi, Denielle! I actually have Denys.  If you have any info from Ana, that would be so very helpful!!!  Any documents/PDFs of the packages, menus, decorations, etc. would be great!  Thank you so much for your help!!!

Chair sashes and napkins  150$ for 100 each, I plan to resell this all stuff

 

Are you guys having problems with them not decorating anything?

I am bringing chair ties, centerpieces, flowers and isle runner - Ana (off site coordinator) said they will not decorate anything we bring that is not the resort, I am about to have a heart attack - it really does seem they don't want to work with you or be flexible... I guess it is what it is....

 

Brides, what have they NOT let you do or wouldnt do for you when you asked them when you were already there for your wedding??

 

Thanks!
