In my opionon that is the best place to hold your reception because it is not as windy over there and it is more private. Also there is a bar right there so you wont have to go far for drinks! Let me know if anyone has any other questions. I am not getting married there but I totally would after spending a week there

Thanks so much for that info. I didn't know that about the sand!! Learn something new every day.
I'm glad to hear you say you would get married there if you hadn't already planned to hold it at DT. I've been reading the reviews on TA and was starting to get a little bit concerned. Is there an area besides the pool that would be nice for the cocktail hour. We want to do them separately.

You can do it by El Patio-Baracuda (Spelling is not my thing) Bar is over there and it pretty quiet and private. It is right near the lagoon and is really pretty over there.

We were thinking about having our ceremony and reception at the gazebo. we are only having 10-20 people and though we could have the ceremony, then they could set up tables and a buffet while we go to the bar for a cocktail hour then continue dinner at the gazebo.

 

After seeing this space do you think this would work?

Is the space by the lagoon prettier to set up a buffet rather than keeping it at the gazebo?

[Blkatz]

The gazebo is really pretty-it looks right over the water. I am sure you can do 10-20 people in there.

Hey everyone, it's been a while ...thanks for sharing all your info. the resort seems to have great reviews, I can't wait to hear from the first DPA bride!

 

I have to get cracking away on the details...yet Jacy hasn't emailed me yet for the deposit.

 

P.S. Thanks for the flowers pdf Allimay!

Does anyone plan to have a slideshow at the dinner? or inquired to see if they have a projector that can faciliate that??

Hi Ladies-

 

Only 38 days to go and to be honest my stress level has set in. I am just taking it day by day and checking things off my list to do. In regards to foot wear my mom actually had beautiful flip flops made for me they are white with a 1 1/2 wedge covered in swarsoski (sp) cyrstals. I know is sounds cheesy but they are perfect. Please know that I will of course be doing a review on the resort once we get back from the wedding we come home March 4th. We are honey mooning at Dreams Tulum =) I am sure that I am driving Jacy crazy right now. I am trying to convince her that the $18 extra for the cocktail is crazy!! I will let you know how the fight goes. Please let me know if there is anything that you want me to find out in particular and I will.

How exciting for you!! I guess you're officially #1 - at least for this board! Did you decide where you're holding your cocktail hour/reception or are you waiting 'til you get the DPA ? What plan did you pick? Are you having more than 20 people? is that why the $18 additional for the cocktail hour?
Good luck with everything - can't wait to hear how things go!

[aaronsgirl]

Oh how exciting! I love that some of the brides weddings are getting close. Can't wait to see pics and hear reviews.

 

What package is everyone getting? We decided on the Ultimate because it just seemed to have everything.

Hi Rory,

 

As of right now we have 48 guest attending. We have not choosen any locations as of yet. I think we will decide once we get down there. We did choose the ultimate package also!!!
