I sent for a price on the rooftop but I'm not happy with them not including cocktail for the wedding and having to pay extra for drinks that are already free? Doesn't make sense to me. Paying extra to have it on the rooftop, maybe.

 

Thank you for the info

Hey SoonMrsD, 

 

So we decided to do it at Jellyfish. We fell in love with the place in the pictures + comments and when we went to visit, it was even better. (Everyone seems to say that about their wedding location, don't they? -- sorry to be cliche!). Anyway, you are right that the restaurant is not huge but after discussing with the coordinator there, we decided that the max amount of seated guests is 120: so that's our upper limit. We'll see what happens as we get closer to the day. 

 

As for convenience, for us the off resort solution works b/c (among other reasons) our guests like to party into the weee hours of the morning and jellyfish won't kick us out. The party will end when we say so. The restaurant also coordinates transportation and past brides have mentioned that it was a very easy process. PM me if you want to chat a bit more about it.

Hello fello brides!

 

I am a newbie here, and have been reading all the posts which have been extremely helpful!  Our wedding date is June 28, 2013 so coming real soon but I am getting stressed because my wedding planner keeps changing!  First I had Lianny, then a girl named Elia responded to me twice, and now I have another coordinator because Elia left and her name is Hildebrabda...is anyone else having the same issues?  I'm worried that everything I had coordinated with Lianny will be lost.  Any feedback would be helpful...thanks!!

OCT 2013 BR, hopefully they assign one of the current WD to you. I have a wedding in Nov 2013 and not doing a site visit so they are in no rush to assign anyone to me. But Helen from the wedding department called me and told me that i will get a response shortly and they are training someone new.

I worked with Marlene through e mail before the wedding and saw her for our meeting and at the wedding some but mostly worked with Hildebrabda once we arrived. She is new but did a great job. During our meeting she had all the information I had discussed with Marlene organized. She was very attentive and worked very hard to make things perfect.
