Costa Rica Wedding

Andrea Coots was the perfect Destination Travel Agent. She helped us plan our destination wedding from the very beginning. The location, the resort, what kind of rooms to block off, she helped with it all! She was always available via phone, text or email, responding promptly to all of our questions concerns. She was available before, during and even after our wedding trip. We plan to use Andrea for future travel plans, there truly is no worrying when you have the right travel agent helping you every step of the way!

Destination Weddings is great! Samantha Russom, Travel Specialist — please request her!

Samantha Russom was absolutely stellar from beginning to end. We started planning our destination wedding in October 2024, and she was there for us every step of the way through our wedding day on October 3, 2026, at Dreams Flora Resort in Punta Cana.

Planning a destination wedding comes with so many moving pieces, especially when you are coordinating travel for a large group of family and friends. Samantha made the entire process so much easier. She was in constant communication with me and my on site wedding coordinator and was always available to answer questions, provide guidance, and make sure everything stayed on track.

Samantha also went above and beyond for our guests. She personally helped our guests book their travel and accommodations and was incredibly helpful throughout the process. She even took care of guests who were ultimately unable to attend due to unforeseen circumstances. She made sure everyone was taken care of, even when plans changed, and that meant so much to us.

What I appreciated most was how genuinely invested Samantha was in our wedding. This never felt like simply a business transaction. She was incredibly personable, patient, responsive, and dependable throughout the entire two year planning process. She made us feel like we had someone in our corner who truly cared about making our destination wedding experience a success.

Even after we arrived in Punta Cana, Samantha continued to check in on me to make sure everything was going well. She even reached out while we were there to send her love and best wishes on our special day. That personal touch meant so much to me and really showed the kind of person she is.

Our wedding at Dreams Flora Resort was everything we hoped it would be, and Samantha played such an important role in helping us get there. I cannot thank her enough for all of the time, care, patience, and effort she put into our wedding and our guests over the past two years.

If you are planning a destination wedding, I highly recommend Samantha Russom. Request her specifically! You will be in the absolute best hands. She is truly exceptional at what she does, and we are so grateful that she was part of our wedding journey. We love you, Samantha!

Breath of fresh air!

My husband and I did not want a large wedding at home, we are both type B and wanted to do something without pressure. Shannon Vega was our wedding specialist and she was AMAZING. Brandon and I showed up for our wedding in Mexico and everything was taken care of for us. Our close family and friends were able to join us for our wedding, she made the transition smooth and seamless. She did not skip a beat and allowed us to actually enjoy our wedding, vacation and the whole process of planning.

Destination Wedding

We used Destination Weddings for our wedding and for help with booking our guest! At first I was unsure because I was swapped from 3 different people during the process which I did not care for, but we landed with Karen LaSala. Karen ended up being super helpful and always answered any questions in a timely manner. Even while on our vacation and after hours she answered promptly, even though she didn’t have to! We really enjoyed working with her and so did our group!

Great Experience

Shannon Vega was great and attentive from the start. The resort that she was able to find for us was exactly what we were looking for and the experience there was first class. You always hope that the weekend will go well with all the moving parts of a destination wedding and it exceeded our expectations! Travel to and from the resort with different flight times and delays from 65 people can be worrisome but Shannon took care of all our needs and everyone felt that experience was smooth and easy. The resort's staff was absolutely 5 stars. They were all so attentive to the needs of everyone on our guest list. We could not have had a better experience from start to finish and would recommend this company and resort to anyone.

Jocelyn - 5/5 stars!!!

We had Jocelyn as our wedding planner and we absolutely LOVE her! We got married at SLS Playa Mujeres and it was absolutely perfect. She always responded to my texts, emails, and questions in such a timely manner. She arranged literally everything for us - which made the process so easy! She took care of our room booking and transportation which was a huge help to us. She also always attended zoom meetings with our onsite coordinator which was so helpful as well. One of my favorite things about Jocelyn - she advocates for her couples!!! She truly cares about you and your experience. I could go on and on… she is just simply THE BEST!

Seamless booking with Sandy Stirling

I could not speak more highly about my experience with Sandy Stirling.
She was an integral part of making our destination wedding experience smooth, stress-free, and enjoyable from start to finish.
She was always pleasant to work with, highly responsive, and maintained excellent communication throughout the entire planning process.
No question of mine/my guests was ever too small, and she consistently went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled professionally and efficiently.
Her expertise, attention to detail, and genuine care made a huge difference, and we truly couldn't have imagined navigating the process without her support.
Thank you so much Sandy for all your help!
Thank you also to Destination Wedding for their clear website to make guests efforts seamless.

Great experience

Thank you Sandy Stirling and all the Destination Weddings team for helping us have such a fantastic Destination Wedding experience along with our family, even when we had people traveling from Argentina, which is a departure gate they don’t usually offer. You helped us in every single step and we had the day and trip we wanted and deserved!
