We had Jaime Gonzalez and were very happy with the pictures! He was punctual and even willing to get up at 5am since it was overcast the day of the wedding and the pictures did not come out well.  Only regret I have is not hiring him for a longer period of time to get more of the shots I wanted to get.

Selling it for $100 and it's ivory color

Finally got a sneak peak of my pics..so excited! Can't wait to get them all!

I brought them with me, but they charge you per chair if you do.  However, I paid a wedding planner to come in and place the sashes so I didn't have to pay per chair and she decorated the gazebo and all for me for a price cheaper than the dreams would have charged.  But I also had the free wedding because I did not havemy reception at the dreams. 

I have attached pictures of the hairpiece I used for my wedding.  There is some wear  because I did have it in my hair for several hours but not really noticeable.  The pictures are the day I wore it and how it looks now. You can move the petals around to make it fit the way you want on your hair.

I still do not have all my professional pictures but when I do I can send more pictures with the headpiece.

It is ivory color and attached various pictures so you can see the detail.

I am asking $100 or best offer plus shipping and handling.  I am in the California.

Thanks.

Finally back from the honeymoon and was just amazed by the beauty of the wedding! I can't wait to post pictures and write a review!  Here are a few pictures of the gazebo décor (done by ultimate weddings) and the view of the gazebo from the preferred suites.

amazing photos!  We had the same thing happen, we were scheduled for 4, the ring bearer lost his pants and we didn't start ti 4:40. Photographer ran out of light, so we all got up and ready the next day at 5:30am so we could get decent pictures.  So consider this for your wedding ladies!

See links to my trash the dress shot - which will give you an idea of resort photographer (and pics during the day the next day)

Also - Here is a couple of Juan's photos. My wedding was scheduled for 4 pm but was delayed till about 4:30. We honestly just ran out of light for the couples photos. But Juan was amazing..

 

 

 

 

 

I thought someone might be able to help.  I want to add a special note in the ceremony program for some aunts and uncles who not only are attending the wedding but made extra financial donation..I just can't find the proper wording to put into the program...someone please help!! Google is not helping me

I love this dress and is similar to one I was considering getting on dressily...which style number is this and what was the price.  I love it!
 

I know there are other threads here with this information but man I hate looking through all of it.  Wanted to know if anyone is willing to share their timeline or welcome brochure they did for their wedding or upcoming wedding!  I have less than 2 months, time to get crackin on the little details.  Thanks in advance.

If they are your guest then they do not pay the fee.
 

I'm so excited! I'm in Cancun right now and did my site visit! I hired a wedding planner and she is awesome and although there is a vendor fee she is saving me money on lots of stuff! I ended up getting the free package and am hiring a shuttle that is taking us to a hall in the city! This way we can have a late party! I did cake tasting, food tasting, late night taco truck tasting! I can't believe 2013 is so close!! We are almost there ladies!

My wedding is January 19, 2013..anyone have coral sashes?

thanks!

I have the complimentary package because I am not having the reception at the resort and I will have about 50 guest.  If you get the price list, the pdf, it has the cost of everything.  It's for 10 people for the champagne but you can just purchase another bottle, etc.

I will not be serving champagne as I don't want to buy 4 extra bottles when my guest can go the bar.

This has saved me quite a bit of money and if you only have 15 guest, it might make sense for you.

While we were there my boyfriend(now fiance) proposed. We have decided to get married there in September 2014. 

 

We are having a tough time deciding if it would be worth the money to get a package. I like it simple and there will not be too many people, so I was considering the complimentary package. Did anybody get this one? If so was it nice?

 

Also, I'm thinking I will have about 15 guests. I'm not concerned about a dinner at all so i think I would be okay with the complimentary package. My only question is, will they let me do this with 15 guests? It says wedding cake and champagne for 10 guests. So could I still have 15 guests and only 10 get wedding cake and champagne?

 

if anybody has any information about this or any of the packages it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

So weird, I was told if I brought in stuff I had to pay a $100 fee for them decorate or anything like that.  I was going to buy sashes and stuff instead of paying the fee.  But in the end I ended up paying a wedding planner.  I will have to pay a $250 vendor fee but I won't have to pay for any decorations or anything as she will be bringing it.  I'm so happy I'm doing this as I will be able to have her deal with the Dreams and all that good stuff.  I am also not having the reception at the Dreams just the ceremony, so it will be nice for her to help gather my guest and ensure they get on the bus to our reception site..wow a lot of us getting married around the same time..my wedding is on the 19th..I will see many of you there!!!!  

Just a thought, if anyone who is going to be there and will have sashes, etc or any decor let me know, maybe there are stuff we can go halfers on and re-use if we have same colors.  Just a thought..not sure if it will work but you never know once the discussion comes up...

Did you sell them.  I'm interested.
 

I really like the chandeleirs they put up..anyone know where they got them or rented them from?

anyone have pictures of the floral arrangement options for the gazebo and for boquets, boutenaires, etc...I know i've seen a page with this going around but I can't find it.

Thanks!

I used a travel agent too.  this way I don't have to worry about it and my guest can contact them directly.  the travel agent contacts the hotel and you get a group rate.
 

I have claudia.  I will be arriving the 15th to Cancun but not arriving until the 17th to Dreams...boooooo we will miss eachother!  yes 7 months..woo hooo! but i haven't officially booked yet
 

I dont think you should worry. I don't have the number on hand but if you call resort and tell them to transfer you to wedding department. I e called about 5 times and they always answer the phone! Any questions you have, we might have answer to do ask away!

You said it was $580 per person if they are staying in a double, right?  If that's the case then I didn't get such a bad deal because I'm paying $439 per person for 3 nights, but I have many guest only staying for one night, so they can't get the same daily rate.  But you had better rooms, I'm getting just the deluxe rooms.  I"m going to look more into it just to be sure though.  I had the option of transfers but I chose not too because many are renting cars and shuttles are not that expensive.

It' s so great to be able to share this info.
 

I'm going through an agent too, but I'm having the free wedding because I'm just having the reception off site. Jana who did you use? Beachwed I figured that too but travel agent said if they don't book 3 nights they do not get the group rate, so they would have to purchase online rate which is $333 per night right now. Are you having same issue or do they still get same rate through your agent?
