Thanks for sharing. It seems like the in house photographer does a pretty good job.

I agree, they are not the best pictures, but the photographer did a pretty good job!

I think this couple just picked the alternate location, because their other pictures are outside and the weather looks great! The alternate location looks good though, so that is a relief.

I noticed that their reception was in a restaurant.... I wonder how they managed that one? I emailed the resort to find out about the restaurant closing and to see if they all are always opened... I was told there is usually one closed per day, based on occupancy. I wonder if you could use the one that is closed for your reception if the weather is bad? I do not want my reception in their "ballroom".... I do not like the looks of it, too business looking.

I mentioned earlier about the golf not being included, I finally heard back from Dreams and they told me "Unfortunately, after May 1, 2010, golf will be 195 USD per game...." I am SOOOO pissed about this! One of the reason I picked the resort is because my FI and father are big golfers and looked forward to playing golf at El Cameleon.... now, they may play one time, but they have to pay almost $250 with the cart fees and green fees!!! I think this is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous. My TA is trying to work on this for me because I think they should honor it, since when we booked they offered complimentary golf. .... just an FYI for any of you who told your guests golf was included

Thanks for sharing the pictures! How did you find those? I wonder what the situation was with the restaurant...

My wedding is not until 03/12/2011 and I just paid the deposit of $500.00 yesterday to reserve the date. You should make sure that your date is still reserved.

Pictures were beautiful! Makes me so excited for my day!!! I loved her flower arrangement also. Since Ana is sooo busy, I don't want to bother her with little things so can anyone tell me what the weather is like the end of October and when the sunset is? Ana has still not let me pick my time. Also, any other October brides out there...what colors are yall doing? And, is anyone having a gazebo wedding?

Do we get the honeymoon suite? I just booked a garden view room.

We had to book the honeymoon suite. There are only like 3 on the property is what my TA told me. I wonder what the rooms are next to the suite...maybe some of my guest can book them so at least we'll be next to ppl we know? Also, was the suite spacious? I've heard it's just a little bigger than the regular rooms and I'm worried about getting ready on the big day and having enough room for everyone to fit in. We looked into upgrading to the Master Suite but the difference in price was large and I'ld rather it go towards my photographer. Did u happen to take any pics of the room when you stayed there?

I want to know where she got her dress..
