We are getting married January 26, 2013 at Rose Hall Suites and us and guests are paying $1628 all in to fly from Toronto for 7 nights....hope this encourages you to shop around, our travel agent is Marlin Travel if you want to contact them. Good luck

I'm getting married Jan 28th and flying from TO as well. I wanted the 26th of Jan at one point. but SOMEONE had already booked it. haha.

I haven't seen luminary bags around but I would check out Michaels.

 

Otherwise I think you need flame-resistent bags, but you could use regular bags with electrical lights rather than real candles. 

 

I love the idea of having them around in the sand! Definitely going to have to steal that haha

Yes if you pay the initial bonfire cost and for the additional guest they set up a private bar at the pool bar.  It works out great!

So I just found out that because I won't have 30 people I won't be able to rent the disco. I'm also worried because if I can't do the disco I'll have to do a bonfire at the beach BUT I'm getting married on a Thursday and I heard the IRHB has a beach party that night...so idk if that's even possible. Any suggestions???

You could still have a cocktail party on the terrace or the pool deck!

I think you could still do something on the beach - I know with the Suites we can have our beach cocktail party reception in a few different spots, so I'm thinking it would be the same at the Beach.

Hey Girls...I have a question about videography.  I am bringing a friend of mine who is a photographer but I was also thinking about having the ceremony and reception videotaped.  Has anyone done this or considering doing it?  I am wondering if anyone has any referrals or cost information about video?  I see the resort (Digipix) will videotape the ceremony for what seems like a reasonable cost, but I also would like the reception taped.  I appreciate your suggestions!

Thanks! I talked to the wedding coordinator and she said I could do either a cocktail party on the terrace or rent the disco(which I can't because I don't have 30 ppl).

So I think we're gonna go w/ the cocktail party and rent a DJ. & it's cheaper than the beach bonfire anyways

I agree - you looked gorgeous. I was a bit nervous about using the salon, but after seeing your pictures I am much more confident now. Do you remember the names of who did your hair & make up? I love both. I am also going to be a July bride next year.

Sorry I forgot to add the quote I was responding to. Still new here & getting used to how this thread works.
