My husband and I are from Texas, and we had our destination wedding at the Grand Lucayan in November 2015. We had about 30 guests who came with us from Texas. All planning was done via e-mail/telephone, and we had never seen the resort in person before we arrived for our long wedding weekend. Cora was our wedding coordinator, and she was outstanding! Really great communication the entire way through. She prompted us when we needed to make decisions, answered our millions of questions, was very flexible when we asked for something to be changed, and truly made sure everything was great the whole way through. The ceremony and reception set up were both just as I had envisioned and discussed with Cora, as were the flowers, decorations, cake and food. All perfect. The one tip I would give you if you are considering booking with the Grand Lucayan - find a videographer on your own rather than using the one included with the package. It wasn't terrible - they captured the ceremony, our vows, and the wedding party speeches, which is what I really cared about. However, they made some strange editing decisions like weird angles, shifting between one angle and another at random, focusing on me trying to get hair out of my mouth and making awkward faces for a solid minute. Also, we used our own photographer, so I can't speak to the quality of the photography included in the package. Overall, it was a truly wonderful experience. I just wish I could go back and live it all over again!

Overall, everything was great. Jennifer and Lisa K. helped with all the preparations. We were able to customize as we saw fit. Lisa made the arrangements with the florist, music, cake, and decorations--all of which we selected. She also helped with the rehearsal dinner and day-after brunch. We were pleased. One negative was that there was another event nearby during our ceremony and reception that was very loud. Lisa made them turn the volume down on their audio system so that was taken care of.
