Chyna - my British friend has just got married in Negril there a couple of weeks ago so I'll get more details. She paid a pastor to marry her on the beach outside her hubby's restaurant/home (Coconut International). However it all cost so much more than she expected - in her words 'everyone wanted a slice of the pie' despite the fact they were friends/family. Her costs involved the dresses, food and drink, sound system, cake, invitations. She spent a couple of thousand pounds in all (though not sure if this involved accommodation costs for family etc) I'm sure most guesthouses and restaurants will accommodate a small wedding party but whether you go to them direct or through package deals on the internet everyone will want to profit from it and add as many extras as they can. My friend there owns a bakery and could do a cake if I ask. He was charging (before price increases) about $3000. Do you plan to go there then arrange it - or do you want it all sorted before you get there?

Tell you what - if you dont mind - I'll copy your post directly onto an email to her and get her to answer your questions.

Re: Im getting married I need ya'lls help!

Tanks Lady Sizzla! Yes my mum was saying exactly the same thing people hear 'wedding' and want to double even tripple the price instantly! I'm only 21 on minimum wage, Im having to go through ALOT to save the money to pay for this, I even have to walk to work! (3hrs a day!!) so Im sure you guys can understand were Im coming from! I cant just be shelling out! Um yes $3000 is ok for the cake, even if its a bit more but around $5000 is cool. Dang! A couple of grand and that was by family and friends?! Whoop! I have no hope lol. Thank you I would be greatful if you can find out all you can feel free to do the copy and paste thing. Its really just the LOCATION Im after still, no after paty, reception food etc just the locale! I already have a pastor or two lined up! Tanks Girlie!

erm....can I come? lol I will be in Negril then

Sounds like all you'll need is your outifts, cake, and the pastor to come to the beach. Ive seen people get married near the park on the beach with no hotels around - dead simple. Think the pastor charges about $12000 Ja.

I'm sorry I don't have a clue about anything in Mobay. I'm sure you'll get lots of help from the members on this though.
