WINDWATCH BRIDES! (also posted on 05 brides)
don't know if anyone else is getting married at the Windwatch Resort & Hamlet Golf Club (now Hyatt Regency) but I figured I would post this.
I am getting married there this May. I booked my wedding with them in December 2003. This past summer I read about Hyatt being sold in the newspaper- never was notified by my wedding coordinator- I had to call her. I was told no changes were being done to the place except to the rooms. Well, guess what? Renovations started today and will not be complete until the end of June! I was FURIOUS. They ensure me it will not affect my wedding and renovations in May are only going to be done in hotel rooms on isolated floors. OK.
I have guests who have called this week to book reservations for the night of the wedding and they are being told 'major renovations are being done at this facility during your stay, would you still like to book?' I wanted to cry- it doesn't exactly sound nice to guests. I called and was assured again that it will only be isolated areas and my guests won't even be able to access the area and it will not disturb anyone. I don't know, I am still nervous. I mean, my parents are putting so much into this emotionally and financially and I don't want it to look like crap or cheap, ya know? My FILs decide they want to book a suite for the night- well, guess what? NO suits except mine will be accessible at that time due to RENOVATIONS. I'm so MAD!
I was out there the night of February 19th. My FI's fire department had a dinner there. I can't really complain- everything was good. The cocktail hour, the food, the service, very good. Whenever I got up from the table and came back, my chair was always pushed in, napkin folded, water glass refilled, etc. So, that was very good.
The hotel room was very nice as well.
I think thats about it- if I think of anything else, I will definitely post! I am starting to crash now, lol Time for bed.
