Dreams Riviera Cancun - Brides post here (new thread)

Hey Ladies,

What are you doing about photography? Are you using the resort photographers or bringing your own? I'm just beginning the planning process and I've quickly learned that the WC's are extremly busy and slow to respond so I'm so happy I found this forum. From what I've read so far, you all seem to be very informative and have great ideas.

I got her too. She never replied to my emails. I usually just call Eva.

When is your wedding? 

 

I know I have a lot of time since our wedding isn't until December, but now I'm just worried that she's new and maybe isn't as experienced as the others?! 

 

Eva confirmed our date, time and location yesterday so hopefully that's all under control!

I was assigned the same person. I emailed her over a week ago, requested a phone conference. I have not heard from her. Mentally, I need a break from all the wedding details so I remain calmed. Once I finish this school semester I will be back to dealing with her.

Thank you for the info! Hopefully she'll be ok with answering emails!

For the ladies who haven't seen the resort yet, its absolutely beautiful!!

I am booked for September 10th, 2012. Super excited, but these WC could kill any-body's enthusiasm. I am live in NY and live by the "NY Minute". But I am not afraid to just pick a phone and call them. But by the looks of it, they all seemed competent. Right now, my issue is that I hate the centerpieces and bouquet options. I am trying to decipher should I take my own and how. I am also trying to hire an outside photographer and an outside DJ. I am crossing fingers that I win the battle.

Hey ladies. I just got back from Dreams last night. This place was amazing! I did not want to leave. We got lucky and had great weather on our Wedding day but I saw several weddings be put up and then taken down because of rain and wind. It only did that two days but every day the weather was different. 

 

Make sure to go with The Preferred Club. Its the only way to go. I had Anel for pictures and the pictures were good but I think I was expecting them to blow my mind and they didnt so I was pretty disappointed. They have so many weddings everyday, I just felt rushed. As soon as we were done they were setting up for the next wedding. Other than those little things Dreams was the best place Ive ever been.

Congrats Amanda! Can't wait to see your pictures!!

 

Are you going to do a full review?  I get married in 69 days and I am still very nervous.  As AdventurePhotos & Anel are the resort photographers....I kind of feel obligated to use them.

I just received an email from Evangelina. She answered all of my questions and "introduced" me to my new WC, Yamina.
