Majestic Colonial Confirmed Wedding Dates?

MexicoBeachBride2010 · March 24, 2009

Hello all...

I just spoke with the Majestic today (yes, I gave in and called the DR) and the WC said they are not booking weddings yet until mid April 2009. I wanted to get married towards the end of May and really want to start booking stuff. Does anyone have a confirmed date in May from the Majestic and if so who did you book it with?

Hey there! I know I'm not getting married at the Majestic, but I'm assuming the situation is probably similar for all of DR. At Dreams they told me that the judge can only confirm dates about a year out, so this is why you have to wait so long to get a confirmation for a LEGAL ceremony. Such a pain for those of us who can't wait to start planning!!

In order to save money and avoid the hassle of all of the translation and documentation issues (and a little bit because I just wanted my date confirmed!) we decided to do a symbolic ceremony and I was able to get a confirmation of my date right away since a judge wasn't needed. I'm thinking it's probably the same way at Majestic, but I may be wrong so hopefully there are other brides out there who can help on the resort specifics.

Hang in there! There are a BUNCH of us in the same boat... just want to get that date booked and get the ball rolling! I don't think 2010 can come fast enough!

I can confirm that what ebredhawk said is correct for the Majestic resorts as well. It is due to the judge, who doesn't schedule 2010 until April 2009.

I too switched to a symbolic wedding so I could book sooner and get the date I was interested in. Also, then nothing has to be translated, any my guests can hear our vows in english.

I just booked with Excellence for next May 2010, and we are having a civil ceremony. Could it be the case with some resorts??
