Kind Words from our Destination Wedding Clients!

Hi Bill & Maria,

Tyler and I want to thank you both so much for all of your hard work over the past almost 1.5 years that went into planning our wedding. We appreciate all of the extra time and effort that you put toward helping us book (and rebook lol) our guests.

Working with you Maria was more like having a travel agent and wedding planner rolled all into one. Thank you for always taking the time to answer any question or help solve any issues.

Your generous gift of the second set of wedding invitations and our engagement photo session was above and beyond anything that we expected and we appreciated them immensely.

Our wedding was absolutely perfect and we couldn’t have pulled it all together without you.

That being said, I thought that I would give you a quick review of the resort for any future weddings or bookings. We have absolutely no complaints about the resort. Every member of the staff was amazing, from the front desk to the entertainment staff. My nephew and niece were on a first name basis with Marco, Charly (Carlos), Marcelo, etc and I cannot say enough good things about how wonderful they were with all of the kids (and adults) in our group.

Adriana and Samual were very easy to work with and the wedding day was amazing with no issues. The flowers, food, decor, and location of the wedding were perfect. Not only were we gifted with the free cocktail hour for the date mix up but we were given the 8 piece Mariachi band for the price of the 3 pieces that we originally booked. (we even had whales jumping in the ocean in front of the resort right after the ceremony.) We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding. The resort photographer Marion also did an amazing job with our photos, we are extremely happy with how they turned out.

The resort itself was beautiful, and although we had a few cool and cloudy days the weather was great for the most part too. I am very picky and was very worried about the guests enjoying the resort and wedding (in case you didn’t notice lol) and I don’t have one single complaint. We were upgraded to an ocean front room as well, which was perfect and our Westjet plus seating upgrade was a great treat :)

Thank you both again, for everything! Hopefully, we will get to work with you again for future travel bookings and will gladly recommend your services to any friends or family :)

Carly & Tyler

Hi! It was amazing! The weather could have been better. It rained 3 evenings, actually storming on Thursday! But it was all very short-lived. It drizzled a little the day of our wedding, just enough to give a rainbow :)

It was cloudy the day of the wedding as well, but that’s better for photos and oh my gosh did we ever get some nice photos. The photographer was amazing! I would definitely recommend him to others. Not only did he get amazing photos, but he was very personable as well. I really wanted a sunset and was worried about the clouds. But, hoooooly did we get a sunset. I’ll attach some pics. These aren’t the pictures from the photographer though.

The dinner was delicious! Oh my gosh. I wish I could have eaten more! When Cody and I were done with pictures my first priority was to try some of the appetizers at the cocktail hour. My dad has a very nice photo of us and my napkin of appetizers! Lol.

Adriana and Sam were incredibly helpful. Of course, a bride is always kind of nervous about how the ceremony and day will progress, but I did not have to! They had it covered.

The resort itself was very nice. Very isolated though. There were no other resorts along the beach. It looked like maybe abandoned or under construction. Also, I think because we were outside of the bay, it was very windy and the waves were huge! There was only one day we had a green flag to swim in the ocean. Also, the beach was pretty rocky.

All of the a la cartes and the buffet were so good. We almost didn’t even need the a la cartes because of the variety of food at the buffet! The staff was all very nice.

I’ve already had someone ask me about how I went about planning my destination wedding and gave them your contact info. Hope that’s Okay!!

Thank you both so much for everything! You’ve been incredibly helpful and patient!

Bethany & Cody

Hi Maria,

The wedding was fabulous. It was the only day down there that it didn’t rain. It was perfect. Everyone enjoyed the resort. The water park was a hit! Food was good, lots of activities. Couldn’t have asked for more. Thanks so much for all your help!

Kelsey & Chase

Hi Bill and Maria,

Thanks so much! The wedding was great, Handan pulled it all together and was able to reschedule. The flowers needed sprucing up which made for an additional fee but that’s understandable given the change in date.

The venue, food, and officiant were exactly as hoped, the violinist played the requested song(s), he wasn’t there very long but really added to the wedding and played beautifully.

Transport was arranged with a pretty fancy speedboat which guests really enjoyed.

We’re looking forward to pictures, the photographer was friendly and had some great ideas on poses, he seemed to have the vision and be skilled at his job.

