Beyond Grateful 🙏🏼

April and her team orchestrated the most seamless experience for our large destination wedding to Cancun at Dreams Riviera. I don’t know what we would have done without them, through all the ups and downs of COVID 19, April and her team helped us with each hurdle! The team also planned our honeymoon which also had to be changed 2 weeks before because of last minute COVID travel restrictions and they made everything stress free and so special. All of my guests raved about how amazing the team was with all the travel changes and flights being canceled etc. and that made my experience as a bride such much less stressful! We can’t thank the Divine Destination’s team enough. They made our special day that much more special and April acted as our travel agent, therapist, friend, extraordinaire ❤️

Dream Wedding at Dreams Las Mareas

Using Divine Destination Weddings allowed us to book a stress-free Destination Wedding to a location we had never been too. Our initial consultation helped figure out the perfect resort for our needs and wants. The prices were reasonable for the resort as were the wedding packages. Divine put together a payment plan for our guests so they didn’t need to pay for the trip all at once. Divine will be our go to travel company for our future trips. Honestly, our wedding and vacation was a true DREAM.

Glorious Hawaii!!

My Wife and I were married on October 15, 2022. We were in planning mode for a year, practically everyday. Needing assistance in a small window of time, I logged onto Divine Destination.

April was absolutely fabulous! She really assisted in the entire Honeymoon experience, by understanding our needs and budget, while providing her personal insights on how to enjoy Hawaii!

We travelled to four islands (life milestone was four nights at the Four Seasons in Lanai, where we were travelled on a private jet and received a free night). Each location, April had champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries waiting in our breath-taking suite overlooking the ocean!

April planned just the right mixture of leisure and touring, coordinating every step of the way, while we were being pampered!

We highly recommend using Divine Destination for your Hawaii experience. We plan on using April for our next trip!

Didn't even know I needed this until I experienced it.

I was so shocked at how well April worked for us I have literally recommended her to each of my friends who are getting married. Simply put: she makes complicated international travel seamless -- Which is hard for people like me who like to be in control of everything. She'll tell you someone will be there waiting or be here at this time for this excursion and like magic, there is someone waiting for you with your name on a sign just like in the movies.

The absolute best!

We’d like to start by saying WOW!!!!! April and her team are absolutely amazing. We were considering going with a free “wedding traveler specialist “ however we decided to go with our gut and use some of our budget to pay for the service. Worth every penny and some!!
April and her team went above and beyond. They were attentive to our needs, especially as a stressed out wedding couple. They were patient, communicative, and always there to guide us with all their knowledge. April was able to understand our vision and she guided us to the perfect resort for our large wedding in Cancun. Additionally, April and her team were able to answer all of our guest questions, handle their reservations, book flights, and set up transportation for all of our 120 guests. We were able to truly enjoy our wedding planning process with minimal stress because of April. We can't recommend April Schmitt and her team enough!!!

Sandy Pullen helped us plan the honeymoon of our dreams!

Sandy Pullen was our Travel Advisor for our honeymoon. We had a wonderful experience working with her. Sandy was knowledgable and experienced and guided us in the direction to book the honeymoon of our dreams. Throughout the whole experience, she was responsive, attentive, caring, honest and professional. Neither of us had worked with a travel agent before, and we are so glad we decided to go that route. Sandy handled everything from reserving our room, reserving our transportation to and from the airport, sending us the itinerary, and handling special accommodations for our trip. We had the best time and hope to work with Sandy again for our next big trip!

Excellent service

I cannot rave enough about April and her team from Divine Destinations. Talk about top-notch, VIP service! She was there with us from the beginning. Our wedding plans were stalled as a result of the pandemic and when I contacted her in late 2020, she was there without hesitation. She listened to our requests and found us the most beautiful resort in Puerto Vallarta. She was extremely responsive to our guests and coordinated their meal preferences and travel accommodations. Having a destination wedding with April as our planner was stress-free for us and our guests! There were zero hiccups. The entire process was seamless. And April herself was professional, kind, responsive, accommodating. I mean, all the positive adjectives you can think of, they apply to her.

April is the best!

