battery powered ipod and speakers?


Recommended Posts

So I think most of you know that Beaches has annoyed me ever since I booked my wedding. I always try to look past it cuz we can't change the location site, but I am kinda crabby today and they just pissed me off.

 

We are only having 26 people (22 adults) in Jamaica for our reception. I don't want to spend almost $1k for a DJ for such a small group, so I emailed them to confirm they would provide a power cord if I brought an ipod and speakers or docking station. She wrote me back that she would suggest I bring battery powered everything since there are no plugs at the reception sites.

 

Am I out of line for thinking they should just supply me with an extension cordhuh.gif It doesn't seem too much to ask in my head, but like I said, I am a little crabby today...

that seems strange that they can't supply you with an extension cord. are you having the reception on the beach, where there is no access to power?

 

I brought batteries for our docking station because I wasn't sure if they would have a cord, but they did so we didn't need the batteries. Our docking station took a LOT of batteries! I think it was 8 or 12 D batteries.

That sucks Carly! Our reception site had electricity, so it wasn't a big deal. They had a stereo setup, so we just plugged the ipod in through that. What do they do if they get a DJ? They must have some way of hooking up his equipment... ?

This may be a stupid question, but they do have 3 prong outlets correcthuh.gif

 

And whoever ahs that iPod BOSE docking station, are you pleased with it and does it take batteries? We went to Bose (since that is the system I have in my SUV and I love them) and listened to it and it sounded very good, but I am just worried that it sounded good in an enclosed space...how will it sound outside? We haven't bought it yet, but I wanted to see if anyone knew anything about it?

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
