Key West Weddings

[macgirl]

Has anyone heard of these guys? I called them and they sounded great, and there pics look pretty good. I'm still exploring all the options for our wedding, and these guys charge $500 vs. the $1200 RR charges, and he said he'd give me all the negatives and/or a CD, whatever I wanted (I'd rather digital for sure).

 

Anyone have any opinions? We are just looking for something simple, and this sounds simple. They do weddings for cruise people all the time. Seems like such a much more reasonable cost.

I'm doing a Key West wedding as a port stop too.

 

I opted out of doing a RR wedding because I heard they were not the most organized or communicative people (it's a company RR contracts with, not an in-house org as I understand it). Organization and communication are very high on my list, so that scared me.

 

Anyhow, they seem like one of the more well-known all-inclusive vendors; I did tons of research and found many links to package wedding sites:

Some may be better than others, I don't know. I opted to organize my own and having it at the Hyatt.

 

Also, take a look at the Yahoo group - good information there on locations and vendors:

Good luck with your planning, let us know what you decide :)

Hi Scottish Flower - how is the Key West wedding planning going? I'm still trying to decide what to do. Just curious why you decided to organize your own wedding vs. using one of the vendors??

 

Maybe I could look into doing this, too, but I don't know where to start. Do you have any advice?

 

If you want, you can send me an email at: kikie_99999@yahoo.ca

 

THANKS!

Hi macgirl -

 

I think you posted at yahoo's keywestweddings group too?

 

See my response - it pretty much explains my thought process in deciding to go much of it on my own:

Feel free to email me for more info - I'm still working through a lot of the "which vendor to choose" stuff, but I have a direction now :^)

 

Have fun planning!
