Just Returned From ROR

Thanks everyone. I would say all in all everything went well. We ordered the Royal package but I had my Aunt who lives in Jamaica bake the cake and my Uncle who is a minister there performed the ceremony. We didnt use Michael because a friend of ours who is a amatuer photographer came i our group and he acutally took some amazing shots. I would have to say the best parts were the service and the scenery. Everyone was at your service and you can't beat blue skies and no clouds in sight.

 

We only had a couple of problems, one with Skyservice and one with ROR. A lady at the checkin counter told us that we could hang my wife's wedding dress in the plane so we took it out of the box that it was in and discarded the box. However, when we got on the plane they told us that there was no such thing and we had to find space some where in the overhead compartment to stuff the wedding dress into.

 

At the ROR they had 4 (thats right 4) weddings on the same day. So when we came for our reception at Mammee Bay it wasnt ready. No tables, no decorations, nothing. However, we I spoke to the restaurant manager, within 5 minutes he had about 4 staff plus himself set up the area. Even the Hotel Manager came to make sure we were 100% happy. In the end we were able to get a few freebies to make up for the inconvenience so it wasnt too bad.

 

We werent able to go all out for the wedding and reception because we had to plan a reception back home for another 300 people. But we think what we got was great. Ocho Rios, is great and the ROR is fantastic and I cant say enough about the service. I was really worried about going there but Chandlyn does a great job and making you feel at ease. I guess the best way to sum it up was when my wife went to the salon the day before our wedding to make an appointment but the girl at the front desk said that they were all booked up. Just then the actual hair stylist came out and when my wife told her the situation she said " Never let anyone tell you that we're too busy for you". Pretty much made her day.

 

I put a link on here for the pics, but these are from friends that came. Once we receive all of them I will post them soon......

    • 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!
