Hey, ya I know, I'm dying to see mine too. I emailed her again and she did finally email me back saying she was delayed due to all the storms they are having and the power being out..she said she will try to have mine out to me by next week so hopefully yours will be done in the same time frame! Let me know! Jen

I emailed her last week for an update and still haven't heard back so I will be emailing her again this morning! I'll let you know what she says! Jen

The flowers were ordered through the resort and in total i think were $230. That was by bouquet and my 9 bridesmaids flowers.There are bridal bouquets that come with the packages but i didn't like any of them so they charged me the difference. So many nice ones to choose from it was hard!

There is sooo much to choose from with so many restaurants! The food was always hot, cooked well and had tons of flavor. My fav restaurants were the italian, indian and Jamaican! The sports bar had these wicked sandwiches and the chicken nuggets tasted like the ones from McDonalds!! Hope that helps!

I was wondering if the GP offered a rehearsal diiner or cocktail party after rehearsal in the package or do they at least allow it for a seperate price? Hi, At GP for our rehersal dinner they just gave us a private section of one of the a la carte restaurants and it didn't cost anything extra!

Like I would like to have a private recp at either place but no word back...ugh. Any tricks of the trade to get them to respond? Hey, you can for sure have a private reception at the GP, the trick is the keep emailing and maybe suggest your are deciding between them and another venue and then seeing they want the business it may trigger them to respond!! Hope that helps!

I wanted something private and looks like that might work for me. thanks! We did the Carribean package and no we did not upgrade our cake that is what came with the package and it was sooo good! Yes the Gazebo is up on the cliff..called look out point and it was 100% private and the view was amazing!
  13. I'm glad that they were nice and helpful for your wedding, maybe they were just having an off day with me and hopefully everyone else will get the same level of service that you did!

  15. One complaint is that we asked for a Civil ceremony and we had some God references in the readings but we let it go. Make sure you tell Jascynthia which one you want and make sure she lets the judge/Minister know. Did you specifically tell them that you didn't want any mention of God? Or do you think we'd just need to really hammer it in when we have the civil ceremony that we really don't want any mention of that at our wedding. We said Civil and ya i said it was really important to not mention God in any of it and i guess the message didn't get across, apparently my guests told me she was holding a sign halfway through that said Civil so the minister could see it but maybe he just ignored her? Just be VERY clear to her and hopefully it will be fine. He only said it maybe 3 times to it wasn't the end of the world. The music was played through our ipod and was very good sound and they use a microphone so all the guests could here no problem. We did not get the DJ, we had 2 MC’s and our IPOD and they gave us a wireless mic and speaker, very easy to use and sound was great. The dance floor was in the hub to the left of us were we danced till 10pm and then went to party with the reggae band upstairs which were AMAZING! How did it work to have the IPOD for the ceremony - did someone just hit play and just went from there? The DJ was there and he controlled it and for the lag time he played music and had music while we were doing the signing as well. All in all the day was great, yes our wedding was delayed 45min, Did you have enough filler music for your delayed ceremony or did you not have music during the delay? As above the DJ was there and took care of it and that is included in your package for him to be there its no extra. Just make sure when Jascynthia sets your meeting that its actually with her, b/c the first time I met I got her assistant who was useless and I had a total melt down and met with Jascynthia the next day. She managed to get most things right but she isn’t the nicest of people. We think they really need to hire someone with a little more passion for weddings! Also, and I guess this is for everyone - is the resort very crowded? Are the buffets super crowded and hard to get to the food and the pools very full? When we were there it was at 52% capcity so we never had to wait in line for a la carte, buffets and had chairs for everyone by the beach and pool. It was great! If u need anything else just let me know! Jen
