Dreams Los Cabos bride Roll Call

[jtalaura1]

Hi everyone.  I'm getting married at Dreams on May 27, 2012.  Does anyone know when I select flowers, decorations (chair bows, linens, etc), wedding arch, etc?  I've asked my wedding coordinator but I haven't received a straight answer.  I'm not sure if I should be picking these things out now or if I select them a few days before then wedding when I'm at the resort.  Thanks!

We're getting married on the 5th of May and I have yet to make those decisions as well.

Im in the process of planning a wedding at dreams but dont know where to start...

I am getting in touch with a travel agent to see what rates we can get for flights and hotel. Is this the best way to go?

Also, I have emailed Dreams to get information about pricing/packages offered etc, but no one is getting back to me. Is there someone in particular i should call or email.

Please let me know.

may 27th is when i got married at dreams los cabos.  usually you will not decide the flowers, decor until a month out.  if you have a specific idea of what you want, you can send images to your coordinator and see if she can get quotes for you.

I'm getting married May 5th and am wondering the same things. How do we choose the colors??

Have so much fun this weekend!!!

I went in for a site visit so I sat down and chose the colors with Magda but you can just ask her if they have the colors that you want.  She told me that they could find any color.

i just noticed in the price guide under decorations it says prices are per hour? so if i rent napkins they are gonna charge $2-$4 an hour???? did anyone rent napkins or tablecloths? if so do they actually charge per hour for them?

Hi. I am getting married at Dreams in June2012. I agree that Magda is not always on the ball about responding. But I have been able to do a lot on my own through a lot of research and hard work. Hopefully this will save other brides time and frustration.

 

Vendors we are using are as follows:

 

Ceremony and Cocktail Music- Spanish guitarist Arturo Santomayo. He is at least $200 cheaper to book on your own and not through Dreams. He has a website and you can hear his music on there. Couldn't be a nicer guy on the planet to deal with.

 

Flowers: Lola with Florenta. If you are picky about flowers- she can help you. Already we have emailed hundreds of times. She seems to be great.Go to Florenta Los Cabos on facebook to see her work. She is expensive. I paid $1900 for 4 huge centerpieces and ceremony decorations, bridal party flowers and a bag of roses. Crazy! But flowers are important to me.

 

Cake- Sweet Dreams Los Cabos. I am using the cake in the package for the rehearsal dinner because I wanted a three tier cake. I hear that Sweet Dreams is awesome. Response time is slow however so be prepared. Also a facebook page.

 

Decorations: Oxten- Hector Portugal- I got a dance floor, and fancy uplighting and dance floor lighting from Hector for the same price I would have gotten a dance floor and lanterns only from Dreams.

 

DJ Ricardo- Saved about $200 by booking on my own.

 

All in all, I didn't want to wait for the last minute for Magda to work with me on this stuff. So I booked these people on  my own, and ok'd it with Magda via email. Be prepared to wire deposits in advance when booking on your own. But I saved about $500 doing this and feel I found the best group of people to make my wedding great.
