Dreams Riviera Cancun - Brides post here (new thread)

Its at 2 pm, I was hoping for 3 pm (same sunset as you obviously) but there was already another ceremony booked for 4 pm, so we got 2 pm or earlier. That being said I know there are a # of references to 'Mexico time' so keeping my fingers crossed that things get 30 min. delay ha ha, so evil!

Sorry girlie not sure, it all depends on how many pictures you are trying to sneak in there etc. but I do know that our photographer Elizabeth Medina has done a number of 'first look' photo shoots for couples who wanted to enjoy cocktail hour with their guests after etc. So maybe ask your photographer to shoot the two of you meeting at say 3 pm, and then have the ceremony at 4? Just a thought.

3 months tomorrow- and I am all of a sudden starting to freak out-- I feel like I have so many things to do!!

Do you girls know if our reception HAS to be 3 hours? What if we want to add an hour? Anyone doing that?

Anyone getting married in Oct- what time is your ceremony/reception?

Thanks Robyn

Just wanted to let everyone know...I emailed Ana yesterday and received a response today so if you have any questions, now may be the time to ask. Also here are some slide shows she sent:

Jason & Amy
Courtney & Dave
Bill & Erica
Christopher & Heidi

TAMMY & JON
Jarrett & Khara
Dolly & Jason
Our Dreams Wedding
Patrick & Dawn

I would double check that cerfew is 11pm and not 10 pm, I recall her saying 10 pm onward is quite hour, but I could be mistaken. If you ladies find out that it is 11 pm please let me know, so far we have the DJ for 4 hours, but I would prefer to extend it by 1 hour then till 11 pm - that would be really cool actually!

boo - mine is down on the contract as 8 -11 with music so im sure you can go until 11

Hey girl! Our wedding is Oct 26th. What time is your ceremony starting? Also, what are your wedding colors?

I think you're right Boo. I think it is 10 pm. But that really stinks...my reception begins at 8...so how can i only have the DJ for 2 hours. I am getting all confused and my wedding is in two weeks!

I was wondering if anyone has info on the wedding cakes? I e-mail Ana about it and she just sent me slideshows of other brides weddings and told me to look in those pictures for what they have to offer. I just wondering how detailed their cakes were?? and are we allowed to bring in a picture of a cake we like and how closely they can replicate it? Thanks

I think it's 11 also. When I first got my contract it said that the ceremony was 6, cocktail hour 7-8, dinner and reception 8-11.
We ended up moving our cocktail hour to the day before and then starting dinner at 7 so our reception goes until 10.

I just cant imagine eating dinner at 8 when I've spent the whole day getting ready... I'd pass out!!
