thanks everyone for pics and documents!

 

So I have a question im still confused about.... so lets say i have 50 people. I plan on using the renewal of vows with a beach reception. The renewal of vows says it includes 20 people only. So does this matter if Im doing the beach reception anyway and Im going to owe 92$ a person?

OR do I still owe the 10 dollars pp for the ceremony over the included 20 people and then the 92 pp for the reception for every person attending

 

Im still confused.

Anyone who is out there have a large group of people and doing the beach reception that can tell me all their breakdowns of costs and clear some stuff up for me?

 

thanks!

Oh wow I'm not sure about the extra charges. I didn't know it was $10 extra per person over 20 people. What's the extra charge for? Just to set up some more chairs or does that give you a bigger cake and champagne toast for all your guests?

[suntansam]

ya thats what im confused about- the 10 dollar charge is what it says in the generic email I first got from the WC, and Im assuming thats for any package you decide to go over the amt of people outlined in the package?

Hi, I am planning to possibly book the Grand Riviera Princess for our wedding Nov 2009. I am confused on the costs too. We want to do a reception after as well.

I have a travel agent who is looking into this for me right now but is away in the Mayan Riviera for the week. I have been told that it is the same wedding co ordinator but not sure if that is the case either. All new to me. If you have any November pricing I would greatly appreciated it. I just have 2008 pricing.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

hey also as another question for you two girls getting married in Nov 09.... I plan on october/novemeber there but I tried booking nights on the GSP/GRP website but they say that none of the fall dates are availble for booking...is it just that their website isnt booking so far out in advance yet?

 

did you girls already book rooms and did you try using their booking website? I dont want to book my wedding date if rooms arent available......

[**TIFFANY**]

Most airlines only book so far in advance so that's probably why you can't book anything through their website yet. I know applevacations.com you can select and book November 2009 dates. We're getting married here on November 14th next year. We haven't book the flight and room yet because I want to wait until more options are available and hopefully a little cheaper.

 

BrideNov2009, Damarys is the wedding coordinator for both sides. I think the only difference in the resort is which side your room is on. From my understanding everything else is the same between the two resorts.

 

Roxane, I noticed you decided on a date, that's awesome! Have you confirmed it yet with Damarys or are you still getting more information? How long are you staying, we'll be arriving on the 11th so hopefully you'll still be there so we can meet up.

Thank you Roxane. My email address is: candice_fidlin@hotmail.com

I really appreciate it. (note there is an underscore between names)

 

suntansam - I have been working with a travel agent here in Ontario that specializes with weddings in the carribean and I am sure the reason why you can not find pricing now as it will come up "unavailable" is because they do not have the pricing yet. I tried today and it looks like I could find departing on Oct 24th with some pricing coming up.

 

Regarding my wedding date we are trying to see what is available right now and go from there. Since we have to be there 3 full days (for Civil marriage) and do the blood test I can only get married on a Thursday or Friday (we are planning on going Saturday to Saturday and because Saturday and Sunday is a weekend they do not count along with any Mexican holidays as they do not count as well I am told).

 

I have sent off and email to Damays but I have read she can be hard to get a hold of but will respond but can take a few days.

 

I was reading some of the reviews on trip advisor and they worry me a bit. From what I hear about the weddings that go on there they seem to have no issues and goes for the most part pretty smooth (which I want). I guess it is what you make of it too : )

[suntansam]

Ya it seems like some of the airlines are opening up their dates for next fall finally...but it was the GRP/GSP website that I tried using to potentially book rooms on without going through a travel agent since I dont have one right now, but their website when i put in dates for fall show up as unavailable so thats what freaked me out. But, it must be that they just havent opened their booking for it yet?

 

I just didnt want to book the wedding date and find out there arent rooms available, but it just must be not open to book those dates yet..... I wanted to call the reservation line but calling spain for reservations was not in my agenda today
