Holiday Inn Discount

My lovely Aunt Judy called the Holiday Inn Barrie Hotel & Conference Center and they gave her a better deal than they gave me!  Harumph.

So, I’ve called them and they’ve given me a new rate of $129.99/night.

If you would like to book, please visit this link.  You can also call 1-705-722-0555 x 0 or visit hibarrie.ca and give the code “JGW”.

Hotel Update

Everyone has been asking how the wedding plans are going, and I’m happy to finally have a couple of updates.

Firstly, and most importantly, my Aunt Marianne wins the award for “first person to book their flight”.  Hooray!  Well done, Marianne!

Secondly, there is a new Hotels page which lists the 5 closest hotels to the wedding.  I only added hotels that were rated at least 4/5 in reviews on Expedia.  We are working on getting a special wedding rate, but so far the rates I’ve been quoted aren’t stellar.  For example, a “special rate” of $140 for the Holiday Inn Barrie Hotel & Conference Centre, which is a $30 discount from their listed rate, but only a $6 discount from Hotels.com.  In conclusion, hotels are the worst and if you’re really eager to book this far in advance, you probably won’t miss out on any significant “special wedding rate” discounts.

We will keep everyone updated on our plans.  Currently, my main goal is to try to convince Dan not to book a MuchMusic Video Dance Party.
