2013 Iberostar Rose Hall Suites Brides

I had round tables set up for the dinner... We had a choreographed dance so we didn't want the long tables. I liked the round tables

I got mine back a few weeks before we left, however I know some brides didn't get their quote back until 2 days before they left. I wouldn't go based on 2012 final details, it does not have the right info on it ... and it will only upset you when they charge you more for everything. It doesn't matter if you signed a contract in 2012 or not, they go based on their final details right now, and they pick and choose what they are going to charge you unfortunately. I received all 2012 prices, but another bride a few days after me was charged a 2012 bonfire price and a 2013 steel pan band price. I was charged 2012 DJ, but many brides around me were charged 2013 pricing. You could give them your "wedding vision" but they won't do much with it, they'll put it in a file until you have your meeting with them the day before the wedding and they'll go over what you can and cannot do. I would ask several questions about your "vision" to make sure you can do everything you want before you go ... that way there are no surprises.

LOL..seriously I didn't hear anything until almost 2 weeks out and then didn't finalize until we got there LOL. My TA had to send messages VIP to them, but honestly they did every thing I asked and was super attentive once we got there. I know all the forums say don't worry and you're thinking "seriously how can you say that" but don't worry. If you have the numbers they sent you for the packages and extras. It is pretty true to form. We paid our bill the day we checked out, kind of weird but that's what was done.

Another question re dinner at Aunt Ruby's... we have individual favors and I initially hoped to leave the favors on everyone's dinner plate for when it is time to be seated.  But, are there actually plates set at the tables, in advance?
 

[DanaB16]

Yes they had plates on the tables. Nicole and Tiffany will pretty much do whatever you want. At least that was my experience.

[jamielt]

What are your thoughts on that... giving the favors at dinner... or should we arrange to have them in everyone's room upon their arrival?

Does anyone have the layout of Aunt Ruby's for seating assignments? I've been there before but trying to do it from memory is not working so great! Haha.

Hey ladies! I started a new thread for November 2013 brides so we can all chat and share ideas and answer some questions since communication is difficult! 3 more months! Eek!

Hi Ladies, I'm new to this thread and boy do I have a lot of questions. I'm still working through the thread but what I've read so far, seems like IRHS is great destination wedding spot. I chose a DW because I really didn't want to bother with the hassle of planning a wedding.  After doing a lot of reading still seems like there is some planning that needs to happen; just not as much as an inland/local wedding would be.  Our budget is also pretty strict so I'm anxious to get the conversation started to see if IRHS is doable or not. 

 

I'm currently waiting on a response from Iberostar (no surprise there) to see what dates are available in June 2014.   If anyone have the 2014 rates, can you please shoot me a PM?

 

Also I'd love to know what travel agencies have been used as well. Right now Im thinking of using Apple Vacations, does anyone have any experience with using them?

Honestly,

 

I really wanted to have the gift bags given as people arrived but I had so many bags and I put them together when we got there. All of my guest came at different times so it was hard to do it that way. Either way you do it, it should be really cute. I gave my bags out during our welcome Bon Fire, my guest used them the next couple days at the pool.

I am getting married June 2014 at Iberostar.     How was your experience using Liberty Travel?  I just requested a quote from them and was quite pleased with their prices hope the service matches.
