Iberostar Rose Hall Brides - Post all info/questions here!

I agree. I think thatHattie reason why they do that anyway.

Thanks for the info! It seems a bit outrageous that they're charging us twice for the same thing! I'm going to email the resort about the florist before I even research different vendors. If it's that much extra in fees, that money would probably go a long way in additional flowers from Tai Flora.

It is $32 per person not including alcohol. Alcohol is an extra $7 (domestic) or $10(premium) This is for a buffet style reception on the beach. I am going to combine it with the bonfire so we can save a few $$$ on the alcohol since the bonfire for $250 includes an open bar for an hour. Our reception is only going to be 3 hours long so we may not even spring for the extra alcohol. Especially since it will be over at about 9:30 and our guests can then utilize the alcohol that is included in their all inclusive stay.

 

Hey! We are also considering doing some kind of dinner and reception on the beach. Would you mind letting me know what they charge for this?

Sorry I meant that may be why they charge so much. So we wouldn't choose an outside vendor.

If you want the bonfire it is a flat fee of $250 plus 7 or 8 dollars (domestic or premium booze) an hour/per person (beyond 15 adults) for open bar. I forget the cost per person for the hors d'ouvres, we are doing ours right after dinner so I didn't think anyone would be hungry just yet. Did you get the extra charges list when you booked? I already asked if they would honor the 2011 prices for us and they promised they would. I saved that email of course

Welcome back newlywed! Everything looks like it was beautiful. Love your dress!! Congrats again!  I choose 4:30 for my ceremony, but I see you choose 5 and it was still very much light outside. I'm toying around with pushing it back to 5...but perhaps not since I already have schedules being set with our vendors.

That may depend on the time of year it is when you get married too.

Beautiful... So during the bonfire did you have a DJ and do all of the "wedding" things like the first dance garter toss etc? I was planning on springing for the BBQ Buffet reception on the beach for three hours with a DJ. But the way you did it seems more cost efficient. Did you have the bonfire for 3 hours? If so, how much was it?
