Yes I do love hearing the stories. Keep them coming I know if my son is in the wedding I will have a funny one.

These are all great ideas. There we would be no dought in my mind to include my son in the wedding if he was not my FI son . Which does not really make any sense. lol. But thanks for all your tips and kind words. I am thinking he will be the ring bearer. We might be fishing the ring out of the sand or ocean but it will be a cute story.

I am glad I started this post. And it has relieved some of the stress off you guys. I know it has me. I really want to keep it simple mostly because of the budget and also I do not have enough time to do anything. I have a three year old and I swear when I do anything wedding related he knows and is a little monster. I can not get anything done. lol

I think we have something like 18 rooms booked so far, so these details make a big difference to us. It's so tough cause I know that these contracts fluctuate and that you can't always compare your contract to everyone else's... but I truly am a frugal princess and want it all for less! You should be getting kids for free no matter what. I would talk to your travel agent. Have you talked to you agent about getting the 6th room for free? I would if I were you.

Did you book your flights and resort as a package? Or are you doing it separately? Flights prices seem so high right now. This whole thing is getting to be a little extravagant for a trip for everyone coming. Is anyone else having problems with the price of the resort and flights?

No worries it is fine. Thanks anyways.

I am soooo pissed right now. Basically they can care less! I am going home tonight and looking through the paperwork to see if it says it on our confirmations. How can they just get rid of a promotion? That is totally FALSE ADVERTISING!!! I understand that their promotions change, however, we should be grandfathered in!! That pisses me off too THey know that we can not do anything about it. We already have our weddings booked and guest coming. They should at least give us some kind of incentive's but they did not offer anything. I am really getting kind of upset with the resort. This is not the first thing that they have done that I find is false advertising. I guess they do not realize or care that we can switch to any other dreams resort if we want after we put a deposit down on our wedding. It seems that the customer service at the resort is not the best when it comes to trying to make their guest feel that they are important. I thought that is what dreams is all about. I have guest that are going to be very dis pointed about this. They are already upset that they are having to spend so much to stay at the resort. There is no way they are going to pay a additional price to go play golf knowing that it was included when they booked their trip. I am going to pm you my email and if my agent gets any different answers I will let you know./

On top of that, those of my guests who have booked already show "Complimentary golf" on thier confirmation...of course now we have two different courses showing for our guests...what a mess! I'll let you know if my TA is able to get anywhere with them. I'm fuming...thanks for letting me vent Thanks girls my TA is doing the same thing. I am annoyed too. If I find out anything sooner I will let you know. You do the same.

Tammy thank you for your advice. But I am completely and utterly confused. My TA is telling me to book my flights on line. My wedding is in May and we have booked 12 rooms with dreams riveria cancun resort. I have booked these rooms with her. She says if we see a price on line that we can deal with then go with. Right now I am not seeing anything from Dallas Fort Worth area for Cancun to be under 450 dollars and this is awful times. If I am not supposed to used these sites but my TA tells me to book my flights on line where do I need to go to do this? Do I just need to go straight with American Airlines or Sun country. Thank you so much if you get back to me. I am really stressed out. I wish I had found this site much sooner.

This complimentary package includes: * Service of justice of peace or minister * Wedding Organization and personalization of our Wedding coordinator * Preferential location of the room in the category reserved * Preparation and ironing of the wedding dress and grooms tuxedo/suit * Complimentary room for the groom the night before the wedding (based on availability) * Bride's Bouquet * Boutonniere for the groom * Wedding cake and sparkling wine for 10 guests * Special turn down service at night * 15% discount on all Spa treatments (product purchases not included) * Honeymoon Package * Late check-out for Bride and Groom (based on availability) * Use of the wedding gazebo or beach front casita * Complimentary anniversary nights (2 free nights when staying a minimum of 5 nights over first anniversary date or 1 nights free when staying a minimum of 4 nights over first anniversary date)* This is what is listed on there website. I do not think you will get any flowers except for your bouquet. The pictures that I have seen for just the free wedding was the one on the beach. I have never seen any pics of it under the gazebo. You can always buy additional add on's at the resort. There is a price list a view pages back with pictures I think.

Sorry I guess I should have said what are the prices and what does it include. We are bringing a photographer and we are able to get a videographer instead with our package.

Hey ladies you can get banned on here for asking someone to email you. I just did a while back and it sucked. I do not want you girls to get in trouble. You have to have 150 posts to be able to download attachments. If you start a post and you are active with it you get a point every time you respond to your own post. Hope that helps.

Does anyone know the prices of the vidoeographer at the resort?

That is a weird one too. Love it!!

Thanks I thought I had seen someone ask this and it was taken care. No biggie.

Could a mod delete my number 15 post. I think it was taking the wrong way. After reading TA Mauren's replie she got me thinking. I would hate for what I wrote to be taking the wrong way by my TA or anyone else for that matter. Thanks a bunch.

Thanks for your responses

Thanks girls. I want him to be at the wedding. He is just going threw that whole terrible three stage. So I hear the weddings do not take that long maybe about 15 to 20 mins. So maybe if I give him a job to do like pick up sea shells or draw in the sand he might contain his wild self for that long.

I'm not sure of the technical term, but it's a word match search. Also, I just merged you "Maggie Sottero" thread, and realized that you might not have got any results in your search b/c you spelled it "Sorrento", or something similar. I can't remember exactly how it was misspelled... Okay this is what I am doing. I will pick the area that most apply's to the question that I have. Then I will go to the search bar on top of the right hand side of the threads that are posted. I will type in the main words that I would think would be under the post. Then I will have random things show up. For instance I just typed in dinner recipes and I get the best work out tapes I have ever owned, get fit 2010 brides. Which I do understand that those post might actually have some recipes in them. But that is not really the kind of recipes that I was looking for. I understand that you do not want a bunch of the post that all say the same thing. Sorry again for the inconvenience. As for the dress thing I did spell it wrong and thanks for colliding that post together.

That is what I tried to do with him for the other wedding. No such luck. I was not in the wedding but I had to pretty much pick him up and carry him down the aisle. It was so embarrassing. But funny looking back at it.

Ha ha I will stay away from the sea urchins too. Great now I will be dreaming about that. lol

I am glad you responded to this. There must be something wrong with my search bar. Because I am searching and I have done it in many different ways. I have read and did everything that is posted on how to search for topics. And the topics that I have posted are not coming up when I search them. I am really not trying to put useless post up if they have already been started. Sorry for the inconvenience but please let me know what I need to do differently so I do not have this problem again.

It is so random and I usually do not dream and remember them. But it is so vivid. I will make sure all the guest stay clear of the jelly fish including me!!
