Need to VENT my Cozumel wedding in less than 2 weeks!

I'm really annoyed/mad/pissed/upset right now so just bare with me please. We started planning our wedding in July 08. We picked out a venue in Cozumel and they scheduled our wedding. They told us Deposit was not due until 90 days before the wedding and full payment was due 2 weeks prior. We picked this location for the sole reason that we could rent out the entire Beach Club for our wedding ONLY! We even paid extra money so it would be private for our guests (44 people total). We got our contract and it states also that we are paying XX amount for the Private use of the Beach Club.

Well we made final payment last week. I get an email today telling me "by the way there's 4 other guests that have booked the club for that day as well". I was FLOORED! Needless to say I told her it was unacceptable. We paid extra money (extra $16/pp) on top of the "normal" entrance fee to have the club "Private". She told me out of respect for the other guests she couldn't cancel their reservation! What about "respect" for our CONTRACT that states it's Private and no other guests would be there. I know it's only 4 people, but it's the principal. We would've paid the normal price and not had it Private and saved over $700 if we knew this would've happened.

This entire process with this venue has been like pulling teeth from the start. We just really fell in love with the location and the "Private-ness" of it all and now this!

Now I'm waiting to hear back from her manager on what can be done. I have a sick feeling that he's going to say nothing. Our hands are tied since our wedding is less than 2 weeks away and we just made final payment. It just doesn't seem right that they are able to make us pay for a service that we are no longer getting!

Okay.....my vent has been long enough....I'll keep you all update...thanks for letting me get this out!

Yea I'd be totally upset as well. I agree that you should ask for a refund out of respect for your contract, or they should kick the other guests out. That's total BS. I can't believe they did that!

Girl you need to raise hell and get your extra cash back!!! If you specifically paid them the extra $$$ to have a private affair closed to the public, but they are going to allow 4 others in the area, then they are violating the terms of your contract plain and simple. It doesn't matter how few public guests are allowed, that's a load of shit!!! censored.gif

 

Raise hell, and get that money back. Wow, I'm totally pissed for you ~ I hate when businesses think they can just bend terms in their favor thinking it's ok. Uggghhhh BangHead.gif

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
