Brand new - Planning a wedding in Jamaica

[mrserickson0812]

Hi everyone!

 

I just got engaged about a month ago, and now my fiancé and I are starting to get serious about planning. We are hoping to get married in Jamaica next October or November. I’m pretty excited, but it also seems very overwhelming, so forgive me if you see me completely panicking on the forums!

Hi,

 

I just got engaged at the end of August and we are also planning to have our wedding in Jamaica. We figured out the date, July 13, 2013 but trying to pick a resort is proving to be a harder task. I think we are narrowing down the choices between Riu Montego Bay and Grand Palledium. I'm finding this site to be very helpful though, through this extremely overwhelming process!!!!

Same here!

 

I've been looking a lot at Grand Palladium lately - I think I might be focusing on that one.

 

I found this website helpful in picking out some resorts to research. The reviews are really thorough and the pictures are helpful, too!

Congrats eryone on your engagements...Finding the resort is definitely the hardest part of the planning. 

 

You can start by reading reviews from fellow brides in the "Resort Reviews" section in this forum.

 

Happy planning!
