We opted for the free package as all we really needed was the ceremony. So I am guessing we will be on the public beach. I'm not too worried about it tho...it still looks beautiful, plus we are not doing te reception at the hotel. So we didnt want to pay money for stuff we wouldn't be using.

Totally agree!   So where are you doing your reception?  I thought about doing it on a catamaran at one point but fiance's family (mom and aunts) are terrified of boats so that was out.

 

I also did the free package but upgraded to the palapa/private beach as I didn't want to use an ala carte!

Cool! We are doing a sunset catamaran cruise as a thank you to everyone...we have heard raving reviews about it so we had decided on that even before picking out a hotel!

Nice! You should totally do it! We are going thru paradise catamarans.

It seems Andrea and Maria are both gone now, and I have Kenya I'm emailing!

[meganstobo2004]

Yup, Kenya took over for me too. She has been really on top of emailing me back though so I am not complaining! Do you know how we prove that we have guests coming for 40 nights?

Kenya is super quick!  I inquired about the cost to bring a makeup/hair team on site and got a response in under 5 minutes. It's too expensive so spa it is!  Which is ok, was just not wanting to bombard them as I need 5 hair done, and not sure who else is marrying that day!  

 

She told me the coordinator would be assigned 1 month before (I thought it was 3) but gave me a list of things they could coordinate for me, so more to think about!!!

 

You have guests for 40 nights? I must have read that wrong.

This is my assumption - with my booking package I got a spreadsheet I had to fill out with all my guests, who is in what room, their bed preference, and what table number they would be at.  I assume they use this to check their system to ensure these guests are all truly in the hotel.

Ahhh I see. I have heard mixed reviews about the salon...one of the guests at my wedding is a hair stylist so I got lucky. I think te spa would be good tho...plus a nice experience!
