What We Handle for Your Wedding Group

Resort Selection & Contracting

We compare properties across every major all-inclusive brand — Dreams, Secrets, RIU, Palace Resorts, Hyatt Ziva/Zilara — and negotiate group contracts with preferred rates, complimentary rooms, and wedding package eligibility confirmed before you sign.

Group Room Block Management

We manage your guest room block from first invitation to final rooming list — tracking reservations, managing cutoff dates, applying the 6th-guest-free benefit automatically, and resolving any booking issues before they reach you.

Wedding Package Coordination

We confirm your complimentary package eligibility, apply every active promotion to your contract, and connect you with the resort's on-site coordinator. Beyond Memorable, Dulha & Dulhan, Shaadi, RIU Collections — we know every package system inside out.

Guest Travel Coordination

Individual guest reservations, airport transfer coordination, and travel support from inquiry to return flight. Your guests contact us directly — one phone number, one email, one team — so you don't play travel agent for 50 people.

Promotions & Savings Applied

We monitor active promotions across all brands — Savor the Sunshine, group discount windows, seasonal package upgrades — and apply every eligible benefit to your contract. Couples who book without a specialist routinely miss savings they didn't know existed.

Problem Resolution

Room assignment issues, guest booking errors, policy changes — we handle it with direct resort contacts, not a call center. Our 30+ year relationships with resort partners give us access that individual bookings don't have.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly do you handle for destination wedding groups?
We handle the travel side of your destination wedding completely — resort selection and contract negotiation, group room block management, individual guest reservations, airport transfer coordination, and wedding package eligibility confirmation. We apply every active promotion and group benefit (complimentary rooms, upgrades, welcome receptions) to your contract. What we don't do: ceremony coordination, floral, photography, or entertainment — those are managed by the resort's on-site coordinator or your independent wedding planner. We are the bridge between your guest list and the resort.
How do I start planning my destination wedding with you?
Complete the consultation form below — tell us your preferred destination (or ask us to recommend one), your estimated guest count, target date range, and any brand preferences. One of our certified destination wedding specialists responds within 24 hours with resort comparisons, current package pricing, and group room rate options. No obligation, no fee — our services are included in the resort pricing you'd pay anyway.
What does a destination wedding typically cost?
Costs vary significantly by destination, resort tier, guest count, and package chosen. A realistic range for most VFL couples: the wedding package itself ranges from $0 (complimentary Wedding in Paradise with qualifying room block) to $13,949+ (Beyond Memorable for 79 guests). Group room costs for guests typically run $200–$600/night per room depending on brand, season, and room category. For a 40-guest wedding staying 5 nights, total group travel spend typically runs $80,000–$150,000 — but this is entirely guest-funded, not out of your pocket. Your out-of-pocket costs are primarily the wedding package and any décor or outside vendor upgrades. Use our destination wedding cost calculator to build a realistic estimate for your specific plans.
Do you help guests with their individual travel reservations?
Yes — this is one of the highest-value things we do. Once your room block is established, we provide your guests with a direct booking link and our contact information. Guests book through us individually, we track who is confirmed, and we handle any changes, special requests, or questions. You don't field 40 separate "how do I book?" messages. We send you periodic rooming list updates so you always know who's confirmed. Airport transfers can also be coordinated through us for the whole group.
Can you recommend the best venue for our wedding?
Yes — property and venue recommendation is a core part of our consultation. We compare options based on your guest count (so the venue isn't too large or too intimate), group profile (adults-only vs. family-friendly, budget range, activity preferences), destination preference, and package system. Our specialists have hands-on knowledge of venues across Dreams, Secrets, RIU, Palace Resorts, Hyatt Ziva/Zilara, and more. We match you to the right property before you ever contact the resort directly. Browse our resort guides to start exploring, or let us do the comparison for you.
How far in advance should we start planning?
For most destination weddings, 12–18 months in advance is the sweet spot — enough lead time to secure your preferred date, give guests time to plan and book travel, and meet the Beyond Memorable or South Asian package 1-year advance booking requirements. That said, we've successfully planned weddings in as little as 3–4 months when dates were available. If you're considering a popular date (Valentine's Day, holiday weekends, peak season February–April), start earlier — those weekends book fast and venue availability is limited.
I'm a local destination wedding planner. How does a partnership work?
We work with local planners and coordinators as the travel partner for their US and Canadian client groups. You manage the event — we manage the travel. Your clients get a dedicated US-based contact for all room block, reservation, and transfer logistics. We handle resort contract negotiations, group rate locking, and the individual guest booking process. This frees you to focus entirely on creating an exceptional celebration. We've partnered with planners in Cancun, Riviera Maya, Los Cabos, Puerto Vallarta, Punta Cana, and Jamaica. Call us at 1-800-200-2423 or see the full partnership section above.
