Hi Kimberli, I just found your thread and I looove everything you've done!!! Your travel packets are amazing. Is there any way you could tell me how you made your newsletter and where you got your map of Iberostar and the Jamaica guide? If it's easier you can email me at [email protected]. Thanks!!!!

I asked and she just said if it's in the contract, there's nothing she can do about it. Maybe I need a new TA....

We have a couple kids coming too....flowergirl, ring bearer and some other neices and nephews, so I guess it wouldn't matter if we had the wedding at the Grand. I know most of our guests won't want to pay to stay at the Grand. They've all said they'll be staying at the Suites, some have already booked. I called the Grand and my original date of November 30 isn't available, but December 1 is. I'm just waiting for the wedding coordinator to email me back to discuss everything. Ughhh! It's the same way with the Beach resort. I write paragraph after paragraph only to get one word answers. It's very frustrating! Also, we're from Philadelphia too

Oh, you're right! I read it again and it says every extra guest is $18. Me too! And the communication between the wedding coordinator is horrible. Sometimes I don't get a response for days. Hmmm.....that's interesting. So, all of my guests could stay at the Suites if I had my wedding at the Grand? Are you getting married at the Grand?

The suites is completely booked up! It's a different $18....a resort fee for guests not staying at the Beach. That's what I thought too, but apparently it's different for a wedding?

I checked the Suites and they're completely booked up! Oh really? I guess they're so in demand that if you don't want to pay the fees, someone else will. I didn't know that about the Grand! That is so crazy! And I thought having a destination wedding would be less stressful...hahaha!

Hi everyone, I'm new here and recently booked my wedding date at Iberostar Rose Hall Beach. I found a travel agent and she told me that we could stay at the Suites without any of the guests incurring a fee. So, I told my guests in their save the dates that they could choose between the Suites and the Beach. All of them chose the Suites. Well, I received the wedding agreement yesterday and it says that anyone staying at the Suites will have to pay an $18 fee to come to the wedding. I showed the travel agent the agreement and now she says everyone will need to pay the fee and on top of that, it says 80% of the guests will need to be staying at the Beach Resort. Ughhh! I don't know what to do! Is there any way to get them to waive the fee and take the part about the 80% out of the agreement? Has anyone else gone through this? Should I just start looking for a new venue?

I can finally add my date! We're confirmed for November 30, 2012 at the Beach!
