Timeshare resorts are not "event" sites... (by KC):

Do the resorts have someone like an event planner to do things for their global clientele travelling from around the world?

I want the resort to take care of most of the details.

Timeshare resorts, except for those relatively few which have a separate, affiliated "hotel" facility which is not associated with timeshare ownerships, are NOT in the business of hosting or planning "events" (...including weddings). Accordingly, timeshare facilities do not have "event planners" on staff.

A resort may cooperate to some limited extent with some third party that YOU hire (...i.e., YOU pay) to handle all of the wedding details, but rest assured that otherwise a timeshare resort is NOT going to be the least bit interested in handling ANYTHING associated in any way with your function. That's simply not the role or function of a timeshare facility manager, who is there to manage the property on a daily basis for the owners (not to be a part time "event planner"). Management duties and responsibilities most certainly do NOT include "event planning". Moreover, keep in mind that it is highly unlikley that ANY particular space on the resort site can ever be exclusively allocated just to your wedding, since ALL other owners present on site to use their owned week(s) must always have equal access to anywhere and everywhere on the facility while physically present to use and enjoy their owned week(s).
