Has anyone that been married there been given vows to read to eachother by Carolina? We somehow didn't save a copy when we left the gazebo and I would like the wording for my photo book! Please please please send me the wording if she did, id know it if I seen it! I imagine it's standard. I emailed her last week but haven't gotten a reply

Hey Ladies! I wanted to share this with the brides on here.  There is a deal with Living Social for a 3 night Grand Palladium Stay for $799.  The only catch is that it is only around a select few airports which include: BWI, CLE, PHL, and PIT.  Thought I would share this news with everyone.  Now that the traveling part is out of the way..I finally got the documents needed to get married in the DR.  I believe Carolina was on vacation for a bit so I am planning on asking her what I should do now that this is taken care of.  Any ideas on what buildings on the Bavaro side are the best to stay (the most updated)?

Does anyone know roughly how long the aisle is at the gazebo?? I need to know for my aisle runner. Please let me know. I asked Carolina and she said 13m or 42 feet. But that seems WAY too long to be true. I don't think she understands that I only want the runner to be as long as the guest seating up until the bottom of the stairs. I've attached a pic with a diagram of what the measurement I want.

Has anyone had to deal with Carolina sending new services forms and then stating that these 'services' have recently changed? There is starting to be conflicting information and I know she is busy however, now isn't the time less than 4 months from the wedding. I only ask because we signed an agreement back in September 2012 using the Crystal Wedding Package and it stated that it was up to 20 guests. Now, they are saying that it is up to 8 guests and that won't work. Although I mentioned to her that there may be up to 40 guests (we estimated on the high side) we really thought there wouldn't be that many people showing up. My main issue is that she is amending an agreement when it was already agreed upon in September of 2012. Any other brides dealing with this? I know she sends a lot of custom generated emails but I quite frankly don't send custom information that is not based upon our agreed terms. I also know they want more money and we agreed we would pay that fee should our number rise about 20. But this is absolutely ridiculous. Thoughts? Comments? Everything was going rather smooth (as smooth as it could be) until...now

Hi Jenn963! Is that the gazebo located in Grand Palladium Punta Cana? I hear there are two gazebos. Is that the case?

[Jenn963]

hi bride2b1130  ; i think it goes by whatever you signed...so if at the time u signed up for the crystal package for 20 ppl, that's the agreement that should be kept.  I know I have the silver package which includes up to 20 ppl as well but brides after me say there's a max of 8 only.  So i guess that just changed within this past year.  Your best bet is to go back through your emails and see what she sent you and save that and bring it to her to show her at the time of your wedding so you don't get charged more. 

 

Also, it was the beach gazebo I was wondering about.  I know there's a garden one but it's all good.  A bride who got married there earlier this year helped me out already...so 30ft it is thanks

Hi Jenn 963, I did go through my emails and drag and dropped the information we had previously signed. It was a honest mistake and it was corrected. Something like that puts me in a whirlwind but it is all okay at the moment. So you're saying there is a garden gazebo and an ocean facing gazebo. Are the views the same?
