Amanda, how much would you say you have spent in total for your wedding package that you created? What wedding package did you book?

I have the Ultimate wedding package booked for October 4th 2012.

   Can anyone recommend a photography?  We are having a small wedding.. 5 guest for sure and 10 at the most so we dont need a photographer all day but I do want some photos at ceremony and on the beach. 

   I booked an appointment with Suzanne Morel for my hair and makeup.  Since I'm the only getting services done I need to go to her salon.  Does anyone know how far it is from the resort?  I'll have a car but i want to make sure its not too far.

    Can anyone recommend a florist?  I've about Lola at Florenta.  Anyone else that has reasonable prices?  Thanks!

 

 

Sorry for the delay but yes that is correct, you only pay the 95 total, which includes the 62 for the wedding.  I am using emweddings.com for photography.  Suzanne Morale is down in Cabo San Lucas, so 15-20 minutes.  I work with Alina and the new florist place.  Dreams only allows you to use one of the two vendors, the second was recently added and has reasonable prices...they also respond quickly.

Hi ladies,

 I am currently finalizing my menu for November wedding at Dreams. On the call, it was asked and confirmed that we could offer 2 to 3 main meal choices from the Gold menu, as long as we put it on the name cards and told the resort in advance. Apparently now my planner Jessica is saying they only allow 2 choices. II said that on the webinar we were told we could have three but she said it is policy. I also know other brides getting married around the same time at Los Cabos are allowed to have their guests choose from 3. Could you provide any advice or does anyone have it in print from the resort that they can pick from 3 mains? That would be helpful.

thanks!

Hey Ladies,

 

I have a quick questions regarding outside vendors at Dreams.  I have chosen Enrique Morales for photography, Arturo Sotomayor, Spanish guitar for the ceremony and cocktail hour, Emporio for flowers and DJ Ricardo for the reception.  Is Dreams going to charge the $95 day pass for these outside vendors to come to the wedding?  Thanks everyone!

[McLecker]

If they are preferred vendors (emporia and dj ricado are apparently) then you should not have to pay the fee! I confirmed we won't be paying the $95 for DJ Ricardo so you shouldn't either. Let me know what you find out.

I did not have to pay the day pass for my Vendors. I did however do a vendor table with Vendor meals from Dreams and they have a different plate of food for them, I think it was like $26 or $32, right around there.  This is optional, but since they are there so long, esp the photogs. I think it is the right thing to do.

I did not have to pay for any vendor passes. I did share with Magda everyone that was coming off resort (guests & vendors) before I arrived so there was no confusion. I will say, make sure your vendors, especially photographer and makeup & hair what room you'll be in for the wedding day. They sent my hair and make up artist to the wrong room. Luckily she had the email I sent her and came to the correct room.

I have another question for you Dreams Brides - what did you do about kids meals? I have a 2 year old, 4 year old, 5 year old, and an 11 year old. We are doing the gold plated meal but I keep getting conflicting info about what the options are for kids. Anyone able to tell me how they fed children and the price of their meals?

[Erika J]

We did kids meals, I think it was chicken strips and fries. I dont remember the exact cost at the moment. I think it was like around $15?

Hey!

 

We fed my daughter (3 1/2) & my niece (6) pasta with red sauce at the Rehearsal Dinner at Portofino and chicken strips and fries at the wedding reception. Heard the girls loved both meals.

 

Here is some of the options Magda provided me: hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken nuggets, pasta in with or red sauce

 

Costs: Rehearsal dinner child cost: $10       Wedding child cost: $32.50
