OFFICIAL NOW Jade Wedding Thread

[heathersierra]

Hi Brides, I need to turn in my wedding planning form, but I can't remember how many hors' doeuvres we're allowed to choosse!!  6 or 8???  I remember it doesn't matter whether you choose hot/cold.  Help!

I think it's only 4 too. I think it's set up so that guests will get to eat 6-8 total appies each.

Hi ladies!  I am getting married at Now Jade on February 8th, 2014 with the Devine package.  I have confirmed my date and times and I'm not sure what else I have to do until I turn in the paperwork 45 days before...

 

We are planning on getting a DJ for the reception in the Bamboo room- do we need to arrange this ourselves?  Does the resort have a DJ they always use or do we need to find one? Will Pilar book them or do I need to contact them separately?

 

Same thing for the photographer.  We plan on upgrading the photography to include 3 hours of coverage and a trash the dress shoot.  Do I need to schedule this or will Pilar?

 

Another question- for the hair/makeup- does that need to be scheduled now or do I just figure that out once I get to the resort?

Our ceremony is at 4:30 PM... what time do you guys recommend getting hair and makeup done?

 

Thanks for all your help here on the forum!

Hi,

I'm in the process of arranging the DJ with Pilar. They have a DJ they use at the resort. If you want a different one it costs an extra $350 for the outside vendor fee. I think with the photographer time extension this can be organized when you submit your final planning form or even at the meeting at the resort but it you would like to see more prices or talk to the photographer directly the email is: [email protected]. They sent me a bunch of information if you would like any of it (including examples) PM me your email. Hair and make up should be scheduled with the spa directly 2 months before your wedding (Fredy Lugo email: [email protected]. I also have a spa price list if you would like that. Hope this helps.

How did you use your "free rooms"? I'm talking about the promotion where you get a free room for every 5 or 6 rooms booked. Did you keep them for yourself or divide the savings amongst all guest? We are thinking of using the free rooms for ourselves. That way we only pay for our honeymoon at a different resort. Are we allowed to be selfish this one time?!?!

For the company we booked with, our travel agent gave us the impression that we would receive the cash back from these rooms and could do with it as we wished. It hasn't happened yet (and won't until final payments are made by our guests October 1), so I'm not entirely sure. Of course this may be entirely different depending on who you booked with though and what their fine print says (I'm in Canada, you're in the USA).

I definitely remember reading the value of the rooms will be credited to your room/wedding account. Thanks for the reminder!
