Alicia,

Are you getting married at the Iberostar Beach or the Iberostar Suites? This may be the issue.

Do you have a contact email for Rachel the makeup artist?

I don't have Rashel's email but I've been in contact with her via facebook "Chasity Artistry Rashel Edwards"

If you don't have at least 50+ people Calabash isn't an option, and the Mediterranean is way to small for a wedding over 30 people or so, I was in there.  So I don't know what I'd do if we weren't able to do it there!

 

I'm not really stressed about it yet, I'm thinking (hoping) people will book with their tax returns!

Heather & Court,

I give you guys credit! My wedding is right around the same time as yours & I only have 1 more person to book (my sister). But we do only have 20 people coming including ourselves! 

& I thought 1 person was enough stress for me! I can't wait til the 3 month out mark so I can actually "plan"!

 Alicia, 

 

If you are talking to Tiffany ... then you are most likely referring to the Suites Steakhouse. She is talking about the Beach Steakhouse.

I think we invited roughly 100-110 people and we have 30 coming. My travel agent predicted all along we would have 30 (or roughly 1/3), she said people always are excited but plans change and many people end up not making it. I think with planning a destination wedding there is always a risk some people you had hoped could be there won't make it, but at the end of the day, this is a different type of experience and if I wanted a wedding with 200 people I would have planned it at home. All that truly matters is that I'm marrying my best friend and so long as we both show up, the rest is all a bonus as far as I'm concerned! Of course my head was ready to explode when we were up to the last day to book back in the spring and my Dad and brother still hadn't booked, but it all worked out and they got themselves booked in time after all. No wedding is stress free!

At the 3 month Mark they send you the documents to fill out, they still don't answer questions any faster or any more helpfully haha. I can send them to you now if you want, just send me your email address. I am at the Beach resort.

Does anyone know what the tables are like.. or how the seating is set up in the Calabash Restaurant for a Semi-Private? We will have about 60 people so I'm curious to how it will be set up. I saw some pictures previous and it looked like round tables, but the wedding coordinator says it will be square tables and hold 10 people.

 

Can anyone confirm this, or does anyone have any pictures?

 

Thanks!
