Yaulau's dreams cancun wedding - Page 2

Hey Ladies:

Does anyone know if mango calla lilies, orange roses, or orange lilies are available in Cancun? My wedding is in six weeks at Dreams and I really wanted to check one more thing off my to do list before we get there.

I'm not sure. I emailed claudia a few weeks ago about flowers and told her if it was easier to just put me in touch with the florist and I haven't heard back yet.

Thanks everyone, especially Jilly for moving it to a new thread.
My dress was actually from JCrew. I bought it on sale for $150 and had the tailor add in the band for the waist and hem it for me for $70. It was very comfortable and easy to move around in since it doesn't have a train and only has two thin layers under the satin/silk main fabric.

The book I had on the table is made from mypublisher.com with pics of all our guests that we had on our computer. Some of the pics are of us and our guest back 10 yrs ago, so it was really nice to see the old pics. The guests write their messages on it for us. Under the book, I have a glass picture frame for the guests to just sign their name. And the guests wrote little messages, advices, etc (Kiss Often,, Don't sleep angry, Always Share, Be Honest) on the big white seashells for us.

And if anyone has questions, just PM me.

I have also sent multiple pics of bouquet ideas (I just sent another today) and have yet to get any kind of response. I have also e-mailed twice asking for the name of the flower shop they work with...no response. I once e-mailed her and asked her if they work with one specific place whose website I noticed on some of the pics in the files she has sent us. She responded by saying "not anymore", but did not go on to say who they currently work with. I wonder if they (Dreams) does not want us to communicate directly, I 'm sure Dreams gets charged "x" dollars and then charges us "x + y".

I wanted my bouquet to be mango callas, so I had sent Claudia a pic at some point and she responded:

"The calla lilies bouquet picture you sent will be additional cost"

She already told me we cannot bring in outside flower vendors. I had talked to a nice lady that Anny is using and her prices were cheaper and she had some great ideas. Oh well... As long as they get my colours right I will be happy - and if not, I'll get over it :)

We just met with Claudia this last week in Cancun to make arrangements for our wedding in July. She is extremley busy so that is why the slow responses via email. Everyday we were there she was doing weddings and receptions all day. One day we saw her leaving at 11:00 P.M.

About the flowers, they did just switch to a new vendor. We are doing calla lilies as well and they only come in white. If you don't want them in white, the florist will airbrush them any color you want.

Very cool! thanks for the letting us know!
Yeah, I also sent her an e-mail with about 5 or 6 questions on Mon and am yet to hear back! I'm in no rush though! Still have plenty of time and I figured if push comes to shove, I can always get my TA to get the answers for me! She's been awesome about that!

Do you happen to know anything about the roses? I want a deep bright pink, but I haven't heard back if they have this color, so I can't make a decision on my flowers until I know.

Paula, she did the same thing to me, I sent her a bouquet I wanted and she said she'd have to get me a quote on how much it would be. But she didn't say if they would deduct the normal cost of the bouquet that I'm paying for with the package.

Sorry, not sure about the roses. I'm sure if you send her a picture though of what you are looking for they will be able to accomodate you.

Your pics are beautiful. It looks like everything was gorgeous! I love your dress it was so pretty. And your husband is very handsome. (That's the word I use when I don't want to offend a wife by telling them that I think their husband is smoking hot. LOL)
