What made you decide on having a destination wedding? I did not want some complicated and ridiculously expensive wedding that I had to invite all these people to. I wanted something small and intimate and something that wouldn’t just be a 4 hour event. I wanted lasting memories with my friends and family and I wanted my friends and family to get to know each other.  A vacation together was the perfect way to do that. 

What made you decide on the destination/resort/venue? Originally, I had wanted to have the wedding at this resort we had stayed at in Playa Del Carmen recently. We saw lots of wedding while we were there and it just seemed so perfect. However, Audrey described Dreams Tulum and we kept coming back to it in our conversations. I did LOTS of research and by far Dreams had better reviews. Plus, Dreams is in Tulum, which is a much quieter area and cleaner than where we were planning. And I would NEVER EVER change back to that other venue

What was the biggest difficulty in planning your destination wedding? Waiting for people to book the trip. I couldn’t do much planning without the numbers. We sent out invitations in June for the next May. Some people booked like a month before….including my dad. 

What was the highlight of the experience and what was the biggest surprise? The highlight was definitely the hotel itself. It was a beautiful place, delish food and drinks, the staff were so nice, nighttime was super fun, and the beach is so beautiful. There were no surprises…..everything was more than what I expected it to be. I guess I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the spa. Usually don’t go to the spa that much if at all….but I think I was there everyday. It was so relaxing.

How well was the resort and your Onsite Wedding Coordinator to work with? Landy – my wedding coordinator – was fabulous. I didn’t have any concerns regarding decor or anything like that, but I misread a lot in the wedding package I chose and so I definitely misbudgeted. So I got really frustrated and she was always nice and accommodating. 

If your best friend were planning a destination wedding what would your advice be to her? Destination wedding….all the way. Very very easy. I feel like I was NEVER stressed. I highly recommend this hotel to. There is absolutely nothing I would change. My hair and makeup were perfect, the ceremony the reception the photos the video the food everything was amazing. Plan ahead!
