Any RIU Tropical Bay Brides?

[soon2bmrsn]

Hi all! I'm getting married April 8, 2009 at the RIU Tropical Bay and was wondering if there are any other brides out there who've been married or are going to get married there? I'd love to see some pics or hear any advice if you've got it!

Thanks!!

Hi! Welcome to the forum!

 

We looked into getting married at Tropical Bay because some of our Jamaican friends said the beaches in Negril are the best in Jamaica. But when we were trying to book online, they had all of July 08 - December 08 grayed out. We later found out that they are going through renovations during that time. So we chose Ocho Rios.... But we had friends who went there on vacation last year, they loved it.

I have April 17th '09 reserved for RIU Negril. I originally wanted Tropical Bay but I was told that they can not accomodate a private reception, which is what I want. I have to make my decision soon --this is so stressful! I'm worried about making the wrong decision...

 

I'm glad to see that someone else is going to be going through the same things as I am, and around the same time.

I'm likely to be at Riu Montego Bay in March 2009. The resort doesn't open till Sept this year, so we can't book our wedding date till then...but we are very close to purchasing the flights and hotel.

 

If something happens and the hotel doesn't open on time they will send us to one of the other resorts...so I could turn out to be a ROR or RTB bride in the end

I too have heard about the renovations at Riu TB. I have heard they are in order to turn the place into a Riu Palace of which there are none in Jamaica. My friends have been to Riu Palace in other places and really loved them. FYI

I will be getting married at RIU TB 6/14/08. I'm just finishing up with tons of stuff. Felling a bit overwhelmed and sad I just found this forum!!

 

Let me know what you would like to know...

Frecks,

I'm just wondering what flowers you are having and if you are paying for a different cake.

We have 33 guests, so I'm not sure what to do about the cake.

Thanks!
