They set-up a private area for my guests (we had 24 people in our wedding group) and while our wedding party was offsite taking pics, our guests were able to eat and drink in the private area. Our guests also told us that the hors d'oeuvres that were served were amazing.... they had leftovers and we got to try some of it after we got back from taking pictures offsite. More food is better than no food! I'm happy everyone was impressed with the food. Our dinner we had a choice of two items (Beef and Mahi Mahi), again the food was amazing. The food were from Sapodilla's and the chef there was A+++ We went with the Vision in White theme and i am so glad we did because it included the videographer, 12 5x7 pics, an upgraded bouquet, and the set-up was beautiful. I think the arch on the beach saved me from melting in the sun even though our ceremony was at 4pm.... LOLOLOL! Overall, we are soooooo happy that we went with a DW. Hey Winnie! Glad your DW was exactly what you and wanted, and maybe a lil better May 20 is fast approaching and I am a getting nervous. I only did a quick cocktail hour but did get a calaypso band for some added fun! There are only 11 of us in total. I have heard 2 different answers on wether or not I can make reservation later at one of the resteraunts for all of us to have dinner together since my ceremony will be at 12 noon, can anyone lead me in the right direction.......

I've been dealing with Monica and yes, sometimes she can take a long time to respond, etc but like Maureen said, she's dealing with alot of weddings per day and i'm sure she has alot on her plate! For our first meeting, i created a list of questions for her and emailed it to her a week before our phone meeting. Of course, day of the meeting, she told me she didn't get a chance to review the questions and notes. That's ok, because i sat on the phone with her for almost an hour and went through every single detail. After the conversation, she emailed me back my notes with her responses and that was great as i had everything documented. My advice would be to keep following-up with her and be patient. Also, i didn't find her pushy at all but maybe i knew what i wanted so she didn't really have to "sell" me on anything. She gave me the cost and i went back to do my own cost analysis and then made a decision. Hope this helps! Hey Winnie, I am getting married at Beaches T&C on May 20, when is your big day? I can't believe it is only 40 days away....... How has your planning coming along?

Hey! My name is Scilla, and I am having a destination wedding in Turks and Caicos in May 2010! 40 days left til I do! We are having our wedding at Beaches Resort....... Sil
