Hi dodds.. I was wondering if you can order a different cake and have centerpieces for a seperate price?

[BlakleyBrideToBe]

Great Review! Congrats! Post some more pictures!

Hi Crystal,

I'm not sure if a different cake can be ordered.

I also don't know if they have centrepieces for rent.

I had the two large flower arrangements taken off the arch (from the ceremony) and placed on the tables as an arrangement.

Hey Ladies

 

I am getting married at Rose Hall Suties in Nov/09!! Can't wait. Thanks for the review. You had to pay $18 for people to come to the wedding and another $18 for them to eat at the reception

[dodds]

Hi Love,

I just had to pay the $18 per guest once. It was to eat at the reception. All my guests were booked at the same resort as me (Rose Hall Beach).

Hi Dodds,

 

Question for ya: Were there any other 'unexpected' costs on the final bill from the hotel? Like gratuity charges or service charges or taxes on top of the quoted $2100 US? (I know about the $18US for each extra guest over 8 people)

[dodds]

Hi breeze,

I don't recall any unexpected charges. But I did find the stuff you buy in addition (flowers, hairdo's, make-up, etc) add up to be very expensive.

 

The exchange rate is a place they might have gauged me. They bill is in their currency and then exchange to US dollars (so I kinda paid exchange rate twice considering I had a Canadian credit card).

 

I think my bill was nearly $4K (not including flight/ dress/ tux/hotel).

 

If I come across my bill in the near future, I'll write what they charged me.

Ok, thanks dodds, thats good to know

Hi, great review. We are getting married at the Iberostar Rose Hal Suites

April 14, 2010. I was wondering, Did you rent out the steakhouse just for your reception? Isn't that like $800. I can't decide if we're going to do that. We're only going to have about 15 people with us so it seems like a waste of money. So if I DON"T rent out the steakhouse than everyone over 8 people I have to pay $18 for....is that correct

 

Thank you
