Good To Know Tidbits

Here is a list of things that are good know know during the whole booking/planning process -Your first WC will be based out of Miami. You won't be working with the onsite coordinators until you arrive in Mexico. -More than likely you will have your meeting with the on site coordinators the morning after you arrive. I tried to schedule this time in advance as we were trying to arrange an excursion, but was not able to. -If you bring your own decorations there is a set up fee which is $5 pp.

Don't Stress....this Is Normal

Date of engagement: 1/11/14 Date wedding confirmed: 2/14/14 Date of wedding: 7/27/14   Planning a wedding in less than 6 months! This is how I did it...   I am a planner by nature. I plan out my work week of appointments (I travel frequently for work). I plan out my meals the best I can. I plan. No, I'm not overly anal nor am I obsessively structured. I just like to feel as though I know what to expect.   Room block: We started with 15 rooms in our contract. I anticipated that at least

The 'perks' Of Booking

Working with Penny at Destination Weddings we learned that there are numerous advantages to booking. Not only would we be receiving perks through out TA, but the hotel as well. My advice to all brides is to research what perks are available to you! Some TA companies can offer more than others. The perks that we are getting have dramatically decreased the cost of our entire wedding. Here are aome examples of the perks that we are getting.   1. Our wedding package is called the Always and Forev

How Do We Decide On A Resort?

This was by far the most stressful and confusing part for me. I had a ring on my finger and thought finding the perfect place to get married would be simple. WRONG. We wanted to get married this summer and with it already being January I feared that dates would be already booked or booking up fast. We also knew that we would be working with hurricane season and couldn't put the wedding off till Sept.   Initially we were trying to decide between Cabo and Riviera Maya. I quickly learned that the

The Engagement

Scott and I got engaged on January 11, 2014. He made my heart melt with what he wrote for our wedding website... "Since the day I met Casey I just knew she was the one. You know how people say, “there is just something about her that I can’t explain”…well that was not the case. Being around her was so comfortable that we immediately became best friends. I was over the moon for this beautiful, sweet, kind, amazing woman. As we got to know each other I realized I found the person I was meant to

On Planning Mode....

So we decided on Mexico, and since I wanted the Caribbean beach look, we are having it at Cancun/Riviera Maya area. The problem is, there are hundreds of resorts down there. We are going to the Karisma Bride Dress Rehearsal next month to look at places and hopefully that will help me make my decision. It's in a couple of weeks so I'm excited.

The Journey Of A Beach Bride

Hello all and Congrats!     When I knew I was going to have a destination wedding, I decided I would create a blog to capture my feelings, share ideas, and have documentation of my 1 year planning process. It's an exciting time and I'm really sentimental so I figured it was a good idea. I really did have good intentions. Unfortunately, I didn't realize how much time this process would consume and much of that time I was not just sitting twiddling my thumbs. I was researching, running around l

Confessions Of A Travel Agent Switcher: Destination Wedding Planning Hard Knock #1
