wow-I am a little upset that you had so many issues with your wedding, but glad over all you had a good experience. Everything looked great and you did such a detailed review it will help all the future brides. I wonder now if I should hire an outside wedding coordinator? hmm...any suggestions? Welcome back!

I can't wait to hear how they came out either!

Cant help but I wanted to do the same thing with the first aid kits. Do you mind PMing me the template you used? TIA

Can't wait I have been waiting for your review! I know you are super detailed so I can't wait (no pun intended) to read it all! Welcome back and congratulations

Amy I am so excited for you! I can not wait to see your pictures!!! Hope you are having an amazing time!

my TA told me the same thing which I think is weird because we are so far away still

when are you all sending out your invites? I have mine sitting in my dining room and I am not sure when to send them out. The RSVP date is March

no problem Neen! When do you leave?

FYI-I was watching the travel channel a few weeks ago and they actually rated Tulum as one of the best beaches

wow! I am very excited to get down there in 17 days for my vacation-I wonder how occupied the hotel will be. That would be awesome if we get upgraded also

Dreams is all inclusive so everything is included-drinks, food etc. If your guests are not staying at DT they will need to purchase day passes which is includes everything. for the room block you need to work with the resort and I think it is 10 rooms.

haha-i am going to be picture happy! my FI is laughing because I told him last night that I know all the girls on here are going to want me to take certain pictures and ask tons of questions! I love it-I would want someone to do it for me also! I'm keeping a talley of all the questions/requests. Since we are staying at Dreams Puerto AVenturas all the girls on that thread are asking me a million things too! I am just glad that I can help

i will take on tonight-I got them from theknot and I was really nervous but they came out way better than I expected. Is anyone doing a first aid kit? If so, what template are you using?

Girls I am doing a site visit on the 23rd for my resort! I am so excited. I hope to get a ton of my questions answered while I am there! I also just got my personalized match books the other day and they came out so cute! Mel-I totally agree that after Jan the thread is going to be super active and busy

Of course I can ask all of those things! I can not wait to be tan also-I am so pale right now that it scares me looking in the mirror

If I have it all straight, Anabel used to be at DPA or DC and Lisette was at DT. I read on here somewhere that Lisette was now at DPA or DC. Did they switch? What happened to Landy is she still going to be our coordinator? Anyway I would love for you to ask about locations for the ceremony. I really would like it on the beach, but I think I'm going to feel a bit awkward having it with people tanning in chairs right next to my wedding. Would you please ask: 1) if we are able to move the arbor/gazebo a little farther down the beach where everyone says it is secluded? 2) who performs symbolic weddings. Is it still a minister or is it her? 3) how much the photographer charges for extra time? And if you are able would you look at some of his work and tell me what you think? 4) how much are the fire dancers? 5) let me know what you think of the banquet center and the ballrooms? 6) If we can completely design our own ceremony entirely (i.e. the words that are said by the minister and the order) Thank you so much. By the way what are your colors and what are you doing for centerpieces? Alright! I wrote all the questions down I am super excited about going down there to scope it out and see what the deal is etc. I remember someone on here talking about how they had the buffet even though they didnt have 50 people-I want to see if we can do that also. As far as my centerpieces go, I haven;t really decided-I got a ton of votive candles at Ikea a few weeks ago and was thinking if we could do long tables I would want flowers in the middle with the candles. I really like blue and tan (ocean and the sand)

thanks ladies! I am so happy that I found this forum-i have no idea what i would do with out it

I am trying to find favor boxes for the cupcakes that we are ordering for the wedding...any ideas on where to get them? TIA

I know! It is crazy! I am meeting with Lizet on the 23rd at 11am to discuss options and stuff for the wedding. Does anyone want me to ask anything etc. when I meet with her

I finally got an email back from Anabel. She is the assistant to the wedding coordinators at Dreams Tulum. It took 3 emails to get a response. Her email address is [email protected] I'm not sure what happened to Liset

Mel-your invites look great!

I'll see if I can schedule a wedding when I am there I will take a ton of pictures for you ladies-dont worry! I will take pictures of the restaurants, the rooms, the beach, the pool and of course my OCD thing is nice bathrooms I am very excited to see the place-one of my friends was just in PA and she said it was so nice.

And I think the concierge's is : [email protected] I think that's the one I used when I wanted some resort related info before my wedding and they answered me pretty quickly. Thanks Sunbride-I will try emailing the concierge as well as giving them a call

I emailed everyone again today to see if I could schedule a site visit when I am down there and still no response. I am going to be down there during Xmas and I really want to check out DT...
