I had a hard time because I booked through destinationweddings.com and the agent was an idiot. I had to call the head of the company and then they put it through. I had alot of time in advance so I got my WHOLE deposit back

I'm happy you made the right decision for you and your FI. I just did the same thing this week. I was booked at Beaches Negril and although I loved all they included the fact that I could not customize the wedding to my likes and desires completely discouraged me, especially not being able to have the photographer I desired. So we've decided to get married at Iberostar Suites (since I have children) in Montego Bay. The reviews, TA and forums on here have all solidified my decision. I'm so excited.

Not trying to chnage your mind but just so that you know- you can have your own photographer at a Beaches or Sandals resorts- they just need to stay at the resort for the 3 nights!

I was looking at Beaches Negril too because our wedding party will have about 10 kids in it and I wanted to make sure that they would not be bored however, the packages are very pricey and the rooms are not that great (looking at pictures on trip advisor)! So good for you that you made the change!!

I'm sure it was a hard decision. Glad you are relieved - now you can kick back and enjoy the festivities! Whoo-hoo!
