The basic Chuppa/Beach set up they have is still nice. It looks like a white metal arch, with one floral arrangement. The Gazebo is also free to use, you only pay additional for "extra" decorations...

Sorry I don't have the photos here (I can't access my photobucket) but will post some later if you'd like.

Paying extra for anything these days, is seeming less and less necessary to me! I think the backdrop of the Caribbean is going to be so beautiful...I am feeling less urgent to change that!

There are a few in our group also, with concerns. We are going to promote activities near or on the resort property, and just emphasize using common sense and caution in less familiar areas. It's all you can do. There really aren't many reasons you'd WANT to leave the Royal property anyway...so...we're just going to boast that! It's a hotel you relax at, heck you're paying for it, so...enjoy it!

Good luck with the rest of your planning and...wow...one more month!!!! How exciting!

Tati--So sorry...I've been catching up on posts!! It would be great to get together! We arrive on th 13th.

 

Caracolgin--I noticed your wedding is also around the same date as ours? When are you arriving?

[Roahrig]

Thanks Shay!! That would be great! I asked about switching to the Gazebo, but it was already booked

 

I am totally with you on the paying extra thing. You would think with all the money we are already spending with them, they could throw in a few things!

 

I'll post some pictures later with what I've been up to!

 

Thanks again!

Brooke

Why the disparity??

I'd like an answer to this as well. My WC - Paty - booked a DJ for me but didn't tell me who, just that it was $1000. I just asked who the DJ was and she informed me it was Doremixx. The disparity doesn't make sense.

ETA: Has anyone else booked Doremixx? Curious how they compare (service wise) to Mannia.

Thanks Steph. Believe me it didn't look like that a few months ago! And it looks like I may be able to use my prize for my wedding

Oh, THANK YOU, Shay! I've been dying for some new pics of our wedding site. I think that may have satisfied me, for now anyway! LOL *sigh* Another gorgeous wedding!

here is what I found

They both seem to have good reviews. I may just chance it and book thru them and pay the vendor fee.
