omg ... that would be awful since neither of us have any *actual* credit cards. we do EVERYTHING with our bank debit card VISAs. i told my FI to make sure they know we are traveling to mexico so they don't flag the account for "suspicious" activity, and try to get any daily limit lifted since we want to pay for the wedding with it. never even thought that we may not be able to use it at all! yikes!

Darn, I wish I would have put that on my Brochures.....and by the way..I know this isn't a rant thread but I need to hijack a minute....after I spent about $28.00 on 25 brochures from Vista Print over the weekend....TODAY I get my freebie e-mail for 25 FREE brochures!! I was not a happy camper. But the good news is, I can make new ones if I hate these and it will be like I only paid once..LOL

 

ok..Hijack over....I will make note of that & let my guests know by e-mail or word of mouth! :-)

 

Thanks

Wierd....I feel like I get those emails every day, in fact I'm almost sure I do!

[**~Jenn~**]

I was gettng them every single day for a while, and then they stopped, so I couldn't wait any longer and placed this big order. I still saved TONS of money..however I spent like $69 (They did give me Priority shipping free however)

and then 2 days later, I get an e-mail with TONS of freebies! So I had to take advantage...I stol Lisa's little "Rain or Swine" (Thanks Lisa :-)thing and I had large calendar magnents made....It says "Counting down the days until we're in Cancun"

and underneath it it says, "We'll be there come rain or SWINE!"

And of course I have our name, Date & Dreams Cancun on everything. I even put a little asterick on the date of our wedding. I'll be sending those little freebies out with our brouchures & Luggage tags.

 

Dreams Cancun Brides....How is the bug situtation down there? I have a major bug phobia and I am wondering if I should just bring some Off wipes...or ya..a can of Raid..LOL

In Punta Cana it was little lizards & frogs,..ALL OVER...So I am wonderng if it's the same in Cancun, specifically at Dreams ?

 

Also...For those of you that used the sound system for your reception on the Lobby Terrace...Should I bring extra lighting for the area where the sound system is? I don't want to be dancing the dark ...Maybe some lanterns or something?

How is the lighting in that area?

 

Thanks :-)

I have no idea how they do more then one wedding a day. I will be super pissed if they do that on my day. My wedding is from 5-11 pm. There's no way they can do something that day can they?

Unfortunately yes. If someone wants to get married before or after you, they definitely can as long as they pick a different location for the reception. It is a bit of a factory, but the previous brides didn't seem to be bothered by it and still had wonderful weddings so I am going with it.

I emailed a company in Cancun called Aqua World for some information on their offerings. They rent wave runners, do jungle tours, snorkeling, day trips to Cozumel, etc. I have attached the activity descriptions/price lists for anyone who is interested.

Me too!! how funny well it looks like i am getting married the day before you so we can maybe scare away the other brides who are looking at our dates! J/K but that is a funny thought