There are definitely some things that didn’t go so well but overall the end result and day itself was wonderful and as we had hoped. Some of it you already know about, communication didn’t flow as easily, the contract wasn’t finalized and Montenegro weddings changed its mind on the agreed upon way to settle the payments.

I would actually recommend them to future couples (as long as they’re ok with someone more laid back and informal) – it was clear during the day that Handan had reviewed the information, pictures I had sent and was following our suggestions.

Even the food had some of the details we had talked about, staff did a great job explaining what everything was, was friendly and so forth, it was delicious and personable – no cruise dinner could have competed with the quality, uniqueness, and freshness of the food that was served.

It is a stunning location plus we had a sunny summery day, great lighting for pictures, beautiful scenery – we are very happy with it ending up being Kotor.

Royal Caribbean Cruise:

Some staff members on the ship were absolutely great (Elaine!) but I do hope that this trip encourages improvement in some other areas including booking services and supporting onshore weddings. We had a difficult time purchasing additional services that would add to the wedding day.

The cake turned out delicious (big as expected but nicely decorated and tasty)

We had a beautiful wedding and saw some really neat places along the way, the cruise was good once it got started – split instead of Mykonos and Corfu was unfortunate but it was an enjoyable stop.

This one probably goes down in the books as least predictable wedding lol!

Thanks for your work with us, Maria and Bill! :)) it all fell into place, thank you for your piece in that :)

Sabine & Sameer

Hi Maria,

Well I don’t know what to say other then we had the best week ever! Everything was perfect, the wedding, the beach, the pools, the weather was beautiful… everyone had an amazing time now we’re all having the blues back in Canada haha!

It was an unbelievable time, everyone had an awesome week!! I thanked you guys in our speech even though you weren’t there but definitely needed to be mentioned as you have helped me so much, you were basically our travel agents & wedding coordinator!! Thank you for everything again!

My cousin Troy said that his girlfriend’s parents thought you were so helpful in getting Brooklyn booked for our trip that they booked a different trip through you as well or are thinking about it? That’s great! We are already missing Jamaica, the people, the resort, beach, pool, entertainment, food & fancy drinks so much! It’ll be hard the next trip we go on not having all the same 95 people with us!

The wedding was soooo perfect, the tent on the beach was beautiful, the roof was somewhat see through so people on the balcony at the bar/entertainment area kept watching our dance party down below and cheering it was so fun. The DJ played for close to an extra hour longer then we was paid for lol the bouquets were so nice and they even added in some coral flowers to match the bridesmaids dresses.. everyone said they loved the meal and we ended up getting a 3 tier wedding cake that we didn’t expect (wasn’t supposed to be included in the package) but it was delicious!! I could go on and on but i need to get to bed!

Thank you,

Jamie & Shane

Hi Maria and Bill,

I apologize that I am just now getting back to you. Things have been beyond hectic since we’ve got back from Mexico. Everything went perfect!!! I honestly couldn’t have asked for anything different. Carmen was beyond amazing the day of the wedding. Every little detail was in place the day of and she made sure that we were happy the entire time.

The weather was amazing and I can honestly say we had the best day down there of our wedding. It wasn’t too hot, no clouds or haze, wasn’t windy at all. I’ll attach some pictures so you can see the day we had. I would recommend that if anyone goes down for their wedding that they do it at the beginning of their trip so they aren’t doing meetings or getting things organized while everyone is there. We were able to spend time and relax with all the guests for the remainder of the week.

If anyone has any questions about Dreams I would be more than happy to answer any that you may receive. Everyone had a ball and time of their life and I wish it didn’t fly by as fast as it did.

Chrissy & James

Hey Maria!

The wedding was wonderful! Denys was really great and made the day so stress free we have zero complaints about her or the day! She also says “hi!”. They set up everything the way we wanted, the only unfortunate thing was it was so windy on the beach that our centerpieces couldn’t be lit :( oh well haha if that’s our biggest issue during the day I think we’re golden. The dance party on the beach was fantastic. The DJ was super good, definitely knew how to mix in the old with the new to get everyone dancing. The dance floor was never empty so it was money well spent!

