Destination Wedding Education & Inspiration

Sustainable luxury resorts in Riviera Maya Mexico are becoming more important than ever—especially for couples planning a destination wedding. We’re spotlighting Lomas Hospitality sustainability efforts and how this resort group is helping protect the environment, support communities, and shape a greener future in the Mexican Caribbean. Lomas Hospitality is known for some of the most iconic luxury resorts in the Riviera Maya, including Palafitos Overwater Bungalows and the adults-only El Dorado Spa Resorts. But beyond the beautiful beaches and high-end experiences, they’re also taking meaningful action toward responsible tourism. At the center of their sustainability commitment is a philosophy called Evolución Responsable, built around three major pillars: Planet, People, and Prosperity. This framework focuses on protecting biodiversity, conserving local ecosystems, promoting equity and human rights, supporting education, and partnering with local communities in responsible ways. Since 2022, Grupo Lomas—the parent company behind Lomas Hospitality—has also been a signatory of the United Nations Global Compact, aligning operations with global principles involving human rights, labor standards, environmental responsibility, and anti-corruption. What we love most is that sustainability isn’t just “behind the scenes.” Guests are encouraged to travel responsibly with clear guiding principles like protecting nature, safeguarding marine life, and reducing their ecological footprint during travel. And real results are already happening. A solar energy initiative in the Mexican Caribbean is now powering nearly 1,900 hotel rooms with clean electricity, reducing carbon emissions by over 1,000 tons per year. For couples planning a destination wedding in Mexico, sustainability matters because it protects the natural beauty you’re traveling for in the first place. When you choose a resort committed to responsible tourism, you’re not just celebrating love—you’re supporting a place that respects local communities and preserves the Caribbean environment for future generations. At Romance Travel Group, we help couples plan destination weddings in Mexico and the Caribbean with confidence. If sustainability is part of your wedding vision, we can help you find the best eco-friendly all-inclusive resorts that align with your values—without sacrificing luxury or guest experience.

Paraiso de la Bonita Royalton Luxury Collection resort review—if you’re dreaming of a boutique, adults-only escape in Mexico, you’re going to want to see this. Paraiso de la Bonita is an adults-only boutique resort in the Riviera Maya and the very first property in the Royalton Luxury Collection under Marriott. With only 100 oceanfront suites, it offers a quieter, more intimate atmosphere compared to the mega-resorts many couples are used to. Every room is a suite—and every suite sits just steps from the ocean—so the entire resort feels close, convenient, and incredibly romantic. This is the kind of place where you can enjoy a peaceful retreat, personalized attention, and true luxury without feeling lost in a massive property. For couples who want an extra layer of exclusivity, Paraiso de la Bonita will also feature 33 Diamond Club suites with enhanced services and elevated perks. The beach here is more intimate in size, but its close proximity to the suites, restaurants, and common areas creates a tropical sanctuary feel—perfect for couples who want laid-back luxury and easy access to everything. What makes this resort especially exciting for destination weddings is its fully customizable approach. Couples can work closely with a dedicated on-site wedding team to create a celebration that matches their exact vision. And even though the resort is boutique, the venue options are impressive, including an upcoming rooftop sky venue that’s sure to become a major “wow factor” for ceremonies and receptions. At Romance Travel Group, we’re always searching for resorts that feel truly special—and the personalized service and attention to detail at Paraiso de la Bonita exceeded our expectations. If you’re planning a destination wedding and want something elevated, intimate, and adults-only, this resort offers a unique alternative to larger all-inclusive properties. It’s ideal for couples who value privacy, calm luxury, and a wedding experience designed around customization. Destination weddings are all we do at Romance Travel Group. We help couples find the perfect resort match based on style, guest experience, budget, and wedding vision—then we manage the travel planning so everything feels seamless from start to finish.

