I am really glad to hear this. It must have been just one of those rare occurances that just happened to happen when we were there. To me, it wasn't a big deal. Like I said, the kids were behaving. My fiance almost decided to look for another resort over it (a bit of an over reaction!). Either way, I'm glad we are still going Dreams!!!

Do girls think it would be better to bring down my own make up for them to use or just use their stuff. I'm scared of getting a bad reaction on my wedding day

they do great makeup---get Trinidad. before we left i went to sephora and bought my own foundation, bronzer and lipstick so I could touch up. Everything else I think you could use their makeup.

I did a search through the thread but couldn't really find too much on this. I'll be getting married Nov 15 of this year and we're about to book our rooms and I was wondering which room other brides recommend and also, do you think we should just go with the cheapest room and try to upgrade once we get there?

I really want a room with a jacuzzi but also hoping we might not have to pay for that (?). Besides the bride and groom, what room do you recommend I suggest to our guests booking?

Here are our options in order of cheapest to most expensive:

Deluxe Garden View

Junior Suite Garden View

Preferred Junior Suite Garden View

Deluxe Ocean View

Junior Suite Ocean View

Preferred Junior Suite Ocean View

Preferred Club Junior Suite Ocean Front

Hacienda Preferred Club Suite

Deluxe Garden View Connecting

Preferred Club Honeymoon Suite

Hacienda Club Presidential Suite

 

Just don't want to waste my money if you girls don't think it was worth it. Thanks so much!

Ours is June 26th

All of my guests stayed in the "deluxe" garden view (note, the word deluxe should not be there) and they were all fine with their rooms, they preferred to save their money rather than pay extra for the more expensive room.

 

You may get a free upgrade, but you can't count on it, although most brides have gotten it.

 

check out the reviews, lots of people talk about what they and their guests thought of the rooms in their reviews, I know when I got married almost 2 years ago it was like the #1 topic of discussion on the DT thread

Wow! great info.....

Does any one have any good tips and/or info on using DT groups/meeting with thier DW party. Meaning.... Having the resort block off a bunch of rooms (pre-arranged) with the groupes coordinator (because the wedding coordinator won't do it). anyone have any previous dealing along these lines.

I am looking for ideas and/or help with what to tell guest.. book threw the resort or go threw orbitz or one of the other travel sites. I would like to save them as much as possiable. I am having guilt trip

Thanks

Hi,

When we got to the hotel, we just asked that all our rooms be near each other. It wasn't a problem, besides the hotel is small enough that it's not that much of a distance between rooms.

 

As to upgrade, we got it when we got to the resort. We asked and one my girlfriends piped up that we brought 19 people with us so they were good about it.

 

P.S. Don't feel guilty, your guests will have a wonderful time.
