Majestic Colonial or Elegance Brides Post Here

[torilynnsmith]

Majestic offers a "free" wedding dinner at one of the restaurants so you could still do this option.  It is up to 60 people but I don't think you plan on going over that.    You could have your dinner at 6:30PM (earliest time) and then afterwards do first dances at the gazebo, just bring an ipod dock as I hear there is even a plug there that you can use.  Then head to one of the bars with your group and just hang out until the disco opens at 11PM!!!

 

Check out the "Majestic Colonial Brides" group on facebook if you havent already, it is a wealth of info.

Hi Ladies!  Does anyone know temperature wise what time of day is best to book your ceremony towards the end of January ( I dont know if the time of year there actually makes a difference or not) but heat wise what times are good to try to book for?  Are there specific set times available?  Or do they just tell you what time without a choice? 

Or I guessanother way of putting it would what is the most sought after times of day for ceremonies if that makes sence? 

Thanks for any input

I think times are set so you may not have an option but 3PM seems to be "prime" time as it allows you to do the ceremony, takes some pictures and then head to dinner afterwards

Hi Bettina,

 

I'm getting married at ME Feb 29, 2012. Our wedding is at 2:30pm and we're having dinner at Sea & See restaurant.

 

I'm am staying in my dress, I've been so excited about wearing it and I'm gonna take every moment I can to stay in it.

Regarding the orchid bouquet when I asked the WC about the cost she said its one of the upgraded bouquets and costs an extra $100 US. I found this awesome florist in Guelph, Ontario who's doing all my flowers with Floramatique faux flowers so my bridal party can use them down there and then use them for the reception back home. She's doing everything through email and Skype with me.

 

For favors we're doing OOT bags.

For decor paying for the ceremony decor but for the reception we're bring down the centerpieces (2-3 is what we need) and table cloths from walmart. My mother and bridesmaids are helping to transport stuff down in their bags.

 

Hope this helps. If you have any more question msg me.

For those MC/ME brides who have already been married, what was your total budget?  I am getting nervous about all the hidden fees and taxes. I am only having about 40 ppl but I would like something nice and don't want to break the bank.   Comparing prices with offsite restaurants as they may suite my budget better.

Thanks for asking this question!  I definitely share your concerns but was a little afraid to ask!  We have gone back and forth with Hard Rock or MC, and now we are leaning toward staying at MC/ME but with our wedding and reception at the Jellyfish... It just seems like you might get more for the money that way but I'm having a hard time getting in touch with WCs and locking down the date(s)... (Super STRESSED! )
