What did you end up picking, @@amandances?

Hello everyone! I need your help. I am planning my Oct 20th 2015 wedding in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico and I need a DJ, sound system, speakers, mic and dance floor. I need someone who speaks english because communication is key between me and the DJ before and on the wedding day. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated :D

I am sorry this happened to you!! That's really disappointing when you bring your own items, expecting them to go home with you, and now they're displayed on future weddings I know over the holidays, the wedding department went through a change, but as I read your post, it was WAY before this happened Sorry I wonder if you post on their facebook page, it will give you some more attention....

Sorry LC13 -- that's incredibly frustrating, especially with your wedding being so soon! Go on their facebook page, the planners have their own page. Search: "Drepa Wedding-Coordinators" I would post on there....

Hi LC13 - I have heard from the wedding coordinator.... I had three pending messages, and she wrote me back about two weeks, one friday night. I haven't written back, so I don't know if the wait is still happening (I'm sure it is). Areli is the new wedding coordinator and I contact her via this e-mail <[email protected]>

Since December, I have been trying to contact the WC at Dreams. Unfortunately, Jacki is no longer the wedding coordinator at Dreams PA. Sad news. I received one email from the new coordinator to tell me this, but haven't gotten any of my questions answered. The new wedding coordinator is: Areli Arriaga Wedding Coordinator Has anyone else had any luck contacting them?

I am going to lose thousands with this exchange rate

Ladies: I need your help!! What's the capacity of the El Patio restaurant? I heard you cannot secure it until the week you get there - in case they absolutely need the space for the guests (that it might be sold out etc.). Is there a max number of guests you can have booked with your wedding in order to secure it before you get down there? We have 60 people booked. OR is this only to make the restaurant private -- that you have to wait until you're down there. What if you only want semi-private? PAST BRIDES: did you make it private or semi-private and what would be your suggestion for future brides?

Thanks, Joyce I definitely need to get back in touch with you - will e-mail. We will be looking at all our options while we're there!

Loved those photos, Mrsktobe!! It looks beautiful!!

I am so excited! We just booked a trip to Mexico to do a site visit of our resort in March. We will also plan to visit BV to get an idea of the location and what they offer, to compare to the resort!! WOOHOO

I am doing a site visit here in March! I cannot wait!! I don't know if I want to take my wedding off the resort, or if the costs will add up too quickly (with both- ha).

Hi BreMarie! I haven't done much planning since late October as Christmas kinda took over my household I am getting married at Dreams in October and my fiance and I just booked a vacation there in March for a site visit and to wrap our heads around the wedding locations, and to get a better understanding of what we can do with their offerings (and ultimately how much things will cost). We hope this visit will help us clear some questions we have, plus we will also visit some other wedding locations (off-site) to see if it's a better fit for us.

Nothing is ever free But you can do it really close to it if you don't go over their limit of guests.

Can I also have a picture [email protected] Thanks!

I saw a recent photo that had a wood floor at one side of the palapa ... I guess it was just a wood dance floor that they rented. http://www.fototakeit.com/blog/andrea-hector-destination-wedding-_-casa-colel-playacar-blue-venado-beach-club/ At least there's more photos of the venue I am going to try and PM you now

Thank you for your reviews. Much appreciated !

Hi there: I am trying to gather as much information as possible to compare an off-site wedding vs resort wedding. The location I want to have my wedding is Blue Venado, but it appears that they have extremely limited decorations. I have heard of Party Planet but that's it. Can someone please let me know of any other rental companies available in the area of Blue Venado? My theme is rustic elegance. Thanks!

Sounds perfect! I think we will also be getting a dance floor in order to accommodate some of our older guests. Did you use Party Planet for yours? I bet you wish you were still down there!! You must be on such a high from your wedding -- I always feel that way after a vacation, but I can't imagine how it would feel after a vacation and a destination wedding. Can't wait to see more photos And if you think of anything else, that might be meaningful to planning, please let me know

Awwww! Great photos Congratulations :D Your dress was beautiful ! Great pick on your groom's outfit, too! Are you still waiting for your edited photos or do you have any more to share of the venue itself? Did you notice any sand bugs or mosquitos at Blue Venado? Is it true that the entire ground is sand, and you have to rent a dance floor, if you want a floor? And washrooms, what were those like? haha Again, thank you for answering all my questions! I really appreciate it

Aww ! Thanks for answering my questions! Have you received any sneak pictures of your wedding or a teaser video?

I am already very thankful for what you've provided me - thank you! My question, why does everyone get a planner, and how much does this cost? I have heard a lot of positive things about Joyce, so I must look into this. I had my phone conversation this morning with BV and like the sound of most things; but was slightly disappointed with the decor availability. I guess I am just used to Punta Cana and the wedding reception locations provide decor for a flat rate (I was originally planning our wedding there). So I am thankful you supplied vendors for your decorations! I will have to ask for their catalogs for options and prices. Where did you and your guests stay for the week in Mexico? We are staying at Dreams Puerto Aventuras and they said it's about 15-20 minute ride to BV. What transportation service did you use and how much was it? Did you get ready at the resort or at BV? Just wondering how that works there as I don't think they have a bridal suite or separate space for this. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Yes, I am supposed to speak with Sofia today. She has been so prompt with answering my e-mails, so far, which has been great! I appreciate your goals - It will definitely help future brides! Including myself. If you wouldn't mind mentioning your vendors, as well, that would be amazing! Hair/Make up DJ DEcorations Photography Videographer etc. You're my new favourite person

Congratulations!! I would appreciate any comments you can provide. I have a phone call wth BV today to discuss their options, so hopefully some things get solved. But personal experience, would be great! There's so little information, and photos online. Thanks again and I hope you wedding what everything you ever dreams of!
