Review about Melia
Disclaimer: This review is focused on the Romance Department at Paradisus. The hotel stay was wonderful! We just got back from our wedding at the hotel - it was amazing to have all of our family and friends in one place, celebrating our love! The one bummer was Melina, our "planner" from the hotel. We started planning this wedding about a year ago, and Melina had an absolutely disgusting attitude from the beginning. I had been a wedding planner for three years when we started our conversation with her, so it's safe to say I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted. We signed on the "Tailor Made Package" which was supposed to be all inclusive - food, alcohol, decor, etc. but everything we discussed was an extra charge or a problem to do. Not to mention that TWO HOURS before my wedding Melina came up to me and said we don't have any flowers!!! I was extremely stressed so she put some cheap looking flowers in the vases I bought. We spent about $2,000 on vases for the flowers and the next day Melina said she had no idea where any of them were. At 10 pm of the wedding reception Melina unplugged our music and demanded we pay her cash to keep the party going. These are just the highlights of my experience with the awful woman who thinks she can call herself a wedding planner. I would never ever want another bride to feel the way I felt throughout the process and wedding day.
