La Barcaza - Opinion
AR-DreamWedding replied to AndreaCleveland's topic in Destination Weddings in Dominican Republic
Like Wayne, I had a similar experience with La Barcaza and now that my wedding is over I am free to write reviews as I see fit without being bullied by them. When the change over of ownership was made I decided to write and welcome the new owners and find out if they would be upholding everything that was already agreed upon with the previous owners. Please not I had already sent over my $1000 deposit via Western Union and my invites with all the information for my wedding were already sent out. I was having a hard time hearing back from Daniel so I decided to just call him and when I did, I was very upset to find out that he (and his parents the owners) would not hold up things that were already agreed upon. Needless to say I asked for my deposit back and after two months of arguing with them they agreed to send me back half. In the end they sent me less than half and I had to change my entire wedding.... including venue and the date I was to be married. Because of Daniel (and his parents) I had many complications to my wedding planning process and with 6 months left before my date I had to change every single thing!!! Despite the beauty of having a boating excursion I would strongly recommend not using their services, as they are sub-par to what La Barcaza was previously upholding. To top it off Daniel's father is a crude man with very little people skills. Daniel is ok but he makes no decisions independently and is very disorganized. I thought I would share seeing as someone else had a similar experience and was being bullied into removing their post because they wanted to help prevent others from making a big mistake. There are many other wonderful boating companies in Punta Cana and again I strongly recommend you do your research and choose another boating company who has a better reputation. Warmest Regards, AR-DreamWedding -

Hey Kelz, I have sent you the wedding outline so hopefully it will help you to organize your plans. In addition, YES Mayte does do every single detail to the last drop (this includes hand making things) when it comes to the décor. I can personally attest to this as I have been to her home and know just how much she puts into each detail of every brides dream wedding. Happy Planning! AR-DreamWedding Hey Scott (PuntaCana2014a), I was unable to send you the outline as your email address was not written clearly.... wondering if you can re-send it to me. Warmest Wishes!

Hey Heather82, Mayte does not make the Thank you notes that you see in pictures however, I will tell you that I was going to go through the trouble of making them and then realized that it would be a big waste of time because guests will not really appreciate them seeing as we were giving them wedding gifts at the rehearsal dinner. I did buy fans and what not to put on everyone's chair and when the night was said and done most people were so preoccupied with dancing/drinking that most people left the fans and/or anything else that was decorative and not their personal items. So with all of that said, I would recommend you save yourself the time/stress and not bother with them. Mayte makes the lovely menus and they serve as decoration enough for each plate. But this is totally up to you I am sending you the outline right now. Hope you have a wonderful New Year with your fiancé, full of nothing but love that will last you a lifetime AR-Dreamwedding -

So disregard what I wrote you prior... you need to send a deposit ASAP if you have not already. You could lose your date if you don't have a deposit made, as the calendar is now being managed by the owner of the Jellyfish and only dates that have a deposit paid are secure. Just sent it to you... sorry for the delay. Have you received a price list yet? Let me know and I will send it to you. There is only a 2013 pricelist that I am fairly sure will not change significantly in 2014. Please note that if you had sent me a message in my "Inbox" and I have not managed to reply, it's because your message has been deleted since the update on this website. Feel free to re-write me if you have any questions regarding the Jellyfish . -

Hey Ladies, Just wanted to put myself out there in case some of you have a ton of questions or just need some guidance. I am a personal friend of Mayte's and know just about everything there is to know regarding the JF. Whatever I do not know I will always direct you to Mayte or find out the answer to your question(s) when time permits. Mayte answers emails based on priority of your wedding dates and she truly does get over 100 emails a day! The busy season has already started and there are some weeks ahead where she has a wedding everyday... that means that she will have to balance arranging the wedding for that day from 8am until quite late at night (this does not include having to meet with each bride for their pre-meeting). So have patience, especially if your wedding is not until next year. She answers most of her mail based on how close your wedding date is.... the closer it is the more detailed her emails will be, otherwise expect short responses for the time being. With that said I don't mind helping wherever I can with whatever I can. Please feel free to use me as a resource I try to check this website every other day but if you want to reach me sooner just PM me and I will get it directly. Many of you have been asking me some amazing questions in my PM (private mail) that I am sure many others would love to hear the answer to as well, so I do suggest you write the more generic questions on the main page that way everyone can gain knowledge from the answers. I really enjoy giving back to everyone since everyone was here for me in my time of need Wishing all of you a wonderful time planning! Warmest Regards, AR-DreamWedding P.S: I also have a wedding outline that I created and used for my wedding that I am willing to share with anyone who thinks they may need some help organizing their thoughts. Just let me know if you need it! -

It seems when you ask her two or three questions she may answer one of your questions in one sentence and leaves the rest unanswered...lol. I understand she's amazing and will make things work somehow but I would like to know that what I want as far as decor is possible or any other questions I may have. I would rather write one email with all my concerns in hopes to get a long reply back that way I won't have to bother her as often. I heard a while back of a spreadsheet that was going around and it seemed rather helpful to communicate all concerns to Mayte. Can someone forward this to me? Or recommend the best way to get all my answers from Mayte? My email is [email protected] Hey Dania97, I just sent you my wedding outline. I do hope it helps Let me know if you have any questions as I can answer just about anything regarding the Jellyfish. I try to check on here several times a week but if anything just PM and I will get it right away via my email. Happy Planning! -

With the Crazy Hour you get all the entertainers you mentioned plus the Fire Show is included. I have heard of brides mentioning that there were buses ready and the older crowd leaving earlier. John (Jehison) is actually the MC and his English is very good. The DJ's name is DJ “McGiver†Jorge and he has just about every single song you can possibly think of... remember he has been there for years now and has done well over 500 weddings there. Just think of all the different kinds of music he would have downloaded... WOW If there is a song that is completely obscure and you are worried about him having it, I suggest that you download to your personal IPod and bring it with you OR write it in your plans for Mayte. She will pass it on to him and he will for sure have it downloaded for your special day. There is not much of a point to messaging John directly as he is under Mayte's instruction. I strongly suggest you avoid causing a conflict of interest by messaging him. Just put your list of songs in your plans for Mayte she will ensure it gets to the DJ as she sees him on every-other-day basis. Happy Planning All -
