We actually don't have a date or resort set yet It's been really tough for me to make a decision....because there will be something small at each of my top places that I don't really like. It is definitely narrowed down to Riviera Maya or Cancun...and specifically...Aventura Cove Palace, Dreams Cancun, Dreams Riviera Cancun, and and Puerto Aventuras. I think the final determining factor will be the cost for our guests. Our date will be driven off of resort availability. We are targeting either early November or late February '11!!

When and where you getting married? If you make your way to Charlotte let me know....It would fun to meet up with another BDW bride!!

OMG- It took me what seemed like FOREVER to decide. I was deciding between Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and Riviera Maya. What made me choose Riviera Maya was the cost. The flights alone there are MUCH MUCH cheaper. Once I decided on the place- then I battled with the place. I had it finally narrowed down to Dreams Riviera Cancun and Aventura Spa Palace- the thing I did not like about Aventura is that it is located on a lagoon- not actually ON the beach. Also- Dreams is fairly new as it was just opened in Oct 2009. I used Trip Advisor A LOT to see peoples resposes and photos (not just the resort's photos). I am also using a wedding planner/travel agent from destinationweddings.com. You pay $50 and they help TREMENDOUSLY!! They help with all your decisions and then work as your and all your guests travel agents! (and once you book your hotel and etc- you get the $50 back)

I am still not 100% sure on all the prices- but you will find once you book that all the people down there are on their own time. They do not answer emails like we do-- they take a few days and they will drive you crazy!! So the earlier you can jump on it, the better! Let me know if I can help you anymore!
