Your dinner probably will not begin until 7pm.

They will ask you once you meet with the wedding coordinator how many chairs you will need set up. We did have 54 guests come but of those 54 we had 8 in our bridal party so they did not need chairs for the ceremony

They will not send you the 'form' to let them know what flowers, decorations, etc that you want. They will send you a detailed list of all of these. They have you wait this long due to how busy they are with current weddings. Just get an idea of what you want now and then when they send the wedding contract form you will be able to fly through it.Originally Posted by My BIBI
Good day again,
I have a question..... is it true you can't start planning any of the inimate details with the DT resort until 2 months prior to your wedding. This is what they told me in an email. I feel like there is too much to plan to wait that late. Perhaps I am reading it incorrect.
Thanks, Amy

Hi LauraAsh,I do not know who you were asking this to, but I thought I could answer. My hubs and I got married at Dreams Tulum May 16th of this year. We did the Dreams of Love package and had 50+ guests come to celebrate. Part of the package was the resort photographer. We had them for an hour (an hour at the beginning of the reception). It was nice to see some pictures prior to getting our professional photos (Claudia Rodriguez). The resort photographers did a good job but our professional one blew those photos out of the water. I highly recommend spending money on an outside photographer. We had to pay the $750 as we rented out the Seaside Grill. It was a great place for the reception.

Just enjoying married life!! I want to hear how everyone else's AHR has gone if they have had theirs already. Ours is on July 9th and as I said before have gotten good vibes from some that we are doing this and some not so nice things said (ie another day spent "about you"!) In my head I am saying well you do not have to come! JEEZ
Still patiently waiting for our pictures to come back. I get so excited seeing everyone else's photos!!
Any baby news yet from the May ladies?? Too soon to ask ???

Has anyone ran into people making comments about "isn't your wedding over??? Why are you having another reception" I had no bad comments about having a wedding in Mexico but now that people have received our invitation to our bbq AHR they are making snid remarks. Makes me second guess having a AHR
-
You will have so much fun seeing family. We are looking forward as well seeing family and friends who were unable to make it. Our guests who were able to come to Mexico are excited to share stories with those who were unable to come Are you doing a slideshow or how are you going to show your pictures?

It is there wedding gift to us. i really am looking forward to seeing all my family and friends to celebrate, but phew it's a lot of work! Just my luck, my photog sent a sneak peek last night and we should have all our photos by tonight!

To simplify our AHR we have decided to do a bbq/open house style reception at my Mom's home. Much more relaxed and a hell of a lot cheaper! Our professional photographer sent us 10 pics to see to use for our Thank You cards. You could try contacting your photographer and ask for that so then it will be a sneak peek of what is to come

It's been over a month since the wedding and I am just getting so impatient! lol Hope you all are well!

Hey everyone my hubby and I just returned from Dreams Tulum yesterday. We arrived on Wednesday May 11th, married on Monday May 16th and departed on Saturday May 21st. You honestly have NOTHING to worry about. I will post a review once we receive more photos and/or photos from our professional photographer. Anabel was our wedding coordinator once we got there and she was great. We had great weather 90+ degree and sunny each day. If you have questions feel free to message me!

Yes we paid a vendor fee for our DJ. We used DJ Bijan. As for our photographer (Claudia Rodriguez) we did not need to pay a vendor fee but did have to pay for a plated meal (so pay the silver or gold menu price for the photog to eat).

They have small rags/towels in the bathroom. Ours were nicely rolled up in a basket with the hotels shampoo, soap and lotion.
