If I remember correctly, Marilu did say you could bring outside vendors.

so they usually range about $202-240 per night for double occupancy

Do you know if the prices would skyrocket in December or January, possibly over New Year's? I'm assuming they would, just trying to weigh some options.

if you get your TA to get a room block for you you should be ok as well.

I think the cheapest rate we got was $106/person/night with the $50 spa credit. Our room block rate was $129/person/night - but we ended up not getting a room block.
One of our guests sent out this picture - it's not a bad way to get an idea of the layout of the resort!  | |

It's pretty much down to either Summer or then because it's important to us to have the kids in our family be able to attend. I still haven't felt the parents out on that yet tho. If it weren't for the kids we'd pretty much be open to any time of the year which would just add one more freaking choice so at this point I'm fine with kids because it helps to narrow something down! LOL
The main reason we've started to consider Xmas vacation is due to Summer weather concerns in PV and Cancun.
I think we've at least narrowed it down to 3 areas: PV, Cancun, Cabo
We're pretty much looking into Dreams in all 3 areas, plus Playa Fiesta in PV. Playa Fiesta would be our #1 choice for our "Dream Wedding" but unfortunately I just don't think we'll come near to the 18 room block (36+ ppl) necessary for the wedding package  Bummed on this but I think Dreams PV is our second choice and it looks very nice :) Quote:

We were all set to get one, even had a contract written up - but then Dreams had a couple promotions - one for $112/night/person and then one for $106/night/person and we encouraged all of our guests to book for those cheaper rates. Since our room block rate was $129/night/person it was a much better deal! And most people booked pretty early, so we didn't need the room block afterall.
