Woohoo...thanks for the Dollar Store Link. I LOVE that place! Should have bought stock in that company years ago, as I see them popping up all over the place in this recession.
I am planning to marry at the Grand Palladium Jamaica next summer, so this detailed review is extremely helpful. I still don't understand why all the mixed reviews about GPJ?
Congrats to the new Mrs. Zuzelh!!
Thanks so much for your review. As you saw most of us were out here in no man's land as to what was going on at the resort when it came to weddings these days.
Your wedding sounds awesome. I really like your ideas about the vow renewal and the steel band playing at the reception as opposed to the ceremony. I hadn't thought of that before.

I'm in the same boat as both of you. I've emailed the wedding coordinator directly and I even sent an email request through the Fiesta Group web-page. Haven't heard a thing from anyone. I've decided I am going to have to get a calling card and start calling the resort directly. This is not a good sign though.
Look at the Grand Palladium in Jamaica. It's a big resort (not hotel tower style), kid friendly and very new (I think less than 3 years old). That is where I am heading.
jh17,
Thanks again for passing along all your info to the rest of us. Question, did you or your guests leave the resort much during your stay? If so, did folks venture to Montego Bay or Negril? Is it really about 45mins to get to either place?
Thanks for the link cgrant32. I am glad to hear you have received your written confirmation! Happy planning awaits you. I am still waiting on a response.