Also if anyone asks you for a photographer, you should definitely give them BLF as a name. Bond was fabulous, he fit in with our group so well! He was part of the family the whole week, took my cousin fishing with him, went on the catamaran excursion all while maintaining his professionalism and capturing the moments. We can’t say enough great things about him!

The resort was good everyone had a great time which is impressive for so many people, ages and personalities. The staff in general were all very friendly and we didn’t have any issues with language, beaches were beautiful, they had these food carts at the pool (one with hot dogs/burgers, the other with tacos…OMG sooooo good) I actually delayed my makeup start on the wedding day to get me some tacos!! Lol. It was actually a running joke if people were looking for me, they could count on me getting tacos at some point haha.

We can’t thank you guys enough for all your help! I don’t know how we would’ve pulled it all off without your help. People kept asking how we came about our decisions etc and I just said “Maria was amazing she kept me sane!” Lol. Well send you pictures once we get them :)

Thank you times a million!!!

Justine & Gerald

Hi Bill and Maria,

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you, it feels like we got home and hit the ground running. I would like to thank you guys for everything, you were amazing. The wedding itself was a great day with beautiful weather.

The entertainment was amazing, the food was fantastic and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. Minus a few little bumps in the road, our guests seemed to have enjoyed themselves.

Again thank you for all the hard work you guys did, the wedding was truly amazing and Jason and I couldn’t be happier to be starting this new chapter in our lives.

Shanna and Jason

Hi Maria and Bill,

Thank you…we had a wonderful time. The RIU was above our expectations. We don’t have one complaint. The wedding was awesome as you can see by the pictures. We would both like to thank you for all your help and advice.

We will highly recommend you guys…

Sheila & Tom

Hi Maria and Bill,

Just wanted to say thank you so much for helping to organize not only our dream wedding but a dream vacation for us and our guests.

Jewel Runaway bay was an amazing resort that exceeded our expectations. The food was amazing, the grounds were beautiful and immaculate but above all, the staff were incredible! We couldn’t have imagined a better place to get married!

Thank you so much for making everything run smoothly, from helping us pick our resort to you communicating with the resort to help plan the wedding. Thank you for always answering our (many) questions so promptly. You made our lives much easier and we are so grateful!

Marc and Kerri
Thanks again for everything, Maria!

Hi Maria and Bill,

We would like to thank you for everything….. our dream wedding was really a dream!

The Palladium was beautiful, the food and weather were amazing and our wedding was perfect! We could not have asked for a more perfect setting. Absolutely nothing went wrong at all. All the family members and friends could not believe how beautiful and fun the wedding was as well as our holiday. Our children all had a blast!

Les and I were moved to the Mayan Suite right in front of the ocean and right beside the wedding ceremony and beach bash! Could not have asked for a better room – it was amazing. All the staff treated us well and were so kind and friendly.

We loved Nidia. She was so kind and we could feel that she cared for our wedding. Nidia was amazing!! Loved her!

We cannot thank you enough for all your help……thank you so much for making our holiday and wedding everything we dreamed of?

Angie and Les

Hi Maria & Bill,

Andrew and I got home on Sunday night well rested and relaxed after a great vacation. The wedding was amazing and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Elsa and the hotel staff were great. I’m still excited about how much fun we had.

The venues were beautiful and the flower arrangements were the biggest arrangements I’ve literally ever seen. The meal was exactly as we wanted and Elsa was so helpful making the adjustments we wanted to the menu.

Thank you so much for all your help getting us organized and helping us plan our wedding and trip! I have to say I really enjoyed planning the wedding and having you help with the communication between us and the hotel made it very stress-free for me – although the I anticipate that is a lot of work for you.

I can’t say enough good things about the whole experience. I would definitely recommend a wedding at the Grand Palladium and your services to anyone who asks me!

We still haven’t gotten our photos back from the photographer yet but I attached a fun little picture my friend got for you guys to see!

Thanks,
Katelyn & Andrew

Hi Maria!

We had an amazing time, the resort was awesome and everyone enjoyed their stay. I think Moon Palace ruined the All Inclusive experience for the first timers including myself, it’ll be hard to top this resort, lol.

