On April 28th, Claudia (not Daniela) got back to my travel agent (I was having no luck getting responses) with this information:

"Unfortunately we don’t have available May 15th 2009, but I can offer you for May 2009: 5, 6, 7,10,11,12, 14, 18,19,20,21,26,27,28 and 31."

But now DANIELA finally responded (on June 14th to the email I sent in APRIL) with this:

"About your wedding dates, I have available: May 8th but just at 4pm; And I have May 15th but just at 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm or 6:00 pm.
If you are interest in any of those dates and times please let me know."

Sounds like Claudia was only booking one per day, and then Daniela will fill in for 2nd or 3rd weddings each day. You can see that per Claudia's email, May 8th and 15th were not available ... Daniela is offering those dates at specific times.

I've emailed her back asking why they are not doing as advertised on the website lol it'll be interesting to see what response I get, if any!! I've also asked to change it to 4pm lmao What a cow!! but I hate being bloody lied to.

 

I was thinking of changing it anyway but didn't want to mess anyone about but now screw it I want 4pm lol

I'm bloody furious now!! I might just email and say can I move the time of my ceremony that'll fuck them up lol Thanks you're a star - sod the guests do what you want to do chick people will whinge no matter where you go - DO WHAT YOU WANT!!

I don't think they are really trying to squeeze in FOUR more weddings that day, just letting me know what's available? I hope? I didn't think they'd EVER do more than 2 per day. Can I ask what time your wedding is set for? I would want a HUGE gap between weddings if there was another on my day (though it might be funny to take photos together in our wedding dresses, haha)! And what if I chose 3:00, and wanted my reception on the terrace, but *your* reception was still going on there Then I would be forced to do mine on the beach, which simply isn't an option for my older guests. When would I find that out? After it was too late and I was months into planning and had sent out save the dates and everything yikes!

LMAO at "sod the guests do what you want to do chick people will whinge no matter where you go - DO WHAT YOU WANT!!" ... so true!!

One more piece of information:

 

According to my travel agent, in May 2009, children are free at Dreams Cancun!

I originally asked for 1pm and for the tower for reception lol I just emailed her saying I want to change it to 4 as i'm really fair im getting married in black and my aunt is diabetic pmsl FI said what you gonna do when it finishes at 9 said get trolleyed and sleep in my dress pmsl he's already calling me medusa may as well live up to it lmao if he doesn't watch it i'll have highway to hell to walk down the aisle 2 lmao

Yeah they told me that 2 - what they didn't say is that only 2 kids in a room with the parents if its more they need another room and they have to pay lmao sneaky eh!!

keep me updated on this...I hope they are not scheduling more than one wedding per day. I have to pay my deposit this week and if so, I need t find another hotel

[cougs]

right hartyt509, so if your wedding was at 1pm at the gazebo with the reception at the tower terrace, and say mine was at 3pm, then i obviously could not have the tower terrace because your people would presumably still be partying there!

 

marrying in black at 1pm in mexico hot hot hot ... it's probably better that you change to 4pm!

if it's that important to you, i would contact them and specifically state that you wish to be the only wedding on your date, and that if they cannot guarantee that you will have to take your business elsewhere. don't sign anything or pay anything that doesn't outline the promise in writing.

that said, i don't think you're going to find many resorts that will commit to one wedding per day.

I just sent Claudia and e-mail. I will keep you updated
