Can anyone post pictures of the Convention center on this thread? I would love to see how it looks now (inside + out)... When I was there (in Dec) it was barely finished (still in cement on the outside)

UPDATED:Pages 48 + 49 on this thread... finally got to see it !

There were some posted a while back, shortly after I came back from my wedding, so I would say mid April. If you browse back to then maybe you can find them. Whoever posted tehm (I can't remember) did a great job of taking lots of pics and explaining the set-up.

Hi DT ladies,

 

I have an idea I've been thinking about for a while that I want to throw out there. I was thinking of starting a new Dreams Tulum thread (if everyone agrees to let this one die and the new one will be the main one) and on the first page of the thread having all the most frequently asked questions. So often on here we have the brides asking the same questions over and over, which is quite reasonable considering our thread is over 80 pages long and it's hard to find the information, and the thread has existed for so long now (over 6 months!) and so many brides have come and gone and we can't expect the new ones to know all this stuff. Also there is a lot of little discussions that would be pretty boring for a new person to have to shift through to find the info (don't get me wrong, I love the little discussions, hellos, "thank yous", "you look beautiful" type comments, etc, but the most important information is getting lost in the midst of all that.

 

So what do you think of the idea of starting a new thread where all the most FAQs are on the first page, as well as links to everone's reviews and pictures (i.e. we wouldn't have to have the seperate thread "list of Dreams Tulum brides") I will take responsibility for continually updating the first page as people ask new questions and answers in the thread. So the new thread would look exactly like this one (i.e. we can continue with all our semi-useless little discussions) but would have a super helpful and informative first page. So hopefully this would cut down on a lot of the repetitive questions.

 

Let me know what you think.

 

I don't want to see this thread die before reaching 100 pages though, and it will take a little while to compile all the info to start the new thread, so it could be done sometime in the next few weeks.

 

Alternatively, if we don't like the idea of starting a new thread (it would be sad to see this one die, especially since it's probably the longest thread on BDW!!!!) I could just do a seperate thread called "Dreams Tulum FAQ" and we could refer new brides there, but they are much less likely to see it, as it will be way in the back of the forum. We'd have to keep re-posting the link in this thread. As much as I hate to see this thread die, I think it would be better to have everything all in one place.

 

Let me know what you think! (oops, said that already, haha)

I like the new idea. You have my vote!

I am very excited for you - getting close to my date as well so I am trying to finalise things as much as I can on this side of the border before we get down there - I sent Landy an e-mail over 2 weeks ago and have received NO responce - All I would like to know is about scheduling a cook out - bbq type of a thing - with a bondfire for our rehersal dinner. I wanted to find out the costs envolved with that. - Any chance you can find out for me and let me know when you get back?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Anna

Your idea is FANTABOULOSE!!!!

I think it would be of major benifit for any bride going forward to have all the FAQ in one page right in front - then we can talk about anything NEW that comes up and not trying to direct new people all the time to the answers...

I don't want to loose track of this transition so please make sure to let us all know whan this happens.

 

You are brilliant!!!

[can't wait!]

I'm in! This thread is a wealth of info but useless if you can't find it! I think it would be awesome to have a link to the wedding guide, pictures of bouquets offered, pictures of the gazebo etc etc.

Let me know if you need help with anything. And thanks for taking the lead on this.
