i suggest you get a contract with everything from the tables to the flowers in an email confirmed from her. Maybe cc a sales manager. Ana is fantastic in person but she is very busy and seems to not have an exact idea since mgmt isnt clear either. I met with her on the 1st and plan to go back a month before the wedding to confirm all in writing. This is your big day- so make sure all is in order! I have heard great reviews and the place is so nice- service is great- and food was wonderful! Your guests will love it!! Congrats on your wedding! And please post a long review when you get back from your honeymoon! Thanks!!

jfazz..... so, if it rains the night of your wedding, and you can't have your dj inside the closed restaurant, then i guess that means you can't have your first dance etc.

I doubt that any DJ would play music in the rain regardless, I am sure they would want to protect their equipment - but yes being outside def. a risk

I think you will be okay! I have not had anything in writing either and my wedding is a week away! I am keeping all of my emails and probably printing the ones out that have specific information in them to take with me just in case. I am keeping an optimistic attitude about all of this. I'll let you know in a couple of weeks how it all worked out

Gosh- I am so frustrated... it honestly scares me... that I am going to get my guests to put all this $$ in and then we put all this $$ in and things not go smooth. Not trying to be mean but how hard is it to answer emails? If I didn't have so many people already booked, I would consider changing resorts, but then what if other places are just the same?? It makes me so much more mad to see a lot of you just as frustrated. I am still waiting on an email from Friday to be answered, that I have now resent her twice and nothing.

 

have you guys told her the packages you want? flowers you want? decor you want? etc? i cant even get her to open my emails to see those things!

that is the worst thing i ever heard! so if it rains out, you can't do your first dance and all that stuff!! ? thats horrible!

Just an FYI, enchantingmemories.com have really cheap and cute flower hair clips for $15.00. it's cheaper than getting a flower for your hair at the resort because the starting price is $20.00--again another rip off for "1" flower...

Heres a cute picture of flowers for the bridesmaids--i love the gerber babies in hot pink.

So I just received the centerpiece choice pics from Ana and I hate all of them....and of course she didn't include pricing! Has anyone decided to do centerpieces through the resort and if so do you have pics/pricing? I am wondering if we could rent vases from the resort and what it would cost and then use my own fake flowers?
