Married and truly Blessed!!!

Those pics are gorgeous Mich! Was the ceremony outside an added cost? Do you mind me asking how much that cost?

 

Also did you have family there? How many people were there and how many came from outside the resort?

 

Thanks!

Thanks girl!
The ceremony was at the garden gazebo - no charge and the right after was the horderves - $10/pp. The reception was at the Plantation - 4hrs/$1000.

Lots and lots of family. Both sides are Jamaican so we had people from JA and abroad. We had about 80 - 90 people and quite a few not staying at the resort. At least 35 but I think it was quite a bit more than that. I just gave Chandlyn the list of names. Make sure you have that ready for your meeting. She doesn't have a problem but she needs to give security first/last names of all guests coming onto the resort. I was also concerned about the 80-20 rule but I guess once you're paying the $50/pp, they don't seem to mind.

Thanks for reminding me about that.....i need to make my list up over the weekend. The problem is......is that my family members are bringing guest and I don't know their guest names. Will the resort still let them in if i just put my family members name plus 1 or 2 guests?

Good question. That one wasn't an issue for me. That was my way of trying to keep the numbers down. I told them if they're bringing someone I need to know or they won't get past the gate.

I would maybe put +1 (or 2) or the "Wilson" family (including 2 people) or something like that, 'cause they're not going to ask for ID.

Congrats! Your dress and Jewelry were gorgeous!! Did you use Michael for your photography? I am also getting married at the pond gazebo, was all the decoration extra cost, or part of a package?
