Sunset Beach Resort & Spa - past and future brides, please post here!

[miamoo]

Hiya,  I have booked the sunset beach resort as a last minute deal for me, OH and dd (16years).

I am just about to book an upgraded room and have realised we could get a free wedding, which as we were planning a very quiet wedding next year would be perfect.  I wouldn't need any extra's and wouldn't want a fuss just a quick ceremony for the 2 of us with dd there.  I wouldn't want a reception or a party afterwards, we would just go to the yacht club for a meal or something.

 

Does anyone know if this is possible when I go in 9 weeks? I notice that everyone else books a year in advance so I am doubting it will be possible.  I dont want to email the hotel and look really stupid lol!

 

Thanks for reading

I think I just brought it all with me. I had my bridesmaid carry it on their flights and just paid the 2nd bag fee for them.  I also weighed them to make sure they weren't overweight.

Hello all- I'm new to this site and have been fishing around for a few weeks trying to settle on the perfect resort. I have not secured a date yet (due to my indecisiveness) :confused: but now I think I'm leaning towards Sunset Beach October 2014 . After reading all the threads and reviews, which by the way were oh so helpful, the only thing that seems to be missing is reviews about entertainment that the resort offers. (I.e Grand Palladium has a beach BBQ every Friday night w/ DJ) For the past brides, was there any resort entertainment, parties, clubs at Sunset? :punk:

Question: I see that there is a $199 government and licensing fee in addition to the wedding package cost. Does getting legally married here in the states before you go to the resort has any impact on this or does the fee still stand?

Hi Ladies...I wanted to know if anyone had any issues with their documentation....did you only have to bring notarized copies of the your documents or did you have to get them certified as well...I just to want to be sure I don't have any hiccups when I get there...also how long did it take for you to actually receive your marriage certificate...thanks...have a blessed one