The wedding services at Moon Palace were very accommodating, and we were very happy with the coordinators. It actually started pouring rain during the reception, but the staff were quick to move the party to the gazebo without any disturbance or complications.

I would definitely recommend Moon Palace to any couple looking for a destination wedding location, especially if children are coming.

Maridel and Randy

Hi Maria and Bill!

Las Vegas Wedding at: Bali Hai Golf Club, Cili Restaurant

The wedding was UNBELIEVABLE! All of our guests said they had never seen such a beautiful wedding venue, and the wedding ran so smoothly. We didn’t have to do a thing, besides eat, drink and smile for pictures. If you have any clients looking for a Vegas wedding in the future, I would 1000% recommend this venue. It is worth every penny.

Our photographers were from M Place Productions, both were amazing. Just letting you know in case you have clients asking about that in the future as well.

Our Sandals Ochi Beach Honeymoon was also unbelievable! Like i said to you over an email, I could have cried when we first showed up. The other resorts we’ve stayed at didn’t even compare. Spending 10 days was perfect. The food was phenomenal and so was the service. We are definitely hooked on Sandals resorts now. We met a few other couples that we are hoping to go to a different Sandals resort with next year. I’ll send some pictures once I get everything downloaded onto my computer :)

We also can’t thank you guys enough, you were so helpful throughout the whole process, even when we were in Jamaica and I couldn’t access our return flight info.

Thanks!

Hi Bill and Maria!

We had the best week in Puerto Vallarta!!! The Grand Marival was absolutely perfect for a group. It was so easy to find one another, we were constantly bumping into family and friends. It was just the perfect size. We had a beautiful suite with some nice perks on our wedding day which we really appreciated. The food was good, the beach was beautiful and the resort was extremely kid friendly which the families with kids really enjoyed. It was the perfect choice for our group!

The wedding day was nothing short of magical. Everybody (including ourselves) kept telling us they felt like they were in a movie. It was truly incredible. Every detail was looked after and it all came together perfectly.

We couldn’t have asked for a better day. The food was amazing, our ceremony was perfect and the scenery was out of this world. We don’t have professional photos back yet of course, but we have a few nice ones from family and friends which I have attached. We are so happy that we chose a destination wedding, especially at Las Caletas. (Although our unmarried guests said we ruined it for everyone, as no wedding will ever be as nice as ours! Whoops!!)

Thank you so much for all your help in the planning process, we couldn’t have done it without you! (And it was so much less stressful thanks to you!!)

Hi Maria & Bill,

It took most of yesterday, but we’re all feeling more rested today and are tackling the mountains of laundry!

Our trip was amazing! We had such a blast and have had positive feedback from absolutely everyone that came with us. The wedding was absolutely gorgeous from start to finish, other than all of us sweaty people lol, and it was without a doubt one of the best days of our lives!!

Terry and I are so thankful we had you both to help us plan this trip and our special day, we could not have asked for better travel agents. Anyone who has asked we have been telling them how amazing you both are and many of our guests were telling us how great their experience in having any questions answered was.

I think my only complaint was that the majority of the rooms were not ready when we arrived, which was not a huge deal but we felt that our room at least should have been ready to go as I ended up dragging my dress around for 2 hours. Other than that everything was great!

We paid a little extra to have all of the photographer’s pictures, we would love to share them with you both sometime.

Thank you again for everything!!

Wow, being home sure is bitter sweet! My skin is sure missing the warm weather at the moment!!

The wedding was AMAZING. Honestly, coming from a perfectionist, it was perfect. I had prepared myself that some things may not happen or they may forget but Lorena went above and beyond with little details. Everything was on time and on schedule.

Riley went golfing the morning of the wedding (which was a good thing – kept him occupied). Us girls got our hair and make-up done at the Spa and it was great. They really know what their doing and take the time to make sure you like it. Our Ceremony was at the Gazebo and walking down the aisle to cheers and clapping was as exhilarating as I thought it would be! We had our cocktail hour and Reception on the pool deck and the food was fabulous! They could have had a few more staff but how would they know we would drink so much!?

The Now Amber itself is an amazing property. I haven’t been to PV before but you can easily tell it is the nicest there. The staff are super knowledgable and the food was amazing! I would highly recommended the property for just travel or weddings.

