Getting married at ROR in January 2010

Hi there,

 

I am really happy to have found this site and can't wait to find out more info. We are getting married at Rio Ocho Rios January 15th 2010, and we cannot wait. I have soooo many questions!

 

It seems like those that have gotten married at ROR have mostly positive things to say. I have to admit that reading the trip advisor reports had gotten me a little worried.

 

Any tips or advice would be most appreciated.

I am trying to get a picture in my mind of the flow of the day. Our ceremony is booked for 4:00 at the beach gazebo, what does everyone suggest for the dinner, do I go with one of the free options or do I upgrade? Should I book the reception afterwards? If so where does everone suggest?

 

I am really interested to hear your feedback. I want to ensure that everyone enjoys the day (including us!) and I am wanting to ensure that I do not go crazy and pay for add ons that are not necessary.

 

We are looking at the royale package (is this necessary/worth it?) and adding on the steel drum band. Not sure yet about the decor items we want, I am pretty sure we are not going to go crazy in this area, we want the set up to be simple and not get to bogged down in details like we would if we were getting married here.

 

What is the menu like for the set dinner? Are you able to have music played during dinner? Do I need to bring an IPOD and docking station?

 

I am hiring a photographer to come to the wedding (he will be a guest all week) will I get a hard time about that?

 

Sorry, I have lots of questions! Looking forward to hearing back from everyone!

Hi and congrats, also welcome to the site. We are also getting married at ROR on August 7 2010 . This site is full of great information. Yes you are able to have music playing during dinner. From the reviews I have seen on the site alot of couples did in fact bring there ipod and Docking station. For menu selections go to the carribean section and click on jamaica forum then Look for the title that says Riu Ochos Rios(ROR) wedding dates *Important links here* when you find it click on it. It is the first one on page for me but it may change. When you click on it it has 3 links that has menus and reception details to help you out.

    • 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!
