Just so you all know, when Sandals advertises themselves as a "couples only" resort, they really mean "straight couples only." Gay couples are not welcome.

Hi Cara, I've just booked my wedding for March 2001 and my parents are staying in another resort and the brochure states that non Sandals guests can only stay on resort for one and a half hours - do you know what the additional fee is for them to stay for the remainder of the day - we're also thinking of organising a day pass for them for the day before - what do you know about this? <BR>Also, were there lots of weddings going on in the same day? <BR>Thanks in advance for all your answers.. Clare.

The fee when I got married at Sandals in February was $115- and it says on the paper day pass,so that must mean all day.I don't know if it has changed since,but it sounds crazy that they can only stay an hour and a half. Everyone was really nice to us so there shouldn't be a problem. We were there by ourselves so we really didn't look into that, but I saw other guests bringing people from home and I believe they stayed the whole day. I think they can have dinner at night with the 2 of you for $75-. We got married the day after Valentine's Day, there were 7 weddings on The 14th and I think 5 on the 15th. Then there was just a couple everyday after that. We were happy there were many because it made me less nervous. I saw them getting married so it made me a little less nervous. It was great all in all. Sandals Antigua is beautiful. The wedding coordinators are very nice. You will have a great time. Bring a cake top, and cd with your 1st dance. If you can get an early wedding it is better. We did 10:--am, less hot. Less people, I think there is a volleyball game around 3or4. And it is directly behind the gazebo so it could be noisy. Good luck email me if you have any questions. Cara
