Hey y'all, Because it seems that I need a brand new thing to worry about each and every day - today is weather! Is anyone else worried about how hot it might be in Cabo next June? Can any former June brides comment? I like warm weather (but not HOT) and we choose Cabo over Riviera Maya to avoid humidity (right, lol?). So . . . share with me your experience or what you've learned so that I know us and our guests won't melt! Thanks!! j.

Congratulations, Erika!! I really appreciate your thoughtful post, and it eases my mind just even that much more!! Ana, I appreciate your post as well - you girls are so helpful!!

Wow, such great info, thanks everyone! I'd love to get some updates from those of you who were recently married!

Great ideas! I'd really love to do a boat tour of some sort, so after all the logistics of the wedding are ironed out, I'll have to look into this - thanks!

Sounds fantastic! Congratulations!

Thanks for all the feedback you guys, I appreciate it! If anyone else has anything to add, please do, as Kurt and I are having a bit chat this weekend about it, and I'd like to have the most input possible! Thanks, j.

Yes, it's such a hard decision! We are such a foodie generation, and if you are lucky enough to live in a place where you eat a lot of fresh, organic, and deliciously prepared food, and this is what you get used to, it's hard to ask all your friends to join you at $350/night for yuck food! That's my main fear -- I can deal with "good" food, but I can't deal with "average" food or below. As for your menu, I'd go surf & turf!

Thank you Cessy, I really appreciate you chiming in!! It helps to know that people of all ages would enjoy it -- I was worried that maybe it was a bit on the younger-want-to-party-til-all-hours kinda crowd, which is fine, but to an extent, you know? Anyway, appreciate it!

Hey Erika, that's so exciting that you leave in just a couple days! Can't wait to get your impressions when you get back. I think you know all of my questions. I would love to get a general sense of age range, and how loud (or quiet) things tend to get around the resort in both daytime and nighttime hours. Most of our groups will be in their early 30s, quite a few with kids, so we just want to be sure the environment is right, too. Anyway, enjoy yourself, and I'm looking forward to hearing your full report! Bon voyage! j.

Oh! I didn't realize that you didn't have to pay the regular wedding fee/guest on top of the guest pass fee. Just paying the guest pass fee, and not the other on top, is really no big deal! Erika, is that something that you had to work out with them, or is that just standard protocol? Thanks!! j.

Thanks you guys, I really do appreciate your replies! Does anyone have anything to chime in on the guest pass issue? Erika, how is that working out for you guys?? Tammy, I have a food blog too: Dreamy Dish ? Recipes, tutorials and inspiration for the home cook. That's too funny. I'm going to check yours out!! j.

Hey everyone, So I thought we had everything set for a wedding at Dreams on June 4th, 2010, however, after reading some reviews of the resort, my fiancé is really hesitant about having our wedding there. I know there are a lot of Dreams brides on this forum, both those who are already married, and those who are going to be, and I could really use some honest insight. Keep in mind we'd have between 50-75 people at the wedding, a few kids, and most people would be in the 29-50 age range (with most in their 30s). The main concern is the quality of the food. We know the type of quality of the food our friends like to eat, and while you don't go to a resort strictly for the food, this would be quite a sticking point if it's not good. Most of our friends are from California, and expect high-quality, fresh food, especially when traveling. So if you have a strong opinion about this, and tend to really care about food yourself, I'd appreciate honesty. PM me if you don't want to reply to this message publicly. The next concern is random stuff we've read like flies being everywhere when you're eating, waiters and room service folks demanding tips in order to give you your food/drink/whathaveyou, and finally, that drunken people are everyone, the noise around the resort is terrible, and guests are rude. Finally, the whole guest pass fee for non-resort guests . . . I didn't originally think this would be a problem at all, but it seems to be a bigger issue by the day. Many people want to say at other resorts, and some have homes or timeshares. The fee for these passes could quickly get out of hand! Any advice or experience with this? I really do appreciate any public or private feedback you can provide us, since this is such an important day. I know we all have different views of what's acceptable and what's not, but generally I'm just trying to gauge the real picture. Tammy (my TA) and I are going to chat about this next week when I have real time to sit down and talk it through, but in the meantime, would LOVE your feedback. Thanks much, Jenn

Wow, great ideas, thanks everyone!!

Thanks you guys, I'm so excited!! I'll feel better once some of the details are out of the way!!
