Cocktail hour

[Jerzzygirl]

Not sure if this has been posted anywhere yet, sorry if its a duplicate, I emailed Chandlyn to see if I could have a cocktail hour after the wedding pictures and all are finished. This was her reply and the menu she sent me. I was thinking since my wedding is from 2pm-3pm I would have this from 3-4 and then we could go back to the room to freshen up and have some alone time. This is what she said.

 

Arrangements can made for the cocktail hour at the beach bar(semi-private) with horsdouvres at the additional cost. Kindly see attached

I am having my cocktail hour after the ceremony at the ceremonly location. My wedding is from 4-5. My cocktail hour will begin at 5pm and I will be having the steel drum band playing during this time. Right after we will head to the plantation from 6:30 to 10:30. I am going to have the DJ at the reception for 4 hrs playing so that we don't have to change locations for a third time by going to the disco.

You can have a semi-private or private dinner at either Mammee Bay or Plantation Restaurant, depending on the size of your party. There is no cost for the semi-private dinner at Mammee Bay (if you're group is less than 50 I believe). The cost of the private dinner at the Plantation is $500 for 2 hours or $1000 for 4 hours. Open bar is $10 per person. DJ for the restaurants is $150 per hour. You can also rent out the Pascha Disco for 2 hours for $250, which includes dj and open bar. If you read through other posts in the Jamaica section of the forum, I'm pretty sure that there are explanations of the menus and costs and whatnot. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi, I am having my reception at the mammee bay steak house. We are having a smaller group so the steakhouse is fine for us. I canceled the disco, decided with my small group there is really no need. We really want to go to the beach party anyway. So thats where our dancing will be. I will have our wedding dance on the beach when the steel drums are playing.

Jerzzygirl thanks for posting this info.

As a newbie, I've been planning my ceremony/reception & was interested in having a cocktail hour on the beach before the reception. Thanks to you I now have an idea about the menu and prices!
