July 2011! Just starting to plan.

[daisymable]

We have decided to get married this July 2011.  Did it take a long time to confirm hotels etc.? We have narrowed it down to a few... Azul Sensatori, Azul Beach hotel and Zoetry (but Zoetry may be too expensive).  Is using a travel agent the best way to go? I have contacted one but it's taking a while to hear back etc.  We are also thinking about Dreams but it looks like the ceremony locations are not private? Can anyone confirm this? Also, has anyone got married at Dreams and had a ceremony location other then the beach or gazebo? I like the different ceremony options at the Karisma hotels.  Also, can someone tell me which Dreams resort has the best beach for swimming? Thanks in advance for your help.

Congratulations!  I am also  a July 2011 bride (8th)  I am getting married in Jamaica.  I am using a travel agent for my travel arrangements but I booked the wedding with the hotel.  It only took a day to do that but each resort is different.  It usually take a travel agent a few days to get the group quotes in (if thats what you are doing)  It took air canada vacations 5 days to give a quote to the travel agent.

 

Have fun with your planning

Welcome and congratulations!!

Congrats!  I booked my wedding through a travel agent.  She seemed to get responses back from the resorts quicker then I was...  We booked in Jamaica though, so I don't know if that would be true for other countries or not...  Good luck with your planning!

We are looking at Azul Fives or Sensatori in Mexico...also slightly considering Hilton Rose Hall in Jamaica. We are really worried about the beach/water at Sensatori.  Quotes are starting to come back now but we have family flying out of many places throughout Canada so it's hard to find something that works for everyone.
