"New Resort Opening May 1 2011" NOW LARIMAR ~ PUNTA CANA

[jbmarch2012]

Moni, I did want a by the pool reception... I thought the setting would be awesome at night but I really wanted a sit down dinner, so I think I will be sticking with the castaways as well, I've seen some of the settings there from when they were NH Real. I also really wanted to keep it outdoors but not on sand the whole time so that was the best alternative.

I'm sooooo excited that I had to share. I recieved a revised contract today and our rates based on dbl occ. $97 per night for 3 nights and any additional night is $89!!!! AAAHHH sooo happy!!!

katusha, my TA spoke with the WC and then she called me.... I know they usually don't start confirming anything until about 6 weeks before the wedding.  Castaways is outdoors just has a covering over the top but the sides are open air.... if you go to the website you can see a pic of it on the resort map.  

Jaz... I know it's such a hard choice...... still waiting to here if castaways is def avail for us, Claribel will probably contact me tomorrow.  That's so great that the rate went down.... I'd be excited too!

WOW! That's so amazing. That sooooo out does my rate of $130 but then again, my wedding is over winter recess. I'll stay hopeful that it will go down.

JB:

How in the world did you get your prices that low? Is that with the every 6th room free calculation and that dropped it more? Awesome job!!!

[jbmarch2012]

Acutie, no it doesn't include the free rooms yet! It's amazing, they had an early booking promotion and it just went down this much!

[Katusha]

Thanks, Moni! I looked at the picture and it's just what I had in mind for the reception. Didn't want to be indoors, because it's gorgeous outside, and in case of rain there is a roof. Perfect! I'm now wondering how would they set up the tables, it looks like the ones they have are for 4 ppl.

Congrats on such great rates, Jaz! Those are amazing!

Hey Girls,

 

This may be a stupid question...but do our guests get to pick what they want to eat at the seated dinner reception? Or do we have to choose a set menu w/ only one entree / app / dessert, etc?

 

Did someone have a picture of the poolside reception?? If so, can you either post it or email it to me? [email protected]

 

Thanks!

Ladies only a few more days until I leave for Punta Cana!!!  I want to have a list of questions and pictures to take when I get there so if there is anything you need more information on please let me know!!  I will try my best to get all your questions answered and pictures taken!!!    [email protected]

 

Vav and JB how in the heck did you get those rates??????  Vav you are traveling at the same time as me and I think mine are higher.  I am going to have to go back and double check my pricing!!  We are leaving Wednesday morning and staying till Saturday.  I have asked to see a wedding a few times but haven't really gotten much of a response back. Claribel did say she would meet up with me when we arrived so I am excited about that!!
