Your Dream Destination Wedding?

Instead of sifting through thousands of properties, you’ll receive 3-4 handpicked resort options from our team. 

Raise your hand if this was you: As soon as you got engaged (congrats!) you raced to find the perfect resort for your destination wedding.

But after hours and hours and hours of researching online, you’re left WAY more confused than when you started. Who knew there were so many resort options out there? And how do you know which one is the perfect fit for your vision, your budget, and your guests?

As destination wedding experts, it’s our job to know. In fact, we scour the Caribbean and Mexico in search of the best all-inclusive resorts to match up our destination wedding clients with. We’ve toured the properties—100+ so far!—met with the wedding teams, and have taken copious notes on what sets each property apart. All that background work means that, when you come to CCV, we can quickly narrow in on what would best for you.

Meet Tailored Options

Online Overwhelm?

You love the idea of being surrounded by your loved ones on your Big Day in paradise.

What you don’t love?

Answering a million and one questions leading up to your event, chasing down RSVPs so you know who’s coming, and juggling multiple guest travel disasters (hey, things happen!) when you’re supposed to be RELAXING before your wedding. 

Good news: your CCV destination wedding team will do all of the above for you. Even better news: We will treat your guests with kindness and patience every step of the way. We understand not everyone on your guest list will be experienced world travelers, so we’ll hold their hand—and answer all their questions promptly—through it all.

3 Reasons to Trust Your Destination Wedding to CC Vacations

Destination Wedding

Frequently asked questions

Why couples plan destination wedding?

A Destination Wedding at an All Inclusive resort can be a great way to leave the stress at home. Unlike a traditional wedding, there is no juggling dozens of vendors (florists, caterers, bakers, photographers, etc.) along with lots of payments and deadlines.

With a Destination Wedding, you aren't obligated to invite hundreds of guests. many who you will never speak to. At a Destination Wedding, you can spend quality time with the people who matter most, your dearest friends and family.

In short, a Destination Wedding can be a one-stop shop.
​Instead of stressing about centerpieces or favors, you can focus on what truly matters .... your better half and your guests.

Does a destination wedding can really save us money?

Traditional weddings are expensive. That's it. 

There are many components that you have to piece together when planning at home weddings. Think about this way, you are actually having several events at a traditional "at home" wedding. Events like rehearsal dinner, ceremony, a reception, a morning after brunch, a gift opening, bridal party, a dinner after, the list can go on and on... On top of that, you are also planning a honeymoon. When you add all these up, the cost can be "overwhelming". 

With a Destination Wedding at an all-inclusive property, you can SAVE MONEY by combining all these events together. All your events will be at one spot! You can have a rehearsal dinner, the actual wedding, a vacation for you & your guests, and even a honeymoon!

How much does a destination wedding cost?

When planning a Destination Wedding, there are two costs to consider: (1) The cost of your travel and your guests travel; (2) The cost of the wedding ceremony, reception and other events.

To break it down, here's where a Destination Wedding is so affordable when compared to an "at home" wedding.

When you have an All Inclusive resort Destination Wedding, guests pay for their own travel. Guests love All-Inclusive because they only have to budget for ONE amount. Plus, if you bring enough guests and book enough rooms, you can earn FREE travel for yourself, eliminating this expense.

The best all inclusive resorts have come a LONG way with wedding packages. At the best properties, you can now purchase an affordable, inclusive package that covers almost every detail. When you work with the best properties, you can find packages that include hair styling, makeup, bouquets & boutonnieres, ceremony decor, wedding cake, a private cocktail hour, a private reception, music, photos and more.

Like any major life event, costs vary based on the simplicity (or complexity!) of the event. In the most basic form, a Destination Wedding with a handful of guests can cost anywhere from $0 (yes, free!) up to a few thousand.

A note on the word "package": don't think of "package" as a set, cookie-cutter wedding. Instead, think of a "package" as a combination of services that can be customized. When you work with the right resort and the right wedding planner, everything can be modified and customized. This is probably the single thing that separates a "good" Destination Wedding resort from a "great" one!

​The average destination wedding client has between 40-60 guests and spends between $6,000 and $12,000 on their wedding and wedding events.

What are the best destination wedding locations?

For American couples, the most popular destinations for all-inclusive weddings are:

Mexico: This includes the areas of Playa Mujeres, Isla Mujeres, Cancun, Puerto Morelos, Playa del Carmen, Punta Maroma, Puerto Aventuras, Cozumel, Akumal and Tulum

Western Mexico, including Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo and Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit

Dominican Republic, including Punta Cana, La Romana and Puerto Plata

Jamaica, including Negril, Montego Bay and Ocho Rios

The Lesser Antilles Islands of the Caribbean: Saint Lucia, Barbados, Antigua, Aruba, Curacao

Destinations growing in popularity are:
Off-the-Beaten Path Mexico, including Isla Holbox, Huatulco
Costa Rica, particularly the Guanacaste region

When is the best time to have a destination wedding?

The time of year has a significant impact on Destination Wedding costs, both for the couple and their guests. Throughout Mexico and the Caribbean (the most popular destinations for Weddings!), there are 3 main seasons:

Peak Season (Highest Cost): Mid-January through Easter, plus all Holiday weekends
Mid Season (Average Cost): Easter through August, early January
Low Season (Lowest Cost): September through Early November, just before Thanksgiving

Using this information as a guide can help you plan the most cost effective time for you and your guests.

How can a travel advisor help you with a destination wedding?

The short answer? A travel advisor will negotiate perks and benefits (including FREE TRAVEL!) for you and your group.

If you DIY your destination wedding, you are probably leaving money on the table.

​A travel agent who specializes in Destination Weddings will negotiate a group contract, getting you lots of amenities and freebies for you and your guests.

At CCV, we have built relationships with the BEST resorts and destinations for your destination wedding. We leverage these relationships to build an amazing, unique and personalized experience for our clients.

A travel agent will also help with the nitty-gritty of planning. We will communicate with your guests, answer questions, organize payment plans, accept payments, organize travel insurance, transportation, excursions and more.

At CCV, we will treat your guests as if they were our own friends and family. Each and every guest is important to us, just as they are to you.

When should we start planning a destination wedding?

Ideally between 10-12 months before your event. This will give ample time to select your resort & destination, finalising the group contract, and allowing enough time for your friends & family to make travel arrangements. 

We have more questions, how can we get in touch?

I'm glad you asked! The first step is to schedule a free consultation call. There is no obligation and no fees will be collected for this conversation.

Most of my consult call is between 45-60 mins, I would love to talk to you (or both of you if yuo're both free!) to answer any questions you might have about destination weddings. 

During our call, I will also explain my process, services, and how I can help bring your dream destination wedding to life!
