I don't believe that's an option but am not totally positive.

I attend the webinar today and they said you can do it in the buffet but it would not be private or closed to other guests and you cannot have music there.

Yeah I attended too. I am happy this is n option though, iiif the budget needs to be cut

I am totally lost... what is this webinar you guys are talking about. I have had zero contact from the resort, and they are not getting in touch with my email. I tried calling them to speak to someone, and everytime I am getting transferred through different numbers.. then they all of a sudden hang up on me. I have tried litterally 3 times to get through, and before i make bad decisions of what I really wanted to tell them I gave up.

 

So any info on this webinar guys would be much appreciated. I am totally getting tossed around here.. So annoyed....

The webinar was held on Satuday by Tammy the host of this site with Daniela from the resort and Pilar from Jade.  I think Tammy was recording it and going to post it somewhere on here. Basically, it went through the packages and different ceremony site locations, etc.

 

She and Tammy both did discuss how they prioritize and that the weddings that are closer in date get priority, etc and they typically don't need to start planning flowers, etc until a month or less out.

 

Trust me, I understand your pain. I'm leaving in 2 weeks and still don't have any clue! ha

Hi everyone...the more I research both NOW Jade and NOW Sapphire, the more I'm leaning towards Sapphire. I like the ceremony and reception locations better I think. Has anyone been to both resorts and can offer your perspective? Is anyone having their ceremony on the "beach deck"? I'd rather NOT get married in the sand, I know I know...I'm at a beach...but I want to wear cute shoes!

 

annkho - I sent them an email and it took them a couple days before sending the wedding package info. I asked about available dates and still nothing...I'm hoping my travel agent has better luck! I'm at a computer all day so it's hard not to get antsy!!

 

avong1228 - I hope you don't mind that I took a peek at your website, it's awesome! I love the style of it..what service did you use? That's one of the next things on our list to do...

hi there-

 

i am actually getting married at the now sapphire on february 19, 2011.  we actually haven't been there before but our best friends went there on their honeymoon and they loved it and we have some other friends who have been there before also and loved it.  i really didn't look into the now jade too much because once i saw the now sapphire (which was paradisus at the time we started looking) i just fell in love with the overall look of the resort, it has sort of a spanish feel to it which i really liked.  we are getting married on the beach and then having our cocktail hour and reception on the beach terrace (so i can switch into my cute shoes! ha!).  

 

good luck with all your planning!

February is supposed to be perfect weather there...I wish I could say that for October, which is when we're looking. I'll be praying to the weather gods for the next year!!! How many people are you expecting at your wedding? 

[jystar13]

we are excited to be getting married in february, it will be a nice little break from the cold weather in new jersey for our family and friends.  so far we have about 34 people booked including my fiance and i but we are expecting a few more to be booking, so we are guessing around 50 people or so which is a pretty good number.  it will be here before we know it i am so excited!
