Hi Anna:

Our second choices were Dreams Cancun and Dreams Tulum. And back in February when we made the decision, part of it was geography - we didn't want to be in the city, and we didn't want to be so far out.

And ultimately, the Paradisus had everything we wanted, bent over backward to accomodate our special requests and the WCs are absolutely the nicest people. They get back to you in a relatively short period of time, and they know how to get things done.

I love it there, and am SO happy with our choice.

Wow- they do lots of extras for the wedding beautifully. I love the shell centerpieces. So great you don't have to worry about packing things down with you so it's just right. Great review. I'm sure it will be so helpful for the girls. Now I want to plan another wedding there because it's so pretty.

Hi Becks,

I have a really tight budget, and I am having hard time even getting a clue as to what is going to cost us for the ceremony, reception and etc. What you are having sounds really really awesome, and we are anticipating about 40 guests. I was wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing what your ceremony and reception cost is? Thank you so much!!

Okay I'm not Becks but I might be able to help anna since I am getting married at the PRC as well. Take a lot at the attached spreadsheets - I priced everything out through Perla and Elisa for the Aqua and Fantasy packages and then for the Custom for about 40 people.

Any questions let me know.
