The cost of a destination wedding can vary depending on the resort, destination and the number of invited guests.
Non-All-Inclusive 

Resorts / Hotel Resort properties that don’t offer an all-inclusive program are typically more expensive. You need to consider room block contracts that include food & beverage minimum spend agreements. In many cases a minimum spend is required to avoid a penalty. These hotels / resorts usually have a fee for all or most services. This can be the best choice if you are seeking a more customized experience such as a Disney wedding.
All Inclusive Resorts
There is a greater selection of all-inclusive resorts throughout Mexico and the Caribbean. Some of the luxury resorts offer incredible services with a la carte dinning and inclusions such as tennis and golf. Although these are all-inclusive resorts, they do charge for additional services such as wedding ceremonies, special group set ups such as wedding dinners etc.

• Your dedicated wedding specialist will set up a professional consultation meeting to discuss your plans and your wish list.
• Your specialist will then do the research and create a professional proposal for your consideration.
• When you make your final decision and choose your resort / hotel your specialist will contact the property to confirm your wedding date.
• After choosing your complimentary invitation insert, your specialist will have our marketing department create a draft for your approval. When approved they will be professionally printed and couriered to your home address. This should take about 7 business days.
• Our marketing department will also customize a digital booking form that can be sent by email to all invited guests. This digital form will include your wedding details and collect the required information for all invited guests to register. The digital form is unique to your wedding and all information is encrypted and protected as per the Privacy Act.
• Your wedding specialist will collect deposits and book each guest as they register. She will also communicate on a regular basis regarding the number of registered guests and the updated details.
• Your wedding specialist will contact and remind all guests prior to final payment requirements. She will process final payments and provide documents as soon as they become available. Typically, within 2 or 3 weeks prior to departure.
• Your specialist will contact you during the first 2 days of your stay in destination to ensure everything is going according to your plans. Should there be any issues she will immediately contact the resort for resolution.

A local wedding can range in cost from $10,000 and up depending on the number of invited guests, the wedding ceremony, the celebration venue and the food and beverage choices.  

The cost of a Destination Wedding is typically less expensive because your invited guests are paying their own expenses. All Inclusive weddings tend to be more popular because everything is included.  Because of the savings, many wedding couples plan something  special for their guests such as a private pool party or an excursion such as a sunset cruise.
