Karen you are going to LOVE him! Honestly he is so much fun and such a nice guy. Plus he's obviously incredibly talented. His passion will rub off on you! I can't wait to see how your pics turn out!

Thanks everyone else for the photo love! Fer gets all the credit

I also should add that I likely wouldn't have been able to hire Fer without the help of Morgan and Tammy from BDW...Morgan donated her free 3-night Dreams stay to me so that Fer could use it for his trip to Cabo, and Tammy made it all happen. I know I've said it before, but you ladies are amazing and I owe you so much!

Hi there, and welcome!

Before I switched to Dreams, I was planning my wedding at the Fiesta Americana (in the Imperial Suite). It's a gorgeous property but the prices are a little crazy, and they aren't great with negotiating. If you have the money though, your wedding will be amazing! There is no way to get around the music curfew - it's a Los Cabos law, not just the Fiesta Americana. You will find the same rule at all Cabo resorts.

Search the forum as a couple of brides have had their wedding at the FA, and you'll find lots of reviews and pictures on here.

Happy Planning!

I wanted to review my photographer separately, because he was the best decision we made for our wedding.

After I had a rocky experience with the first photographer I hired, I decided to forfeit my deposit and go on the hunt for a new one. As soon as I saw Fer’s website and blog, I knew he was the photographer for us. I can’t even put into words how amazing Fer is and how unbelievably blown away by him we are. He went WAY above and beyond what we hired him for, and his pictures are like nothing I’ve ever seen. I couldn’t be happier with our choice. He is such an incredibly friendly and upbeat guy as well – he got along great with all of our wedding guests, and everyone was as blown away with him as we were. After he finished shooting our reception, he went and put together a slideshow and screened it for all of our guests in the disco about an hour later. It was amazing. The slideshow has over 250 awesome pictures – I can’t wait to see the rest he took! He has so much passion for what he does, and it totally shows. He was a pleasure to work with and I wish we had a reason for him to come shoot us again, because he’s just that good! I recommend him 100000%!

I mean what other photographer would lie down in the middle of a busy Cabo highway just to get a shot?! (click on the pick to make it bigger if it's showing up small).

Here are some of the teasers he has sent us so far:

I love Fer, and if you hire him, you will love him too!

I love everything! Your inspiration board is gorgeous and all of your stuff fits in perfectly with that, so I know your wedding will be beautiful. I can't wait to see how it all comes out! Have a great time!

My faves were:

Chips and guac (obviously)

Margherita pizza at the poolside restaurant for lunch

Creamy tomato soup and caprese salad at Portofino - also the cheese tortellini

Pancakes for breakfast!

Me tooooooo!

Tammy - the tortilla soup is SO GOOD! Also I loved the creamy tomato soup at Portofino.

I agree that the steaks are sooooo good at Dreams as well; I'm a steak snob and it was the of the better ones I've had.

Wow, I can't believe they broke into safes! That is so awful! I'm glad you warned other brides. Congrats on your wedding.

M and his mom danced to "Unforgettable" - it was her choice.

Carly - the CB2 one posted above is the one we used to have until about a month ago! You can see it in my facebook pics - "home sweet home" if you want to see what it looks like in a "real" room. I still have the pillow shams if you want them, they are in great shape.

Congrats Katie, and welcome to the forum! I just got married in Cabo last month, at Dreams, and it was perfect! Watch for my review to pop up over the next week or so

WOW! I love alllll of your stuff! Your gifts are amazing. Have a great time!

I think Montreal probably gets a mix of overcast AND sunny. It's kinda impossible to predict! I think a white Christmas isn't guaranteed but it snows more often than not. I don't think this helped at all! Hehe sorry...

Awwww, this is horrible! Thanks for informing - I will keeping my eyes and ears open. I hope she returns home safely...

Congrats and welcome to the forum! I just got married in Cabo a few weeks ago and it was the best time EVER! Happy planning!

What an awesome review - wow, you did a great job! You looked beautiful, and I loved your reception set-up with the dance floor and light-up tables! Gorgeous!

Congrats Mrs!

Holy moly, you were thorough! That will be tough for the other girls to follow up I love all of your stuff. Obvi I love your ring (hehe) and I love the little ring bearer outfit. I can't wait to see what Dazzling Details comes up with! You are going to have the best wedding ever!

Nat - I LOVE your story so much! And the pics are adorable. We have similar rings - mine was modeled after the Novo as well.

I love that he planned an engagement party without you knowing! That's my fave. You guys are the cutest couple!

I love the book Abbie! You looked awesome and the book was put together perfectly. I'm now drooling over those cupcakes. Yum!

You should be able to get a free upgrade to a honeymoon suite by holding your wedding there. Most Dreams Cabo brides I know had this (including myself). Just ask your WC at Dreams. I think it was definitely worth it as we had a lot of extra stuff, and the additional room in the suite came in handy for sure.

They're great! You guys are such a cute couple. I love the skate park/graffiti ones.

Jealous Ana!!!!

Wow Michelle, the slideshow is great! You looked so, so beautiful. I love the ceremony set-up, and the chivari chairs at the reception with the long table...gorgeous. Congratulations! Definitely worth the wait!

My hugest stresses were getting people to RSVP and book (again, we had a number of people saying "we'll be there" but I never really believed it until they booked). Even so, a number of people booked on their own and were doing different travel dates so it was tough for me to organize the one group activity I wanted to do (sunset cruise) because I didn't know who was there on what day. It ended up working out but we paid for like 10 extra people on the sunset cruise than we needed to (no-shows). Oh well.

The RSVP situation also made it really hard to budget since we had no idea what our final number would come in at, and everything is pretty much based on a per-person cost. I just picked my best guest and used that and hoped it wouldn't be more.

My last stress was my irrational fear of people not having a good time. I just really wanted to make sure that everyone would feel that the trip was worth it and that they didn't spend all that money to go to Cabo for nothing! It was a dumb fear though. Our guests are all amazing and super fun and that made the week one of the best weeks for everyone who went I think. People are still talking about it now and everyone wants to go back to Dreams again next year!

Yikes Jess - sorry you aren't happy with Dreams. We thought it was amazing and all of our guests loved it as well. Hopefully your day will turn out great regardless.
