Dreams Riviera Cancun - Brides post here (new thread)

[cmi1205]

Hi Ladies! We just got back from our wedding on Sunday and although it RAINED ALL day, (the only day it did for that matter) it stopped long enough for our beach ceremony and our reception was moved to the ballroom...it was still AMAZING!!! Lorena let us know last minute, day before wedding that she had a family emergency and had to leave town so therefore would have to leave Gina in charge and I have to say, despite some minor details that were omitted or forgotten in the stress over weather, Gina and Jorge made everything way better than we could have expected! I guess they felt bad, they threw in a few lighting and decor perks and "Mr. Awesome Mauricio" threw in the dance floor as a wedding gift and after seeing nearly all of our 50guests + bartenders and even coordinator Jorge dancing on the sidelines we knew it would be memorable! Mauricio exceeded our expectations with music and even videotaped moments when all of our guests were dancing all over the ballroom! What can I say about Anel, my goodness the girl is good! We only had the 50 photos included in our package plus we did the TTD session with her since a family friend/guest covered most of our other photography. We got 2 photo books and they are beautiful!

I will give a full review soon and post our slideshows just had to let you all know, the resort was awesome, food was magnificent and service was exceptional! Needless to say, all of our guests paid about $1300 per person for only 4 days and they said it was well worth every penny!

So when should I expect my highlite video from Mike Cantarell ????? I cant wait

 

 

thanx for the helpful info about the photographs and how they come on a CD. I dont know why I didnt realize this. I sort of still dont understand it because if Adventure photos isnt actually printing the pics why dont they just burn all of the pictures they took onto a CD for us? Why even make us choose which photos when they are just going onto a CD? They already put them on the computer for us to choose from, so it actually would cost them NOTHING to put them all on a CD. lol i dont know this is just a silly thing to me... then from there we could choose what to get printed and so forth.

Glad everything worked out!  You mentioned that Lorena went out of town, does anyone know if she is back or if anyone is checking her emails?   I have sent numerous emails lately with no response (not uncommon I know, but we leave in 2 weeks!) 

 

Does anyone have the email address for the videographer that is included with the Ultimate package?  Lorena had sent me another wedding planning form to fill out listing them as [email protected] http://www.videowedd.com/  but when I emailed them to confirm that we wanted to upgrade to HD quality and did not want additional music added over our speaking in the video I was told that their contract with Dreams ended in February???  Does anyone have a different contact?

Hi Tiffany...

Lorena is back ... I received an email from her 3 days ago and she did advise that she had a family emergency that is why she took long to reply !
