[daphodil]

I am a newbie and was also interested in the info about the menus.  My email address is [email protected].  If that info can be forwarded to me it would be appreciated.  Thanks for all the info.

i got the big email from the assistant the other day and it had all the prices for the "extras you can recieve, and in there it says you have to pay for table linens, and chair covers, is this true? i've heard some people say that they didn't have to pay but just curious on others understanding of this.  as well as the renting of the gazebo for the dance from 9-11.  is this $500 for the rental and the DJ?? because again the email i got said that the DJ rental for 1 hour is $400? any thoughts from all the other brides would be much appreciated!  and i looked into those wedding packages from noli/transat, and there is a lot of "fine print" i found and wasn't really worth it (in my case anyways), read carefully if you are thinking of these packages!!

Thanks for the pics of the Italian Grill, Stephali!  That is definately the restaurant that we would like...the more private the better!

 

ames9782- I was quoted $500 for gazebo rental 8:30- 10:30 including dj, $250 w/out the DJ.  I also asked if we could go any later or earlier and she said no.  (Your dinner is 6:30-8:30).  Also, I am under the impression that you do have to pay for chair covers and linens.

I'm getting married April 22

 

I emailed Beverly's assistant the other day asking about the long form birth certificates and she told me that the short form ones will be just fine. Has anyone else used the short ones? i don't wanna show up there then find out it wont work, but i'd also like to not have to pay for new ones......

You need to get in touch with vital statistics in BC, they will be able to provide you with a long form birth cert. You can order it online here..

The yellow in the pictures is the pre-done menu...its probably whatever paper they have! lol....

 

 

I just used my normal birth certificate...I had asked Beverly and she said not to worry about it....

[mekanabr]

Beverly told me that you could bring your own paper if you wanted a certain color for the menus...if they are yellow, I might have to do that!  Thanks for the heads up about the color!!

Hi everybody! I have been reading this thread for months now and just joined up as a member tonight1! I am getting married at the Gran Bahia Principe in Runaway Bay on August 18, 2011. I have learned so much and recieved answers to many of my questions from everyone on here, so thank you!

I am trying now to decide on a photographer. Does anybody have any suggestions on who is good to use?

Welcome to this forum!  I'm sure you will find it extremely useful.  We are using Merrick Cousley as our photographer.  We know someone who has used him and his pictures are just what we were looking for, and he is reasonable priced!
