The Worst Wedding

Nothing is worse than having your wedding at one of those 'All Inclusive Hotels'. You might as well marry in a busy supermarket where the customers are busy with their groceries. Here it is, your wedding. You have to be on spot at 10 am and off no later than 10:20. Miss your times and your wedding is postponed to the end of the line or another day. While you are having your ceremony, guests at the hotel are living their lives. They are running shouting, calling their children, laughing, so your guests can't hear the vows you are taking. Your wedding dinner is booked at one of the eateries. If your timing is bad, it is at the Tex-Mex poison parlour. The guests are not having a fun time. They are probably hot, uncomfortable, squashed in some corner to be isolated from the guys playing football, the mothers chasing their kids, and all the other activities at the All Inclusive. Better you book a minor guest house where your rule for the lenght you desire than be on a conveyor belt, having to 'get on' at this time, 'get off' at that time, etc.

you should enjoy your day when you marry and not be on the dot as always

@rakski a friend of mine who has $$ was planning to do his wedding at an all inclusive, and I begged him not to. He went to a guest house, and that wedding was fantastic! He virutally owned the guest house, and it was perfect. Everything was how he and his bride wanted it.

It doesn't seem to me the perfect place to marry.

@jaylar I believe it is, especially if more than one wedding is happening at the same time.

@nela13 I was at an all inclusive a couple of years ago. Lot of noise on the beach, people shouting, and there was this bride and groom over there getting married in the noise. "Joey! Get Ovr here!" "Run back Tommy..." "Andi so I told her that....." On and on and there they were in the middle of it

I wouldn’t have the money to have my wedding at one of those resorts, or even go fly to one as a guest.

a lot of people do...they see it as cheaper than rent this hall, buy this food, etc.

@grenery8 oh yeah..but you have to see the hype... if you do a search you'll get all kinds of staged images and the price, for example; Royalton Negril, Jamaica: Offers wedding packages ranging from $999 for 10 guests to $11,199 for 40 guests

it is. I was amazed that anyone would want this kind of wedding. Imagine a beach full of people living their lives and in this little corner, a wedding.. Not separate, in the midst. I tell you I couldn't believe I was seeing a wedding...