When my fiancé and I decided to have a destination wedding, we knew we wanted to hire a travel agent to assist with coordinating travel for our guests. Divine Destination Weddings was the first travel agency that we reached out to. After having our initial consultation with April, we knew right away that we wanted to work with her and her team. April is so kind and personable! She gave us so many great recommendations for resorts to have our dream wedding at based on our specific criteria. She ultimately helped us find the perfect resort that checked off all our boxes. April and the Divine team , especially Kelly, were so helpful throughout the process. They were always quick to respond whenever I had a question (and I had many). April served as our advocate when dealing with the resort and always made sure decisions were made in our best interest. My guests all said booking was easy and that April / Kelly were easy to get a hold of. Everyone commented that they were both so nice and helpful! Unfortunately, Covid came around and I ended up cancelling my wedding. April was so supportive when coming to that difficult decision. She made the cancellations seamless and she fought to ensure that my guests got the most money back as possible. Even though I cancelled my wedding, I am happy I chose April and her team because I cannot even imagine dealing with the covid mess by myself. They are truly the best! If you are considering a travel agent, look no further!

Divine Travel Company's reply:

Dear Lauren, We graciously thank you for your kind review but we especially thank you for handing the disappointments of the year with such grace. You and your family were so kind and it was wonderful to see everyone pull together to support you. Congratulations on your marriage!

You need someone with clout!!

I was canceled! Covid canceled my wedding but April Schmitt saved us! We were set to travel in one month everything was paid in full and covid hit. I was a mess, crying, feeling sorry for myself and my guests. The resort wasn't offering refunds. April was able to calm my nerves, my fears and I just felt like she would handle everything. And she did! We were able to reschedule our wedding at new LOWER rates and move all our air with no fees and those guests that still wanted to cancel received a full refund. I know my group was lucky (lucky that we worked with April). I have read so many horror stories about the wedding groups that lost all of their money. I will never NOT use April for my travel. She is a magician with travel and her clout is the real deal!

Divine Travel Company's reply:

Dear Clarice, You and John handled the disappointment will grace and class. I am so glad you were able to have your beautiful wedding last month in Mexico. Your guests were so gracious and I am happy I was able to negotiate the best possible outcome for your wedding.
Covid can't cancel love!

Grateful! Safari & Maldives

Grateful is the word that comes to mind when I think of April at Divine Destination Weddings & Honeymoons. She was referred to us by a friend that used her for their Fiji Honeymoon. I was so hesitant to use a travel advisor and was afraid I would pay too much but I quickly saw her value and how much money and headache she was saving me! She is so intuitive at figuring out what I was trying to say. We reviewed several proposals for amazing, creative, and stunning locations for our small wedding and finally decided on a 1 week safari and the wedding to follow in the Maldives. It was magical and all the extra special surprise April planned for us were above and beyond out expectations. We are so blessed we were able to travel just before the covid shutdown. I feel for all the couples that have been canceled due to covid. Thank you April! We will be loyal clients for life!!!

Divine Travel Company's reply:

Thank you for this thoughtful review! You two and your families were wonderful to work with. I love your adventurous spirits! I so look forward to planning your next adventure!! XOXO

Amazing Experience with Divine Destinations Weddings

April and her team made our wedding planning process MUCH easier - we couldn't be more grateful for her quick responses, excellent communication, and all of her help!

Another trip for the books!

Once again, April, you have done it! We have now used April for our honeymoon, along with a recent anniversary trip, both trip full of special moments and memories for the books! April is always so willing to go above and beyond without any hesitation! She is always understanding of our needs/wants, helpful with guidance to make the best choices, and with her help, the trip logistics are made seamlessly and stress free! She has always been prompt to answer my questions! I know preparing for big trips like these ones would have been much more of a stress inducer without April! With her help, we have made priceless memories that we will forever be grateful for. We will most definitely use April again for any of our future trips, and have and will continue to refer her to our family and friends without any second thought! Thank you again April for all of your help and hard work to make our trip so special!

April and her team are fabulous! Super helpful and accommodating. Choosing a destination wedding venue can be super overwhelming. After a quick call with April to discuss where and what we were looking for she sent us several options just a few days later. Once we choose the resort April took care of mostly everything from that point on. I only had to step in of course to talk to the wedding planner and coordinators at the resort.

If you are planning on doing a destination wedding or just planing a special trip I highly recommend using Divine destinations.

Thank you to April and her team for helping us find our venue for our very special day!

