Moving to another resort???
Sandy Planner replied to colm226's topic in Wedding Etiquette, Traditions, to dos
Yes Ladies most of the couples go to other resort and , If for some reason they stay in the same resort they just have a "farewell brunch" the day after the wedding to say goodbye to everyone and then enjoy the rest of stay by themselves. Regards Sandy -
Hello Ladies: I wanted to make a quick note about the cakes that we produce , all the orders should be done thorugh Claudia your WC , we bake the special wedding cakes for Dreams because they know our procedures and quality and how clean our chef works....I didnt mean that you can bring any cakes with no vendor fee , or directly with me , all the cakes that we have done were order through Claudia. I am sorry ladies for any confusion! I can give you general information in terms of flavors or design etc...but the order by itself should be through Claudia or Ceci please. I just wanted to help..Thank you!! Sandy

Hello Ladies : Congratulations for your upcoming wedding , I just wanted to share with everyone interested in a non resort location for wedding in Playa del Carmen or Riviera Maya , I have visited Sol y Luna Villa and I highly recommend that, they have their chef there and I am sure you will enjoy the privacy and intimacy of the Villa . I also went to Blue Venado and if you are looking for Totally private Beach wedding this would be the option for you , It is only 15 miuntes from Playa and their staff is uper friendly and very good food!! Please if you ever need any advice in hotels or non resot venues feel free to ask me.. Congratulations again!!! Sandy

Dear Michelle: They are super friendly , Iam sure they will help you with that but you can get the glue in Michaels I dont think they have it available , the hotel is very limited in decor and items for decor....the glue is in Spray and it is not very expensive ...in worst case escenario let me know when is your wedding and I can drop a bottle for you, my designer can get it easily and it is unexpensive. The aisle is pretty large but I would say 15 meters would look nice . My Pleasure Sandy

Hello Ladies: For some people the cake is very important ,some other consider it non important ...Claudia the WC at Dreams was very nice to called me, she had a bride that really want a pretty and elegant cake ...we just deliver onw with Orang flavor and chocolate filling. Claudia explained me that the pastry in the resort is very limited they dont have an specialized chef for wedding cakes ...they are focus in dessrts and all the other things that need for the hotel. She is super nice and doesnt charge vendor fee or something like that. She trsut that the cake will be done , good taste and deliver on time. Check below one of the cakes that we made: Everything edible!!

I have found a location for bride that was not happy with her Recepcion Location in one hotel in the Cancun Hotel Zone . It is 20 minutes from Cancun Hotel Zone , we are picking the group after Ceremony on the hotel (ceremony will be on the beach at the hotel) , This Quinta is the middle of the Jungle and it has very mexican and tropical ambience.....the great news is that there is not TIME LIMIT , We will have some SAFE taxis after dinner for the ones who want to leave earlier...Check the pictures below ....It is a Huge Palapa with beautiful garden and pool terrace....It also has an hospitality room for babies or the bride to fresh up...

Hello Girls , I wanted to share with you some pictures of Welcome Bags that we have made in the past for my clients, as you better know not everyone have enough toiem to put together the bags so as planner we took care of that ,,,also other bride told me that it would be alot of suitcases to carry so they ask me to help them on that...I was very lucky because I get very good quality towels since the factory is here and provide towels to many of the resorts in the area...I just make sure to personalize them.

I had the pleasure to see this re opened resort Blue , It is just a dream...the suites are impeccable they have few suites it is a very small hotel... It is an all inclusive but other level!! Very luxury and personalized service , the architecture make all the rooms to be connected in somehow with water and nature , they have water all around...also there is a cenote , and many of the rooms have their own pool... The spa is amazing it has very elegant and relaxing cabins.... The management is about to finish a new pear...which will be a perfect location for weddings, this place is for all those couples that are looking for luxury service , modern and very personalized service. This being the first year of the resort as Blue Diamond they may offer you great deals... specially for groups or weddings , you can contact Daniel Ceballos the Comercial Director...

Dear PS31 , Congratulations for your wedding YES Ramon is a great coordinator....as you said many of the little thing will be discussed upon arrival ...I really love Now Sapphire as wedding location....something I really would like to share with everyone is that the planning form is SUPER important for Ramon and Anel they have to send monthly reports for everyone to plan all the food orders , the staff to work in your receptions , for the musicians , for the DJ etc.... it is really important they have on time the planning , as you well said little details will be discussed upon arrival but they need some important information from the planning before....they have to put together 16 different areas oin the resort Congratulations again. Sandy

Dear Melissa>: Ceci is the other wedding coordinator at Dreams Cancun , it is very difficult for them to keep good response in their emails because they are all the time out of their desk in weddings , believe once you arrive they will meet with you an go over all details. Please feel free to ask me any specific questions that you have ...I worked couple of years for DReams Resorts so I may have some answers for you Sandy

Dear AmyG: Sorry for not getting back to you earlier!! The ceremony at 5:00 pm , I really suggest to you give at least 30 minutes for pictures ....and then have the cocktail hour ... you may request Anel or Ramon serve at the end of ceremony , either sparkling wine or your signature drink...it is always refreshing after ceremony have something to drink...and then 30 minutes after start the cocktail hour... I would said 6:00 pm for cocktail hour and 7:00 Reception starts...please note that most of the time the wedding couple miss half of the cocktail hour because the photographer make photosession only with the couple. You can request during your first meeting a taste for signature drink ...if you can include a picture in the planning form it is VERY appreciated jeje Sandy

Dear Ladies: I am free to express my opinion now that I am longer for any of the hotels , the resort pictures are not BAD, but are "average and possed" , but I am sure that you can get someone better and dedicated to weddings fro a similar price ...they will charge you for any additional service ... as planner I can recommend: Juan Navarro , Sascha Gluck , Elizabeth Medina , Del Sol , also Mexican Wedding Fotos (more affordable) If you have chance to paid a outside photographer Do it .... You always can use the inclkuded pictures for rehearsall. Regards
