In the process of booking Rose Hall Resort...

Curious....what factors made you go with the Grand Palladium instead? I am also looking at the Rose Hall Resort and am wondering about comparable places.

Congratulations on setting a location, I am still waiting to hear back from ROR about the date I requested.

bashigyal, as stated in post #10, they were jacking me around... and let's face it, there basic packages are really expensive! In looking at what I really wanted, that package was $7K!!! And dining together on the night of our wedding is a biggie for me... and there'd have been a per-head charge for the meal, if the group was larger than 10!

We're taking the risk! Brand new resort... bigger and with more choices for restaurants, entertainment, etc. A birdie told me it's a much nicer location (to mean scenery) and when you correspond with them, you actually get a response!

It looks wonderful and I have read MANY reviews. Is it still under renovation? Congrats again and any information you can pass on is very much appreciated!!

I was married there back in April and it is BEAUTIFUL !!!!! renovations were done when I was there ... you can see the pictures on my wedding website (PHOTOS page) -- Our Wedding Website .... don't hesitate to ask any questions ....

Good luck! If I can help with anything else, let me know!

Sorry for the first post .. did not realize that you changed resorts ... still CONGRATS!!! and I am glad you were able to set things up. Communication was also an issue for me with them as well as prices -- and I had to switch wedding planners 3 times since each time I got a new one, she would quit the resort (the last one quit a few weeks before my wedding day) --- talk about stressful months ... but in the end, the wedding was AMAZING ...
