I have been on my computer non-stop for the past week reading and re-reading these forums. THANK GOD I stumbled upon this website. I have been relatively silent and still very much in the dark on how to effectively use this forum. I have seen (or read) weddings planned and brides return from their honeymoons to their new married lives. I feel like I have a secret life and new friends that don't even know I am here smile03.gif And I have certainly learned all sorts of new abbreviations...lol. My FI thinks I am addicted.

 

I have been back and forth between Dreams and the Paradisus RM. It sounds like Dreams is nearly unbeatable for a wedding. My only hesitation is that I was trying to avoid the hustle and Americanized bustle of Cancun. But, you gals have me pretty much talked into Dreams. Lucky for me April 6, 2008 is available and it looks like this will be my new date. Maybe this has all been a blessing in disguise...very disguised. Now I just hope I can do all the planning and details in 2 months. It sounds almost impossible, but please wish me luck. I have learned an enormous amount and so appreciate you all sharing your stories and photos. I hope to return the favor.

 

Sorry for the long post, but I needed to get this introduction out of the way...

 

Shout out to PDXlove. I am a PDX gal too.

 

Not enough points to open much of the recent pricing and flower info that has been posted- Nor can I send PM

 

Would TiffJT mind sending info to jeannehofbauer at hotmail dot com?

 

Just a couple of questions for past brides and site visitors:

 

Is the beach nice at Dreams? It looks nice, but TA said it is rocky.

 

Happy with the rooms?

 

Is the staff friendly- I know Claudia and Daniella are, but what about the rest of the employees?

 

Recent poster who is having fireworks- that is so great. How are you doing this?

 

Thanks agian to all and I sincerely hope that I can finalize my date and you will all be seeing a lot more of me. :)

Just a few introductions - We are getting married July 14, 2008 at Dreams Cancun. We are looking at about 25 guests. We live in Massachussetts, about an hour west of Boston.

For those of you going to, or thinking of Secrets Capri for your honeymoon, you won't be disappointed. It is beautiful - we got engaged there in Dec 06. If anyone wants pictures, let me know and I will send them along.

 

PaulaV - Congrats on your upcoming big day. Please give us a recap when you get back - We read Jilly's and Susan's, and they were great help.

 

We will be checking back daily... Thanks again to everyone.

Question for Jilly or anyone who knows this: Is there seating in the terrace already or do they set up seating only for weddings? In other words, have you been there when there wasn't a wedding and what seating, if any, was there?
I don't think they have seats on the terrace when nothing is going on, there may have been a few chairs, but I can't remember for sure, nothing much.

Cool, I saw that! Its about time! Dreams Tulum has a better presentation put together for wedding packages, I wish Dreams Cancun had the same thing! Oh and also they mentioned that soon they will be able to offer a webcam for the ceremony. (See below from the FAQ's) This is cool! Wonder how much!!?

For family and friends who cannot attend - Help them be there in spirit.

Can you make an internet webcam available during the ceremony?

Plans are currently underway to have webcams available for our wedding ceremonies. Please contact the wedding coordinator for details.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
