Oops, that was supposed to be in reply to Kristo's post about vendor fees! I'm new! lol!

That's so smart! I'm getting married Dec 6/12 and booked Merrick Cousley as my photographer. He's going to be staying at the resort and as one of our guests, we should be able to avoid the vendor fee! Fingers crossed they don't give us too much trouble about it! Our wedding has been booked since March, and if the vendor fees don't come into effect until August then hopefully it should be a non issue anyway since we booked before they instituted vendor fees. But I called the GBP yesterday and talked to Donna Lee, and she was pretty adamant that everyone from this point on would have to pay vendor fees, so who knows.

Hi! I need to get in touch with you! I just read through everything you posted, it's so detailed and perfect! I'm from Alberta too (Edmonton), and we are getting married at GBP in the beginning of December! I have so many questions! We were offered the gazebo as a place for a dance following dinner, would you recommend this? Did you enjoy the disco as an alternative? Where did you have your dinner? Was it semi private or did you rent out an entire restaurant? Were you still able to have speeches/a slideshow/etc? Was it strange having other diners nearby? Did you like the decor that the resort arranged for you? I would LOVE to hear from you! Email is easiest for me; kavadreams@hotmail.com Hope to talk to you soon! Chelsea
