I will be there! Excited to learn more about wedding details.. I am still deciding on the resort location for a November 2011 wedding. I just recently came across these resorts and have liked what I've seen so far!

Thanks Tammy for setting this up!

 

Questions I have so far:

- Is the wedding decor set up included with all wedding packages, or only the Divine package? Mainly wondering about chairs (need to pay rental per chair?) and if the beautiful wooden arch shown in the pictures is included?

- Are trades or credits available if we do not need/want some of the extras (i.e. dinner on beach, airport transfer, massages, hair/make-up, etc)

- What are the back-up options in case of rain?

- Are outside vendors, such as photographer/videographer, allowed? If so, any fees related to that?

- How do we go about booking a wedding? Is a deposit needed to hold the date? When is the final payment due?

I'm excited to attend! I'm in the very beginning stages of planning so I bet this will be educational in a lot of ways. 

 

A couple questions (all may not be able to be answered by Pilar):

~How many weddings are held in a day? Is there a max?

~I'd like to do a site visit in November...do wedding coordinators give tours/information? How long in advance do I need to make an appointment?

~What is the difference in cost between having a sit down dinner vs. buffet. How many entree choices are offered for each?

~Why is a champagne toast additional if a full bar is included? Is champagne not included in the full hosted bar?

~If I pay to rent chivarri or bamboo chairs for the ceremony, can I have them for the reception as well? 

~How does a room block work? Do we get a better rate for the higher number of rooms we expect/guarantee? Is this something we work on with a TA? Whats the average room rate as part of a room block of 30 rooms?

~I assume you'll discuss ceremony and reception sites.

~What's the weather like in the fall?

 

Thanks!

Thanks for arranging this Tammy! Looking for that 1-800# also. And can you tell me what time it is at. I am in Ontario and on Eastern Standard Time. Not sure if it's the same or not. In one spot it says PST and another PDT! Help!
