I am talking to my planner about the same thing at the Grand as far as the aisle it is short and she said at pretty much all three resorts the aisles are short distance but I asked her about how far the walk is where we are coming from to the aisle. My mom is giving me away and we are walking down to Carrie Underwood's Mama's Song so I want the full song to play. As for my bridesmaids and groomsmen coming down the aisle I am going to have to cut the music at a certain point as well. So the aisles are short but you may want to ask them how far it is from where you are coming from because when I just asked about the aisle she sent me pictures of aisles on the beach from all three properties but that did not help me much so I had to ask a different way. Hope this helps. Congratulations.

Okay thanks I am doing that tomorrow because apparently she books up fast but she is awesome.

I have a question because I am booking Rashel for my wedding. How did they say you had to pay your deposit because she told me to moneygram or western union it to her. I have heard great things about her so I definitely believe she is legit I just want to make sure that is how she takes her payments for the deposit normally. Thanks

We are not getting married in 2013 but we are booked for April 5, 2014 at Iberostar Grand Rose Hall. We are so excited. The wedding planning has already begun since we have the date locked in.

Does anyone know where I could find two tone dresses where one color fades into another. I saw picture online and was going to post it but can't find it anymore but mostly all I am seeing is a color at the top of the dress and another color at the bottom of the dress. I want one color to fade into the other one. Please tell me someone knows where to find them.

Thank you so much I have already enjoyed some helpful hints that's taking some of the stress away lol

Sorry posted wrong place. Welcome and congratulations.

Hey everyone my name is Kenyatta and me and my fiance are getting married on April 5, 2014 in Jamaica at Iberostar Grand rose hall. I am so happy that everyone is so helpful. Congratulations to everybody.

Hello everyone my name is Kenyatta Moore me and my fiance are getting married April 5, 2014 in Jamaica at Iberostar Grand rose hall. I have already found that everyone is so helpful. I am glad because I need all the help and advice that I can get. lol

AWESOME!!! Thank you thank you thank you. I am soooooo lost. lol

Okay I am breathing lol I have the vision of exactly what I want I guess I just got side tracked with paper lanterns and the talk about cocktail hours, bonfires, contacting florists I think it just got to be so overwhelming. I am happy that i found this forum because it is helping already. We are pretty much going to have a little over twenty or so people but I still want to be able to have that reception dinner as well. Thank you so much for the advice you have put things into perspective for me and I appreciate that. I was freaking out. Thank you so much.

Oh my gosh 100? Uh yeah no I know we won't have that many. lol We are inviting 37-40 but will probably not have that many come possibly about 24. So they won't let you do a private reception if you don't have the minimum people? Or can you just not do the renting of the resturant for the private reception without the minumum? I can bet you are definitely overwhelmed not much longer to go but congratulations. I really want that private reception for the first dance and the speeches and just the private time with the family. If I can't have that I think that will take away from making it a whole. Thanks for the info.

Thank you so much Cherina

I am new to the forum and I have been doing a lot of reading on this site and it has now taken my idea of what I thought was going to be an easy task and turned it into a I don't know where to start nightmare. Everyone is talking about different packages, receptions, cocktail hours and decorations. I thought when we started planning a destination wedding it was going to be less stressful than planning a wedding at home. I don't know where to start I have looked at the packages the WC sent me from the Grand but I see everyone talking about different photographers, bringing in decorations contacting the florists, having cocktail hours and I don't know where to start. Where did some of you start when you started planning? How do you plan this beautiful day and keep your sanity all at the same time while making sure you are happy and your guests are to? Do you provide decorations or does the resort, what package did you choose, was the cocktail hour worth it, should you have a private reception or just a dinner? So many questions can someone PLEASE HELP ME figure this out?

That's awesome Congratulations.

Okay so I have over a year to plan this wedding and from reading all of the posts it just all seems so overwhelming. Decorations, music, to do a private reception or not to do a private reception. I don't know where to start. We confirmed the wedding date already and have started looking over the different prices but with reading so much I am now not sure what to ask or which way to turn. I don't know why I thought this was going to be so easy. So some helpful hints where do you start what were your first questions for the wedding coordinator? I have a vision in my mind but all these choices and the different prices for one thing then others I just feel so confused. I have no clue where to start can someone give me some helpful hints.

That was an awesome journal and it scared me to think that this is going to be so much harder than I thought it was going to be. I love the creativity and it's giving me so many ideas but I am only creative when it comes to music. Now I am scared that I have not put a lot of thought into this. Not enough at least. How did you keep your sanity it seems like you had a lot of work to do?

Maybe I am lost but I keep seeing free ceremony but the paperwork I have says 3000 and 2800 one is for legal and the other one is not legal. What is the free wedding ceremony exactly?

I was wondering about the make up as well to Tgreen. I just started talking to Syrecka a couple of days ago who I guess is the assistant to Janielle and she sent me all of this paper work and it all seems so extra expensive. However, I think I am just overwhelmed with everything. I was looking at pictures of someone who had make up done there but I was wondering if they used her makeup or they used their own. I want a soft natural look on my day and the air brushed make up does that really well.
