u look amazing!

Thank you so much! I just wanted to say I didn't have any issues with bugs either and I would highly recommend Himitsu beach for your reception; it is smaller and more intimate and it is sheltered from the wind unlike the other beach. At Himitsu your reception will be quite close to the restaurant and just a few steps from the walking path so your grandma won't have to walk far at all. The beach is also close to the pyramid so if your guests are staying in that part of the hotel,they won't have far to go.

 

 

 

Awesome thank you! I just reserved himitsu beach

Are table decorations at Dreams really priced outrageously? I assume so since so many brides are bringing their own all the way to Mexico. The thought of transporting that stuff along with all the other wedding paraphernalia makes me cringe (do I sound like a total wimp?). Do the wedding coordinators send you the options beforehand or do you have to wait for your meeting AT Dreams a couple of days before the wedding to see what is offered and prices? 

 

Can you tell that my wedding is getting close and I'm starting to stress out a bit?

 

Also, the WC has only sent me my contract so far for my May wedding. In addition to the table decoration options, do the WCs  send you ANY of the option details in advance (flowers, music options) or do you have to wait til you get there to see your options and pricing?

 

I just want to know what to expect.  I was really hoping to work through some of the details to see what will fit into my budget BEFORE we get there in case I have to compensate with some DIY.

 

Any insight is greatly appreciated.

Hi Michelle, I'm in the same boat as you, my wedding date is 30th April and Im not sure what to expect really with decorations and flowers etc. I live in London so want to bring as little as possible. I don't really have any info yet but all brides say everything works out perfectly and not to stress so I'm trying not to xxxx

Ok guys. I have some tips. My wedding is there on April 6, 2012. There is a past Dreams bride that brought some tall cylinder glass vases there and I asked Claudia about them and she is not charging to use them. All I am bringing in my suitcase is fake green orchids and a flaoting candle for each centerpiece. I am also bringing 25 starfish with me. I will leave the 25 starfish with Claudia for any of you brides to use while you are there. I will also leave the green orchids behind as well. Here is what my centerpieces will look like but with GREEN orchids.

 

PS this is a really tall vase in the picture. The actual vase is half the size lengthwise.

Jana- My wedding is on April 20th so hopefully I can use your starfish! I'd like to put them around the tables as another way to decorate the tables. What are you doing with them?

[jana297]

I am tying the place setting names to them with a ribbon. Depending what your colors are I could leave the ribbon behind too. The ribbon is thin and an orange color.

That would have been perfect! I just ordered sand dollars to use as the pace card settings.

My colors are Turquoise and coral.

I got married at dreams last year- please check out my add for all of my used table linens and chair sashes, bride groom passport covers, starfish, lanyards, welcome postcards and room key holder cards. I just looking to get rid of all of it to the same person to avoid shipping everything separately and I know that only someone getting married in Mexico will want this stuff bc the postcards say Mexico! Fuchsia, lime green, and bright orange linens. Look at the add for pics! Happy to answer any questions anyone has about dreams also! Anything I can do to help any future dreams brides!

Hi Briannarae23,

 

I wanted to ask about the rooms at Dreams. I am in the process of choosing between Now Jade and Dreams Cancun, but I am nervous my guest will notl ikethe dated rooms. How was your experience?
