Hi everyone! I've been reading this post for months for info. but have never posted before. I will be getting married at Grand Palladium Bavaro on May,25 2013. We are having about 70 adults and another 7 kids. We were seriously considering doing a private dinner and a beach party but all the paperwork is so unclear as to how exactly that adds up. The private room is for around 5 hours but the dj and/or band are 3 hour sessions each and then the beach party is 3 hours. Does that mean we would have to cut the private reception short to move to the beach? What has everyone done or what are you guys planning to do? If all 77 of us want a semi-private dinner is it possible for us to do that or are we too many? Also, is there a microphone setup in the semi private dinner at least for speeches?
