Pros: EVERYTHING!
Cons: NOTHING
My fiancé and I had this crazy idea to get married in Mexico and plan a destination wedding. We have never been to a resort in Mexico and have never attended a destination wedding. This was all new to us and we didn’t even know where to start with the planning. Luckily, I was referred to Wright Travel Agency by a bride that I connected with on a destination wedding Facebook page. I contacted them in March 2020 via email and MarieSam was in contact with me within 24 hours. Right off the bat, I wa

Our interactions with Patty and Kristen with Wright Travel Agency were pleasant from beginning to end. They made even the most complex tasks and arrangements simple, were helpful to every one of our guests, and cordial and quick to response throughout. We will certainly recommend them to others, and would use them again in a pinch if we needed to.

I found out about Wendy and the Wright Travel Agency while googling destination wedding information without any personal references. I decided to trust the great reviews about them online, which turned out to be one of the greatest decision I’ve ever made!
The best thing about having Wendy as your travel agent for your destination wedding is her attentiveness and promptness. Her recommendations are always on point, and she never made me wait for more than a few hours to get back at m

Pros: Clear communication, solid advice, attentive, professional
Cons: Nothing!
We wanted to have a destination wedding for many obvious reasons: go on a vacation, simplify the guest list, and cut down on vendors and costs. I wasn't sure if I wanted help from a travel agency because I actually like doing research myself and finding "the best deals." However, one name popped up a few times and I decided what the heck, might as well contact her. So I emailed Barbara Vong at Wright Travel Agency and surprisingly I received an immediate, cheerful, helpful response. Babs took th

Pros: Responsive, knowledgeable, and well organized.
Cons: None.
I worked with Babs Vong for my destination wedding in Playa del Carmen of approximately 50 guests. I lived in Chicago when we started the planning process and guests would be traveling from all over the US so I was nervous working with a remote travel agent (the agency is in California). However, throughout the planning process I never ran into any issues! Babs was incredibly responsive (even on nights and weekends) and always returned my calls and e-mails promptly. She was incredibly knowledgea

First time I worked with a travel agent for our destination wedding in Jamaica and I was lucky to have one of the best, Babs! My sister-in-law found her and I’m glad she did! From the very first conversation she was so helpful and fun to work with, anything I needed help with she was there and with quick responses! I kept asking her to be my wedding coordinator because I trusted her that much.
Along with being so helpful, they gave us amazing rates for us and our guests, along with lots of pe

Pros: Great financial benefits and incentives to booking group blocks

We hosted a destination wedding in Cancun at the Royalton Riviera Cancun on October 27, 2017. Patty and Kristen had great response times to emails and worked round the clock to ensure that all my questions were answered and all my guests were tended to. Having them made planning my wedding for 48 guests, much simpler. It was so convenient to input our wedding information with a blurb proved by Patty on our wedding website. And even more convenient to just provide Patty's email address when I

There are no words to describe the experience I had with Babs of Wright Travel Agency. When I was searching she was the most responsive TA. I knew then that I would continue with this agency. This was such a seamless process due to Babs' thorough communication and knowledge. I am so grateful to her!

I found Wendy via this website and she was great to work with. She answered all my emails promptly and gave my guests all the needed information. Even when I has some issues with the Hyatt Ziva, Wendy was able to step in and help which was really amazing!! Be sure to book her if you have considering a destination wedding!!

Pros: Organized, Prompt, Friendly, Knowledgeable
Cons: Keep in mind they are on west coast time, but not an issue if you make it clear to your guests
I have never used a travel agency before but after inquiring with Wendy Hicks on my destination wedding in Cancun at Gran Caribe Real, I decided to go ahead and take a change and use Wright Travel Agency for my first time. I had about 23 rooms worth of guests book through a room block with Wendy and they were all very impressed with her services- her vast knowledge, her quick response time, her clear emails, her availability via phone during office hours, etc. She requested everyone's flight inf

Pros: Professional, Helpful, Dedicated, Loyal, Trustful
Cons: None
Choosing Patty and Kristen as our travel agents was one of the best decisions we have ever made. Planning a destination wedding is very stressful, so you want to make sure you have someone you can trust.
Patty and Kristen did an amazing job. They were very helpful and professional the entire time. They were there to answer any question we have had, as well as dealing with our guest's questions and reservations.
We are thankful for everything they have done for us!
Thank you!

