Grand Palladium Wedding 2016

[kdepass2]

Hi ladies,

 

All the posts I see are in the past and I need some NEW and up-to-date info.

 

Looking to get married at GP in Jamaica during the week of October 24-28 (awaiting wedding coordinator to confirm a date).

 

We are looking to use the Palladium Sapphire Package. We would be having more than 25 guests..(more like 50) and want to do a private reception at Blue Lagoon. Does any know the additional costs for these and the menus that are served for private events?

 

Getting excited. We have been through so many ups and downs trying to choose a resort for our wedding but we PRAYING this is "the one"

Hi @@kdepass2 first off we want to say a huge congratulations on your engagement and upcoming wedding. Jamaica is such a beautiful country and the people are so wonderful. We were just recently in Runaway Bay photographing a wedding and we just know that you and your whole wedding crew are going to have such a great time.

 

Leaving you with a little wedding inspiration.

I think you'll be excited to know that I've been to this resort twice, and I never travel anywhere twice! It's absolutely wonderful! The food is amazing, the drinks are amazing, the staff is wonderful, the resort is GORGEOUS and the beaches (especially Sunset Cove) are incredible!

 

One of these times I was there for a wedding, and everything went off without problem. They got married at the gazebo but stuck with the dinner included.

 

I myself am now getting married there in November of 2018 We are opting for the private reception, it's important to us to have privacy as a group and a dance afterwards.

The blue lagoon is our choice as well! It's stunning and the views are gorgeous.

 

If there's anything you want to know about the resort, I can help! I would recommend booking everyone in the same building areas. Close to the lobby but no rooms facing the lobby, as it's quite loud at night and some guests may not be party people. We stayed in the 20 buildings and the 30 buildings. It's a massive resort so any further back is a lot of walking!

I got too excited and didn't even answer your questions, lol. We are looking at the Sapphire package too! Or the Love Pearl.

It's only covered for 30 people for the ceremony, so each additional person after 30 is $20.

 

As far as the private dinner, there are options depending on what you want, but it looks like a sit down served meal is $45 a person, none included so that's for each guest. If you have 50 or more guests, there is a buffet option!

 

If you decide to have a non private dinner, the first 30 guests are free and each additional is $20. (not a good deal at all)

Does anyone have a picture of the various private and semi private reception areas?

I'd like to compare and choose based on actual pictures...

 

Thanks,
