Dreams Punta Cana - Reception Locations?

[ariday333]

Question do you guys have to request the reception location in advance, or do you let the WC know when you meet with her? Thanks!

I was not allowed to make any plans until we actually met with the WC upon arrival

We actually requested our ceremony and reception location in advance, when we booked our date with them of May 1st, 2009. We requested our time and location of ceremony (5pm on the beach) and the terrace (Bordeaux) that we wanted for the reception. Hmmmm..... seems odd that they are handling this two different ways. I haven't been in contact with the WC there as of yet b/c we need to get through the hussle and bussle of the holidays, but after the 1st of the year, I will be contacting her and hoping that what we asked for and reserved will be honored!

 

Shelley, thank you SO MUCH for all the information you provided, it helped me/us immensly with figuring out what we would like to do for our big day!

From reading different posts on the Dreams PC forum, the brides say that once they arrived they were able to chose the location for the wedding and reception.

the Bordeaux Terrace looks amazing, its crazy that I didnt even see that restaurant while I was there but I know a guest who ate there. The view is stunning. I had requested my reception site months in advance but a month before the wedding the WC had asked me again which location I wanted, which menu, etc...I didnt really have many options for the reception since we had over 50 guests, we had to go with the Himitsu Terrace which is also a very nice location.

Thanks for all the great info!

 

Does anyone know of a resort where we can have an outdoor reception that goes on later than 10:30? It breaks my heart to think of stopping our party at 10:30pm! Is it because the places we are interested in are family resorts? We were ready to book the Paradisus Punta Cana or Dreams but now we're not sure due to the time restrictions. Any advice?

Hello Everyone,

 

I just recently started planning my wedding and have officially decided on Dreams Punta Cana. However, I am looking to have 90 guests and think I will be using the ballroom, but I was wondering if anyone had any pictures of the ballroom with guests in it or just the layout. I'm nervous about what it looks like.

 

Also, is the ballroom not carpeted so that we can dance or will I need to pay the $550 for the dance floor. 

 

Any help (and pictures) would be soooooo appreciated =)

 

Thanks,

Elly
