I posted this over on Ana's site review, but I will do so here too if anyone is interested... For those of you looking for information on the catamaran trip we are booking - contact: Guadalupe León Wedding Agent Amstar DMC México Phone 52 998 881 95 63 Fax 52 998 881 95 85 weddingscun@amstarmexico.com www.amstarmexico.com Guadalupe is excellent... Hans has been emailing him back and forth and he is a riot (but very helpful) - tell them we sent you. The trip we are booking is 10-5, includes snorkeling, stops in Isla Mujeres and for lunch (included), drinks, etc. It is a private trip so you can customize somewhat. I think the max on the boat is 40, but I am not sure about that. If you need more info, let me know... H&V

Hi! How much does something like this cost? Do they pick you up at the resort? Also I know you have been busy..but if you get a chance can you e-mail me the info on secrets? Thanks alot!! adamskristi@hotmail.com

For those who have been married at DC before... what did you do for witnesses? I thought I read the witnesses have to be there 4 days ahead of time. My family isnt going to be there until 2 days ahead of time. So does that mean I have to have their witnesses sign our license? Or is that 4 day rule not true? Thanks so much!

I bought it on ebay. If you do a search for starfish garter it should come up and you can pick the color.

AHH!!! i cannot tell you girls enough just how much i love this website! i realize i'm kind of a lurker these days, i haven't posted much yet.... but that's because i can't come up with any questions yet because you all are answering them for me!! i love it!! thank you everyone for helping us brides out! i realize i am not getting married for another year, but I already can't imagine what a disasterous wedding i would have come up with if i hadn't found this forum with all of these helpful ideas and advice from you all!

 

big thanks and big hugs to you guys!! i am doing a site visit to Dreams Cancun this October so let me know if there is anything i can do for any of you while i am down there, take certain pics, ask certain questions, check anything out in particular, etc. i would love to return the favor.

 

thanks again for being so awesome ladies! what a great support system! i still can't believe this thread alone has over 100 pages regarding this particular resort. i love it!

xo!!

yes the witnessess do need to be there 4 days before the wedding, if they are not going to be you can use someone from the resort....that is what we were going to have to do until we decided to have the legal ceremony prior to going down there and just have the symbolic ceremony at DC.

I am trying to get an outside photographer Oked through Claudia and she is telling me NO OUTSIDE VENDORS.. Has she said this to anyone else? I am holding my ground though. I still haven't heard back from her.

Yes she did tell me that, this is the case for many vendors.
They have certain ones they work with and she could give you a choice if you ask.

I think many of us want to control the details which is hard from afar.
I know I did... but they have the wedding packages and such for a reason. They have a wedding almost everyday at Dreams Cancun.

I look back and think I should have just let them plan it all as the package was... less stress for me and it still would have been just perfect!
