Pinata at Dreams?

So I just thought it would be fun to have all of my guests get tipsy with drinks and try to break a big pinata full of fun toys! Has anyone done this.....better ? would Dreams let us do this somewhere.

hi there! yes, Dreams will let you have a Piñata. Where are you having your reception?

I had a Piñata hung from the palm trees on the upper level of the Cascadas terrace (far right) for a recent wedding and it worked out fine.. a few things to consider;

Setup - be sure to let the hotel know far in advance you are planning on doing this and also that you'll need their help setting it up.

Lighting - Make sure that the hotel installs extra spot lights in the area you choose to hang the piñata..

Execution - you will likely need someone from your group or from the hotel to help with 'handling' the cord of the piñata.

Safety - ahhh... this is an important one.. you may want to schedule the piñata smacking earlier than later as tipsy guests and a hard, wooden pole are not a good combo!

I like the idea for the welcome dinner! So fun!

It will be great for your welcome party! give your guests a taste of Mexico, you know? hmm... I see a theme.. LOL

Best of luck!

They had a pinata setup near the front lobby. They played some games then asked the honeymooners to stay.. we got to wack at the pinata.. it was really fun.

But I'm sure your setup would be more private.

i just photographed a bridal party this weekend the day before the wedding in florida and they had... ummm... a well ill just call it a peni-ata... it was filled with candy and condoms. it was too funny. i think the guests would have a hay day with a pinata.

Just thought of something else.. are you planning on getting the piñata when you get here or will your WC purchase it for you ahead of time?

I ask because although you will find piñatas almost anywhere in Cabo, they are mostly the birthday party kind... If you want the traditional star-shaped piñatas (like the one in the photo posted by cheese_diva) you may need to order it in advance in which case you may even be able to specify the colors used! too cool and inexpensive! hope this helps.
