yes and no. Luckily where i'm having mine,it's at sandals so it's adults only so they know that no children will be there. i did have that problem big time when i was having it here in atlanta and i got a lot of grief for having it as dw in place that was for adults only. the bottom line that i explained to them is first of all. this is a wedding, a sacred ceremony. where alcohol is being consumed and served, there will be adults doing and speaking like adults do which makes this a "kid free environment" it makes it not a place for children to patiake in. It's not a backyard barbeque. as the bride you have every right to want what you want.(does''t make you a bridezilla) I've found that when children attend functions like this, as adults, you can't even really enjoy yourself at your own damn wedding. Kids crying, all over place, you can't even dance on floor for them being on floor in the way(parents not saying nothing or thinking and saying"awwwwe, that's so cute) no the hell it's not cute at all. lol. Kids running by licking their finger and on you cake. it's just not a good mix. if you are having a dw where children are not able to attend, as long as you have let parents know in advance in enough time to make accomodations for their children, they shouldn't grumble at all. if they choose to not attend because of that, you have done you're part by providing them all time to govern themselves accordingly. if you are having at resort that allows children and they are complaining about having to pay for children, same thing.as long a you give them ample time to make arrangements either way. i've seen where people get made and stop speaking saying" if my child isn't welcome", neither am i. It's not about your child not being welcome, it's about this is not a environment for children to be a part of. lol

Congrats to all the JA brides!...I am in January 2014 at Sunset Beach Resort and Spa in Montego Bay...How's the planning going...My nerves are shot...the resort has been wonderful but I am still stressing? How are you all doing? Congrats again...

Hello!! I'm new to this site, I see you will be getting married at the Sunset Beach Resort and Spa in Montego Bay! I'm trying to decide if that will be my location. It's good to hear that you said the resort has been wonderful thus far.  The resort doesn't have great pictures, I have been trying to find someone who has recently gotten married there to tell me their experience and to possibly see pictures.  Have you met anyone up here that has recently gotten married there? The prices are very affordable as well so I was wondering if the quality of the resort was just as great!!

Hello. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. When I first started planning, I was going to go with the Wyndham but it was not working out so well and then we decided we wanted to make it a family vacation, so I went with Sunset because it appears to be more "kid" friendly. As far as pictures, there is a thread for "Sunset Beach Resort Brides" (I think that is the thread but if you put that in the search bar it should come up) and some brides posted pictures of their wedding there or they put links to websites of their wedding. I too am a little skeptical about the quality and it has received mixed reviews but the wedding pictures I saw looked great and I also found someone's wedding on You tube and it was gorgeous, so I decided to go with it. So even if it is not five star, I know my wedding will be lovely and with family, friends, and a new husband what else matters. Good Luck and feel free to write back with questions. The staff has been nothing but wonderful. Another plus is that you get a state side coordinator as well as a coordinator on the island so that has been very helpful. Let me know if I can help anymore.

    • 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!
