Default RMB is Open!!

The Riu Montego Bay opened today! They were delayed one day due to the airports being closed for Gustav, but the resort opens for guests today. Hopefullly soon we will have pics and reviews.

I feel like the hotel cheerleader, but I know there are other RMB brides that would like to know.

That's great! Can't wait to see pictures. I have a friend leaving Wednesday for a wedding at the ROR on Saturday Sept 5th. I asked her to take pictures of the RMB. If she does I will post them.

Thank you for the post. I am anxiously awaiting photos (especially of the beach area and the gazebo-if RMB has one). On the website, RMB doesn't offer extras (like a DJ) so I sent an email to the coordinator to inquire.

Indigo,

I'd love to hear about any info you get fromthe RMB WC. I haven't written them yet, so I'd love to see it. I did hear from the front desk and ask for a resort map They said they could fax it, but I don't have a fax machine.

Lilpaisley,

My communication thus far has been with Diana. She sent me four documents yesterday in regards to questions I had. I have attached them below. I sent an email to the wedding coordinator, Keneika, to request pics of the Gazebo and Beach area in which weddings are held. Diana has asked that I be patient with Keneika because she has taken on additional duties with the new hotel opening.

I was pleased to see that RMB has a dance club and it appears as if they may offer additional services (i.e. DJ services and chair covers with bows, etc). I will confirm with Keneika. I want to check with Keneika also to see if True Colors is the photographer for RMB and if Boulevard Florist is the florist for RMB.

Since the time is quickly approaching I have so many questions. I would like to have everything planned and ready to go at least 1 month before the actual day so I can sit back and enjoy the fun during the wedding.
