Hello,

I have not tried to do this but I don't think that you have to. I think that the addtional $18 that you pay per person is to cover that. I haven't heard of anyone needing to rent chairs,

Thanks! Also curious if anyone knows how to get ahold of Guy Godfrey? It seems like he is much more reasonable with flowers......and does anyone have pictures of things he did?

 

Please be aware of Guy Godfrey, there have been so horror stories on this thread. Read through so of the past bride experiences. Though tai Flora is pricey, THEY ARE AMAZING!!!

Hey fabulous Iberostar Brides! Now that my wedding is over, I am working to clean out my extra room, please take a look at my for sale list!

i have also been looking to rent chairs from the hotel - i don't like chairs with chair covers and sashes, just not my thing.  i have spoken to nicole about this and she told me you can rent chivalri chairs from tai flora.  i have not heard back from tai flora about pricing but read somewhere else that tai flora charged them $8 per chair for chivalri chairs.... i know the hotel doesn't have pretty plain white chairs either (no seat covers) and also asked tai flora if i can get those from them or plain benches for the ceremony.. i want chairs for both my ceremony AND reception - my dad is ok with $8 per chair for one of the events (i'm thinking the reception) but we'll see....

I agree I really like the chivalri chairs too and I think I am going to go that route depending on the amount of people going... I can not justify paying 800 for chairs if we do get 100 people going... I am still waiting to hear back from tai flora about the cost of the nice set up outside port maria.. But I am pretty sure you can use the chivalri chars for the reception and ceremony, because you are still paying for them to set up both places (if you had the chair covers/sashes you would have them at both for no extra cost was my understanding (i think they just move everything over)

As an alternative option, Janielle let me use the wicker chairs chairs that are available throughout the property (but they're mainly at Port Maria).  I hated the look of the covered chairs, but I didn't want to pay $8 to rent a chair.  It looked lovely at the reception, but at the last minute she said I couldn't use them for the beach ceremony (so I had to use the covered chairs).  But if you rent the chairs, you only pay for 1 set and then they relocate them for your reception.

Leah I can not wait to see pics and read ur full review... what meal package did you end up doing and who was your photographer?!

have you heard from tai flora at all?  let me know whatever pricing they give you.. i have emailed them a MILLION times and still no response except from the initial "congratulations on your wedding."  i just want an idea of everything to budget...

 

after your ceremony, are you having a cocktail hour so they have time to move the chairs/set-up?  we weren't going to have a cocktail hour after the wedding - we were going to do a pre-cocktail wedding cocktail hour, ceremony, reception so i am just thinking when they would be able to move everything over?  leah, do you know if for all weddings they use the same chairs for both ceremony & reception?

I have only gotten the congrats email like 10 times, with 20 questions about what colors you like etc... and no quotes, I like you would like a quote, also so I can figure out if I should bring things or just suck it up and pay their prices. We are doing a cocktail hour after the ceremony, because we want to take pictures after and we dont want our guests to just be sitting around before the reception. But honestly everything is going to depend on how many people come... we keep getting people who are saying that they are coming and it looks like its about 100.. BUT when it really comes down to it I am interested t o see how many people actually book.
