Majestic Colonial Info

[brendali.caban]

Thank you SOOOO much for all that information. All the info I have sucks!

It looks like I am going to have to do some serious working things out with my coordinator, because I have soooo many people coming! I hope they can work things out with me....!

 

And LilRebel, I believe it's considered one giant hotel complex, so I dont think you need a guest pass if you are staying there. I think this is more for guests who are NOT staying at the resort.

I would check into this. I wanted to get married at the elegance because I liked their gazebo better and the two resorts are considered separate so guests at the colonial cant use the bars and restaurants on the elegance side. My family and I were told this by a manager so we chose to have everyone stay at the colonial side and get married there. If you can try to get everyone on the same side or you will probably have to pay a day pass so they can eat and drink on the other side (wrist bands are different).

elegance and colonial are considered separate hotels...you can't stay one side and use the facilities on the other. They use separate wrist bands. I tried to do this for wedding but decided to have everyone stay on the colonial side and do my wedding there and switch over to the elegance club for my 2nd week.

Thanks a lot!

I was thinking the same thing, remembering experience at other huge resorts where you can go from one place to another, but the wristbands are different and you can't use some of the facilities...

Will look into that for sure.

They have made so many changes to their wedding options. Sandra just sent me all those links also. I emailed her for some clarification on some things and this was her response:

•The $500 an hour option-What if I have a DJ and I would want to have the International bar instead? What would the price difference be?
[sandra de la Cruz]-Sorry, this is a rate that just include national drinks. International open bar should be paid per person per hour as stated, full price for the first hour and half price for following hours.

•What's the difference between the Traditional Dominican Band and the Trio?[sandra de la Cruz]-Both are Dominican, but the tradicitonal Dominican band is called Perico Ripiao, and it is the only thing they play (kind of a fast meringue) and the Trio will play different type of music

•What do the decorations for ceremony include for $348?
[sandra de la Cruz]-Up to 40 guests, sashes for the chairs, tulle for the gazebo, runner for the table, crystal vases with flowers for the aisle

•Can I have a photographer other than Tropical Pictures?
[sandra de la Cruz]-We, the resort work with Tropical Pictures for photography and Brightlight for Dvd, find attached the memo that explains our policies about photography / videography

•Do you have any DJ recommendations?
[sandra de la Cruz] We work with the resort Dj’s not external ones.

I hope this helps with some questions.