Our overall experience was great! We definitely made the right choice about going away and we’re so happy with everything!

Thank you again for all of your help through the process! :)

We were very happy with the entire destination wedding process, Bill and Maria walked us through what needed to be done, and they took care of all the details of booking the vacation package. We had a total of 25 people in our group, and our guests all had positive things to say about booking their trip, as it was easy and straightforward.

We went with an Air Canada Vacations package, and the resort we chose was Beach Palace in Cancun, Mexico. We were amazed at how smoothly the wedding went, everything the resort promised came true! This resort had a lovely on-site wedding planner who met with us to make sure all the details were finalized, and then attended the wedding itself to ensure everything went as planned.

We had our ceremony on the beach, which had breathtaking views. We then had a cocktail hour and private wedding dinner on the resort’s rooftop terrace, which included a lit-up pool, and again amazing views of the ocean below. The resort even designed a special wedding cocktail for our group to try! All of our guests had a lovely time at the resort and at the wedding.

Bill and Maria really helped us navigate what could have been a complicated and challenging process, and really made it simple and worry-free. Bill and Maria did all the work of booking everyone’s flights and vacation packages, and our guests could go to them with any questions that came up about the flights and resort. It was a wonderful trip and wedding, and we’d recommend Bill and Maria to anyone wanting the benefits of a destination wedding without any hassle!

Hi Maria,

The wedding was excellent and the resort was amazing! Our wedding coordinator was great and everything went as planned. We would definitely go back this resort. We didn’t hear any complaints from our guest. Sounded like everyone had a great time. We would definitely recommend this resort to people for their wedding. Thanks to you and bill for all your hard work and making the planning so easy. It was great!

After Justin proposed we knew right away that we wanted to have a destination wedding. We had a few general ideas as to where we wanted our wedding and what type of budget we would like to maintain, but we knew we needed help. We contacted a few companies that specialized in destination weddings to obtain quotes, all which had their own opinions about our wedding and prices far outside our desired budget. We felt very discouraged at this time, worried that our dream destination wedding was outside the realm of possibility. Luckily, it was at this time we found Bill and Maria’s travel agency.

Bill and Maria welcomed us into their own home and took the time to sit down with us and listen to what we wanted for our wedding. With their experience, they were able to recommend several destinations that offered what we were looking for and within our budget! We finally decided on the Grand Palladium Kantenah, and this was only the beginning of their helpfulness in our wedding planning process.

Maria was always readily available, friendly and prompt with her responses throughout the months of planning to the wedding. Often going above and beyond what was expected to help me. For example, Bill and Maria had the opportunity to visit the same resort before our wedding and they were more than willing to take photographs of the different wedding locations the resort offered so I would have a better idea. One thing I really liked about having Bill and Maria was how quickly my questions were answered. I had spoken to other brides dealing directly with the wedding coordinators at the resort and sometimes they would have to wait weeks for responses, Maria usually had a response for me the same day and if not she gave me a timeframe as to when I could expect and answer. They also recommended our amazing photographer Mark Willis, which I cannot thank them enough for!

Having Bill and Maria available was an indispensable resource. Being a bride, I had enough on my mind, it was wonderful to have Bill and Maria to not only help me in my planning but to also be readily available to assist and answer the questions of our guests. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone planning a destination wedding!

We are also very happy with the services provided by Air Transat, they made us feel like special guests right from the start of our trip. This welcoming feeling continued at the Grand Palladium Kantenah. We absolutely loved everything about the resort; the staff was friendly, the resort was clean, the food was great and the beaches were beautiful! The resort was so large with so many different things to do, it really had something for everyone. Our wedding had a very diverse group of guests and we received many compliments for choosing this resort!

The wedding day went perfectly. The wedding coordinators really handle everything for you, all you have to do is show up and enjoy your big day because their team will take care of all the details for you! We thought our beach ceremony was very well done, the vows we made were beautiful. Our private reception at the La Laguna restaurant was wonderful; it was really decorated well and the dinner was delicious! We partied the rest of the night away at our private beach bash, it really was a blast and all our guests had a memorable night! We are so happy with the way everything turned out and will cherish the memories forever!

