Dreams Riviera Cancun - Brides post here (new thread) - Page 515

 I am getting married at the resort Nov 19, 2011. We just booked our room and airfare... we went with the honeymoon suite, but from what I have now read, we should have upgraded to the Master Suite? Does anyone have pics or advice on the two different room types?

Thanks

We actually booked the honeymoon suite, but were given the Preferred Master Suite as an automatic upgrade with the 3G promotion that Dreams is running right now. If you are working with a travel agent, they should be able to arrange this for you. I know there was a minimum of rooms you had to book to qualify for the upgrade, and we have 55 people coming to give you an idea.

The difference between the Honeymoon Suite and garden room is it has 1 King bed, larger, Oceanfront and has a Jacuzzi outside.
The Master Suite has  a separate bedroom, living and dining area, small kitchenette, jacuzzi outside, and is oceanfront.It is much bigger at 1267 sq ft.

Hope that helps! Can't believe we leave on Monday!!

Hello,

According to my TA, the chuppah is not included.  it was going to be about 2500 to rent so we just went with the gazebo.  

Good luck!

For those who want to put a touch of color to the actual pool gazebo

Hey Ladies,

   For anyone who has been down to the resort lately- how is the weather during the day and night?  Temperature?  Windy?  Getting married in about 6 weeks and trying to get an idea of what to expect!  Thanks in advance!

What is this 3G promotion that is mentioned?  I'm curious...any info is appreciated! Thanks

Has anyone used the resorts DJ, I wanted an outside DJ but they wanted to charge me $500.

The weather is warm during the day - 25-29 degrees celsius, but you will need a sweater/pants at night because it does get quite chilly. 

1537 did not have a plunge pool. THe only rooms that have a plunge pool are the ones that are on the ground floor. 1537 was on the 5th floor. Many of the rooms had a jacuzzi on the balcony though .... ours unfortunately didn't, but almost everyone in our party had a jacuzzi in their room and on the balcony! 

I would put all of your questions in one email and number them. The wedding coordinator will get back to you with answers whenever they get a chance (Don't expect it to be right away!). I didn't start talking regularly with the wedding coordinator until about 2-3 weeks before the wedding ... If I had to do it again, I would just wait until I got there!

Thank you for the response.  Your room 1537, did it have a plunge pool?  When did you start emailing your coordinator about all the wedding details?  I asked my TA but she hasn't given me the name of my wedding coordinator at Dreams yet b/c she said they are going through some changes. 

 

Thank you:)

I got the Pashmina's downtown Toronto in Chinatown. I think I ended up being able to talk the guy into giving them to us for $3.50 each and this was the cheapest I was able to find. 

 

We stayed in room 1537. It was a nice room and had a good view of the ocean. We did not spend much time in the room so I am glad that we didn't upgrade but it might be nice to do if you plan on getting ready in your room. I got ready in one of my bridesmaids rooms because it was closer to the gazebo ... All of the rooms are beautiful and I don't think you will be disappointed at all!
