Barcelo Maya Palace should be the best among all....

I was just wondering if anyone knows about confirming your wedding date for 2010. Right now my fiance and I have May 3, 2010 on hold but need to send in our flight/accommodation itinerary in order to CONFIRM the date. I emailed Claudia awhile ago and she said that they are making an exception and will give us until the 2010 wedding packages come out, but she also said something about how it's usually five months from when you reserve the date. So does that mean that the itinerary is due when they come out with 2010 packages or will it be due 5 months AFTER the 2010 packages come out?

 

I have sent her an email but it's been almost two weeks and there's no word from her, any help would be much appreciated!!!

I too am dealing with Claudia. We have May 7th 2010 reserved. From what I understand you can hold the date without your resort and plane reservation up until 5 months prior to the wedding date. Obviously the sooner the better.

Oh perfect, so if we want to book our flights/accomadation online we can do that? It's so much cheaper it's unreal.

 

Also, for any body who has quite a bit of their wedding planning done, do you know the colors available for linens, for the tables, chairs, etc? I'm trying to get my colors all planned out and I'm curious what's available? Does anyone know where you can get chair bows for cheap if they don't offer many colors?

[kbbride]

For the table and chair linens we used white on white. They have a few different colors, but the choices aren't that extensive. They offered a aqua blue, white, cream, coral, and a couple different shades of red. I think there are more options that you can pay for, but I never saw them because I wanted white on white. I would double check with your WC.

Has anyone had their reception on the beach and if so did you get the dance floor?

Hi Past & Future Barcelo Brides!! My fiance and I are getting married at the Palace on January 8, 2010. We put the date on hold with Claudia. A few days ago we called the hotel directly to make a reservation for our week stay. It was a little pricey...$3,400...but it includes everything as you all know, and we got an oceanview suite! Does this price sound accurate? They didn't require a deposit which we found odd. I mean, we are having our wedding there...wouldn't they want that guaranteed? We then proceeded to email Claudia with our confirmation number. She hasn't responded yet. So, there's no deposit for our reservation (which we were told we could cancel up to 48 hrs prior), yet our wedding will be on hold? This all sounds strange. What was the process with everyone else? How were payments made? Upon arrival? Any feedback/advice would be great!! Thanks