Secrets Tulum resort review for destination weddings is here, and if you love stylish resorts with a strong wedding team you’ll want to see this one. Our Romance Travel Group team was on-site at Secrets Tulum just last week, and this resort delivers an intentional, design-forward experience that feels straight out of a magazine. Secrets Tulum is located about 90 minutes from the Cancun airport, and the travel day is surprisingly smooth. Once you arrive, the resort’s cenote-inspired concept immediately stands out. Each building is designed around free-flow pools, creating a central oasis feel with sand-lined water features, Bali beds, loungers, and tropical greenery woven throughout the property. The resort is built in the jungle, but guests also have access to a private beach club just 15 minutes away on iconic Tulum Beach. The beach club includes food, drinks, music, and a pool—but the real highlight is having that gorgeous stretch of Tulum shoreline as part of your stay. It’s also close enough to town that guests can enjoy the classic Tulum vibe without feeling disconnected. Inside the rooms, the style is modern and moody, with concrete textures, warm wood tones, and boho-chic details that feel elevated and very Instagram-friendly. Dining was another highlight during our stay, with strong variety and consistently great meals. But what impressed us most was the wedding team. Gabriella and Jennifer are an exceptional duo—organized, responsive, and truly experienced at customizing each couple’s wedding vision. If you’re planning a Tulum-inspired destination wedding, their attention to detail makes a major difference. The right resort isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about guest experience, smooth logistics, and having a wedding team you can trust. Secrets Tulum stands out for couples who want a stylish celebration with strong behind-the-scenes support. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We visit resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean firsthand, guide couples through resort selection, and support your guests with booking, transportation, and planning timelines—so your wedding feels effortless from start to finish.

Royalton Negril is the perfect inspiration if you want a destination wedding that feels like a full vacation celebration—romantic, tropical, and stress-free. We’re sharing Alexandria & Cedric’s real destination wedding at Royalton Negril in Jamaica and what their wedding week experience was really like. Alexandria & Cedric chose a destination wedding because they both love to travel and always take a big trip each year so combining their wedding and honeymoon into one unforgettable experience just made sense. They also loved that their friends and family could turn it into a relaxing vacation too. Their wedding date even had personal meaning: both of their birthdays are in August, just one week apart, so they chose a date right in the middle to celebrate everything together. When it came to planning, Alexandria shared that one of her biggest fears was forgetting something important at home, especially since she was a DIY bride bringing decor like charger plates and napkins. She handled it with a packing checklist and a supportive “Bride Tribe” to help keep everything organized. Guests were thrilled with the resort and the all-inclusive experience, and Alexandria said everyone loved the variety and the breathtaking view as soon as they walked into the lobby. Their wedding day included all the classic moments like the first look, cocktail hour, dinner reception, and dancing—but Alexandria said the Caribbean views and ambiance made everything feel even more beautiful than it ever could at home. Her favorite moment was the emotional first look with Cedric. Real couple wedding recaps help you understand what the destination wedding experience is truly like—from travel prep to the wedding-day vibe and guest reactions. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We support couples with custom wedding websites, guest booking tools, and travel logistics—so you can enjoy your wedding week with confidence.

The best time to book flights to Mexico and the Caribbean can make a huge difference in what you pay, especially if you’re planning destination wedding travel. In this video, we’re sharing simple, expert-backed tips to help you find cheaper airfare, avoid overpaying, and get everyone to paradise with less stress. Airfare prices are constantly changing, and as travel demand rises, timing matters more than ever. One of the biggest tips we recommend is booking flights about six months before travel, particularly for peak destination wedding seasons like winter and early spring. That tends to give travelers the best mix of price, availability, and seat selection. While some major airlines release schedules and pricing up to 11 months ahead, smaller airlines often don’t publish fares until around the six-month window. That’s important because once more airlines enter the market, competition increases—and prices can drop. Another huge way to save money is to fly mid-week. Tuesday and Wednesday departures are often significantly cheaper than weekend flights, and in some cases, the airfare savings are so big that adding an extra night at the resort costs less overall. (And honestly… who wouldn’t want one more beach day?) It’s also smart to check smaller regional airports. Sometimes a quick connection through a bigger hub can unlock surprisingly competitive fares—especially for guests who don’t live near major cities. Finally, don’t wait until the last minute to start watching prices. Set up flight alerts early so you can track fluctuations, compare routes, and feel confident when it’s time to book. Affordable airfare makes it easier for guests to attend and helps couples feel less stress about asking friends and family to travel. When flight planning is done right, your wedding week starts smoother for everyone. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We help couples and guests navigate travel timelines, booking strategies, airport transportation, and real-world planning tips—so everyone arrives relaxed and ready to celebrate.

