Wedding Negotiations-How did you do it?


Recommended Posts

I have narrowed down my choices to two resorts in Punta Cana, however, one of the resorts has excellent prices for weddings but the cost for guests are too high, the other resort has overpriced wedding offerings but good prices for guests. I'm trying to negotiate prices down, has anyone had success with either negotiating wedding/reception prices down or getting hotel rates lowered. I am bringing about 100 guests to site. Any info on how you negotiated and what resorts were open to negotiations would be great. I am looking at Melia & Moon Palace.

I had a lot of luck negotiating actual wedding package stuff as well.

 

TA Maureen is right about how many people to expect, even if you have 100+ people 'say' they are going to go. We invited about 250 and had about 70 respond that they were going and had 40 show up.

How did you do it and when? I've tried and they wont even budge. I even threatened to cancel my wedding because they wouldn't accomodate anything and they didn't care. The response was just for me to put it in writing that I'm cancelling.

So since my wedding pkg includes pretty much everything, you're saying it's a fat chance for me to negotiate things eh? :)

 

I'm just thinking, I don't know if I want them to do my makeup so maybe I can swap it for something else like extra flowers or have them do my mom's makeup?
