We had a great trip to St Lucia! We went to Sandals Grande St. Lucian and loved it. By staying in the Concierge level room we were able to get free room service 24 hours a day and also had a bar in our room stocked with various liquor, champange, soda, bottled water, and juice. It was nice being able to take bottled water with us to the pool if we wanted to do so.
The wedding coordinators were great! My only real complaint is that we felt a bit misinformed about the layout of the ceremony and would have preferred a generic practice, even if it was just with the wedding coordinator. Little things like I didn't know that we weren't going to take the wedding bands at the same time. Not a big deal but I would have been a little more comfortable having a generic rehearsal when we met the wedding coordinator the day before. Also, Gene didn't realize that he was going to have to give a toast to his new bride which kind of left him a bit out of place but he managed to get something off that we'll laugh at for years to come. All we were told for this part is that the groom would say something. Guess we should have asked more questions. All of this was very trivial and honestly the wedding went off without a hitch. Just things I wish I had known in advance.
We're definitely planning on going back to St. Lucia at some point, maybe to stay in the same resort. The resort was full but we didn't feel like it was overcrowded which is what I was afraid of when I realized that the resort was full before we left. Plenty of beach chairs by the beach and pool. Towels weren't too big of an issue. Usually you could get one about 30 min after they ran out because they had just come back from the laundry from being washed.
Hopefully I'll get a chance to write more at some point. Had a fabulous time and can't wait to go back!
