I had heard if they showed up just before the ceremony they didn't pay as we were already paying for the food etc I sent a friendly email to my guests saying if they did not stay at the resort they would be responsible for paying this fee. I have given my guests sufficient time to book.

My point is .....That is the reason it is rainy season so time of day will not help you. If its going to rain its not a specific time of day.

So glad I read this! I am soooo guilty!

Take it from someone from New orleans who knows a thing or two about hurricanes..August/September is peak hurricane season. The gulf and Caribbean waters are warm and there are favorable conditions for hurricanes or even tropical storms. As you know, they can even come in July but in August and September your rain chances increase as a result of this.

I had a disaster when getting started with my TA. I since have fired her and hired Jill one of the ladies on the forum and I have to say she is AWESOME! Right on top of it all. PM me for more info.

We had about 60 people on the boat and everyone had such a wonderful time. The people at Aquaworld were very great and professional. I would definitely recommend them. Ooh a welcome cruise! That sounds like an awesome idea!

Is this Adults only??

I am being charged out the a** for every little thing. The least they can do is throw the kids a freaking chicken finger!!!

I know there is a girl on the forum getting married at Dreams Cancun yesterday. Can't wait to get her feedback!

Best thing to do is read through the threads for both and decide. I was not very impressed with moon Palace location and was looking for something a little more kid friendly so we went with Dreams. happy Hunting.

I've been warned it is hurricane season...I'm just gonna hope for the best on August 28, 2009! FYI..August/September is peak hurricane season for the Caribbean and Gulf Of Mexico. Honestly, there is no way to predict weather. We all just have to hope for the best. I DEFINITELY recommend purchasing Travel Insurance during those months. I purchased it and mine is in June 2009. Good Luck!
