Your photos are beautiful; you look stunning. I am getting married there on November 11, 2011. I am so excited. How was Aunt Ruby's for the reception. I keep hearing it's nice, but no A/C?

THese are the pics from our photographer.  He was amazing.  I highly recommend Michael Saab photgraphy.  If you have any questions feel free to ask.  I know that there are a lot of pics but you will get to see it all.  Our ceremony was at the lazy river and the reception was Aunt Ruby's

Happy Planning

Aunt Ruby's is nice however it was really hot.  We were counting on the great ocean breeze to keep us cool but there was very little breeze.  Given that there was no AC we were hot.  Everyone was pretty drunk  so no one made a big deal about it.  It all depends on the weather that night!

 

Michael Saab is great!!

Philly Gal,

  your post are so informative. Would you please send me your pictures of your ceremony and reception please? I'm getting married Oct 2011 and are so anxious to get a start on planning. My email is [email protected]

Thank you so much!

Does anyone know what the Port Maria serves at the Grand? Since I'm having more then 50 guests, that's my only option...I would love to have a sit down dinner, but the information that my WC sent me is contadictive. One part of the details sheet says "Port Maria Restaurant a la Carte Service 30 pple or more $55 per person (ontop of the rental fee $2000)," and then when you turn to the page that list the private dinner for the Port Maria it says "if your group is between 40 and 50 you can choose to have our plated menu, which attracts an additional service charge, or the buffet" & "If your group is over 50 you will have two choices for a buffet dinner." Am I to understand that I can have either a sit down or a buffet...and If I choose the sit down, I have to pay $55 per peron? I'm so confused!!! HELP 

 

 Also, can anyone tell me what you decided to do for the bar situation? I was thinking it may be more affordable to bring my own bottles in and pay the $5 corkage fee per bottle instead of paying $10 per person. Is there a bar close to the Port Maria? ...close like 5 minutes away? I would hate for my friends have to take a trip/hike to get mixed drinks!

One More question. Does anyone know if you have to have your reception at the hotel you're staying at? I've been hearing so many great things about the steak restaurant at the Suites! Just curious
