Trying to choose?

mskimmy16 · April 3, 2009

Ok so we are thinking of trying to chose where to get married! We like the idea of Jamaica.

We have been looking at Sandales and Couples resorts. We did check with a travel agent because we have some single friends that are going to come (we are only going to have like 10-25 people is what we think. )

I am worried about how the resorts will be for our friends and family.

I am looking for the best service and the best food! Brian is a seafood lover and steak. He is not into a huge varity! And the best night life kind of thing for us.

Any advice?

Wish I could help. I'm going to RIU Montego Bay in 1 week but kids are allowed on that resort so I won't be much help to you! Sorry

Sandals Montego Bay may be the best option for you as the nightlife there is pretty good and Sandals food & beverage is really good! Couples may be a bit too quiet.

Keep in mind with Sandals they only have king size beds at their resorts and they will charge singles for double occupancy! For some of my couples this has been fine and they have guests room together with no problem- but if you have guests that may be on the "prowl" then Sandals will not be a good fit! LOL Typically when there is a group, everyone hangs out together so the singles don't feel uncomfortable at a couples only property!

My second recommendation is the same as TA Maureen -get married at property like the Iberostar or Riu's- that caters to everyone, and honeymoon at a Sandals (most of them are a bit more lively- there are a few that are really quiet to so definately use a TA that knows Sandals! ) or at Couples ( a touch quieter).

TA Maureen could assist with both the family property and Sandals/Couples!
