Hi, I've confirmed our wedding date for April 20, 2011 at the Barcelo Maya Tropical.

I checked out the photos from the site, they are beautiful. I would love to have someone come in to take photos, but I dont want to spend too much on them. What kind of quote did you get back from them? If your wedding is on April 15, and mine is April 20, that's a long time for them to be at the resort as well. Do they normally stay for an extended time, or do they just stay for a couple of days for the wedding? Thanks,lilly

We are having our reception at Playa Azul - so right on the beach, woo hoo! Melanie Hi Melanie, That's great that you have your reception and ceremony site booked already. We have our wedding date set for April 20, just getting the resort booked now. I see that you're paying extra for the ceremony at Coral Beach? Was the gazebo at the Palace an option as well? We'll be staying at the Tropical and I’ve read that the Gazebo is only available to those staying at the Palace. Also, did you have options for your reception site? I read that it's in the Banquet hall, but I’ve seen pictures of people who had it at one of the beach front grills? I’d love to know what kind of options are available to us, so I know what to ask for. Lilly

Thanks so much! Once the date is set and the resort is booked I'll stop worrying so much. The rest will just fall into place. I'm pretty relaxed about the whole wedding, I only wish she would email me to confirm my date.

Cara, your siggy pic is awesome! Hi! I see you're getting married on April 30. I'm waiting for my email back from Victoria confirming our date, April 20. Did you have to wait long? Did you have to call again? We want to start booking, but I'm worried about the wedding date. Thanks, Lilly

Hi! I'm just trying to get my wedding date set and resort booked. I called on Tuesday and spoke with Victoria. She told me to email the bride and grooms names and that she would repley confirming the date and time. Everyone's getting anxious to start booking. Is this the usual process? I know it takes a while for them to respond, but I'm worried that I'll loose my date. Any suggestions?? Lilly
