I hope I'm not reposting, but I'm getting married at Sunset Beach Resort in Montego Bay, August 4, 2012.  I'm so excited but there is so much to do!  I want to start a planning thread but I am a loser when it comes to keeping things up to date. Congrats to all the 2012 brides!!

when it comes to a planning thread, you can start posting it a week before the wedding....but not before, make sure you read the rules on planning threads, just do a search and youll find the rules for it.

 

what im doing to make sure its all together, is take pics as you go..then when it comes time then you can do your thread and its all there for you. good luck and congrats

Congratulations on your engagement.  I didn't choose a hotel, rather a Villa in Montego Bay.  A few things to keep in mind regarding any of

the hotels.  Hotels book as many events as possible on any given day.  While the ceremony may be booked at the Arch on the Beach for 1-hour,

bride #2's party may be hanging around while you say your "I do's".  Take a look at some of the candid photos on line of beach resort weddings

and notice the tourists in the background complete with shorts and flip flops.  Every bride has a photogapher, party, family, friends, etc. in tow,

you get the picture.  There is no guaranteed privacy at any hotel as there may be up to 10 weddings per day.  Ask how far in advance you can

work with your hotel desginated Planner, it may only be 30 or 60 days.  If you select outside ask what your backup location is in advance in case

it rains.  Ask about all the extras that are not covered in the package the hotel is offering.  Ask questions here, I found the thread full of Bride's

willing to share.  Best of luck.

Have you stayed at the Riu before?  I stayed at the Jewel Dunn River Resort in Ocho Rios which is right next door and I heard not so positive things about the Riu?

HELLO LADIES!!

 

so my FI and i were trying to think of a unique thing to do as a guest book. we came up with having a poster of jamaica and getting everyone to sign it. i was thinking of making it on Vistaprint and having it in black and white but i am having trouble finding a nice picture of the island to use... has anyone seen one?
