We've only looked at the menus, since I don't think you have to choose until closer to your wedding date. But I think we're doing one of the buffets, which menu were you thinking of using?

Dreams Riviera Cancun (are you putting Puerto Morelos, Riviera Maya) anything else under it? or just leaving the resort as the location under the date and time?? Thanks!! Well we're ordering our STDs finally and I'm putting Riviera Maya on them and not Puerto Morelos.

Not sure what package you are going with, but I decided to do this instead of adding extra videography. I figured I didn't really need that. I'm also going with the ultimate package, so thanks for letting me know! I'm not sure if I should bother my TA about this again (it took forever to get my answer in the first place) or try and negotiate that with Ana when we get down there for the wedding. What do you think?

Let me know if anyone would like me to e-mail them to you. Happy planning!! Wisconsinbride -I didn't know you could make custom stamps! How/where did you make yours?

They are beautiful, and I think they'll look dressy enough

Hi ladies - I know there has been some discussion on this lately so I thought I would update on my photographer situation. I asked my TA to get in touch with Ana and ask about any fee for having an outside photographer and to get her response in writing. And my TA sent this to me "HI Ashley, Good morning! I spoke with Ana, and she said you can use your own vendor but you must pay for a day pass (which is standard) I asked to email me this in writing and I did just get the email from her. So we are good to go!!! FINALLY!"

I like dress #1.. good luck!

Love Asparagus?

Congratulations!! It's so sweet that your grandfather was there and you look beautiful in your pictures

Hi & Welcome to the forum Tiffany If you read through some of the threads under the Riviera Maya, Cancun section you'll get an idea of some of the resorts in the area. And I would assume you should be able to get pricing for Jan 2011 - ladies correct me if I'm wrong?

Has anyone decided to do centerpieces through the resort and if so do you have pics/pricing? I am wondering if we could rent vases from the resort and what it would cost and then use my own fake flowers? I'm wondering the same thing.. I was thinking about getting fake centerpiece flowers but using real ones from the resort for bouquets. So if anybody knows the situation on renting vases - let us know!

Not trying to be mean but how hard is it to answer emails? If I didn't have so many people already booked, I would consider changing resorts, but then what if other places are just the same?? It makes me so much more mad to see a lot of you just as frustrated. I am still waiting on an email from Friday to be answered, that I have now resent her twice and nothing. have you guys told her the packages you want? flowers you want? decor you want? etc? i cant even get her to open my emails to see those things! No I haven't told her any of that... but I bet Laura would have a better answer about when she will/or did tell them all of those details
