Thanks! You will love Claudia! And CONGRATS on your new house! My nephew (who is eight) wore linen pants from the Children's Place and a linen shirt from Old Navy but we got those back in January and I don't see them on the websites anymore. But, I was looking at these before I purchased the others and they are still available (they have linen shirts here too!)...

We are going to have our reception on the pool deck... and I really want to hang paper laterns out there. Do you think there is a way/place for me to do that? (those that have gotten married already)

 

I am thinking a simple candle setup on the tables and then laterns (my colors) above...but being outside--not real sure how that could work??

We're going to have the hotel put them in our guests rooms - we're taking all the stuff down seperate and putting it together when we get there. The boxes we ordered came folded flat so I put one together to make sure it would be the right size and left the rest of them flat for transporting.

Hello Ladies,

Not such a fun topic but I need some help. I've been trying to get my deposit to Ana for the last month and a half. I faxed it 6 weeks ago only to hear that she didn't receive it 4wks after the fact. I reluctantly faxed it a second time after having an extremely rare email back and forth with Ana on Thursday. I asked her to please contact me immediately when she received my info. (011.52.998.848.7001 is the fax I used)

It is now Sunday...no reply. How did you all submit your deposits? How long did it take for confirmation? Do I have the correct fax? I called the Dreams Corp and that is what they gave me. Sooooooo frustrated....any help is appreciated! Thx

I sent my deposit in via e-mail (I scanned the c.c. and info) about 2 weeks ago. I got an e-mail from Yazmin a few days later saying the funds would be taken out soon. The money was taken out within a week. I still have not received a contract but Ana said I should be getting that soon. I have noticed I get a lot faster of a response when I talk with Yazmin instead of Ana. Good Luck!

I mailed my deposit via money order using certified mail. She has not acknowledged receipt yet, but I sent it about 6 weeks ago. I will do a trace in a few weeks if she doesn't give me confirmation. It is so frustrating that she will answer one or two questions in an email, but leave so many unanswered

I also scanned my cc info & drivers license. The money was taken out about a week later.

Question about OOT bags:

 

We are flying in along with our parents and getting in to Cancun around 3. Of the guests that have already booked, we are arriving the latest. I figured that with all the travel (most are coming from east coast) they'd be wanting to rest and so we decided to do our cocktail hour the next evening.

 

So if I do OOT bags but I'm getting there after everyone else, how should I get the bags to my guests?
