Another Newbie

I recently got engaged and have been looking for places around my hometown, Charlotte, NC, to get married, but haven't found anything that I love. So I'm now looking into the possibility of a destination wedding. All of the information, websites, etc. are a little bit overwhelming though, so I'm hoping this site will help me figure out my best options. I'm looking forward to learning more from others who have already been through all of this!

Hey congratulations on your engagement KC! It is overwhelming until you find your location (or so I hear! I'm still searching the tons of resorts in the Mayan Riviera...)

But you've come to the right place to get all the info you need (and more!).

Welcome to the BDWF!

Thanks for the welcome! I think I've actually narrowed it down to the Mayan Riviera too, although I have just begun searching through all of the resorts there... Good luck and congrats on your engagement too!

Welcome to the forum and good luck. I am getting married in the Mayan Riviera next month, at Barcelo Maya. I'm sure you will find somewhere you will love. Barcelo is a large resort, which I thought would be nice so our guests don't get bored at the resort...we really shouldn't have to leave. I've also been the Iberostar (in the Mayan Rivera) that is also a beautiful resort.

Wanted to add; that choosing the resort is one of the hardest decisions because you have so many options! Once you narrow it down, the decisions get easier (at least for me they did). If you have a travel agent you might see if they could suggest a few resorts they have been to; then research them and see if you love any of them.
