Dreams Ultimate Package or A la carte?


Recommended Posts

I searched and really couldn't find anything on the forum on this...

 

I was wondering for Dreams Los Cabos brides, did you or are you going to do the wedding package offered by Dreams or are you doing a la carte? I have about 30-40 people attending, and I'm trying to figure out if it would be more beneficial to get the package. I've hired Bradley Frasier, I have Maye for my outside coordinater, but I'm thinking, for the Ultimate package, it includes photographer, video of ceremony, food accommodations for 20, etc for $2650. That means I just have to pay for another 20 off my guest. Any idea pass or present brides to be have good input? Thanks so much! confused.gif

Great, I'll do that this weekend. Thanks so much!

We are getting married in September and have the Ultimate Package. We have 23 guests so the package worked well for us. I am paying extra for the photographer because I wanted more than 50 photos. Also after reading the poor reviews about Dream's hair and make-up, I decided to pay for Suzanne Morel. I am hoping to work something out with Dreams and get an extra spa treatment or something instead. I'll let you know how that goes once we get back. Good Luck!

We had a big group, and i wanted to hire my own outside vendors. For 2008, we paid $25 pp per private event. We threw 3 private events (welcome dinner, ceremony w/ cocktail hour, and the reception). This came out to $75 pp.

    • 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!
