Dreams Cancun - Questions for those married here!

[muitoquerida]

hey guys thinking about ordering maracas and stuff from http://www.cancunweddingfavors.com and have them deliver to wedding coordinator at dreams.

If your WC has you down for a certain date, you're pretty much good to go regardless of the deposit. Cecilia never received our deposit so didn't take it out of the final bill but we still had our wedding as planned! It turns out that the accounting department at Dreams had received it, but never got around to telling the wedding department.

I am really nervous because I have already started making things for my wedding with the specific date on it. I have shared emails back and forth with her for months and she said I could hold my date with a credit card around December of 2010. I'm just so worried another bride has paid and gotten the date I want. I wish I had a more patient self and wasn't so controlling. We picked the date so far out so that all of our friends and family could afford going. Now I wish we said to hell with it and were getting married this April. Rudebaga when is your wedding? Is it getting close?

If there are specific things you want that are different than what your wedding package has, then clarify any changes you want (ie: a different photographer, and outside florist, etc)...but for things that your package includes like picking your menu or flowers, you have lots of time before they'll start going over all that with you

I mailed a ton of stuff to mexico on monday and today found out that some of the stuff will be sent back to us because they will not accept it there... including the first aid kits and anything made in china.

 

Thanks to the info ....  Good to know before i send some stuff for my wedding!

I hope it will come as nice as I plan. I just don't want it to look too dark when you walk away from the dance floor. I will defiantly be posting pictures...it's starting to feel so real now 4 months away!!

Hey girls,

What are these flags with lights??

[jana297]

Good question. Anyone have pictures of the flags with lights!

[wedding decor]

Here are 2 sample of flags, where we project light on it....they are great to delimitate areas

 

Just remenber lighting is the most important element since it gives the tone to the entire atmosphere!...but also bear in mind that in many cases elements are just point of light and not illuminating....like the candles, tikki torches,ect.

[jana297]

Gorgeous! Love the pink and green ones!

Can any of you tell me that have been married here or maybe know, do children count in your head count for dinner?
