There's a Walmart not even 20 minutes from the hotel. You could buy the ipod equipment....and return it after the wedding for a full refund

Easy to work with: not really. I got Emma and she tried to charge me almost double of what was previously agreed with the previous wedding planners. My suggestion: get everything in writting (email) and bring copies with you. And for some reason there is no supervisor> Her excuse, "he's currently in Russia for business"- Yeah right. For the DJ, we also gave a DJ we love a list of songs and he mixed them for us on CD. It was perfect! We got married Sept. 10th 2011. We got our reception at la fondue and the tropical fruit cake. Everything was delicious. except the wine and champagne-yurk! They tend to get back to you when your wedding is close. You can make some of the final arrangements when you get there-except for the welcome supper which has to be setupin advance if you want one. Thank God the restof our vacation went prefectly besides the wedding planning issues, the resort is absolutely magnificent.

Hi VancityBride, If you're there a few days before your wedding, go to the club they have there, it's the same DJ. He's gonna play basically what he plays in the club at the wedding. He's also the technician if you decide to on ly get the equipement. At our wedding we had my brother in law taking care if the music using his computer. The best man did his speech during the reception with the cordless microphone provided with the audio equipment. For the ceremony the miusic is loud enough for the guests to hear the music and you can bring your own music. U can have background music if you like during the whole ceremony Hope this helps : )

Ladies, I absolutely love your pics!! Just got mine from our photographer. you can check them out at www.doleyres.com

hi kasiab I guess she forgot totell you that u also need a technician 50$+tx. If you want to use the audio system inthe gala room it's 125-126$ instead of 600$ if it's on the beach

Hey ladies Finally back from my wedding at GSP and let me tell you, Emma doesn't know what she's talking about. I knew her price list better than she did. My wedding would have been a nightmare if it wasn't for 3 of my friends. She gives general explanation, no details, she was trying to charge 600$ me for the CD player at the ceremony. She refused to allow us on the beach for a semi-private unless I took the bar for 2 hours (25$ per person even though the site claims it's 10 or 15$ per person). She didn't even ask for our marriage licence since we got married in Canada first. They basically tell you yes,yes,yes when you befor you get there and then it's: No, you never confirmed with me. Ladies keep your e-mail, I'd even suggest to print them out and bring them with u when u get there. The wedding itself was wonderful, since none of the guests knew how the ceremony and reception were suppose to be, it was pretty transparent to them. But I"m pretty sure Emma willnot last long as their WP.

My wedding is on Sept 10th! And we're now considering getting a DJ. I'm waiting for priciing and infos regarding everything. hopefully Emma replies today. I,ll pm u as soon as I get the info Kasiab

By the way congrats on the baby! : )

Barbara J'adore absolument tout!! Everything is wonderful! You thought of everything! A+

Elizabeth no longer works there. Emma is my 3rd WP!!! An my wedding is in less than 2 weeks. You can use the same e-mail address you had for Elizabeth, it still works. I think they're going by WD (wedding date). Emma emailed me 5-6 times already in 4days. She's pretty quick.

Yeah.. Elizabeth is gone. Emma is the new WP. She's very good!

You were right!! I was stressed out for nothing. My new WO seems to be better than the previous one. Thanks Hdinsmor : )

The countdown has begin!! 11 days left and ... got a new WP !! And remember ladies: RELAX

I'm freaking out!! My wedding is in 15 days and my WC is not answering my e-mails! I jujst hope and pray they're not once again changing my WC when my wedding is so close.

Thank you so much for the quick reply : )

Hi Justiner Would you mind sending me a copy of your welcome letter please? My email is [email protected]. Thanks a bunch!

Hi hdinsmor The guest book you're talking about is available at theknot. com . They have the package where it comes with the new and improved polaroid (and film for 75 guests if my memory serves me right) and the blank page guestbook Or just the blank page guest book . I think they have a whole bunch of different colors. Hope this helps : )

HI Vancity I thought the day pas was suppose to be 85$ per person not staying at the resort? It's weird I have Elizabeth as WP and the prices she gives me are not the price listed on their price sheet. She's trying to charge be 12.50$/person per HOUR for the domestic bar while it states on the list it's 10$ flat per person. I don't know what to do now since it's double the budget we have for the bar. Any suggestions?

hi Hdinsmor I did just that myself. We got married at the courthouse last week. So that way all our papers are here in Canada, when we need a copy we can get it in a couple of days instead of weeks from the caribbean. And I wore my wedding dress at the courthouse. I even saw some couples with flower girls, stretched limo and the whole shabang. Afterwards we had a coktail hour at our house. We kept it secret and simple (we were a total of 20 people). Basically you'll have a vow renewal ceremony in the caribbean ( no worry no one will even suspect it's not a "real"wedding) Hope this helps

Amazing!! Going to the fabric store on my lunch time!! Can't wait to start tonight. If it turns out great, i'll post some pics!!

Hi Natyb I'd like to see the gazebo pictures you took if you don't mind. My email is: [email protected] . I've heard the Chill out restaurant is very good and private. Not alot of bad reviews food wise Quote: Originally Posted by natyb Hi Ladies.. This whole planning thing is soo new to me but I am more than extatic that I have found this forum. I just wanted to let everyone know that I just came back from GSP as my fiance realized I was having reservations about the resort (or a destination wedding period) and surprised me and took me there last week. It was beautiful and I was able to talk to the wedding coordinator (elizabeth) who was so wonderful and professional. There are two Gazebos to be married at: one is in the middle of the beach with all your speedo baring bystanders OR the other gazebo is at the far end of the property on the beach in the "CHill out" (formerly Thai beach club). This gazebo is SUPER private as guests need to pay to be in the beach club (and have to be gone by 530). While I was there, I saw 3 weddings. We have decided to have the private beach party at the chill out, but was wondering if anyone had eaten there... and what the food was like?? I ate at all the restaurants while I was there except for La Fleur, so if you have any questions let me know. I also have pictures from the gazebos (BOTH) ... Not decorated, if you'd like me to send them. There's soooo much to do!!!!

Good day ladies!! Congrats to all of you. Regarding the storage bin, it is only available when you're in the first class section. However, if you're booking through a TA, they should normally offer to the futur bride and groom FREE upgrade to first class round trip since you're booking a group vacation. I ahve a group of 29 people and was offered by Sunwing this upgrade among other thing (11th persons gets a free ticket, seat reservation so the group sits in the same area, bride and groom allowed up to 30kg for our bagage instead of 20kg) The TA gets approx 25-50$ per ticket sold, so bargain what you want and need!! Hope this helps!

Booboo First: your dress look amazing!!! Second: Yes you'll be sweating regardless (sorry girl) I wore one of my wedding dresses for my civil wedding in Montreal and I was sweating (my dress was the same shape as yours). I was actually sweating from my waist down which is normal since there's more fabric form the waist down.

Hey ladies, I still have to find the MOH's dress ( i know,iknow 7weeks from the wedding), get my shoes, confirm outfit for my son/ringbearer, order the favors and complete the OOT bag for my special ladies (mom,mother in law,sister and sisters from another mother!!). Happy planning!

Ladies : Chillax! lol! Everything will turn out great. Subbi as Caboose suggested, call them directly. They answer right away. PS at my hotel they've sent me a message that I have a new WC!! @ months from my wedding date. Her first request: please send me back all your choices, we've lost your previous request!!!.
