For dinner - do you have to pick a salad, soup, entree and main dish? Or can you have 2 salads?

No, it didn't cost extra. We were in contact with the WC before we went down and let her know we wanted to do a tasting.

We are having our reception on the beach outside of the Tropical. We are expecting about 50 guests and are getting a dance floor...so even though we are staying at the Palace, Coral Beach would be a bit tight for us.

I just looked up the showtimes ( I still have my activity pamplet from when I was down there), the shows started at 9:30. I don't know if they change them according to the time of year?
I don't have any pictures of the grill. Sorry!

There are sliding doors for the entire bathroom. The showers don't have a separate door. i.e. if someone is at the sink, there is nothing separating them from the person in the shower. There is a separate door to the toilet though.

November 6, 2010 is on hold for our wedding - yay! We are going down there for another wedding next month, and we're going to meet with Xhail. Any suggestions/tips for my meeting with her, since we're still 11 months out? Also, does anyone have 2010 questions that they want me to ask while I'm there? We will probably take another trip as the wedding gets closer, but I would love to get a lot of the details out of the way and at least see all that the resort has to offer... I can't wait for our visit!!

OOH girl! Take as many pics as you can for us! That would be so helpful!

I'm actually going there next weekend so I will try to take as many pictures as possible also.

 

Beth - When you were there in July, how was the weather in the evenings? Was it really hot or does it cool down a bit?

Hi ladies,

 

Just wondering if anyone knows how the colour choice for the ribbon on the chairs (for an outside ceremony) work? I've seen numerous pictures where the ribbon matches the bridesmaid dresses. Just wondering if the WC needs to know the colour before you go or is that decided when you arrive? Just wondering
