ROR Brides (Riu Ocho Rios)


Recommended Posts

Hi Joanne We are getting Married Nov 27th 2013 to. Our wedding is at 5pm.
I am thinking Nov 28 2014 for our wedding. From what I've been reading, it is just at the end of the hurricane season and therefore I should get cheaper rates. Have you talked to any other November Jamaica brides?

I chose November 30, 2013 for the exact same reasons that you speak of mrsbrowntobe. End of hurricane season and before peak season :)

Does ayone know if the DJ at the disco will take requests or play songs you want when you rent out the disco for the 2 hours? Also, are you allowed to bring your own tulle and decorations for the wedding gazebo? My dad is a florist and is making all the flowers before hand with real touch silk flowers :)

ladies I have a date confIrmed with my credit card holding it (November 28, 2014). I am living in Fort Mcmurray Alberta. Most guests will be flying from Alberta and Newfoundland. Just heard back from a local TA who specializes in destination weddings. She says that not many Canadian all inclusive travel companies offer packages to Riu resorts. She can fly us out of Edmonton but any fort mac guests will have to book their own travel from here to there. And they won't be offering flights from Newfoundland until sometime in 2015!!! Since the date is over a year away they don't have any rates right now but they provided her with aprojected rate for November 2014. from Edmonton it will cost $2088. I am worried that with adding flights from here and guests flying from Newfoundland that this resort will end up being unaffordable for my guests. My TA is recommending switching resorts but I have my heart set on ROR. What did past ROR brides end up paying? What were future ROR brides quoted? Any fall 2014 quotes? Any ROR newfie brides? How did you deal with flight issues? Can anyone recommend a different TA? Maybe I'd be better off doing it without one? I used air Canada vacations last summer for Mexico and they were awesome. would really like to use them again but they don't offer packages to Riu. :(

Any fall 2014 quotes?

that is so weird. They did not ask for my credit card information and when my wedding agent emailed them they said they did not need it. I am very confused!

    • 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!
