Refund policies vary by resort, but most wedding package deposits are non-refundable, while room block deposits are often refundable under certain conditions.
Wedding Package:
Initial deposit is typically non-refundable once paid
Some resorts allow full refunds if canceled 6+ months before the wedding
Policies vary depending on the resort and package
Room Block:
Initial deposit is often refundable while confirming minimum rooms
Once contracts are finalized, full cancellation may incur penalties
