Does anyone find it odd that you can't use your ceremony decorations for the reception even though you're paying for it?

Were any of you successful in trying to get a deal? It really seems ridiculous how much extra stuff you have to pay for. I'm starting to consider Jellyfish restaurant...the decorations definitely are much nicer.

Thoughts?

Hey all - I'm booked for November 10, 2010 at the Majestic Elegance!
So excited! I'm also curious about the open bar charge - if you have the reception at one of the restaraunts would there be a bar close by to get drinks at?

Thanks for your help!

I asked the wedding coordinator there a similar question regarding how beverages work for private receptions and below is the response I got. I believe that the bar is a short walk for private receptions.

A private reception dinner with the buffet menu offered will be US$55+26% per person including wine, beer, champagne and soft drinks during dinner.

About the open bar you have two options:



- US$500.00 per hour flat rate including national open bar and sound system

- Buying the open bar per person which will be US$15+26% for the first hour and half price for the following hours.

Oh no worries, gives me more reason to post at work and procrastinate from this report I'm supposed to be writing, lol.

Can anyone tell me how it works to have dinner at one of the restaurants at the Majestic Elegance resort and then have a private reception for cocktails and cake? Do we have to pay extra for dinner at one of the resorts restaurants if all of the guests are staying there? Is it really crowded in the restaurants? What is the maximum number of people they allow for reservations for a wedding? Sorry so many questions. Any information any one has would be great. I was originally trying to do a private dinner reception as well, but this seems to add a lot of extra cost. We are expecting about 30 people for the wedding. Thanks!
