Hi! Your wedding looked gorgeous! I was married at Dreams last June (09) and I used ALberto Miscrachi as my photographer and I STILL have not received my coffee table book so I was just wondering if you had recieved yours? I was also wondering if you had any contact information for him, I've e-mailed him several times and that hasn't seemed to work. Thanks, Kristi

Yes I got everything else...I will

I was married in June at Dreams, Alberto Misrachi was my photographer, I was supposed to recieve a coffee table book with my package and I STILL have not recieved it despite several attempts to contact him. Has anyone else had this problem...any suggestions on what I should do...I am very hesitatnt to recommend him...keep this in mind when you are choosing your photographer. If anyone has any ideas or feedback or anything please let me know! THanks, Kristi

I'm looking for decorating ideas....we have a pretty small party 10-20 people, does anybody have any ideas for decorations/center pieces for that particular spot. I want to keep it simple..but pretty, any help would be appreciated! Thanks! Kristi

THanks for your help, Any suggestions on what is good? I was leaning more towards the mexican type hor'deveurs, I'm not sure what some of it is

Does anybody have a list of the hor'd'veurs available for the cocktail hour at Dreams?? I'm having a little trouble with that, THANKS!!

Do you have a list of the hor'd'veurs by any chance, I asked her for a list but I never really got one......and is there an appetizer that you would recommend?

Thank You so much, that really helps!!

Hello, I'm trying to make my food selections and I haven't gotten a straight answer on how many items to pick. I was told for the cocktail party 3 cold and 3 hot items. For the appetizer and dessert do you just pick one? And for the main course do you just pick one thing, or can you do fish and chicken I just don't know, anyway any help on that would be very appreciated! Thanks!! KRisti

I'm getting married at Dreams in June, just a few questions: 1) How was the mexican trio?? How long do they play for? 2) We are planning on having a welcome cocktail party which one of the hotel bars would you recommend for a good atmosphere?? Any input would help, THANKS!! Kristi

Any input on Tomas Baron, Alberto Miserachi or Mango Productions I was told these three were the only ones that would honor the pictures that come with the Ultimate Package.....although I was wanting to pay to have more taken, I would love any input, thanks!

I was just wondering as far as the OOT bags go, is it easier to put them together before you go or wait until you get there.....and as far as getting the items there....is checking the items for the flight an easy task, I didn't know if they would hassle you about it or not with all of the regulations they have now, or has anybody shipped it to the hotel ahead of time? Any input would be great!

Going with the flow is something i can definately do! Thanks for the advice! Kristi

Sorry if this comes up twice......we set our date for June 18, 2009 at Dreams! The question of financial responsibilities has come up since this is not a traditional wedding. Who is responsible for what?! We are having a reception when we come back for our friends and family who can't make it, would it be had etiquette for the brides family to pay for the wedding and the grooms family to pay for the reception? Any ideas or advice would be appreciated!! Thanks Kristi

The date and location have been set, June 18, 2009 Dreams!! A question that has come up is since this is not a traditional wedding....what is the bride responsible for and what is the groom responsible for?? A thought....We are having a reception when we get back for friends and family that can't make it, would it be ok...proper for the brides family to pay for the wedding and the grooms for the reception....what is the proper etiquette Any ideas would be helpul! Thanks- Kristi

About swimming....honestly at most of the beaches it's swim at your own risk....and when you see the way the waves break along the shore you probably would think twice about it. THe undertoe isn't quite as bad at the resorts closer to town (closer to the marina). It's gorgeous and really neat to watch though! It is possible to swim....you just have to be a really strong swimmer....and not panic when it pulls you out.

Hi! I can definately relate, I was looking into the Riu Palace for a beach ceremony also after recently staying there but ultimately decided to go with Dreams. THe property is very nice but I just couldn't find enough reviews/pictures to convince myself to book it there. There isn't an area of the beach that is very private at the Riu so basically anybody that is in the infinity pools looking over the beach can see whats going on. I read in a review that people in the pool were yelling during the ceremony etc... It's a really beautiful property and would be a great place for a wedding, that may have just been one instance. I definately wanted to have my wedding there after staying there but like I said I just couldn't find enough about the wedding aspect of it...and there is a ton of information and pictures about Dreams.....anyway I don't know if that helps you at all. Good Luck! kristi

I'm in a bit of a predicament and could definately use some help! I have recently returned from vacation in Cabo while I was there we stayed at the Riu Palace which was fabulous...but we already had a date reserved at Dreams. We went on a site visit and weren't as impressed as we were with Riu Palace. So we were wanting to change our plans. I've read a lot of really good things about Dreams and seen some of the amazing pictures, but it seems like there are a lot of extra's thrown in there that you end up paying for and it is not as close to town. But with Riu you have to pay extra for photographers etc.. to come on site....I'm just really torn between the two at this point and have ABSOLUTELY no idea what to do. I just want it to be perfect for us and our guests....like i'm sure all of you do. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks....Dazed and Confused CC, TX

Wow am I glad I found this....My name is Kristi I'm from Corpus Christi, TX and I am attempting to plan a destination wedding in Cabo at either Dreams or Riu Palace for June 09'......The date is yet to be determined depending on which location I choose. I've heard a lot of good things about Dreams and seen a lot of fabulous pictures, but I just retured from vacation at Riu at it was pretty fabulous as well....so any help on this would be greatly appreciated
