Well now I am a little worried too Gaby was my wedding coordinator, and I have been trying to get a hold of her to see how I send my deposit. Has everyone sent their deposit for the wedding to Dreams directly, or through their travel agent? Just not sure what to do now.. she had said she wanted the deposit by March 14.. I don't want to lose my date for some reason!

Fine-Art Photographic Albums:
We have always admired the high quality of fine-art tabletop books of great photography. These custom designed CORNERSTONE™ Albums are a perfect addition to showcase your wedding story on a two-page spread.
Available sizes:
5x5 inch *** $495 ***Album start with 20 pages and approx 70 images.
Note: add 4 pages for $50
Leather cover $50
9x9 inch *** $645 ***Album start with 20 pages and approx 70 images.
Note: add 4 pages for $50
Leather cover $75
10x15 inch *** $795 ***Album start with 20 pages and approx 100 images.
Note: add 4 pages for $75
Leather cover $50 to $100 (depending on the size and number of pages)
Online Album option: 3 month online album to share with family and friends with the purchase of any Fine-Art Photographic Album. *** $99
Your album will take approximately one week for us to design. Image selection is mostly based on our own creative vision. We include photos from every portion of your day in order to encapsulate your entire wedding story into the album. Ultimately, if you like our photographic style and the sample albums online, you can expect much the same look and feel in your Cornerstone album.
Once design is complete, the album will take 2-3 weeks to be printed and delivered to your home.
Our Cornerstone Album covers are personalized for YOU! Leather is also an option that can be added for $50 to $100, depending on your album size. Leather covers are beautiful but are not customizable to include photos or text.
We do welcome your input as to what you would like in your album, but this option will cause a delay on the delivery of your album. These special requests normally can not be made until you receive your photo package from us in the mail. If you choose to go this route, we cannot begin designing your album until you have reviewed your package. This will significantly affect the delivery time of your album. We ask that you keep special requests to a minimal, as this does create alot of overhead for us. You can be assured we will include all your favorites if you want to wait for your package, or you can leave it up to us. Either way, we will delivery you an album that you will be very happy with.
Prints
We do not supply prints with our packages. A typical Full Day Package has over 1000 full resolution images supplied for you. The cost of printing out all pictures and shipping those to you from Mexico is not economical and would cause our package prices to be much higher. We suggest you have only the prints developed that you want to display and use a good quality printer. Our packages come with instructions on how to develop your pictures for best image results. This allows us to offer you the best possible value for you money.
Other services:
Engagement Shoot
- 2 to 3 hours of you and your fiance. Popular settings include 5th Avenue Playa Del Carmen and Tulum Ruins/Beach!
In Combination with Full day package, $400
Otherwise, $800.
Trash the Dress
- 2 to 3 hours "trashing" your dress after the wedding. Some popular shots are: laying together on the beach, kissing in the water, jumping in the pool, etc.
In Combination with Full day package, $400
Otherwise, $800.
Girls Day Out
- 2 to 3 hours of you and your bridesmaids having fun in the sun. Fun group shots of you and the girls on the beach, in the water, or whatever you choose!
In Combination with Full day package, $400
Otherwise, $800.
Extra Laser Inscribed DVD's
- Can be pre-ordered for $50 each
Please be sure to check with your resort about their fees and policies associated to external service providers. Our services will require you to pay for our entrance onto the resort property.
Please note: All prices are in USD (including tax)

I have sent emails to Moments that matters (just this morning.. thanks mummergirl!), Claudia Rodriguez, and Michael Maurus (Wedding Photographer for Cancun, Riviera Maya)

I have been to Cancun before (mind you it was 2005) but it was perfectly safe. Honestly it feels like you are almost in Florida or something.. it is not very Mexican at all.. and most of the stores/ restaurants are things that you would find in America. If people that are complaining about how unsafe it is, remind them of this. This is one of the reasons we chose Cancun because my FI stepmom had been to the Mayan and felt it was unsafe.. I have been to Jamaica, Hawaii and other parts of Mexico and I felt probably the most safe in Cancun even compared to Honolulu in parts..

We are thinking symbolic is easier. We don't have to prove that we are married or anything do we? We were thinking of lying to the family and saying we were getting married, not telling them it was symbolic, and doing the legal stuff when we get back, but I am worried that the resort might need something given they call it a vow renewal. Does anyone know anything about this? -

I do see what you mean! I keep trying to make everyone happy! I thought a destination wedding is supposed to be less stressful and I am more stressed because everyone has opinions on what we should do. I was thinking we would still take them for dinner too and pay for them.. ya but if I offer to pay for drinks (knowing the fam and friends) we would be over the budget! -
Here is some information that someone left on another forum for canadians. I know I am confused myself what all has to happen when it comes to getting married in mexico!
-
HartyT509.. I was totally thinking of doing the same thing.. going for a free wedding, and then going out for dinner with everyone that night instead. We are then probably just going to end up doing a reception at home afterwards anyways for everyone that couldn't come.. so it makes more sense to me then having two first dances, DJ's etc.. but I wondered how the people that were coming would feel about this? I am glad to see that someone else is on the same page as me!
I don't have any total numbers or not yet, because I haven't even confirmed my date..
-
I am a new member from Vancouver, BC Canada. I am hoping to get married at Dreams Cancun in October 2009, but I am awaiting a confirmation that the date is available.
-
I am new to the forum, but I have spent quite some time reading through all of the messages everyone has posted. I am so glad that I have found this forum, it has helped me decide that I want to get married at Dreams Cancun. I have been going back and forth with Gabriela the last few days trying to confirm a wedding date for October 1, 2009. Thanks to everyone who has posted, it really has helped me a lot to read through everyone's comments!
