OFFICIAL NOW Jade Wedding Thread

 Hi Ladies-

Another DJ question- The DJ is not included in the Divine Package and is an additional $350/hour correct? I emailed Deisy regarding this, but was still confused with her answer. She also did not send me a DJ form. Also, can any past brides tell me how the ceremony music was done? Do you just give them an ipod and instructions and a hotel employee is in charge of it?

 

Thanks!

Lauren

yes the DJ is an extra charge per hour and I believe it's $250 but have heard $350 per hour. I did not get a DJ form either so I emailed Pilar. She said that she will will contact the DJ we want, so I'm assuming that the form comes from the actual DJ not Pilar. I heard to make sure you reserve your DJ, so I would contact your WC to get that started! Good luck with the planning:-)

Hello -

Can someone tell me the price for hair and makeup for my bridesmais, mother, and mother in law.

We are getting married at the pergola location; we’re trying to cut cost wanted to play a song from an iPod instead the live music. Is there any where we can plug in a iPod dock to play the music for the bride walk down? Any thoughts.

From most of the reviews I read, I believe a lot brides use their iPods for the ceremony music. I'm pretty sure both the Eternity and Divine packages come with the sound system and a technician to play each song at the right time. I plan to have around 4 songs while guest are being seated, 1 song for the mothers and my maid of honor's entrance, 1 for my entrance, and 1 for the recessional.

Hi Ladies!

 

I just booked a trip for the first week in Jan so that I can visit the resort, scope the venue locations and have a chat with Pilar before we are there in April for the wedding.  If anyone needs anything in particular looked at, just let me know and I will add it to my list.  Happy to help

hi ya guys!!!

 

I havent yet booked my wedding at Now Jade as im booking it through Virgin Holidays and their weddings brochure isnt yet out for feb 2014 but we have book the two weeks holiday/honeymoon part.

Has anyone else booked their wedding though Virgin holidays in the UK? Was just wondering about the different packages- in their current brochure they only have two packages the 'your moments' one and the 'Now to eternity one'- on the Now Jade website they offer a third - Divine package which we want to to for. Does anyone know if Virgin offers this one aswell? Also the same packages on the Jade website seem to offer more than what the same Virgin ones do? Not sure if Virgin just havent included everything in their brochure? Cant decide if I chould just book direct with the resort????

Goodness me I thought that it was going to be so straight forward doing a destinations wedding but it looks like theres going to be alot of serious planning!!!!but.... Im sooooo excited!!! We've been engaged for over three years now and have two beautiful children that will be 2 and 4 sharing our special day!! Cant wait roll on feb 2014!!!!

 

an excited bride

Can any past brides who had the resort pass out welcome bags as guest checked in tell me how much it was? The first page of this thread say's $2-$3 per bag but when I asked Pilar she said $4. Not a huge difference, but just wondering if the price has went up. Trying to decide if we'll have the resort do it or if we will just do it on our own. Guess it'll all depend on how many guest we'll have.
