Taking extra decor to the resort.

[ShellyCarter]

Is anyone taking extra decor's to Jamaica?

I think the resort is charging a lot of extra decor.

 

I will be getting the waves of love package..but i am thinking  of taking down real touch flowers for my bridesmaid and flower girl.

 

I am also hoping to take down extra blue flowers to place on the tables to make it look better since the package is simple.

 

So my question is has anyone done this before?

do you know if the resort is okay with these extra decor?

What resort are you planning with?

Palladium, I spoke to my WC and she made note of it.

I'm getting married at the GP Palladium and I ended up purchasing Real Touch Orchids to use.  For $60, I have 4 boutinerres, 4 corsages, and 2 branches for my bridesmaids.  They seriously look so real and turned out perfect!  Only took me and my FMIL less than a hour to make them all.  Great deal since the florist was going to charge $20/boutinerre and $80+ for bridesmaid bouquets/stems.  I'm also bringing down my own Sand Ceremony vases.  Resort was going to charge $50, got my own personalized set for $25.  Otherwise I'm sticking with the resort decorations and will be paying $50 for the centerpieces (Waves of Love package as well).

We're planning to bring our own candles and chair sashes...our wedding coordinator said it's cheaper to buy in the US than to rent them in Jamaica.

do the resorts usually charge to set up the decor you brought from home?

Has anyone took their own decorations to Gran Bahia Principe in Jamaica and is there a cost?

Go to this thread:

There are tons of brides who were just married who took their own decorations, and I'm pretty sure there was no cost.

Hi Shelly!  I must have missed this part when I read your thread the first time... I'm taking down Preserved Orchids (white with pink accents) to scatter around the tables and also having them place one on each plate with the seashell.
