BD Pictures are boudoir pictures... you can give them to your hubby just before you get married, and they are sexy lemme tell ya! They are tastefully done, with lingerie or partially nude if you so desire! There are examples in the general information section of the site, under photos and something else! Let me know if you want to see pics of the huppa, and leave me your email so I can send em Hey I was reading your thread...can you email me the pic you have of the beach setup...im heading down in two weeks to get married and still deciding on things very last min for me! [email protected] thanks a bunch! have you decided on your menu? im having hard time deciding what to go with....im doing the same thing as you...dinner...drinks then heading to the disco!

As for gifts, I am stumped myself other than I am ordering travel mugs for everyone and trying to figure gifts for our wedding party... so much freakin $$$! You must be very excited! I am starting to get nervous for mine, so I can't imagine how you feel right now... are you doing a symbolic or civil? Hey TAM Thanks for the advice! Im super excited except I really did not think of any of the little detials yet ... not sure what im going to do about the decor. Im doing a symbolic ceremony...seems like the easy way to do it. My coordinator Carolina has been awesome so far...im still in the process of confirming menus and photography. Have you looked into the above yet?

ADVICE PLEASE!...Hi everyone, Im heading to Dreams in less then 19 days to get married and super excited I need some ideas for gifts for guests and also wording for thanks you cards...any ideas I was thinking maybe ill get something from a flea market since im in Punta Cana 5 days before I marry. Does anyone know if the hotel offers decor for the reception? My wedding coordinator has been awesome so far but takes a while to respond to my emails. Any help would be great! thanks!

I have a picture and I will try to upload it now I just saw your post and noticed that you have the same idea I have...my wedding shoes are also apple green. When are you getting married?

Thanks for the info ACH2009! Hey...Im having a symbolic ceremony in November and they told me that the coordinator will be preforming it in English...they also said we can write what we wish for them to say if we choose to.

Does anyone have any pictures they can share that were taken by the resort photographer at Dreams ... thanks!

Thanks everyone great advice...im thinking im better off doing the private dinner never thought about getting the complimentary package and adding things to it .... good idea! Did you decide this all the day you meet with the coordinator? so many things to think about but your right its not going to cost as much as a wedding at home would be !!!!!

DreamsBride09, Thanks for the review!!!!! helps when you read recent wedding reviews. Do you know what options you have if you choose not to do a private reception. Just thinking its pretty expensive to have a private dinner when your guests already paid for all inclusive...are the resturants available for dinner? Also, im going with the hotel photographer were you happy with their work? and did they give you a CD of pictures so you can take them home and print them yourself? thanks for your time!

We were able to keep our cost equal to the ultimate package but for twice as many people. Thanks for the advice....that sounds like a great idea since I plan to have over 20 people also...if you dont mind can I see some of your pictures...you can email them to [email protected]

wow thanks for the review....glad to hear that you had a great wedding...im pretty excited!!!!! just a question ... did you think it was worth choosing the complimentary wedding package and adding what you wanted its seems that it would be more expensive then just going with the ultimate package....im still trying to decided which one to go with!

Hey would love to see some pictures of your wedding at dreams...I jsut confirmed Nov 27th and trying to decide on which wedding package and reception location to choose...any advice If you want to send pics here is my email [email protected]

I also had a hard time confirming dates with the coordinator at Dreams...I also felt stressed and confused! So I decided to buy a couple calling cards and tried to call them every hour or so....I spoke with the hotel reception and told them that it was urgent and that I had to speak to a wedding coordintor. I actually got one of the coordinators on the phone and was able to confirm the date...menus and reception locations were sent to me with a confirmation email for the symbolic ceremony. I beleive you do all the other stuff when you arrive ... they are pretty busy with weddings all day so thats why they are so hard to get a hold of. If you go to the dreams website sign up on the forum there are a couple people that can help you connect with someone if you still feel stressed!

For the ladies that are planning a wedding at Dreams Punta Cana...im looking for a destination for my Nov 2009 wedding as I orginally choose Mexico and now have to begin the research again for other places Does anyone have the contact email for the wedding coordinator...or any pictures of what the wedding would look like at Dreams...please let me know if you have any advise. Thanks

hey im looking for a new destination location....Mexico was the first pick...but with everything going on i think i need a plan B! Does anyone have the contact email for the coordinator at Dreams Punta Cana?

Hi just want to introduce myself to the site! I recently got engaged and thinking of a destination wedding for early Jan 2010! somewhere in Mexico...still undecided where it will be.
