Hi Starryism!

Just wondering what prompted you to change from the Suites to the Beach?? I'm currently booked at the Suites (wedding date reserved) and am waiting on quotes from my TA.

 

Thanks!!

Natalie

I think it's also important to note that the agreement doesn't really lock you in to anything - you can still cancel without any penalty, unless you've sent in all your legal paperwork, in which case they charge you $100.

I am a little confused about the open bar, for any brides that are having, or have had a private reception. 

 

I guess I can't get my head around why there would be an open bar charge that is per person, since it is included in staying with the hotel.  I can almost understand paying for a bartender.  Maybe it's just me. 

 

Do any brides know what the price is for open bar at the suites for a private reception.

Hi everyone! Just wanted to let anyone beginning their planning know it's a lot easier to call Nicole/Tiffany at the Suites rather than wait for an email if you're in need of information/response quickly.

 

I'm booked for April 6, 2012

Anyone else booked for that week???

Do you have a number for them that isn't international?

I asked Nicole if I have to pay a vendor fee for Rachel, the make up artist and she said yes. Did any other brides @ the Suites who used a makeup artist have to pay a vendor fee.

I did not have to pay a vendor fee.  It was mentioned to me that if the person is not staying then a vendors fee is not necessary.  Make it clear that she will not be staying throughout the ceremony, if that is the case.  I'm quite sure you will NOT need her to stay for touch-up b/c her work is just that good and it will stay!

Thanks for the info. I will reconfirm that with Nicole.  Do you know if they provide the huppa @ the Suites. My florist quoted me for rental and decoration of the huppa but I thought the Suites has one you can use. I don't want to pay for one if I don't have to.

 

Thanks

Yes, the huppa is there.  I assume you would need to get the measurements to provide to the florist.  I know for a fact that the huppa @ the Beach is larger than the one @ the Suites so the measurements could make a huge difference.
