SO frustrated with my resort now...

I really wish I could change locations but I already sent booking information to my guests!!! 

As anyone ever done that before? Switched after already giving guests some information? My wedding isn't till 4/22/13

I really don't want to have to switch. I feel like it will inconvenience my guests

Re: SO frustrated with my resort now...

  • I haven't done so myself but they still have plenty if time and as long as no one has booked, I'd make sure of that first, I don't see it being an issue. Just make sure and send out something, whether in email or postcard type format, to let them know about the change immediately. How did you send out the previous info?

  • If you really want to switch, I think you have plenty of time to alert your guests and to make sure that they know what's going on.

    If your resort has upset you already, I'd probably switch.

  • What happened with the resort to make you want to switch?  I think that there is still time to do that.  Did you go through a TA?  If you did you could make sure if anyone calls to make the reservations to let them know that the venue has changed.

  • I agree with previous posts...let all of your guests know immediately.  If they are anything like my guests, they probably haven't even started doing the research they need to book the trip.  You should be okay to make the change, it's not like you are taking it to a whole new island, it's just the venue, right? I am also curious as to what happened if you don't mind spilling the beans :-)

  • I agree with Faith, if your resort has already upset you this early in the game, consider it a warning and take care of it now before it actually is too late to switch!
  • Yikes! Being upset already isn't a good sign at all. I agree with PP's that you have plenty of time to swtich and let your guests know.

  • I'm getting married the same day and I feel the same way about my resort! We, and many of our guests, have already booked though so it's too late for us.

  • I agree as well you shouldn't let it slide if they have upset you now before the wedding you don't want this to impact your wedding day no added stresses needed.  it's time to alert your guests just do so soon
  • Hi everyone, 

    Thanks so much for the advice. I really am leaning towards switching the resort. If I were going to do it would definitely still be on the same island though. 

    Basically, to make a long story short, the wedding coordinator has a bad attitude, prices keep randomly chaning ot be more expensive which is screwing up my budget and for some reason they can't send me any other pictures of ceremony locations on the resort other than a close up shot of the gazebo.

  • Yes, I was going to get married at Beaches Negril in April 2013 but switched in May of this year.... I figured it'd be less stressful if I went another route.  I had sent my STDs with my wedding website.  The STDs didn't have the location other than the city and country.... and no one had booked so it wasn't a big deal.  I switched to a private villa wedding in the same city so it still wouldn't have been that big of a deal if they had booked especially since their deposits would've been fully refunded so far out.  Just let them know you're available (or your travel agent is) to help them with any accomodation questions.