Pros: Quick Response. Lowest Price.
Cons: None
Choosing the right Travel Agent to handle the traveling our guest to our Destination Wedding in Cancun was not as easy as we thought. We had a strict guideline and all were met beyond our satisfaction with our agent Wendy Hicks.
How responsive was our agent? How long did it take for the agent to get back to my initial email?
This was very important to us as it is important to our wedding planning that we get the answers we need in a timely manner to prevent delays. Furthermore,

Pros: Responsive, Friendly, Knowledgable

Babe helped us coordinate our destination wedding resort, package, and all of our guest travel. She was super responsive and always jumped in if there we had any indication that the resort was not providing the service we'd expected. She is hand down, the best travel agent I've ever worked with!!

Cons: NONE
I always knew that when I got married, I wanted to have a destination wedding. When the day finally came for me to plan, I didn't know where to start. I was overwhelmed with trying to pick a resort/venue from so far away. I didn't know how I would make it easy for my guests to ask questions, book their stay, excursions, etc. I was lost! A friend of a friend, who had just had a destination wedding, was so kind as to recommend Patty and Kristen from Wright Travel. Not only were they able to

Pros: Experienced, Knowledgeable, Reputable, and always Available
Cons: ABSOLUTELY NONE
Wright Travel Agency is a mother and daughter team based out of California, but that doesn’t matter because neither time nor distance stands in the way of this dynamic duo. It is very obvious that they love what they do, and they do it particularly well. They ccd us on every e-mail sent and received, and always kept us up to date with any changes. Expecting around 175 guests we wanted to block 75 rooms at Now. We didn’t know if Now would allow us to block all of these rooms with the usual $500 d

My wife and I are extremely pleased with how smoothly our destination wedding in Punta Cana turned out. Babs, our travel agent, took care of every single guest without any hesitation or problems! Between flights, ground transportation, and resort bookings, she managed to get everyone there and back without any issues! We highly recommend Wright Travel Agency if you're booking a destination wedding but more importantly we HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Babs as your travel agent! We want to give a big th

From the moment I contacted Wright Travel Agency and connected with Patty Jordan I felt at ease. I knew that the wedding stress I tried so hard to avoid would not exist and that the planning of my May 2016 wedding would go smoothly. Patty was so informative and she made sure to answer any and all questions that I had. Patty was very patient with me and my husband and would hold phone conversations (she is based in California and I live in Connecticut) to make sure we understood the resort bookin

Pros: Helpful, Patient, Friendly, Professional!
Cons: None
From the very first email to the last during the wedding week she was so helpful. I was totally lost in the beginning of this process and my fiancé and I had a million questions. She answered them all, her responses were very quick and she really put my stressful mind at ease. She was also very accommodating towards some of my guests who are not computer savvy at all lol. She truly made everything so easy and simple for us and our guests. I cant wait to use her again for our future travel plans.

Pros: Communication was fantastic!
Cons: NADA
I have nothing but positive things to say about this company, specifically Babs! Babs is an absolute joy to work with. She is very responsive and supportive during a quite stressful destination wedding planning process. My guests also expressed that she was very responsive as well. When things were not going well at the resort when we arrived she was very sympathetic and reacted quickly to assist with the situation. She continued to assist throughout my entire stay of my wedding week. She is so

Worked with Babs for over 2 years in planning my wedding. She was ALWAYS professional, humble, organized, and even a sounding ear during this entire wedding process. All of my guests LOVED working with Babs.

Pros: punctual, organized, exceptional people
Cons: none
We had our wedding in Punta Cana and I had no clue how to coordinate all my guests and how to have them book. I found Patty and Kristen and they were amazing. I was astonished at how quickly they responded to emails and calls. My guests all had positive things to say about them as well. We got a nice little gift to use at the resort thanks to them as well. I can not recommend them enough and will use their services in the future as well.

Pros: Travel planning process went smoothly from start to finish, friendly, quick response times
Cons: N/A
I can't speak highly enough of Patty and Kristen of Wright Travel Agency. They helped coordinate every aspect of travel for our 30+ guests traveling to our destination wedding to Dreams La Romana. Patty and Kristen are very responsive to email in a timely fashion, and also make themselves available by phone as needed (even with a 3 hour time difference). I had a lot of questions at the beginning of the wedding planning process about the travel planning process, and Patty was very helpful with an

I had the best experience with this travel agency. Patty and Kristen are truly an amazing team! They helped me with everything from the very beginning until the very end. My husband and I got married in Punta Cana at Barceló Bavaro Palace Delux. This resort was by far one of the most amazing resorts I have ever been to. We had been to other barcelos in Punta Cana but none will compare to this one. Patty and Kristen helped me book over 35 of my guests and since I didn't know anything about travel
