Hey Bosi!

 

I just wanted to touch base - although the resort said sold out I was able to get you a room twice when you asked me too and had it held for a week both times pulling special favors - but you never responded to my Pm's nor emailed me directly. Not sure if you still needed it or if I can pull it off again but please email me directly so I know what is up!

 

thanks!

Hi there,

 

I am getting married at the Royal Caribbean w/Private Island resort on May 22, 2010... I have 10-12 people (us included) going. I wanted to find out from previous Sandals wedding experience if you HAVE to pay the extra costs for additional ppl at your "cake cutting/reception" or if you can just order champagne from the bar ahead of time and have one of your bridesmades bring it to the private area where you cut your cake. Something about paying extra to have drinks and some finger food doesnt seem right to me being that we are paying for our guests to come to our "all inclusive" wedding. I dont want to cheap out but it isnt cheap when you are paying for immediate family to attend your wedding for 4 nights..... Any suggestions on how to have a sit down dinner / reception at a restaurant or having champagne at the cake cutting,etc would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Andrea,

 

We booked the DJ at our wedding and to me it was worth the $600 due to the size of our group. We had a blast!! The DJ kept saying that this was going to be the last song and ended up playing four or five more songs after that. They cleared a area at the front of the ballroom for dancing. It was enough space for everyone to move! Our wedding coordinator introduced us as husband and wife.

 

Hope this helps!
