karma: 2 |  Question for Dreams brides
I'm considering having my wedding & reception at Dreams, but I'm worried that having both there (in addition to having guests stay there) might get a bit old...I'm definitely having the welcome/rehearsal dinner offsite.
I'm worried that guests will kind of "know what to expect" as far as the gazebo wedding, reception etc if they're they're staying there the entire time, especially if there are other weddings going on while we're there.
Did any of you decide to stay offsite and then use Dreams just for your ceremony & reception? I just don't want my guests to get tired of being there...KWIM?

Most of our guests hung out in the large pool.. we had our wedding on the beach and the reception by the Oceana Terrace (small pool).. Even though they were at the resort a few days prior to the wedding, both these locations were decorated so beautifully, they were special to the occasion.
Our Welcome dinner was at Portofino and I believe that was the only meal they had at that restaurant.. Didn't really matter because we had a mexican buffet and not the normal menu food.
The Cabo resort is large enough to feel you aren't stagnat in the same spot, but small enough to feel intimate. (Never had a problem finding our friends when we wanted to, but could easily get away to a palapa or separate location of the resort.)

i agree with angela about the size of the resort.
we had 2 private events at the hotel and one group dinner to the office (off resort) because i was worried that my guests would want a change of scenery but it wasn't necessary...actually more of a pain than anything...our group really just wanted to hang out with each other and that could have been in the same spot and it wouln't have taken away from the specialness of the event...but luckily at dreams they have different locations to have your private event and the way they decorate it, the food you get (4 course meal or buffet), open bar and the exclusive service really makes it a fantastic event.
