Starting to Plan....

[AlmostMRS120713]

Hi All,

 

My fiance and I will be getting married at Secret's St. James/Wild Orchid in Montego Bay Jamaica 12/7/13.  We are so excited!  It's so nice and helpful to see everyone's comments.  Just wondering if anyone that has gotten married recently can post more pictures and talk about their experience.  I'm wondering if I should throw a welcome bonfire.  It doesn't make sense to pay what they're asking when it's already an all inclusive resort.  Just wondering if anyone has done this and what their thoughts are.  Also wondering if anyone brought their own decorations and how that worked.  Did you bring decorations for the ceremony?  If so, what did you bring.  Did you bring your own centerpieces for the tables?  I have so many thoughts and questions running through my head.  Any help/tips would be greatly appreciated.  I didn't contact the wedding coordinator since I'm still 5 months away...I figured I could ask them my questions in 2-3 months.

 

Thanks again for any help!

Congratulations on your engagement!  I'm not getting married in Jamaica, but Alexisinjamaica is our resident Secrets expert and can likely answer any number of your questions.  I would start with her planning thread (which has fabulous DIY decorations and tips):
