Dreams CABO or Dreams CANCUN?


Recommended Posts

Hey Ladies,

 

Just so you know, you don't need to post your thread more than once, if it doesn't pertain to just one area, try to post it in a more general area, rather than cabo or cancun specific.

 

Cabo & Cancun are very different, they're both beautiful and they both have beautiful resorts.

 

Two things that made me choose cancun over cabo were

 

1. Location ( I am on the east coast as are all of my guests, we wanted to keep costs down and flights to cabo would have been more money)

 

2. swimmable beaches (there are some swimmable beaches in cabo, but I wanted to make sure my guests could go to the beach if they wanted to at the resort we were staying at)

 

Also, dreams doesn't allow spring breakers, so you wouldn't have to worry about that, they are family friendly resorts.

 

if you do a search on this site you may actually fine some threads on this very topic because I know it's been discussed many times.

 

Also, I noticed two of you ladies mentioned wanting to get married in May 2009, I have several brides I'm working with that are getting married in May next year and there were not very many dates left, so I wouldn't get your heart too set on any certain date just yet and I would also make a decision fairly quickly if May is defnitely the month you want as the dates are going quick.

 

Good Luck!

good points...thank you. yes i need to hop on a date quick...i havent heard back from the WC -its been about a week - ill try again. to be honest, i guess i wouldnt mind a midweek wedding as long as the weather is great- i could compromise. I wonder if April or june would be a better second choice?

april - may - june is typically a very busy time for weddings there, but as long as you don't mind a midweek wedding you shouldn't have a problem getting a date. I was checking dates for someone else a few weeks ago and there were no fridays or saturdays available in the time frame she was looking, so she went with a thursday.

 

The WC are slow to get back to you because they are very busy and they get 100's of emails everyday, so don't get discouraged, but you may need to send another message if you don't hear back.

gen, i see you are based in LA....are most of your guests based there as well? if so, i say cabo because the flights will be less expesnive and only a 2-2.5 hour flight....which will make it easier for your guests to afford the trip and come...

 

i say the same thing to my east cost brides that if they are stuck between cabo and cancun, they should do cancun.

Its really half and half...Myself and bridesmaids are coming from LA...but most of our family is coming from NJ and Canada. I guess that would make it a little easier for them to make Cancun. My goal is to get Claudia WC on the phone asap and arrange a mini site visit in late July. If we love it and can make arrangements there and then... Ill take whatever date they have!

    • 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!
