Im totally new to this forum thing so bare with me lol!!!
You ladies are not alone!!
Im getting married June 2015 and they have yet to take my wedding package deposit. Daniel told me not to worry because my date is locked in and that it's because they do not have a credit card machine available there yet. I would also love to go over details but it seems impossible because there are no pictures to reference with them. So @@Laks86 if you could also share with me what ever you get i would be grateful.
My additional annoyance now lies with the group rate package. @@bkprettygirl did you make a contract for the rooms or just booked directly? I had to wire them my deposit to finalize a contract and still waiting to get the group code to provide to my guests.
Lastly to answer your questions @@Laks86....my friend's wedding was at Dreams Los Cabos. I loved the resort so much i visited them again a couple of years later but at Puerto Aventura, MX. Even back in 2011 she faced the same dilemmas we are now. The one thing she said is a "must" is to hire a planner. She claims that was the best $500 she spent. She did a custom package and the planner found us someone to do our hair and makeup, photographer, charter service to transport from church back to hotel,DJ, mariachis, hell you name it the planner found it. Reason I started to look at forums and blogs was to find myself a planner. My friend said that the planner even began dealing directly with the Dreams planner and was much more efficient at getting answers and what not for her. I suppose the hotel is handling multiple weddings and whomever is our designated coordinator will be just as busy pleasing multiple brides. So just a thought if you ladies haven't already considered it.
