Hey MR! When in July?? I'm July 23rd! I think I am just going to wear my long dress and hope for some cool ocean breeze  It's a breathable material and cost way too much to change out of after a short ceremony and pictures...

Ultimate Package, Videographer.....do they record the ceremony & reception? Or just the ceremony? Past brides....how is the quality? Is it worth it?

I'm trying to decide between the love & the ultimate package. I originally got the ultimate package, but now our guest count has dropped from what we assumed (40ish) to reality (20)! So I'm taking this opportunity to save money! Thanks ladies!

It's so crazy how often the prices go up and down for these all-inclusive trips.  When we originally booked with a "group discount", we got a price of $1845 (CDN) all in.  In the last 3-4 months, there have been times (like now) where the price dropped down to $1532 all in!  That makes a big difference for people who are going as a couple, saving $600.  Now I feel bad, because I was pressuring them to pay early as a group and make sure they got their deposits in, etc.  At 10 months out it seemed like a good idea because the listed prices were $2300 - but they always seem to drop.  If I had to go back and do it all again, I'm not sure I would bother setting up the group rate at all.

Thanks so much! I ordered the long La Femme dress back in Nov and got it shipped to my house in 3 days!  I just ordered the short one 2 weeks ago and still waiting for it to be shipped.

We are doing the same thing, but we are renting a "VERY" nice house and calling it a "Cocktail Reception"

 

Hope that helps. We are hoping that the house we rent will have some type of Screening Room where we can play a constant video of pics of the wedding and our honeymoon and everything.

Hi All!

 

I got married March 7th! The resort is beautiful. All I can say is trust them they know what they are doing. I will write a full review later this week but, I just wanted to send over my slideshow so you can see my pictures. My wedding coordinator was Veronica. She was amazing to work with and easy going. I got to work with Anel at Adventure Photos who works at the resort. LOVE LOVE LOVE her. If you are getting married at Dreams I highly suggest to work with Anel!! Not only are her pictures good she is amazing to work with. She has so much energy and really made our day fun.

If you want to email me questions my email is [email protected]
