Ocean Blue & Sand-Punta Cana
ambeato replied to SabBrew's topic in Destination Weddings in Dominican Republic
Alm0411, I would recommend for you to call the hotel and ask to speak to a manager. because Julissa said that was not going to be a problem and now because she's gone they want to change things... that i not fare.. -

Alm0411, I feel your pain.... Look I ended up writing a long email to Ada and I CC everyone else in the hotel that I have come across including the Sales Manager. Because 1. Ada was charging me much more, and then she told me that if I had the email where Julissa gave me the prices for the cocktail food she will honor the same price. So I sent her the email, and then she had audacity to say that the prices that Julissa had promised had changed at the beginning of the year and no longer were available. So then I replied back saying that 1. If the prices had changed at the beginning of the year the date of the email that Julissa had sent me was at the end of January so if they had changed I was sure Julissa would've not offered those prices. 2. Those prices had to be available because she already had said that if I forwarded that email she will honor it. So since she was not planning on keeping her word I wrote a long emails explaining how dissatisfy I was with her service. Because everything I had asked her is a “no†it can’t be done or its too expensive. I went on to say that I had a very present experience with Julissa and she was the total opposite. I told her that it’s already hard enough planning a wedding from a different country and if she as my wedding Coordinator couldn’t help alleviate the stress then I wanted to work with someone else. Ada replied apologizing, and saying that she will honor all the prices that Julissa had given me, but also saying that the other wedding coordinator would give me the same service because the new girl is working underneath her. . So in other words saying that whatever she says goes... I haven't emailed her back and it’s been like 3 weeks because I’m waiting for her to leave so I don't have to deal with her. I can’t stand her... plus I’m not going to drive myself crazy right now because I’m still waiting for all the rsvp to arrives to really know how many guest are going to the wedding. So I’m not going to waste my time if I still don’t have a final count. But trust me it has not been a walk in the park working with ADA... Btw I’m having a bit of a big wedding. Most of our guest are flying to DR and so far I have about 50 guest and there are still a lot more that haven’t sent the card that I know are going. -

OMG Alm0411, I feel your pain. I'm on the same boat as you are... I have spoken to 2 WC coordinator since i started to plan my wedding. Now the first WC i had which was Julissa was GREAT... i loved her, but now i have Ada which i cant wait til she leaves because she makes everything so much harder and complicated. she has given me different prices for everything. after a few back and forth email she said that she will honor everything Julissa gave me. But I'm so over Ada that I'm just waiting for her to leave on maternity leave because i can not even talk to her. -

OK so I’m back from my trip. I was actually staying at the MeliaCaribe Resort because my best friend was getting married there. However I took the opportunity to go to Ocean Blue and Sand since that's where I'm getting married in February with God willing. Ok so here it goes the good and the bad, 1. I actually really liked the hotel. My fiancé actually liked MeliaCaribe a little better only because Melia is a more luxurious resort BUT Ocean Blue is more family oriented resort. Plus is a smaller hotel considering that it only has about 700rooms. SO it’s perfect for us. 2. I had a meeting schedule with my WC which when I arrived at the hotel was told that she has left, which didn't make sense to me since we were schedule for a meeting. well I found out that it was her last day there and that ADA would be my new coordinator however just to let you ladies know Ada is pregnant and is due in November so the WC for the day of my wedding is still unknown. . I thought I had attached the ocean blue pictures on my USB but I didn’t. But I promise when I get home I will post the pictures. I hope this helps a little if anyone has any questions please let me know. -