Dreams Natura Resort & Spa is the perfect inspiration if you want a destination wedding that feels like a full vacation with your favorite people. We’re sharing Megan & Justin’s real destination wedding at Dreams Natura in Mexico and what their full wedding week experience was really like. Megan & Justin chose a destination wedding after realizing the cost of traditional wedding venues at home was shocking, and they wanted to spend their money on an experience they truly loved. They always thought getting married near the ocean would be amazing, and once they learned that resort weddings include so much support built-in, they were sold. They chose Dreams Natura because of its unique infinity pool glass platform ceremony location, which they hadn’t seen at other resorts. They also loved that the resort is family-friendly, had seven restaurant options, stayed within their budget, and is only about 15 minutes from the airport, making travel easier for guests. Guest booking was smooth and stress-free—Megan said their guests didn’t struggle at all, and any questions went straight to their RTG travel agent. They even created a Facebook group to keep guests updated on deadlines and travel info. Like many couples, they worried about not seeing the resort in advance, packing wedding décor, and whether the coordinator understood everything especially with some communication barriers early on. What helped the most? Joining the Dreams Natura Weddings Facebook group, seeing real wedding photos, and trusting the process. Their biggest destination wedding takeaway: it felt like a weeklong wedding party, and they loved that friends and family didn’t have to set up anything, they just showed up and had fun. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We support couples with guest booking tools, group travel coordination, airport transfers, and organization from start to finish—so you can enjoy your wedding week with confidence.

Generations Riviera Maya is the perfect inspiration if you want a destination wedding that feels like a true vacation with your favorite people. We’re sharing Kelly & Brian’s real destination wedding at Generations Riviera Maya in Mexico and what their full wedding week experience was really like. Kelly & Brian chose Romance Travel Group because after speaking with multiple travel agents, our team stood out as the most responsive, professional, and organized. They loved that we were knowledgeable about resort options while staying aligned with their wish list and budget. When it came to selecting their resort, they wanted a high-end experience that was still affordable for guests, close to the airport, and family-friendly. Generations checked every box and they also loved that there are two adults-only sister resorts next door that they could access whenever they wanted a break from the family side. They said the resort offered “countless beautiful wedding venue options,” which made the decision even easier. Like many couples, their biggest fear was planning a wedding somewhere they had never been. They worried the resort wouldn’t live up to the photos, and they felt nervous booking vendors through email/Facebook and sending deposits, but everything turned out perfectly. They shared that the wedding coordinator communication started slow, but around 6 months out, things became much smoother and details were confirmed more quickly. Their guests received invitations about a year in advance with their custom Romance Travel Group wedding website, and they said booking was easy for guests—with fast support whenever questions came up. Their wedding included a symbolic ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception with one unforgettable destination-only detail: a donkey carrying cold cervezas during cocktail hour! Their favorite part was watching guests enjoy multiple days together, since many family members don’t travel often. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We support couples with custom wedding websites, guest booking tools, travel logistics, and step-by-step guidance—so you can enjoy your wedding week with confidence.

Hyatt Ziva Cancun is the perfect inspiration if you want a destination wedding that feels like more than a single day. We’re sharing Jennifer & Cesar’s real destination wedding at Hyatt Ziva Cancun in Mexico and what their full wedding week experience was really like. Jennifer & Cesar chose Romance Travel Group because of our great reviews and resort connections in Mexico, and after talking with Shelli they felt relieved knowing we could manage their room block and take a major task off their plate. When it came to choosing the resort, they knew they wanted a beach ceremony, so finding a resort with a gorgeous beach was a top priority. They also wanted friendly staff, fun for all ages, and an adults-only section so they could honeymoon at the same resort. After reading reviews, watching YouTube videos, and checking destination wedding Facebook groups, they decided Hyatt Ziva Cancun was the perfect match. Their guests were fully on board with no objections at all, and even more guests booked than expected because everyone saw it as an exciting vacation opportunity. Planning with the resort wedding coordinator went smoothly. They received a simple master planner to organize the details, and as the wedding got closer, the coordinator started a WhatsApp chat for quick last-minute questions. Jennifer said their guest booking website through Romance Travel Group was super easy to use, payments were simple, and transportation being included was a huge bonus. They had a beach ceremony and cocktail hour (and Jennifer said the beach was unbelievably beautiful), but due to rain, their reception moved indoors to the ballroom which still turned out great. Their biggest advice for other couples: ask to see the indoor backup venue ahead of time, so if weather changes plans, you feel prepared and confident. Real couple wedding recaps help you understand guest expectations, resort planning realities, and what makes a destination wedding weekend feel relaxed and unforgettable. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We support couples with custom wedding websites, guest booking tools, room blocks, and travel logistics—so you can enjoy your wedding week with confidence.

