We recommend to book your wedding 1 year in advance in order to obtain your preferred date and time. After you choose your package, you can check available dates and times and book your wedding. Remember that weddings are reserved on a first come, first served basis. You should receive a response from the wedding sales coordinator within 24 hours after submitting your request advising you whether your date has been confirmed or not. Your selection is confirmed only after a wedding coordinator sends you an e-mail with the confirmation and the wedding contract.

After your wedding date has been confirmed, the wedding sales coordinator will send you the wedding contract. Review it thoroughly, sign it and send it back to the coordinator. The wedding contract specifies payment and cancellation policies as well as it outlines all required documentation once again.

In addition to the wedding package, you can purchase optional services such as a private function, tuxedo rental, or music services. You must request them 30 days prior to the wedding date. You will be assigned an on-site wedding planner who will make the necessary arrangements to reserve these services. At this time you should start thinking about the type of ceremony you envision, from atmosphere to flowers, so she can better assist you in making your wishes come true.

Two (2) weeks prior to your departure to the resort, you will receive a letter from your on-site wedding planner with an appointment to meet with her to review documentation and determine any additional services you may want to purchase. This meeting lasts approximately an hour and it usually takes place the day of arrival.
