  1. Hey there! I am getting married there June 17,2011....looks like we are wedding buddies!!! I'm so excited.
  2. Thank you Laura for the reassurance. It's nice to hear from the brides who have been there and had a beautiful wedding. I'm really confident in the resort and Ana but sometimes it's hard not to stress.

I got no response for about a week. Then she said "ok all is good, will process your deposit on your charge card today!" well that was a week ago and it still isnt showing up on my card statement =( I just hope this all works out for us in the end ladies!! I'm kind of stressing =( I've been having the same problem BethAnne! I ended up paying $40 to UPS the charge authorization and copies of the credit card and ID because their fax maching was offline for over a week. The package was recieved there, now I keep checking my cc to see if there is a charge from them and nothing yet! As easy as a destination wedding is supposed to be....this has been an extremely frustrating process. I started trying to lock in my date and get my deposit in the first week of April. It's now over 3 months later. I hope it will get be smooth sailing after this deposit gets taken care of. Good Luck BethAnne...I'm right there with you!

Shows that sometimes you try to be considerate to other brides and not take Ana's time but then you could loose out. Wonder what location etc I would be left with if I didnt read this forum and know to request it beforehand! Thanks for mentioning in this though. I hadn't even thought of needing to request ahead of time. I emailed her today to request the pool deck. Just to be sure though...the pool deck is in front of the infinity pool right?

I'm curious from other brides (or brides to be) whether their experiences with the WCs were positive and if they were reliable with communication. I know the wedding is a whiles away, but I'd like to get the location confirmed. Thanks! Jen Hi Jen! It literally took Ana over 2 months to confirm my wedding date of June 17, 2011. I emailed her April 2nd and I only got an email to confirm about 2 weeks ago. I sent muliple followup emails, about one every 2-3 weeks. It was extremely frustrating. I was even working with a travel agent to try and help. I was going to give her one more week and then I was just going to call but luckily she finally responded. I know thier preferred method of communication is email but I waited over 2 months and thought a call wouldn't be unreasonable at that point. Now my frustration is waiting for her to take my deposit from my credit card. I realize she is extremely busy but it gets a little rediculous with the no communication. The weddings they book and the guests we bring them for the wedding is a huge part of thier business. I think they need to come up with a better system. All I want is my date and my deposit taken care of and I won't "bother" her for a whole year What is keeping me with DRC is all the wonderful things I've heard and from reading other brides reviews reassuring us that once we get there everything will be worth it and that our weddings will be beautiful. So thank you to all the previous bride because if it wasn't for you I would've dropped DRC due to lack of communication. Keep trying Jen! It will be worth it. Dreams is beautiful and I've read almost only great things, I'd say about 90% of the time people are overly impressed and 10% of the time people nit pick at stuff with negative comments but still have good things to say. I think DRC will be worth it in the end!

Would you mind sharing what made you choose Riviera Cancum? I did TONS of research online before choosing Dreams Riviera Cancun. I number one wanted a higher rated resort. I wanted great food with premium liquor. I needed it to be a family friendly resort because some kids are coming to the wedding. I also did not want to be in downtown "party" area of Cancun... but I didn't want to be an hour away from the airport more toward Riveria Maya. SOOOOO.... After lots and lots of looking I found Dreams Riviera Cancun! DRC has everything I'm looking for. I've heard almost nothing bad about the food or restaurants (another big plus for me was all the ala cart restaurant choices vs. a big buffet with one or two ala cart). I've heard soooo many good things about their food. Another thing was the alcohol... a lot of all inclusives don't have or keep in plentiful stock of premium liquor, which DRC does. Also, DRC has mult beer choices which other all inclusives with have only one or two brands. The rooms look incredible and I read so many great reviews about the rooms. I loved the style and decor of everything...the lobby, the pool areas, the restaurants and the rooms. Plus it's only 20 mins or so from Cancun Airport and it's not in the "Party Zone" but close enough that if any guests really wanted to go they could. The wedding packages was also another big thing. I looked into Iberostar and Azul pretty closely too but their wedding packages were no where near what Dreams offers for the price. Dreams comes with everything if you get the Love or Ultimate.... hair, makeup, photos, video, flowers, cake, mexican trio, a cocktail hour with horderves (sp?) plus a dinner reception (food included) for 20 guests and then anything additional you'd pay for per person. None of the other resorts had a cocktail hour let alone a full meal...most other resorts had cake and champagne toast. Dreams you definately get the most for your money! Plus the resort is absolutely beautiful and brand new! I'm sooo excited and I know I chose a great resort. DRC was the perfect pick for my FI and I and the vision we had for our wedding. I hope this helps and good luck hunting for your resort that holds your vision!
  8. Just a quick question to those already married at DRC or those who have already put down your deposit....How long did it take for them to charge your credit card? and.... Did you do give her the info over email or did you actually have to mail her a copy of the authorization? I emailed the credit card authorization with our info and credit card info but she hasn't charge my card yet. She did confirm with me my date but I will feel much better once the deposit is down.
  9. I just joined this forum but I too am having my wedding at Dreams Riviera Cancun on 6/17/11! How many weddings do they have a day? My understanding was that there were only 2, so it must just be us that day
  10. Hi my name is Adriana. I'm from Wisconsin. I just booked my June 17, 2011 wedding at Dreams Riveria Maya! I'm so excited and this forum looks like it has a ton of information! I'm excited to start reading it all.