When to send save the dates for a destination wedding is one of the most important planning steps, and one of the easiest to get wrong. We’re breaking down the ideal destination wedding invitation timeline so your guests have plenty of time to plan, book, and get excited. If you’ve planned or attended a traditional wedding, you’ve probably heard the “normal” rules: save-the-dates go out several months ahead, and formal invitations go out about eight weeks before the big day. But destination weddings don’t follow that same timeline—because travel requires more time, budgeting, and coordination. At Romance Travel Group, we recommend sending your save-the-dates or evites 14 to 16 months before your wedding. That might sound early, but it’s the perfect window. It gives your guests time to request time off work, plan childcare if needed, and spread out travel costs with a payment schedule. It also helps guests lock in flights before prices climb. When it comes to the best way to invite guests, we suggest keeping it simple and going digital. An evite is fast, easy, and stress-free—and it can link directly to your custom wedding website so guests have everything they need in one place. Even better? Romance Travel Group provides couples with a free evite system, guest booking platform, and personalized wedding website to make guest communication effortless. One of our biggest tips: skip traditional RSVP cards. Guests often think they’re coming, but in reality, only about half of invited guests attend. Your real guest list forms naturally once deposits are made and rooms are booked through your Romance Travel Group link. And by the time you’re eight weeks out, destination wedding guests already have their travel booked—so formal invites become optional, not necessary. This timeline helps you avoid last-minute stress, improves guest attendance, and makes planning easier for everyone. Early communication creates clarity, excitement, and a smoother guest experience from start to finish. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We help couples organize guests, manage bookings, and keep everyone on track—so you can focus on celebrating instead of chasing down travel details.

How destination wedding planning works at a resort is one of the most common questions engaged couples ask us at Romance Travel Group. We’re walking you through the destination wedding planning timeline at an all-inclusive resort—so you know exactly what to expect, and when. Once your destination wedding date is confirmed, the process officially begins. At Romance Travel Group, our first step is introducing you to the resort’s wedding coordinator so you have the right point of contact for everything related to your ceremony and wedding events. While you work with the coordinator on your wedding vision, our team stays fully focused on your guest experience. That includes booking rooms, managing your group room block, organizing airport transportation, setting up payment schedules, and answering guest questions along the way—so you don’t have to. Here’s an important detail that surprises many couples: most resorts don’t begin the detailed wedding planning process until about 3 to 6 months before the wedding date. When that planning window opens, you’ll share your inspiration—Pinterest boards, color palettes, décor ideas, and priorities—and your wedding coordinator will build an initial quote. From there, it becomes collaborative. You’ll fine-tune the details together until everything feels just right. About 30 days before the wedding, your planning file is often transferred to the resort’s on-site wedding team (especially when the original coordinator isn’t physically located at the resort). That team reviews your full plan and prepares for execution. Once you arrive, you’ll meet with the wedding team in person, tour venues, confirm your timeline, and make any last-minute updates. From that moment forward, the on-site team is there to handle logistics, coordinate vendors, and make sure your wedding day runs smoothly. Understanding this timeline helps you feel calm and confident—because when you know what happens when, you can stop stressing and enjoy the experience you’re planning. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We guide couples from day one, manage guest travel details from start to finish, and help make the entire wedding week feel organized, smooth, and stress-free.

We’re sharing Cheryl & Rick’s real destination wedding at Breathless Riviera Cancun in Mexico and what their full wedding week experience was really like. Cheryl & Rick chose a destination wedding because they wanted something exciting and different from a traditional wedding at home, something that felt like a true getaway for their guests and not just a few hours of celebration. They loved the idea of bringing everyone together in paradise for multiple days of memories, relaxation, and quality time. When it came to choosing their resort, Breathless Riviera Cancun was the perfect match for the kind of energy they wanted. It’s a modern, adults-only all-inclusive that’s known for being lively and social, which made it ideal for couples who want their wedding to feel upbeat, carefree, and full of personality.

Real couple wedding recaps help you understand what planning really feels like, what guests remember most, and what makes a destination wedding week so fun, stress-free, and memorable.

