Please let me know if you get any information on a better way to get into contact with them or hear back from them. I called today to speak with someone but they said the wedding specialist went to lunch. I left all my contact information and am hoping to hear back soon.  Thanks, Mindy

We used http://weddingbellesjamaica.com/ . I was in contact Jo-Anne. She was fantastic. She did up gift bags for us which where delivered to the hotel. There was a bunch of stuff you could select from (rum, sauces, coffee, etc) In regards to sky lanterns.. I didn't have them myself, but I have used them.. you need two people at least to set them off.. (one needs to hold while the other lights it) so one per couple is more then enough.

Thanks so much!!

Has anyone who is having or had their wedding at the Grand heard or had to pay extra money on top of the $100 day pass to have their non-Iberostar guests stay for dinner and dancing?

 

My wedding is next week and I just heard of this! The documents state 100 for "wedding festivities" dinner and dancing is part of the "festivities."

 

Anyone else had this issue or did you end up paying just $100 day pass?

Omg its getting so close. I haven't been on the forum or really thought much about the wedding since December...guess its time to dive back in.

Hello all,

 

Just curious if any of you brides out there were able to have a priest come to the Iberostar Rose Hall Suites resort to perform your Catholic wedding ceremony?

 

I emailed Nicole and Tiffany but thought I would try to see if anyone here had success with this.

 

If you did do this, how much extra was it and did you have to bring some paperwork from your own church to prove you did marriage classes and that your parish approves?

 

I have read different things: some websites say Catholic priests do not come to resorts and will only marry you in a church in Montego Bay, other says the the Rose Hall resorts and Sandals resorts have had Catholic priests do it.

 

Just curious....thanks a lot for the information

Can't comment on it on getting a Catholic priest to the resort.. but if its to be a true Catholic ceremony, does it not have to be in a Church? My Catholic friends all had to get married in a church to follow the church's strict guidelines.

 

If you can't find one that will do it, you may want to get married at home in the church, then have a 'renewal' on the beach?

Hey Kassi,

 

I am hoping to be able to have a Catholic priest be able to do the wedding in Jamaica.  I know I may have to get married here and do the renewal on the beach but I would rather not do that.  I ruins the Jamaican ceremony for me a little.  I want one ceremony and I want it to be the real deal lol

 

Nicole or Tiffany hasnt responded to me yet about the Catholic priest coming to Iberostar so well see!!!!!!

 

Thanks Kassi!!

Hey Julia,

 

As far as catholic priests ... I think Karen is right, in order to be recognized a catholic ceremony, it must be done in a catholic church. The resort may be able to find you a catholic priest, but you may have to get married offsite. There is a bride who booked Stephen Henriques, a rabbi to do a Jewish ceremony, it is costing her $800, plus I believe you would have to pay a vendor fee on top of it. I'm not sure if the resort suggested him, or she found him herself. It might be worth finding out though.

[Julia28]

Thanks a lot for that!!!!
