Dreams Cancun June 2012 wedding! Advise on anything PLEASE

[sheenamae]

We had our wedding in Cancun 12/21/11.  Although we didn't end up booking at Dreams, we ended up going with the same vendors that were highly recommended from brides on Dreams forums.  We went with Amorcito Corazon Studio for our photography.  The photographer's names are Anel Fuentes de Maria and her partner, Jacob.  They've done a lot of weddings at the Dreams resort, so they know the best places to take pictures.  Anel and Jacob's work was so amazing - better than we could've ever hoped for.  We had 2 photographers for the wedding & TTD, all of our digital prints, slideshow, and their prices were much more affordable and reasonable than all of the other popular photographers we had seen on this site.  The quality of their work was some of the best photojournalistic style photos, yet almost 1/2 the price.  Check out our slideshows: http://mylenearturo.amorcitocorazonstudio.com/#/ceremony/.  Here's their website: http://amorcitocorazonstudio.com/#/weddings/. 

 

We used DJ Doremixx, which was recommended all over this site, and they were awesome.  They really made it a partay with their glow sticks, balloons, masks, lights, and fireworks (which were all included with their basic DJ package). 

 

To save money, you could have any flower arrangements you buy or bring for the wedding ceremony, transferred to the reception site so you don't have to pay double.  Your wedding coordinator should take care of this.  Also, if your reception is outdoors, don't waste too much time or energy on table centerpieces or decor.  The natural beach scenery is breathtaking alone.  www.save-on-crafts.com is a great place to buy preserved flowers for decor or your hair or cake (this is what I did) - much cheaper than ordering from the resort - and the flowers look fresh.  Good luck and happy wedding!
