Hi, i'm getting married at The Royal May 16...my rehearsal dinner is being held two nights before at an amazing restaurant called Negro Sal which is right up the street (off of 5th) from the resort...it's so beautiful and romantic...we're pretty much taking over half of the restaurant as there are 40 people coming for that dinner. The chef came up with a condensed menu for us as well as a special drink menu.
As for deposits, I paid the $300 some time ago and am sending in 50% before the end of the month.
