I came across this idea on Etsy and even though my wedding in Jamaica was last year, this is a great idea! Here's the listing. Jamaica Starfish Word Art These are starfish images that can be customized with bride & groom names, location, date, etc. I wish I had seen this for my Save the Dates!

Hi Ladies, I got married last April and I was looking for something custom to give my guests who traveled with me to Jamaica for my wedding. I wish I found this earlier! But I wanted to share in case anyone else can take advantage of this awesome idea! It's a word art print in the shape of a starfish (my theme!) that can be customized with your wedding words and wedding colors. I hope this can help someone else out! I will definitely be getting one for my husband and I http://www.etsy.com/listing/72396308/8x10-word-art-print-jamaica-starfish

This was something that I stressed about too before flying and I didn't have to at all! I flew American Airlines with my bright pink wedding dress bag and everyone was more than helpful to accomodate the garment bag. I had 4 flights (total round trip) and each time the flight attendant checking tickets noticed the dress and pointed me to the closet right when you get on the plane. Also for those ladies looking for a garment bag for wedding dresses, I got mine on Amazon. They have a number of different colors!

We just got back from our wedding at Sandals Negril and I have to say that we are SO glad we did the 2 hour private reception dinner. We had a large group (34) so getting a table at the restaurant wasn't even an option. The staff did such an amazing job and I dare say that the food was even better than what you would get in the restaurant. The only thing that we added was the lantern decor from the Flutter of Romance package and we're so glad we did! It was beautiful. Check out the pics here Let me know if you have any questions!

We had ours at 6pm at Sandals Negril and it was PERFECT. Once everyone was settled in, had drinks, etc. we had the most beautiful sunset. Let me know if you have any other questions about it. I literally just got back this morning so I'm working on posting a review and pictures.

I did see some different pictures of the themes over at the Sandals fan page on Facebook. Log In | Facebook

I'm sure this probably isn't what you want to hear, but my experience with the WC (a different one) was exactly what you describe... Until about 5 weeks before the wedding (I'm 3 weeks away now). Once it's close it comes on their radar and then they're calling YOU for information! My guess is that there are so many weddings that the WC's are assigned to that they spend the time responding to the brides with closer wedding dates. Annoying.

I've been so frustrated about the bouquet options for weeks now! My wedding is just about a month away and I finally heard from my WC that I could order one of the bouquets from the themes. I choose Flutter of Romance and the bouquet will cost $175. I guess I'm happy with this for now especially since I don't have any other option!!!

Does anyone know if the $15 pp value of the 30 min. cocktail reception can be applied to the 1 hour cocktail reception? I'm eligible for the group wedding and we don't want to go for the 3-hour reception, but would consider upgrading to the 1 hour cocktail.

Love the photos! Thanks so much for posting them! What time was your ceremony at? Mine will be at 4pm on April 3rd in Negril.

Are they planning to add more a la carte options? We were planning to get the Signature Package, but it's not available anymore. I still want my single entertainer for one hour, is it still possible?

I would love to hear more about this too if anyone has any info! Especially the Horseback Riding...

We stayed in the level you've booked and the balcony is HUGE and awesome! The planes overhead aren't bad and all and the best part is that the ride from the airport is around 5 minutes! You'll be on the beach in no time

Thanks for the info! So helpful!!
