St Thomas Wedding June 2011 WC Help

[StThomas2011]

For my welcome dinner on 2.24.2011 I just put down my deposit at Robert's American Grille at Cowpet Bay.  For a "Casual Beach BBQ" they charge starting at $28/person for the food and then you can do a drink package or you can do based on consumption.  I'm gonna do consumption because I don't think it will be worth it for all you can drink for the welcome dinner.

 

If you have any more specific questions, let me know!

Talking to a few places, it looks like for parties under probably about 50, we are better off doing consumption based over open bar.  I'm thinking of doing Bolongo, but some of these places are so hard to get in touch with. I heard a lot about island vendors and how it's very hard to contact them. I'll take a look at Roberts American Grille as well.

St Thomas is one of my (3) choices too that I've been gathering information from.  The wedding package prices that I've seen aren't too bad, but the hotel rates everywhere were just too high!!  We loved the Wyndham, but paying $400-$600/night is NOT an option for us or our guests.

I mean, cmon. The hotel is nice, but not that nice!  Especially when the Ritz Carlton - Rose Hall in Jamaica is $179/night.

 

I'm just saying

Janelle is currently helping my plan my Aug 2011 wedding in St John and she has been fantastic.  Always quick to reply and very helpful- especially with some of my more off the wall questions!

Hi everyone,

 

I'm late coming into this thread since I'm a noob and just started planning my 2013 cruise wedding.  I was wondering if any of you did a cruise wedding and lastly, how did everyone's turn out w/ your WC.  I'm still in the process of weighing out the pros and cons of using a cruise line WC or an of the cruise one.  Thank you for your time!

Does anyone know if the marriott would allow someone like Janelle to come in and assist since she is a planner outside of the marriott event planning organization?
