    Default Has anyone gotten the "One Love" wedding package and been satisfied?

    We are getting married at CSS in August 2012 and I am really considering just getting the cheapest wedding package, the "One Love" package. I was wondering if there are any brides who have gotten this package with no regrets? I know it doesn't come with a whole lot, but I figured the natural beauty of the resort and beach will be enough to make it a gorgeous wedding. I only saw pictures on the site of the Celestial wedding and the Tropical wedding. They looked amazing so I was worrying that the One Love wedding may not be as gorgeous. Also, if anyone has pics of their One Love wedding I would be happy to see them!

    Thanks so much!

    We did the free wedding package at CSA and were very satisfied. It was a second marriage for both of us. We did splurge for the DVD and it turned out awesome. We watch the video wayyyy more than we look at our album. I was also very satisfied with my pink orchids . They were gorgeous. CSS is such a beautiful resort, you made an awesome decision. If you are looking for a beautiful simple wedding, I think you will be happy.

    We also got the cheapest package and were completely satisfied. The only things we added were the cheapest photo package, and upgraded the bouquet (only because I wanted a blue bouquet since part of my dress was blue). You are right in thinking the atmosphere will be enough!

    I also got the OneLove package at CSS and was very happy with it. I did do upgrades. I had the steel drum, brought my own real touch bouquet, upgraded the arch, and brought some decorations for the chairs. We also had cocktail hour. We had 8 guests with us. But these were our choice the package alone with the beauty of the surroundings would be enough

    We did the free package at CSS and were completely satisfied. The resort is gorgeous and makes a wonderful wedding setting. They make everything so stress free and you feel like royalty.

    Here is a picture of the arch they set up on the beach for our ceremony. You can also choose to get married in the gazebo, which has a fantastic view. The flowers were part of the package, but they also offer other types of flowers. (I paid extra for the flowers in my hair. I think it was around $10.) For the beach ceremonies, they set up a reception area near the edge of the beach - you will have cake and wine. They give you three cake choices.

    We used the resort photographer, Jerome, and he was great! He was so nice and funny. We gave him a list of photos we wanted and he took all those, plus the ones he normally takes. Make sure to walk around the resort before your wedding and pick out places you want to have photos taken.

    We have other pictures, but this is the only wedding photo I had on my computer at work. (Yes, I'm day dreaming about CSS while waiting for the Thanksgiving holiday to begin!) If you want to see other photos, email me at carolinagirl0306@gmail.com

    We went with the one love package that was free with the stay and everything was beautiful. It was so easy to plan. The ceremony last around seven mintues and then we cut the cake and drank!

    We did the one love package at CSS and it was wonderful. I made my bouquet because I was afraid I wouldnt be able to pick in a short time frame and I had a few decorations I wanted. Karla and the chef were wonderful and everyone was great. I love them and the wedding is still like a dream. everything I ever wanted!! you wont be disappointed. I would suggest photography we had Diana Campbell and I still get emotional watching the video. You will love it.

    We were married at CTI, was happy with everything except the flowers...they were out of orchids so I had yellow roses, which I didn't like! If I would have known that, I would have def upgraded the flowers to something else. Everything else was perfect though!!

    We did the One Love on the beach and it was absolutely perfect. We picked our own music and the photo's we wanted. We were thrilled when we came around the corner and saw that the gazebo was decorated for us. Nothing we ordered but loved it. The flowers on it were gorgeous! Tried to upload pics but to no avail.

    My husband and I are celebrating our 30th Anniversary this year and I booked the "One Love" package at CTI on the 27th of March. I am totally surprising him and looking for ideas for the surprise...............We are more in love now, I believe, then the day we were married. I hope it is all that I have read about, I want this to be a very special day for us.

    So we are aiming to go with the One Love package. It turns out we have several family members who want to come with us but will be staying at Beaches to give us some privacy. Does the One Love package or any of the packages include guest passes?

    Great picture T.O.&Mia

    Christy, my husband and I just returned from CTI yesterday and we did the One Love March 27th and it was absolutely beautiful......The cake, flowers, minister, message and breakfast in bed the next morning, it was all and more then we expected. We also booked the private island dinner which was amazing.
