“I chose to use DWT after doing much research and reading reviews of fellow brides who had reported a great experience. Sally Martinez is simply the best! She is communicative, punctual, and she truly gets the job done. Sally took over my contract in June (two months prior to the wedding), and she quickly and efficiently resolved any issues that were previously not dealt with. I truly believe that because of Sally, my experience at the Hard Rock was seamless. Even while at the resort, she was answering emails quickly! We had a large group for a destination wedding, with 90 guests. This was not a challenge for Sally; she communicated and assisted several guests who had issues due to computer literacy, despite the easy navigation of your personalized wedding page! She also helped resolve other problems, such as travel issues due to hurricane season weather, which resulted in flight changes and cancellations. Her patience is unremarkable! All the guests reported positive feedback about Sally and many commented on how helpful she was. Additionally, she walks you step-by-step about the promotions you receive through using DWT and also communicates with my on-site coordination about these perks! We saved up to 4K through DWT! Any bride would be LUCKY to have Sally. I hope my experience helps future brides to partner with DWT! Sally is a blessing.”

“My now-husband and I reached out to Lina a little over two years ago with no experience in destination weddings. She was responsive, attentive, kind, and easy-going throughout the whole process. She worked with over fifty guests and was able to book rooms, respond to emails, and coordinate transportation for them with ease. She always responded in a timely manner. Lina helped us coordinate a visit to the resort before our wedding date as well. I couldn't have planned this wedding without her. She truly guided me every step of the way. She's amazing!”

"We had the MOST amazing time at the Secrets resort in Cap Cana for our wedding in late July 2023. Our specialist was Maggie, and she was just great! Always extremely timely in response time, as well as advocating for us to get perks from the resort. We loved our experience! I will say that I was nervous with what felt like a lot of unknowns from not visiting the resort ahead of time, but all of the thorough information Maggie provided really did help subside those nerves! The resort's staff was so friendly and welcoming that you really felt like it was a second home. The photographer really made us feel comfortable as well!"

Dreams Natura Resort & Spa
Riviera Maya, Mexico
“We couldn't be more thrilled to have gotten married at Dreams Natura this past January. Upon arrival, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. We had about 100 people in our group, and each one was welcomed to the hotel efficiently with a welcome drink and hot towel; it set the tone for what was to come! The resort is beautiful, and the food is excellent. There was enough beach for everyone to have their own space. The resort did a fantastic job separating the adult-only and family-friendly sides without feeling like a stark contrast. This was important to us as we had children at our wedding and some adults looking forward to their childless vacation. The way the hotel was laid out worked perfectly for blending this. We worked with Fernanda to coordinate our wedding. She was absolutely incredible! We filled out a few documents beforehand about the "vibes" we were looking for in our wedding and other important details. A few days before the wedding, we sat with her and finalized all the details, from chairs to plates to flowers to the order of events and where to place party favors. She had a lot of helpful suggestions regarding the timing of events and the flow of the day. During our meeting, she also introduced us to the photography team, who were also excellent! Fernanda walked us through everything, even how she would pick each of us up from our getting-ready areas down to the minute of walking down the aisle. On the wedding day, she ran everything with extreme professionalism, helped calm nerves, and stayed with our group until the night's end to ensure everything was perfect. We never once had to worry about a thing as she was in the background coordinating everything. Fernanda and the entire staff at Dreams were all incredible vendors to work with and could provide a master class in service. Although we already reviewed our travel coordinator, TJ Dana, we want to say thank you again for recommending such a spectacular resort and helping us plan our wedding and getting all our guests down to Mexico!”

"If you are looking for a fun-filled, family-friendly, non-stop dance Caribbean getaway, look no further! Coconut Bay Resort has it all: amazing staff, delicious food, and a gorgeous wedding venue. There are a number of different pools and a hidden beach spot a little down the way. It's only 5 minutes from the airport, and you are greeted with love from the minute you arrive! Sarahi helped us plan our perfect day from home to make everything easy once we arrived. Kaisha is the best wedding coordinator and took great care of us all week while we were on the resort! Our photographer, Kendall, was amazing. The DJ was awesome! And pro tip: get the fire dancers! It's beyond worth it."

Riu Palace Costa Mujeres
Cancun, Mexico
“My husband & I got married on January 28, 2023 at the Riu Palace Costa Mujeres, Mexico. Michelle Haluschak was recommended to us by a friend to help plan our Destination Wedding. From the beginning, she was very thorough in our initial phone consultation & truly understood what we were looking for when it came to our wedding. In no time at all, she had a list of resorts we might like. She helped book all of our guests (40ish) & communicated on my behalf with the resort & wedding coordinator to reserve our package, communicate other details & arrange payment. It felt amazing to not have to stress these details! Fast forward to our trip, the resort itself was immaculate! The food was amazing, drinks were flowing & there was something for everyone. Beyond our wedding day, we cared most about the satisfaction of our guests, so we were absolutely ecstatic to find out our guests LOVED the resort just as much as we did! Now the best part: Our Wedding Day!! It was absolute PERFECTION! Beyond anything I could’ve imagined. Everything from start to finish was a literal dream come true!! To sum it up, I would recommend Michelle and this resort to anyone in search of a stress free wedding planning process because it was a simple, yet beautiful wedding. Thank you for helping make our dreams come true!!”

Cancun, Mexico
“We had such an amazing experience working with Lina Contreras! When we reached out to Destination Weddings and got in touch with Lina to start planning our wedding, we had no idea what we were getting into. We had never traveled to any of these destinations and Lina so patiently and thoroughly explained all of our options for locations. Together, we chose Secrets Playa Mujeres Cancun. I cannot explain enough how amazing and perfect this resort ended up being for us. All of our guests raved about it. The wedding was flawless and we were ecstatic with this resort choice!Working with Lina throughout all of the travel arrangements with our guests was incredible. The fact that she could be so patient and kind dealing with organizing travel with 50 people still amazes me. She was responsive and worked miracles to make this all happen for us. I am so incredibly grateful for all of her hard work! Weddings are the most important and happiest time in anyone's life and I can honestly say I owe the entire experience to Lina. She was the glue to put it all together and I could not have had the most perfect wedding without her!”

“We had the pleasure of working with Marlene Johnson on our all-inclusive wedding plans in Negril, Jamaica. After an introductory meeting to assess what we were looking to accomplish, Marlene was "on it" from day one. She was extremely helpful; being from Jamaica definitely helped us in our decision making about accommodations, etc. Marlene provided a few resorts to review, addressed any concerns we had, worked with those traveling with us and arranged for our smooth process into and out of the Caribbean. Further, she helped guide me on our wedding, suggested what questions to ask of the coordinator/planner, etc. She knew about the properties we considered and that proved helpful! We are grateful for all of the help and would definitely recommend Destination Weddings and Marlene Johnson! Looking forward to working with her again for other trips.”
