How much are you spending on other events, besides the wedding day itself?

I hadn't even thought of doing a welcome dinner. Are people doing them private or just at a resturant on the resort?

We are earning unlimited private events through our bookings at the resort, so we plan on having 3 or 4 official events- but shouldn't spend too much on them. Just the overage rate since anything over 40 people has a pp rate.

 

We will be doing a welcome s'mores party on the beach, a rehearsal dinner a cocktail reception following the ceremony and of course the reception itself as all private events. We will then also likely do a catamaran before the s'mores party the first night- and a golf tournament on one of the days.

Not much really, trying to keep the costs down on the wedding related events... we'll do a rehearsal dinner in a local restaurant in Negril. Maybe a girly cocktails night down at the hotel too ;-)

Quite a bit on a party in the UK a few weeks after we get home, this will cost us around £1000.00 ( $1700 for buffet and dj. Will have around 150 people at that party.

 

Good excuse to wear wedding dress again

 

Also going to have some further photography done in the UK in our wedding outfits with our show cars.

The only other activity that we are doing is snorkeling- I'm thinking of buying everyone underwater cameras from walmart or something along those lines.

 

So it will cost us nothing.

 

We asked if the family wanted to do a day trip with us to the underwater river, but they politely declined due to the lack of time.

I haven't really decided I know we get a free cocktail hour with our group booking on the cruise. I may use that for the welcome cocktails...we'll see
