Via Destinations is top class and your wedding will be too
I want to give my most sincerest and upmost recommendation of Via Destinations. They helped us plan our dream wedding and were readily available for any questions we or our guests had throughout the entire process. We truly could not have done it without them. Their experience and expertise showed throughout the day and days leading up to the wedding. We had so much fun the day of the wedding and we could not think of a single negative and a lot of our guests commented it was one of the most, if not the most, beautiful weddings they’ve been to. If you are looking for full service wedding planners to help you plan your destination wedding look no further than Via Destinations, you will not be disappointed.

Our Dream Cancun Wedding
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with the Via Destination team; Ambar, Paulina, Vivian, and Valeria. They made the entire process feel easy with great communication, seamless guest coordination, and amazing vendor recommendations.
On the day of the wedding, having the Via Destination team there in person made all the difference. They handled everything behind the scenes so smoothly that we were able to fully relax and enjoy every moment.
We’re so grateful for everything they did to make our day so special and unforgettable. My wife and I couldn’t recommend them more!

Dream Wedding in Mexico - Xcaret
We recently had the pleasure of working with Via Destination Weddings. They were highly recommended from my wife's cousin, and they did not disappoint. Paulina, Ambar, Maggie, and Valeria were unbelievable, and they made our wedding day truly special and unforgettable. We could not have dreamed of a better wedding, and it would not have been possible without Via Destination Weddings.
Paulina helped us finalize the major decisions, stay organized, and make sure everything ran smooth. Ambar steered the ship and she was very diligent, hard working, friendly, calm, and she gave us the reassurance that we needed when we were stressed and overwhelmed with all of the details that go into planning a wedding. Ambar took the lead with all of our vendors and suppliers and did so effortlessly. Ambar also stayed on top of all the timelines/deadlines so that we did not have to worry or stress about dates. Maggie was incredible with helping our guests book their hotel rooms (and some of our guests were not easy to deal with). Valeria was a big help as our wedding date came closer. She was very hands on and super helpful during our wedding weekend.
The Via team excelled in planning what was the best weekend of our lives. The Via team was really easy and fun to work with during the 13-month planning process. Wedding planning can be stressful at times, but they made the journey very pleasant and enjoyable.
They also went above and beyond during our wedding weekend. The day before our wedding weekend, the whole team helped us store, pack, make, and give out our welcome bags for our guests, which we were so grateful for. During our wedding, they all worked very hard, and they stay organized and on top of every single one of our wishes and desires.
We are forever grateful to Via Destination Weddings, and we cannot thank them enough. We are happy to say that we have made some friends that will last a lifetime as well. We have already highly recommended Via to one of our good friends that plans on getting married soon in Mexico, and we highly recommend the Via team to anyone who is looking for the dream team of wedding planners.

Acabamos de regresar del Riu Palace Riviera Maya fuimos un grupo de 96 personas familiares y amigos para la boda de mi hija y todo fue espectacular! La atención y servicios de Vía Destination son excelentes, la comunicación siempre fue muy efectiva y rápida y atentos a cada detalle! Agradecidos de Maggie y Vivían y muy recomendados para realizar con ellos las reservas o cualquier evento. También Recomendamos 100% este hotel para Vacaciones o cualquier tipo de celebraciones!

Tulum Wedding
The Via Destination team are the complete package! We started working with them about a year and a half before our wedding and they helped us with absolutely every detail along the way. Vivian was absolutely amazing and so patient with us when we were searching for a venue. She gave us detailed quotes for every single venue we were interested in. Ambar and Paulina worked with us to make sure every detail of the wedding was perfect! They even took the time to drive us to every venue when we took a trip down to Cancun for multiple venue tours. And they met with us again for site inspections as well as food tastings. They helped coordinate with every vendor and made sure everything was exactly how we wanted it to be! Lastly, Maggie was so helpful and responsive with us as well as our guests with any travel questions we had. The added bonus of the Via team’s travel agency services is invaluable! Overall, we had an amazing experience with Via and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have a destination wedding in Mexico!

A True Pleasure to Work With
Not a bad thing to say about Via Destination Weddings. We absolutely loved working with Dana, Ambar, Paulina, Maggie and Vivian. They truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day the best day ever, down to every little detail. They took on the stress of wedding planning, and gave us access to some of the best vendors. I recommend these ladies 100 times over.

Absolutely Amazing Company!!
From start to finish, Via Destination was better than we could've expected or asked for! Not only did they help us find a venue that fit our specific needs, they planned our wedding twice due to having to cancel (covid) just 2 months prior to our initial wedding date. Our entire team was amazing - Paulina, Ambar, Dana & Vivian assisted us through our entire planning process including assisting with whatever we needed the day of the ceremony. Paulina arranged meetings and shuttled us around to check out a few of the hotels/venues that we liked based on our vision. Once we selected our venue, they helped us find the best vendors (DJ, photographer, florist, etc.) based on our budget and preferences. Ambar helped us a ton with decor, they asked us to create a pinterest page with what we envisioned and they nailed it! Our reception looked as if it were the pictures from pinterest we selected. They kept constant communication with us through the 2 year process with updates. The hotel was a little slow on getting answers but we had trust that Via had it all under control and they were! Dana coordinated communication between the hotel and our guests on getting their rooms booked with their individual needs and more behind the scenes that we were unaware of. You always hear of problems that arise the day of the wedding that mostly go unnoticed by those attending, but if there was anything unplanned, it went unnoticed by us as well. We were truly amazed and Via Destination greatly exceeded our expectations! We would highly recommend them to anyone!
