Hi, I'm getting married in July 2013 at Azul Sensatori and I am having a hard time figuring out how to go about booking a block of rooms.  We have guests coming from all over US, Canada and Europe and I know Canada and US have great deals on packages (air+hotel), but have found nothing from Europe on that account.  Anyone able to help me?  How do I co-ordinate all the travelers?  Is it better to just book a block of rooms and then have people buy airfare individually?  Any help or advice, greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hi jriftin!  I would strongly recommend going with a travel agent, particularly a GI wedding consultant certified by Karisma.  They will get you some nice extras.

Hey Azul Sensatori brides!

Attached is the resort map, I hope you find it helpful!  Yes, as a GI Vacation Consultant we are given extras to pass onto our clients, like free candle light dinners on the beach and free upgrade certificates etc.

Congrats everyone and happy planning!

Depending on where the majority of your guests are travelling from I would try to arrange a package deal from there. Then usually a travel agent can take the room price from that package and add different flights. We had a package deal for 3 different departures (Toronto, Ottawa, Edmonton- Canada) and then for all our other guests we had a preferred room rate (based on the package) and our guests bought their own flights, or had our TA arrange it. Usually holding a package price will involve guests depositing some money up front by a specific date. And then the remainder due about 2 months before departure. If I remember correctly, we got the rate locked in late April, and guests had to reserve with deposit by August. Then full payment was due in November, the wedding was in January. Depending on the TA you may need to pay some money up front to reserve the price, or just the deposit per guests. We had guests from all over the US and Canada (11 different departure points) and they all managed to get a great room rate. There are also a number of online websites that will give you great room rates, and I don't know that it matters where you are booking from. Try: www.sunwing.ca (Canada site); www.applevacations.com (US site).

 

Good luck!

I concur with the other ladies- a good TA is worth more than gold when it comes to planning a destination wedding! By referring all your guests to one individual, it's a whole load of stress off your shoulders. And if your guests don't like the group rate given by the TA they can look elsewhere and that's up to them and won't cause you a headache!  Good luck

We have a small group going but, of course, there has been drama and she's handled it very well!  She also works closely with the US-based Karisma resort wedding consultants and often gets her couples paired up with the one everyone loves, Elizabeth Riff.  Dealing with a good WC to help plan everything is so helpful to keep your stress levels down.  

Thank you so much for the info, 2ndtimesacharm!
