egordon Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Hello, I am a new member and im planning to have my wedding in Jamaica in the next two years. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayKay Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Welcome!! You will find tons of useful information here. What we did is first decided on a location, and then listed all the resorts and went through them all and narrowed it down to about six. We then took that list to our travel agent and she told us approximate prices and some more about resorts. Based on that we decided on a resort, emailed the wedding planning and booked a date! Hope that helps! Congrats and happy planning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmcst38 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 We chose our resort, the Riu Ochos Rios, because we stayed at the Riu Palace in Aruba last year and we loved it and felt it was in an appropriate price popint to ask guest to pay for since we gave them about 6 month notice. This site has a lot of info, look at the pics of other brides, read reviews but mostly figure out what you are comfortable asking your guest to do. good luck!

NurseM Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Me and my fiancee took a trip to Ochos Rio Sandals in Jamaica and saw a few weddings going on while we were there, I loved that resort and the whole sandals feel. We were thinking about going back to there to get married but decided on mexico instead. Good Luck with the planning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisa_mhb Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Welcome...another Jamaica bride here. We chose RIU Ocho Rios. I had previously attended a wedding at RIU Negril and also stayed at RIU in Cancun. As others have said, you'll find LOTS of info on this site. Good luck!!

Michele4172011 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Congratulations! Jamaica is gorgeous. I would recommend Montego Bay, its right by the airport so your guests don't have to travel far once they land. This site is a life saver in the planning process. Happy reading!

Marlena Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Welcome! I've just starting planning our wedding in Jamaica. We chose Montego Bay because it's close to the airport, and a few of the tourist spots we would like to go to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
