Not sure if this is true...but it's what I was told. Congrats on your engagement!! Good luck with everything!   Lisa and Pam - glad to hear from some January brides!! What location and times did you go with for your ceremonies? Are you doing a private dinner or reception?

hi jkgirl!

 

we are doing a symbolic beach ceremony with Pastor York at 4pm.

 

we are having the included dinner at the steakhouse, and then having a private reception at the Parrot or Wet Bar (depending on the number of guests)..

 

...i am also waiting on some better rates for January. i am a travel agent, and am getting impatient with myself...LOL.

 

 

We are also going with the included dinner at the steakhouse.  We booked the wet bar for a private reception after.  Have you decided which place to go with?  I'm trying to get idea's of how to decorate.

I'm having my reception at the wet bar (private) on March 5, 2011!!!

Are you taking things to decorate the wet bar or getting a decoration package?

[P&B2010]

Hi!  There were a couple of comments about the gazebo and whether or not to get an aisle runner, and I just wanted to let you know that there is really no need.  We didn't pay for the extra decoration package, and the gazebo still looked beautiful.  There were rose petals all over the ground, which I totally didn't expect and it looked great.  I wouldn't pay the $100 and I wouldn't bother to bring one - you will have enough stuff to pack!  But of course if you want it, bring one!  I will try to post a picture later of the gazebo during the ceremony.

 

Also, the Wet Bar is the perfect place to have your reception if you are deciding!  The Pool Bar is much smaller.  And the Wet Bar is very close to the Steakhouse.  Enjoy your planning!

PLEASE POST A PICTURE ASAP!!!  you didn't pay for ANY decorations and they decorated???

i'm getting married on the beach and was going to get a decoration package.  I'm not sure which one but budgeted for the expensive one. So I will have the yellow chair covers and whatever else that package gives you.

 

I'm going to bring rose petals, runner (maybe), cake topper and not sure what else.

What if you don't want certain things in the decorative package???? I already got chair sashes... I don't need them anymore... and I dont want table runners.... 

 

I want the chivary chairs .... What do I do??