Right from the start, Bill and Maria were patient with me as I was a very indecisive bride to be. I wanted everything to be perfect with our group planning right down to the wedding day, and let me tell you that they listened to what we were looking for and offered many suggestions. If they had no answer they didn’t stop till they found one.

We decided upon The Grand Palladium Resort and Spa in the Mayan Riviera and it exceeded any expectations we had. The staff at the resort was very friendly and extremely accommodating to our needs. Throughout the many emails back and forth over the year, we got to the day where we were hoping on the plane and on our way to Mexico.

When the wedding day came they reassured us that if we needed anything, they were there to help. All the last minute decisions were a breeze and the Wedding Planner Grace was fantastic. Maria became like a friend to us, she is definitely not your “typical” travel agent.

I would recommend Bill and Maria at The Traveling Agent to my friends and family as well as give them a call after we have this baby to start planning our next vacation.

Can’t remember if i sent you any photos from the wedding last year, it was the perfect resort for us and all of our guests THE GRAND PALLADIUM VALLARTA RESORT & SPA…. thanks again for making it all happen…

Everything went great, two weeks was not enough time. We’d go back in a second!

First of all about Las Caletas. This was booked and coordinated through Vallarta Adventures. It was booked over a year ago and at first the communication was slow but once we had our deposit down, we felt more secure. The real communication with them started closer to the wedding date back in November.

Once we got to Mexico, the wedding planner met us at the hotel and went though all the details. The day of they were amazing! The girls went over first thing in the morning and spend all day there in a little bridal suite. They do an excellent job of making sure the bride is relaxed and does not have to worry about anything. On our wedding day, the tide was high and wiped out the beach our wedding was supposed to be on. They dealt with this and found another spot and looked after everything we needed all day. The lunch they brought us was amazing.

The wedding itself was more amazing than I could have ever imagined. The groom and rest of the guests came over just before the ceremony. The ceremony was at sunset and it gets dark immediately after. Once it’s dark, the place is breathtaking. It is mainly lit by candlelight. The dinner is under a covered shelter overlooking the beach. The food was amazing! It was a buffet and many people had seconds and even thirds. I had heard it was good but I did not expect it to be that good.

The drinks were good and not weak unlike the ones at the hotel. The reception was held on the beach; a raised platform was used as the dance floor and they set up chairs and a bonfire beside it. It was absolutely beautiful. I would recommend it to anyone, especially those looking for a private location. Our guests cannot stop talking about how beautiful the location was.

Now for the hotel. We have stayed at two other Decameron’s before and we really like them. We knew more or less what kind of ambiance and service to expect. Some of our guests who have traveled to nicer resorts knew the difference but the first timers in the group (there were a lot) liked it. The food was fine, there were always lots of options and something for everyone.

Mexican night in particular was really good at the buffets. There were 4 a la cartes and we went to 3 during our stay. They’re all good, with the best one being the Italian one. You can purchase better wine at the a la cartes for a reasonable amount (the house wine and wine at the bars are undrinkable. The drinks were watered down but if you aid something they’d make them stronger. The buffets did get boring after two weeks but one of the reason we chose this hotel was the location.

There are countless restaurants in Bucerias, and a lot of our guest dined out almost everyday. Lots of great little bars and a coffee shop are conveniently located right across the street. We did a group zip lining tour through Vallarta adventures which was a blast.

The best part of the hotel was its staff, they are all very friendly and do a great job. The grounds are maintained very well, there is always someone doing paint touch ups, and the rooms are cleaned spotlessly daily.

Overall, we were really happy with everything! We rented a condo in Punta Mita for two nights the second week and it was nice break. Mitch got bit by a stingray so we had to have a doctor extract the venom but other than that we had an awesome time and we can’t wait to go back!

OUR WEDDING WAS AMAZING!! LOVE WESTJET, DREAMS RESORTS, & OUR TRAVEL AGENTS BILL & MARIA!!!

Our resort was beautiful, and well kept. It was very clean, amazing food, awesome staff, cute rooms. The beach wasn’t great as the majority you are not allowed to swim due to coral. They have a small sectioned off area on the left side that you are allowed to swim. We went to Dreams La Romana last year and the beach is much nicer and more swim-able.

