BARCELO MAYA TROPICAL 2012 BRIDES?

[modizzle]

Hello fellow brides!

 

I'm looking for topics for specifically the Barcelo Maya Tropical - are you getting married there... or have you recently?

 

I see a lot for Barcelo Maya Palace -- but not a lot of recent posts for Tropical - but i may be mistaken, help!

 

I'm looking at doing my wedding there Nov 2012 - but haven't booked yet as I'm not certain it's the resort for me!

I am having the same issue trying to find people that are getting married at the Tropical and not the Palace.  Did you book your wedding?  We are getting married August 13, 2012 at the Tropical.

Hello!

 

I am a Palace bride as I wanted the Gazebo for our reception but our guests are all staying at the Tropical.

 

I would still definitely check out the Barcelo Palace forums because the packages are the same no matter which resort you are staying at...Coconut, Blueberry, Mint, strawberry, tangerine, chocolate. It also seems not all of the brides are Palace brides and I've noticed that typically the info that they share applies to all weddings at the Barcelo Maya complex.

 

Our wedding is Nov 28th, 2012 and we have a bunch of planning completed already so feel free to ask questions!

 

Good luck and happy planning!!!

All the packages are the same no matter which hotel you stay at. It really just depends on the package you pick as to where you can get Married and have your reception! Really the only difference is if you choose to do something at the palace (ex: have your ceremony at the gazebo you may have to end up paying a little extra per person (IF YOU DON"T STAY THERE), I think I read that on the unofficial Barcelo Maya Forum website THIS SITE HAS LOTS OF GOOD INFO TOO!!)  But when it comes down to it there really is NO difference, other than what you want to pay for your room and the amenities that come with each resort. Some of the beaches that the Palace brides get married at and or have their reception at is actually at the Tropical or Beach resorts....The complex itself is HUGE, BEAUTIFUL, and in a nutshell perfect. Most of the pictures you probably see are in fact at the Tropical or Beach areas....With it getting so close to November you may not get a huge selection as to your choices of reception area...They may end up putting your reception at the palace no matter what. I started planning in December for my 10-6-12 wedding and there was ONLY 2 choices as to where I could get married.  Good luck and happy planning I hope this helps you a little.

Hi there,

 

I shot about 20 wedding at Barcelo Maya resorts. Thanks to this experience I wrote  a list of tips for brides having their wedding there (different ceremony and reception locations, best hour for the ceremony depending the season, …)

 

Hope that will help you!

Hi everyone!

Im having my wedding at the barcelo tropical as well in april 2013 and was wondering if anyone can give me information on where or not u can bring your own decorations

I know it's not specific to the Tropical, but as mentioned above, the details of the wedding planning and packages is all the same for the Barcelo resorts, whether it be the Palace or Tropical/Colonial. I would suggest you check out the large Barcelo Palace thread on here, it has SOOOOO much valuable information!

 

Happy planning

just to throw a wrench into this discussion.....we are getting married at the Barcelo Maya Colonial November 27, 2012!!  Not much info on on here about it either BUT we have been to the Barcelo Maya complex 7 times over the last 5 years so let me assure you that it's the best resort for a wedding in the area.  We have been to a few others as well and keep coming back here!!!  good luck planning and feel free to ask me I am happy to help!
