Just got off the phone with them b/c FH and I wanted to stay there on our wedding night. I was all ready to book when the woman informed me that i CANNOT ARRIVE IN MY WEDDING GOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
***!! I won't be arriving until 1am!! So I told her to cancel the reservation...
I was so psyched to stay there and now I'm bummed out...

That's weird. I wonder why they have that policy.

It's probably because you may run into the other bride and since they are a 1 wedding at a time place (and guarantee their brides that)...she may get upset. Also because they cannot guarantee that you really will show up that late. They are probably protecting themselves.

Re: Oheka Castle for Wedding Night
I totally understand why-b/c people pay $10,000 for the site fee you are guaranteed to have the place all to yourself and I would feel the same way-I wouldn't want to run into another bride. Still...i am a little bummed out b/c I was really looking forward to staying there.

Re: Oheka Castle for Wedding Night
yes marcela i tried the garden city hotel but i didn't really like their suite. i just booked the inn at fox hollow but we may end up staying in the city too. if anything i can always cancel up to 24 hours before.

Re: Oheka Castle for Wedding Night
oh wow - i didnt know that - that does kinda suck that you cant go with your wedding dress... I've got to tell FH that he shouldnt look into it then - FH is surprising me with this - he is wont even give me a hint - i think its in the city - might be the Pierre Hotel because we had originially wanted to get married there - but i still have no clue

Even though I could understand their policy, I can imagine you must be disappointed!
Don't worry, your night will be great regardless of where you stay!

Re: Oheka Castle for Wedding Night
I'm even surprised that they would give you a room if there was a wedding that evening. My girlfriend is getting married there and she has the whole castle to herself (including the rooms). I would assume that is why OHEKA is $$$$$$.

Re: Oheka Castle for Wedding Night
Why dont you just change out of your dress after your reception and into something more comfortable. Thats what I am doing before we go into the city for the night
