2013 Iberostar Rose Hall Suites Brides

Hi, All!

I got my confirmation today: April 6, 2013!  So I thought I would start a thread for all of us 2013 Iberostar Jamaica brides! 

I will update this when I have more information/when we book everything, but the following are my details/thoughts:

Date: April 6, 2013

Time: 5pm

Hotel: Iberostar Rose Hall Suites

Ceremony Location: Beach

Cocktail Hour: We are thinking of using the lazy river island, having 6 appetizers, and an international open bar.  6-7pm.  We are also thinking we will get one of the bands to play during this. 

Reception Type: Private.

Reception Location: We are thinking Aunt Ruby, but not sure if it will be too hot.  I am not fond of the menus at the other restaurants. 

Reception Time: 7-10:30pm

Music: DJ

Photographer: ??

Videographer: ??

Travel Coordinator: Ellen Paderson from Smiles and Miles Travel, Inc. 

Guest Amount: ?? Probably 50. 

Questions I have:

1) Has anyone found out if we can do anything after 10:30pm?  I would really like to do a bonfire on the beach or something on the beach, but I think they don't let you do anything after 10:30pm that is private... Anyone know? 

2) Does anyone have any experience with Aunt Ruby?  Do they think it will be too hot for a private reception from 7-10:30pm.  Also, is there room to dance?   

Don't forget to add your date to the roll call: http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/t/70055/iberostar-rose-hall-and-suites-roll-call

And, make sure to check the huge Iberostar Rose Hall forum for answers to any questions (although we can post 2013 relevant questions here): http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/t/34054/iberostar-rose-hall-brides-post-all-info-questions-here

Happy planning!
