Hi Asha, Our ceremony started at 4:30...even later than that cause we were late Dance started around 8:30. So you will have more than enough time Jennifer

No I had a makeup trial done at the shoppers beauty boutique and then purchased all the items and did my own.

- mammajuana - very delish! Combination of bark, red wine, rum, and honey. You will do many of these shots thought your stay! - majestic drink - also delish. Tastes like an orange creamsicle - presidente beer from Dominican - yes to leaving couple of bucks in fridge. It is restocked daily. - brushing teeth : I brushed with tap water... No big deal - snack bar - good food when you've been drinking all night. Funny to see kittens running all over the place when you are sober...lol! - casino...very crappy. Does not even compare - coco's night cub - closes at 4 I believe - shows every night in theatre, with exception of the night the beach party - there are basketball/tennis courts but wayyyy to hot...direct sun - water sports are included - they do enforce dress code Also...there is a market near the resort 5 mins down the road by walking. If you ask the bell man to call one of his friends, they will arrange transport for you and bring you right to their friends shop (Edgar #61) and no one else will haggle you! Totally worth it

We travelled with Air Transat and they were free, as well as a separate bag of "sports equipment" that we brought all our snorkelling gear in. Just check out your travel company online and they will have what you can bring

H Hi Vanessa, We did several excursions while we were there... - Razr side by side - there are two different trips, one along the beach and one that goes to an underground cave that you caN swim in - Saona island (highly recommend!) - shopping trip to San Juan shopping centre for the ladies - reef explorer (loved this!) - and we also rented a private van to drive us to santo Domingo for the day. Amazing experience! Have fun!

Hi there. I just returned from Punta Cana. We stayed one week at the Colonial, and then one week at the Elegance. When we checked in for our second week at the Elegance, they allowed us to keep our wristbands for the Colonial so that we could use both sides. Your guests who choose to stay at the Colonial side will not be able to come to the Elegance side tho . All of us that stayed at both resorts much preferred the food and atmosphere of the Colonial, and most days would return to the colonial for lunch as their buffets are much better. The rooms are a little nicer at the Elegance, but if I had my time back we would have stayed both weeks at the colonial. Hope that helps

Hi ladies, I just got home from Punta Cana. My wedding took place on March 10, 2013. It was amazing. Everyone loved the JF and said it was the best wedding they had EVER been to. If Anyone has specific questions about the place let me know while its fresh in my memory.

Hi Ana, Jellyfish was a bit more expensive than the resort (Majestic Colonial). But the resort did 4 weddings per day, and looked all cookie cutter. You will absolutely not be disappointed with JF. It is 100% worth the extra money

We are staying at Majestic Colonial for one week and then Majestic Elegance for one week. My meeting is on the 7th And also does anyone know what credit card you can pay with? I have heard that you can pay mastercard up to $1000 and then AMEX unlimited....but the only one Mayte mentioned was AMEX. Thanks!

Hello everyone, So I leave for DR in 5 days!!! I am just doing some last minute budgeting and trying to figure out who and how much people will be tipping? Any direction is greatly appreciated!

Has anyone tried the spray tanning at the resort? If so, what are your thoughts?

Hi ladies!! I just have a few more questions... What bar option is everyone going with? I am having trouble deciding on this...don't know if it would be better to do a tab as there are several guests that don't drink alcohol. Does anyone know how much they charge for water, juice, and pop? And also, for brides that have already been there: what appetizers are a must have, and which ones could you do without? Thanks ladies.

That's very exciting! Less than 2 months to go now. I received my quote from Mayte today. Kristine could you please email to me? My email is [email protected] Thank you!!

And now for a monetary question... What have people decided on for tipping? I have no clue and need some direction so I don't screw it up and offend someone.

Happy New Year brides! My wedding is fast approaching...2 months to go! Wondering if anyone has come up with an itinerary for the day for those brides that will be doing both the ceremony and reception at the Jellyfish Restaurant. My ceremony starts at 4:30 and I'm just wondering how to plan the evening out. Thanks!
