Does anybody know if there is a cake cutting fee? If so do you know how much it is for about 40 people?

Hi Ladies!

 

I had my wedding at Dreams Riviera Cancun and it was AMAZING!!  All of my guests (48ppl) said it was the BEST wedding they had ever been to.  This thread helped me SO much when I was planning my wedding so I wanted to put it out there that if anyone had any questions please feel free to contact me on here or you can email me @ [email protected].  My wedding cooridinator was Lorena and she was AMAZING.  I had a lot of trouble getting a hold of her up until the couple of weeks before the wedding... but just know, you are TOP priority when you are there for your wedding and they will make sure your wedding is perfect.  This resort gets and A++!!!!!  ALL of my guests felt like VIP the whole week we were there.

 

DJ:  As i was planning my wedding, i did not seen any reviews on here about the in house DJ (Cesar Mauricio Neri Salazar from Visual Sound) so  i was going to put together a playlist on my Ipod and rent the sound system....litterally a week before i was leaving for our wedding we decided we were going to chance it and get the DJ.... SO GLAD WE DID IT!  HE WAS AMAZING.  A DJ either makes or breaks your reception.... he MADE it!!  the dance floor was filled ALL NIGHT and he played great music and even took requests.  I seriously can not say enough good things about this guy.  He played everything from Frank Sinatra to Rihanna to Kenny Chesney.  Yes, he was a little pricey, but ladies do yourself a favor and spend the money because you and your guests will LOVE him.

 

PHOTOGRAPHY: The team of photographers from Adventure Photos (the in house photographers) we also AMAZING. Anel was my main contact and she was so easy to work with and really knew her stuff! Here's a link to my online slideshow if anyone would like to check it out. http://300812larkins.dreamsriveriacancun.adventurephotos.com.mx/ and a few pics are attached.

DO THE TRASH THE DRESS!!!  We got in the ocean and in the pool in my chiffon wedding dress... i let it dry in my room and you would never even know i got in the water or rolled in the sand with it on.  Looks as good as new.

 

Again, my wedding was perfect so I would love to answer any specific questions/concerns any of you might have about your wedding/reception/resort/service/accomidations/party favors/etc.... i was in the same boat as you once and this thread helped me so much!

Hi Elsa!  I had my wedding at Dreams in August and my first choice was to have my reception on the Pool Deck...  let me just say that i ended up having it in the ballroom the DAY of my wedding because we were affraid it was going to rain (it had been raining off and on the whole day)... it ended up not raining but having our reception in the ballroom was the BEST decision ever!!  We had seen some other receptions that were on the pool deck and it was not very private...it was WINDY... humid and TONS of bugs.  We got to eat & dance in comfort of AC and privacy the whole reception.  I was SO upset about the choice at first but seriously the ball room is where its at and it is BEAUTIFUL!!!

Congrats!! My wedding is in Feb2013. Just a few questions? When you booked rooms was the wedding group all together or spread out? Is it hard to request different rooms once you arrive? My ceremony is at the gazebo & I think we are just going to rent the sound system & do music our selfs for ceremony & reception? We are having 34 guests coming so the extra costs are adding up quickly. Looking at ways to save on a few items? I took the ultimate package. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you P. S do you any pics you could send me? [email protected]
