About ODW. | The View from Forever

We’re two sisters, two past destination wedding brides, and one heart behind Our Destination Weddings (ODW.). We’ve felt the excitement, the nerves, and the magic that come with saying “I do” away from home, and that’s exactly why we love what we do.

For over a decade, we’ve helped couples plan effortless, unforgettable weddings across the Caribbean and Mexico. As award-winning and top-producing travel specialists for ten consecutive years, we bring not only experience but genuine care.

Our couples quickly become family. We laugh with you, celebrate with you, and make sure you always feel supported. What started as our shared love for travel and connection has become something much bigger — a lifelong passion for helping others create their view from forever.

With love,
Carol & Carolisa

The best support a bride could ever ask for!

Working with Carol (and her sister Carol!) was one of the most meaningful parts of my entire wedding journey. My destination wedding at the Royalton Riviera Cancun would not have been the same without them. The value was incredible — they worked within my budget, fought for the best rates, and made sure my guests had options they were comfortable with. Every penny felt like it went toward peace of mind.

But what truly set them apart was their heart. Their professionalism was perfection, but their attitude… that’s what changed everything for me. They were patient, warm, and supportive in a way that felt so personal. We talked almost every day, and now that the wedding is over, I genuinely miss our conversations. It felt like losing a little piece of my daily routine, because they weren’t just planning my trip — they were walking through the entire experience with me.

When negative reviews started coming out about the resort after I booked, I was overwhelmed and scared. Carol never let me spiral. She reassured me, kept me grounded, and reminded me that everything would work out. And she was right.

She handled every single guest, even the difficult ones, with unbelievable grace. She made me feel understood, taken care of, and never alone in the process.

Carol didn’t feel like a travel agent… she felt like a sister. And I will always be grateful for her.

Above & Beyond

If you are planning a destination wedding, do yourself a favor and hire Carol Ebua and her team. They are professional, deeply empathetic, and absolute rockstars. From the very beginning, Carol guided us through finding the right resort for our group size and budget. She handled all hotel communications regarding our room block, securing fantastic rates and negotiating tirelessly to make sure we got the best possible deal. They also provided us with an astonishing website for our guests to book and manage their reservations.

Planning a destination wedding is stressful, but it became even more challenging when we heartbreakingly lost two family members during the process. Carol and her team treated us with the utmost sympathy and compassion. We never felt rushed or pressured; they truly made us feel like our feelings mattered and literally held our hands through our toughest moments.

Our Destinations Weddings Review

Our Destinations Weddings was exceptional in helping my wife and me plan our wedding room block for our family and friends. They made the entire process seamless from start to finish, not only for us but also for all of our guests.

The resort recommendations they provided were all excellent, and we ultimately chose Dreams Onyx. It was the perfect choice—our family and friends had an amazing time enjoying the resort’s activities, delicious food, and beautiful amenities.

We highly recommend Our Destinations Weddings to anyone looking for assistance with wedding room blocks. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail made the planning process stress-free, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. Thank you for helping make our wedding celebration so memorable!

Too ❤️ Easy!

I'm so glad I found Our Destination Weddings (ODW)! I had no idea where to start when my fiancé and I decided to have a destination wedding. They guided us to the perfect all-inclusive resort that checked all my boxes! They were very communicative through the entire process. They were always there to answer my questions and respond to my guests. My wedding day was one of the most beautiful days of my life. Thank you ODW ❤️ With Love, Maylene & Randell

Highly recommend

We interviewed a few different travel agents and from the moment I had a call with Carol, I knew they would be the best for my husband and I. Their team took care of our guest, took the guess work out of it all, and made sure the travel arrangements were taken care of (even some very last minute changes). They answered my 100 questions and it never felt as if I was bothering them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Destination wedding

We couldn't have asked for a better travel agency to help us plan our destination wedding! From the very beginning, the team was organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our dream wedding a reality.
Carol was always there when we needed anything !
They handled all of the travel arrangements smoothly, answered every question we had, and made the entire process stress-free for us and our guests. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and friendly service gave us complete confidence every step of the way.

Our wedding was everything we had hoped for, and we know we couldn't have done it without their support and expertise. We are incredibly grateful for all of their hard work and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a destination wedding or special trip. Thank you for helping create memories we'll cherish forever!

Exceptional Service Through Every Unexpected Challenge

As I navigated planning my wedding, I searched social media and wedding websites to help find the best booking agency for my group. There were several agencies to choose from, but I always paid close attention to the reviews. Our Destination Weddings consistently had great reviews for their attentiveness and professionalism, which ultimately led me to choose them.
I started my journey with Our Destination Weddings about a year and a half before my April 2026 wedding. Initially, I had between 85 and 90 guests interested in attending, and from the very beginning, the process was easy and smooth. My booking agent and group coordinator was Carol, and she was absolutely amazing—helpful, encouraging, knowledgeable, and always available when I needed assistance.
Carol made the entire process seamless. She handled all the work, including creating a personalized website with a booking link that I could share with my guests. Because of her, I didn't have to worry about travel arrangements and could focus on planning my wedding.
Then came the devastating Jamaican storm of October 2025. Initially, the resort I had booked intended to remain open. However, about 30 days later, in November, they announced they would be closing for nearly a year—well beyond my wedding date. At that point, we were less than six months away from the wedding. I didn't want to move the wedding to another country, and there were very few alternative options available on the island.
Carol was incredible throughout this entire situation. She kept me levelheaded, and while I knew I wasn't her only client dealing with this challenge, she always made me feel like I was. Honestly, had it not been for Carol, I was so frustrated by the uncertainty surrounding the resort change that I may not have ended up having the reception I originally envisioned and wanted.
Within just two weeks, Carol and her team found a new resort and completely transferred my entire group. They handled all the legwork, secured the contracts with the new resort, and managed the details without placing any additional stress on me. It was definitely a stressful time, but without someone like Carol assisting me, I truly don't know what I would have done.
There were several times when I wanted to throw in the towel, but Carol was always there to encourage me to keep moving forward. She continually reassured me that my day would come, that it would be beautiful, and that everything we were going through would ultimately be worth it.
By the time everything was finalized, we had a total of 71 guests traveling to Jamaica. After the resort change, additional deposits were required that hadn't been part of the original plan. Even then, Carol and her team were incredibly accommodating. They worked with guests to create payment schedules that worked for everyone. Transportation was arranged, travel plans were finalized, and every detail was put into place. I truly didn't have to worry about a thing.
Traveling to Jamaica and getting to the resort was seamless. While there were a few issues during the trip itself, none of them had anything to do with Our Destination Weddings. They absolutely knocked it out of the park when it came to their responsibilities and support.
My wedding day was beautiful. Everyone had an amazing time, and everything went off without a hitch.
I would absolutely recommend Our Destination Weddings to anyone planning a destination wedding. The only unfortunate part is that you can't specifically request Carol and are instead assigned an agent. Not that I plan on doing this again, but if I ever did, I would choose Carol again without hesitation.
Carol is caring, encouraging, and full of great advice whenever difficult decisions need to be made. If you're planning a destination wedding and want a team that will advocate for you, handle the details, and help ensure everything is exactly the way you envision it, Our Destination Weddings is the company to use.
