Dreams Riviera Cancun - Brides post here (new thread)


Recommended Posts

The garden area is gorgeous, it is in the middle of the hotel, but there is not much traffic there. While we were there for the week we never saw an actual wedding there.

 

alisonjimmy, we were never able to get ahold of Ana for any details after the deposit was taken. BUT, with that said, we met with her the day before and set all the detail up. From food to flowers, music and final decorations. Ana is very effecient with all your details. She has a check list and covers everything and pulls it off wonderfully. The girls had their make up and hair done in the salon also. The hair was just like the pictures they took with them and the makeup felt "heavy" but looks amazing in the pictures. They are not cheap, but they looked gorgeous.

Thanks for the info. We chose a DW b/c we wanted to spend $$ on vacation, not a wedding/reception...the beach wasn't the reason we wanted a DW, so I am glad to hear there may be a garden option!! My fiance owned 2 dive shops in Palm Springs for 12 years and had enough sand to last him a lifetime, and that was his ONLY request for the entire trip...NO SAND! ha ha!

Your reception is going to be amazing no matter where you have it :) The whole resort is beautiful and I'm sure she'll find you a perfect location!!!! cheer2.gif

Thanks. I know it will be great. It's just hard putting all your trust in someone and not knowing what's going on until the last minute! From all the reviews though, I know I have absolutely nothing to worry about. Yours is coming soon....

Anyone who is using the Ether frame for their sand ceremony kit (or has)...how did you glue it together? The link on the original forum is gone. Also, did you have any problem bringing it home? I wanted to use the sand from the beach but I'm afraid it won't be packed in there and it will all mesh together on the trip home. Any suggestions on how to seal it so it won't mix too much? Thank you!

The time flew by! I can't believe I'm just over two months away!
I'm with you - even though all the reviews are excellent, I still freak out! smile41.gif

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
