She's been great, and the pricing there is so reasonable. My FI reallys wants to go to the Melia because of the free golf but I am secretly (er, ok, maybe not so secretly!) hoping that the travel pricing will be better for Dreams Palm Beach so we can go there instead

That's awesome Princess! I hope you get what you want. I thought it was great Melani got back to me right away too! That says alot to me! I am trying to figure out the pricing now. We are inviting about 175 people but realisticaly thinking that about 40-60 will come. It is hard to compare the resort packages from hotel to hotel. Did she send you any information about photographers or anything?

I loved Dreams in Cabo so I'm sure all Dreams resorts are beautiful.

She sent me the 2009 pricing for "extras" which includes photography. I have no idea who they use though. I'm either going with Photosouvenir or bringing a photographer with me I think.

I am in the same boat of expecting about 40-60 people. What I've noticed is that many resorts almost seem to penalize you for having so many people at your wedding which I think is ridiculous. I know you have to pay extra for your private event, but you'd think you should be rewarded some how for bringing them so much business. In any case, that's one thing I don't like about the Melia, which is the other resort I am considering, is that while it is so beautiful and perfect for us in many respects, it seems like for a group our size the wedding will be quite pricey, especially compared to Dreams.

The photosouvenir website looks awesome and their prices are good too....so I will probably be using them too.

Love all the info and can't wait to hear more about the resort from everyone traveling there.

 

I was planning on going to the Dreams Punta Cana. But then my local travel agent that I am working with just had a bride Return from Dreams Punta Cana and she was not very happy. The Bride said the maintance was not done in the rooms at all at Dreams Punta Cana.

 

But the Travel Agent said she had heard great things about Dreams Palm Beach and recomended it in place of Dreams Punta Cana. So I am very excited to here reviews, it has been tough deciding which Dreams to go to, but sounds like Dreams Palm Beach is a great place! : )

Here is some additional information that Melani sent me in regards to dinner options, packages and pictures. Hope this helps!

DO NOT USE DREAMS PUNTA CANA. My husband and I married at Dreams Palm Beach on may 9 and honeymooned at the Dreams punta cana. THank GOD. DPC is a dump. dirty, obnoxious, horrible beach. DPB is romantic, beautiful, renovated. I can send you pics- email me [email protected]

Thanks for starting this thread. I'm just in the planning stages and our TA recommended Dreams Palm Beach but I'm having a hard time finding info on it.

 

*Kandy can you post some of your pictures?

[MilitaryMrs.s-to be]
