Beaches Negril Photog????

Ok so i am a bit confussed about something and its a pretty big thing:

If i am getting married @ beaches negril do i have to use their photog??

Has anyone used them and how were they?

Do you know if they contract it out to local photogs and can i pick which one i choose?

Anyone have some advice on this??

thanks a million..... kg

I am getting married at Beaches Boscobel, and had the same questions. All their rules are the same. You can only use their photographers, who will remain nameless and/or portfolio-less until you arrive at your hotel right before the wedding. The only way they allow outside photographers is if you will pay for their 3-night stay at the resort.

I have debated trying to sneak a local photographer in, but will not now due to the amount pre-wedding stress it will cause. There is a thread about this on the Sandals/Couples board.

Good Luck. I am also a Beaches Bride and this photographer situation is stressing me out.

good luck with that

some resorts are really strict about that

You do not have to use the Sandals or Beaches photographer- you can bring in your own as long as they stay at the resort you are getting married at for at least 3 nights!

We decided to fly someone in becuase pictures are the most important thing to me and I could not deal with the stress of not knowing what you are getting with their photographers. Their prices are pretty high too with the different packages. I would suggest definitely doing some research on photgraphers that would be willing to do your wedding to build their portfolio. I think you might be surprised at the prices they will quote to be able to do a destination wedding. Good luck!
