The new Dreams Tulum thread! (Post all DT Qs&As here)

[gimliori]

Heading to Dreams in 2 days and getting married in a week! Little nervous as there still seems to be so much to accomplish before we go. Reading the recent comments make me feel a lot better! I'm glad Aurora is a pro at this, I'm hoping she will be able to smooth out all the rough spots! Wish us luck!

We have about 30 people coming to our wedding. Do you think it would be fine to just use our ipod dock or is their sound system worth paying for? Thanks guys!! and I can't wait for the new reviews!!

Welcome!

For the ceremony, if you want your guests to be able to hear what is going on (your vows, the Minister speaking) you need to get the sound system which comes with a microphone, otherwise people won't hear you with the wind and the waves. As a guest to a DW where I couldn't hear anything, I'll tell you that it sucks to travel that far and not hear what is going on.

For the reception, if you want to get the crowd dancing, you'd need to have a good docking system to have the music be loud enough.

I just posted my review http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...17-09-a-52437/

 

I feel like there was a lot more I could say, but it seemed so long when it was all written out! Let me know if you have any questions. Like I said, I absolutely loved our wedding at DT, and would not have changed a thing! Thanks to all the previous brides whose ideas, designs and projects I copied as well! This thread and board in general was a lifesaver!

Have a fabulous time and an awesome wedding! I think it's inevitable to be a little nervous but just let it go once you get there and enjoy all that's important. It seems like the wedding coordinators are very experienced and will take good care of you and if anything were to go wrong, hopefully it's so minor it's barely worth mentioning in your "review"! Good luck!

Thanks,
