Congratulations! You’re recently engaged! If the nitty-gritty planning details and the idea of a big wedding is bringing on added stress and anxiety, a destination wedding may be for you.

A destination wedding can end up being cheaper than a traditional wedding, with group discounts and smaller beach ceremonies. Let us help you find the best destination wedding location for your magical day so you can sit back, relax, gaze at the new bling on your hand, and take comfort knowing your big day will be special and full of sunshine.

The Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit

Say “I do” on the beautiful beachfront of the Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit in Puerto Vallarta. This resort is a perfect pick for your destination wedding with a range of guestrooms and suites available on the 5-star property which offers gourmet dining, spa services, daily activities and nightly entertainment to ensure your whole wedding party enjoys their time under the sun.

Known for luxury vacations, their spa, and as a wedding and honeymoon destination, this resort will offer something for everyone, including a kids club for guests traveling with little ones. Velas weddings will make your day stress-free with professional wedding planners, a variety of group packages to choose from, and gourmet catering services available so your day is what you’ve always dreamed of…whether that’s an intimate ceremony on the beach or a large celebration of your new life.

Jewel Dunn’s River Resort

Enjoy an all-inclusive vacation and celebrate your wedding for a full week rather than a one-day affair at the Jewel Dunn’s River Resort. This adults-only 5-star resort offers a luxurious stay along the beautiful beaches of Ocho Rios, Jamaica.

Weddings here feature a personal wedding consultant to ensure your big day goes on without issue, and even includes bouquets, music, wedding cakes, and dinner at one of the resort’s fine dining restaurants for the bride and groom.

Excellence Punta Cana

Don your white dress and walk down a sandy aisle at the 5-star, adults-only Excellence Punta Cana resort in the Dominican Republic, known for its luxury suites, pristine white beach, and romantic atmosphere.

Nestled in a palm grove, you’ll feel like you’re on a private island with the seclusion offered at the Excellence for a romantic, quiet, and luxurious wedding. Excellence Punta Cana offers three different wedding packages, and the bride and groom are able to customize each detail (for a cost) to ensure their big day is perfect. The honeymoon suites offer a private terrace and outdoor Jacuzzi for relaxation after the ceremony.

If you’re looking to get married in Punta Cana, the Excellence Punta Cana offers options: hold your ceremony in a wedding gazebo, on the beach, or in a garden setting.

For couples thinking of getting married closer to home, where all of your friends and family can attend, the best destination wedding locations also work as great honeymoon destinations. Spend a week catching up on your rest and relaxation after the excitement of your big day.
