We ordered a light beige linen suit for $99 and it will work great! My FI wears suits for work so we ordered an additional work suit that also fits great. The price for the linen suit is awesome because he will likely never wear it again. I only wish we had ordered the linen dress shirt to go with it. Might have to do that tonight with the hopes that it will be here in time.

I am very excited for the whole thing and to spend some great time with our friends and family, but I am not good at all these decisions. I guess that is why I chose destination to begin with. :-)

I've been inquiring about doing dinner reservations as well, and from what I can tell on their wedding guide, they charge a setup fee of about $20 per person to "setup" your wedding table of guests in one of the restaurants. The buffet or theme night would be free. I think this is a little ridiculous if they actually charge to have you setup a table for 10 in one of the restaurants, seeing as we can just go to the restaurant ourselves and ask for a table for 12 people, at no extra cost, and we can do that at any restaurant. Even if the restaurant doesn't usually put tables together, you can request a few tables in the same area, so you are all close enough to visit together. Have you filled out your wedding form yet that the resort sent? I am in the process of filling in my form now. I still haven't decided exactly what we are going to do, but right now I am leaning toward having a cocktail hour right after the wedding followed by dinner at the Seaside Grill. It's hard to make the decision without ever having been there. I still go back and forth about having an actual private reception, but I guess I can always change my plans once I get there. I do agree though that the extra fee seems a little silly for a small group. I will have less than 20 total. I can see if we had a much larger group, but for such a small group it doesn't make much sense. Honestly, I am still considering doing a cocktail hour followed by the buffet just for simplicity. I also didn't know until recently that the Portofino wine cellar would be an extra $200 charge or else I would have probably gone that route. Have you made your final choices?

I am getting so excited! My wedding is June 21st at 6pm. It looks like there will be close to 20 of us. More would be fun, but I'm kind of looking forward to having a smaller group. Has anybody else been married or getting married soon at DT with fewer than 25 people? I am interested in hearing about your reception and also what your experience was for getting dinner reservations for the group. My understanding is that less than 25 people can get reservations together at any of the restaurants? I am hoping to have a group dinner the first night everyone arrives, but that will be Sat. night so if it happens to be a fiesta night we would probably just meet on the patio.

I am very interested in the chair sashes and table runners. Can you send me a message with total cost?

How many do you have left? I would be interested in 20-25. Thanks!

Hi ladies! I will be getting married at DT on June 21st, 2010. Looks like we will all be there the same time. Are any of you planning on doing anything special for the reception, or just sticking with the basics. I am in the process of figuring all that out now. Congrats!!!

Violetvixen, Congratulations! I saw on another thread that your date is June 19th. I will be there for my wedding on the 21st. It is likely we'll cross paths. I hope your planning is going well. Are you sticking to the basics or are you coming up with your own ideas?

Hello Everyone! This site has been such a great find as I am planning my wedding at Dreams Tulum in Mexico for June 21, 2010. Congratulations to all of you and thank you to everyone who has posted such valuable information.