All the food and drinks were very fresh and the staff seemed to be very diligent. We did love the resort and the staff really do go out of there way to make your stay pleasurable, and really are great with weddings!

Would definitely recommend Bill and Maria’s services! My wedding was in crisis mode and in a time crunch due to another travel agencies errors. Bill and Maria swooped in when we contacted them and saved the day! Very understanding of our situation and amazing with staying in contact so we knew what was going on. Got us great prices too! Thanks Bill & Maria!!

The wedding was just amazing!! For anyone who wants to have a private destination wedding, Las Caletas is the place to do it!!! The wedding coordinator was so helpful and made the whole planning process so easy! Everything was exactly how she said it would be and it was just beautiful! Our pictures are amazing!

Absolutely loved our resort and so did all of our guests!! The location was just gorgeous, very lush. Lots of greenery, flowers, little water falls. And it’s setting makes it seem like you’re in the jungle. Everyone loved their rooms! So nice, and so many room options to accommodate everyone. Regular rooms, family suites, deluxe rooms, etc. They were very clean as well..

We Would Absolutely recommend Bill & Maria’s Services!! You guys were awesome to deal with!

Our wedding day at the Riu Tropical Palace in Negril was wonderful. The Day before the wedding we met up with Ann Marie the Wedding coordinator to go over all the wedding details for the next day. The day of the wedding was beautiful they set up a nice ceremony on the beach with chairs for our guest, and an archway decorated in beautiful tropical flowers. We had great weather blue skies, we hired a Mento band which I would recommend, they did a great job playing reggae music (Bob Marley to be exact) and they also came to our reception as well and played a song they wrote for us to dance too.

The ceremony was short and sweet and our minister was excellent. Ann Marie took care of everything the day of our wedding we just had to show up and everything else was taken care of, worry free. Our reception was held at the steak house restaurant, where we got one side of it. It was set up with a head table beautiful flowers on all the tables. The food was excellent, they made us a chocolate wedding cake and we got to toast with champagne. The restaurant was open concept so we were facing the beach and the sun was setting which was beautiful and made it so romantic i will never forget how the sky looked that night!

The resort was excellent wonderful food such a selection and the a la carte restaurant was very good as well and not hard to make reservations. We ate at the Italian and crystal restaurants, and they had very good food with big servings. The service was excellent and the staff made it a very pleasant vacation anything you wanted they would pretty much get for you. The rooms were clean and the housekeepers came around twice a day. If you leave a little something for them they will make things with towels and flowers which was beautiful.

The employees at the resort were very friendly and helpful. This hotel is very close to the beach, so we had an ocean view room which was gorgeous and the water is crystal clear, and amazing blue. There’s shopping just a walk down the beach where there are many vendors set up, and also lots of activities offered right on the beach like para-sailing, jet skiing, and lots more. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others.

Bill and Maria were great as they helped us in picking a spot to have our wedding. If we had any question we could either call or email them and they would get back to us very quickly. There is a lot of little things to think about when having a destination wedding and Bill and Maria made it a lot easier. I would definitely recommend there services to others.

Me and my husband booked our destination wedding through Bill and Maria and couldn’t have been more pleased. They found us great deals for all our 40 guests and were very patient with all our many questions and concerns. Even dealing with my many phone calls and easing all my many worries and nerves of having a wedding so far away.

We got married Feb. 19th, 2010 at the Barcelo Maya Palace All Inclusive Resort in Mayan Riviera, Mexico. It was AMAZING!!! From the ceremony on their private beach down by the pier and the pool side reception under the stars to the five course lobster and steak dinner, decor and floral choices.

We wouldn’t of had it any other way! And to think I dreamed my whole life of having a huge wedding here at home, but destination was far more amazing then i could have ever dreamed!

Thank you to our wonderful travel agents, Bill & Maria, for all your help getting us off to paradise, and what a paradise it was!!!

Puerto Plata was more beautiful then my dreams. We miss it there already and hope to go back again someday. Our wedding went off without a single bump, everything was perfect. Everyone was having such a great time.

No one wanted to go home after week one. A lot of people had wished they could have paid to stay the next week with us. Whenever we decide to adventure off again we will gladly contact you for further business! And we gladly will recommend you to anyone we hear is about to travel.

Take care, Thanks again for everything!
