Barcelo Maya Palace Brides

The lights at Playa Azul are put up for special occassions so you have to pay for them. It's $5 per string.

Oh that sounds perfect!  Thanks so much!

The palace lobby bar has a huge outdoor seating area. You can plug in an ipod docking station and continue the party there. There is always food laid out and of course free drinks.

Any idea how many strings of lights they have?

Do you know the 'name' of the Palace lobby bar?

They setup 8 trees for us. I have to believe they'll do as many as you want.

I believe its the "Carey Lobby Bar". When you walk into the main lobby of the hotel the check in desk is on your left and the bar is on your right.

Hi Ladies,

 

 

I'm back from my site visit and now I'm between two choices for the wedding: Now Jade and Barcelo Maya Palace.  They are both very beautiful resorts, but different from each other.  Fortunately, my date: Feb 26, 2013 is available at both! So now I just need to make my decision.

 

Does anyone have recommendations on travel agents that they worked with for travel/room rates for Barcelo????  I would really appreciate any leads.  I really want to contact a few travel agents over the next few days in order to iron out the travel/hotel contract and send my STD's.  The Wedding Coordinators told me that once I blocked the rooms thru a travel agent, that my date would be booked.  

 

So please, if any recent brides can recommend a travel agent that they worked with for their wedding, or if you have any tips on the best way of going about finding one.  I'd really appreciate all your recommendations and advise!  Either post, private message, or you can email me: carolinechirinos@gmail.com.

 

Thanks so much ladies!!!!  I'll be posting my pics of Barcelo Maya soon along with my review of the other hotels that I visited during my site visit.

 

-Caroline

Hey Ladies!

I have a question about paper lanterns. We are having the reception at Palmeras Grill (the open air grill) has anyone or is anyone using paper lanterns in this space? How many do I bring with me? 

[JoanneIreland]

Are you having your reception outside the grill or actually inside? The grill is huge, and the ceilings are really high so you might be best to check with your w/c on this.

Ask if they could string something across (above tables and dance floor area) to attach the lanterns to being the palapa roof is sooo high, depending on how many guests you have will depend upon how large an area you will occupy in this space, its quite large.  Best wishes to you.
