DREAMS PUERTO VALLARTA "thread"


Recommended Posts

Thanks Jessica!  That definitely makes me feel better about the music and reception area. 

 

I think the only thing I'm still undecided on at this point is the photographer.  If any couples used the Dreams photog and could tell me about their experience that would be helpful.  I think I'm leaning toward hiring an outside photog, just because they seem to be much more artistic than the Dreams photog, and I definitely want to do a day after shoot.

We are trying to pick our cocktail hour canape, appetizer, dinner and dessert menu now. Does anyone have any recommendations or suggestions for what to pick? I have read through the forum and it sounds like the poblano cream soup is one that everyone likes but I haven't read much about any other menu items. If you all have heard of a canape, appetizer, dinner or cake flavor that is really good please let me know!

"Effective immediately the spa will be closed for renovations." 

 

She mentioned that the spa will be providing limited services in the presidential suite. 

 

 

 

I just got the following response from Rebeca ....which makes me feel a little bit better:

"The spa building is being closed for renovations, but they are still offering the services at one of our presidential suites, so you do not have to worry about that, actually if it makes you feel better, we just had 4 weddings last weekend and all brides and bridesmaids were able to get their hair, manicure, pedicure, massages, etc."

We are getting married in a couple of weeks so I will let you know how everything turns out, but below is our menu which might give you some ideas:

 

Appetizers for cocktail hour: ( We picked our 6 all from the  Mexican themed appetizers)

Tostadas of beef, Panela cheese in chipotle sauce, Acapulco shrimp ceviche on on tartlets, mini tamales, mini tacos dorados, and sopes with Mexican Sausage

Main Course: (Surf & Turf) Fillet Mignon on a red wine sauce & garlic butter lobster tail served with risotto and vegetables.  Not sure what the first course will be yet. 

Cake:  Thinking about the 3 milk cake and Ice cream is FI's favorite foods- so we will also have a ice cream bar as well.

Wow, I didn't even have "surf & turf" as an option but it sounds delicious.  My options for the "silver" menu kinda suck.  Are you getting the "ultimate" wedding package?

    • 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!
