Hello all,

 

I have read every single page in this forum and it has been such a great help!

 

This hotel is one of my options for my DW that I am planning for Jan 2014!

 

My Fiance backround is Jamaican, His parents are from there, so I am laughing when you guys say they run on their own time.. THAT they definately do! I have to deal with it here at home! So Im sure if I pick any resrot in Jamaica I will be able to SOMEWHAT deal with "Jamaican time" as we call it lol.  Though Im sure it will still drive me a little bit crazy (it does now!)

 

I think the biggest advice I will take from this is KEEP every email! Sounds like they change their prices a bit, So I will keep a eye on that!

 

I meet with my TA tomorrow to see what they can offer and do, and hopefully have a decision made on what resort we are going to pic!

 

Everyones pics look great. For outside photographers did you just pay for them for the night so that way they are a "guest " and not a vendor?Or can you just get them the day pass for the resort in stead if you are not wanting pics of you getting ready?

 

Im sure I will have more questions to ask later!!

OH THANKS! I havent booked any photographers yet. Im thinking of just taking the free pics that come with the package, and then doing a photo shoot off the resort, Def going to do a TTD session thats what I really want pics of And then have some pics done from the onsite photographer just for whatever is free.  I have a friend who is pretty good with a camera so im sure she can do some pics.

IrishGirlMD, could I get Keisha's email information from you, or anyone, please. My vow renewal ceremony is on March 1 of this year, and I still haven't heard from her. I'm thinking maybe I should contact her, but I didn't receive her email in any of my correspondence with the resort.

Sorry Brenda, I just now saw your post.  But that is the correct email that Sunshinybride posted.

 

She never contacted me first, I contacted her.  But she will not "plan" anything until closer to your day.  She will reserve whatever reception you want and answer questions about prices and will email you some pictures.

OK girls so I finally heard back from the corporate office.

 

Her first email was very confusing and vague so my response back was simply, "will I be forced to pay for a private reception if I have 45 guests"  and her response was no.

 

I will say, that she totally copied Keisha on ALL emails.  Thankfully I didn't say anything negative about her or it would have made it very awkward to work with her.  So if you email corporate, be sure to remember that whatever you type, Keisha will see.

 

But I consider it a win.  I'm not paying an extra couple of thousand dollars.  My wallet is very happy.

 

Thanks for the support girls, I never would have known to do that without the knowledge of this forum.  Thanks!  Happy Bride right here.

Hi, I am having my ceremony at thr RIU and my reception at a venue close by. Over 80% of my guest are staying at the resort and I wanted to get the free package since our reception is elsewhere....Keisha told me I have to pay $10.50 pp to attend the wedding....does anyone know if this is correct or not???? Thanks,

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      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!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      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!