Destination wedding guest guilt is real and if you’re feeling it, you’re not alone. In this video, we’re talking through why so many couples worry about asking guests to travel, and how to plan a destination wedding that feels exciting, respectful, and guest-friendly. If you’ve ever wondered, “Is it selfish to have a destination wedding?” or “Am I asking too much of the people I love?”—take a deep breath. Those feelings are incredibly common, and they usually come from a good place. It means you care about your guests and you want them to feel included, supported, and comfortable. The good news is that a destination wedding isn’t just a wedding for your guests, it’s also a vacation. Instead of driving across town for a few hours and heading home, your friends and family get to relax, unwind, and create memories with you in a beautiful location. For many guests, it becomes one of the most meaningful trips they take all year. Time off work is another big concern, but destination weddings can actually be more flexible than traditional weddings. Some guests may choose to stay for a full week, while others can attend with just a long weekend and still be part of the celebration. And if you’re worried about guests who have kids, you have options. Many family-friendly destination wedding resorts offer kids’ clubs, childcare support, and activities that make it easier for parents to travel—and easier for everyone to attend. Finally, this is where having an expert matters. A destination wedding specialist can help you choose the right location, the right resort, and the right travel plan so your wedding feels smooth for you and your guests. Guest guilt can cause couples to second-guess a wedding they truly want. But when you plan with intention and give guests time and support, a destination wedding becomes something people look forward to—not something they feel burdened by. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We guide couples through resort selection, guest travel planning, and the details that make the guest experience easier—so you can plan confidently and celebrate without the stress.

El Dorado Royale is the perfect inspiration if you want a destination wedding that feels like a full-week celebration—fun, personal, and truly unforgettable. We’re sharing Charlotte & Brittany’s real destination wedding at El Dorado Royale in Riviera Maya, Mexico and what their wedding week experience was really like. Charlotte & Brittany chose a destination wedding because they both love to travel, and a traditional wedding in the U.S. just wasn’t the vibe they wanted. When it came to choosing their resort, they picked El Dorado Royale because it had already hosted LGBTQ weddings before, and that made them feel confident and comfortable. They also loved that the property offers multiple resort “sections” (including adults-only and a more romantic casita-style vibe), plus plenty of venue options like beach, indoor, and skydeck. They were realistic about guest costs and didn’t pressure anyone to attend, but for the people they really wanted there, they built assistance into their budget. Their biggest worries were things like traveling internationally, customs, and making guests feel safe. They prepared early, used destination wedding Facebook groups for advice, and even did a day trip to the resort ahead of time so they could share a helpful PDF with guests. Their wedding week was packed with unique moments, including a beach ceremony and a reception under a tiki-style covering by a private pool, complete with glow sticks, bubble guns, a churro bar (because they don’t like cake!), and even a donkey on the beach for photos. One of their favorite memories was the entire wedding party jumping into the pool at the end of the night and getting served drinks right at the swim-up bar. Real couple wedding recaps help you understand planning timelines, guest experience, and what makes a destination wedding feel relaxed, exciting, and completely unforgettable. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We support couples with guest travel coordination, booking tools, and seamless logistics—so you can actually enjoy your wedding week with confidence.

The best month for a destination wedding in Mexico or the Caribbean depends on more than just sunshine. Choosing your wedding month is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make early in planning—and it shapes your entire destination wedding experience. Different times of year bring different resort energy levels, pricing trends, and travel patterns, and understanding those seasonal shifts helps you plan smarter and feel more confident about your date. Here’s how we break it down: Peak Season typically runs from mid-January through Easter. This is one of the most popular times for destination weddings thanks to sunny weather and lively resort atmospheres. Keep in mind that spring break and holiday travel can make resorts busier, and availability may disappear faster than expected. Mid-Season spans from Easter through August, plus a short stretch in early January. These months often offer a balanced experience—great weather, steady resort vibes, and solid options for both couples and guests. Low Season runs from September through early November, and again in early December. While these months were once quieter, they’ve grown increasingly popular—especially October, November, and early December—because couples love the value, the extra space at resorts, and the more relaxed pace. At Romance Travel Group, we often recommend April, May, October, November, and early December as ideal destination wedding months for great weather and strong resort options. And no matter what month you choose, don’t forget this timeline tip: send your Save-The-Date 12 to 16 months before your wedding so guests have time to plan, book, and get excited. Your wedding month impacts everything—guest turnout, budget, resort selection, and overall vibe. Choosing the right season makes planning easier and sets you up for an unforgettable celebration. At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings are all we do. We help couples find the perfect resort, guide you through the best season for your vision, and support your guests with booking, timelines, and travel logistics.
