Jamaican wedding; Ocho Rios

[mymayday]

I had a fabulous wedding and it was only possible because of BJs bridal fantasies at Santa Maria Complex. I Arrived in Ochi to find my case didn't come!!! Typical!! No one can imagine my stress no dresses, no suit, no shoes and I hit the worst rainy season ever for my beach wedding. So I was starting from scratch organising a wedding for 50 guests in a foreign country. Help was what I needed and I stumbled over a Gem in Geraldine Suarez!! My fairy God mother. Before my inlaws brought their confusion I had venue, a beautiful dress (probably nicer than my $2500 wasted dress living in my suitcase now) my grooms men were suited and booted and although wet my day was better than I expected. She even convinced me the rain was good luck!!! Well Good luck anyone organising a wedding. One thing I learned though is, I only needed to jump on a plane with my honeymoon gear and get married!! No heavy suitcases no costly cleaning bills, I just returned the dresses and suits mud stained and dirty and recieved my deposit. No arguement, no fights, no fuss!!