If I could give ten stars For value rating I would! I cannot rave enough about April and Divine Deatination Weddings! I keep telling people that working with them was the best decision I could have ever made when it came to the wedding planning process. I had 90 high profile (and very high maintenance) guests attend my destination wedding in the Riviera Maya two weeks ago and they handled reservations, from start to finish for every guest flawlessly. They went above and beyond. Until I decided to work with them
I was spinning my wheels for two months trying to do research on my own to figure out where to even have my wedding. After one conversation with April I was so relieved and knew she would help me find the perfect venue for my wedding and she did. She worked with me from start to finish, handled all booking and correspondence with my guests as well as worked as a go between with me and the resort. She helped me pull off my dream wedding and I couldn't have done it without her. She was invaluable and saved me from pulling my hair out at least once a week. I cannot recommend April and Devine Destination Weddings enough.

We worked with Sarah to plan our honeymoon and I am so glad we did! It was one less thing to worry about. She was so nice and gave us some great ideas on where to go. We decided on one of the excellence resorts in mexico and are sooo excited! We would have never even known about that place if it wasn't for her. We had an issue with needing to rearrange our honeymoon days and flights due to out of town guests staying in and she talked to the resort and was able to get everything changed for us close to the last minute so we could have more time with our family. It was so very appreciated and we are so thankful to have worked with her

I honestly cannot rave enough how amazing April and her staff are! I had previously attended a wedding in Cabo that was coordinated by April so I was able to book through divine destinations, which I had such a great experience with. The first wedding I attended was so excellent that I knew I wanted to copy my friend and do the same thing, this of course meant I needed to use April :). April made it so flawlessly from the first phone call and really decreases all of the anxiety associated with planning a destination wedding. Although I choose a venue that is a time share resort and I knew going into it could be a pain in the butt April seriously still worked miracles for me. April was always up front and honest with me going through the options of choosing which resort we would go with. April assisted me in the whole process from the resort taking a long time to answer to making sure I had paperwork with my upgrade. April and Kelly dealt with SO much with my wedding group, I had a few difficult guests that they were so great with. My wedding was the best day ever and I am so happy I had April to assist me through this process. If you are thinking about doing a destination wedding she and her wonderful group are your people. They have great advice and know the best spot. If I had to do one thing differently I would have probably gone with the resort April suggested because I know she is honest and knows her stuff! I could not have asked for anything differently in Divine Destinations, I had family book with them who were located in Australia and Germany and everyone had so much fun! Thank you Divine Destinations Weddings and Honeymoons!!! Donovan and I love you guys!!!
love
Monica and Donovan George

We worked with Melanie and she was fantastic! She catered to our every need and helped us set up the exact honeymoon we had envisioned. All of her recommendations on sights, activities, and accommodations were spot on, and every guide she connected us with overseas was courteous and professional. Whether it's touring, eating, or relaxing, Melanie will go above and beyond to make sure your every need is met! She was so pleasant to work with and genuinely wants to make sure you and your partner are more than satisfied and have a honeymoon you won't forget

They even assisted us in finding the best catamaran trip for our group. They responded to emails and phone calls promptly, not just to us but to all of our guests. We couldn't be happier with the service. Thank you Divine Destination Weddings for making our dream come true in Punta Cana, DR!

We were incredibly happy with the level of attention and care we received from Sandy P. with Divine Destination. She checked-in with us at each step of the process, providing the right level of detail and willingness to make adjustments. She went outside of their normal honeymoon packages to find us the perfect blend of resorts and travel to Belize. We look forward to using Sandy P. and Divine Destinations again soon.

Melanie with Divine Destination Honeymoons was truly the best vendor we worked with for our wedding (which is saying a lot as EVERY vendor we had was amazing!).

Honestly, Melanie is responsible for making our honeymoon the best experience of our lives.

Right from the get-go we knew we wanted to go to London as my husband and I are such Anglophiles, and Melanie got started right away. Most people balked when they heard that we wanted to go to London in December, but not her. After our initial phone conversation, she knew exactly what we wanted out of our trip and made it happen.

The best part is that she created an itinerary that really blended both of our interests from Sherlock Holmes, to WWII, to Harry Potter--we did it all! She kept us so well informed over the course of planning and even when we were on our trip as certain plans were changed or adapted.

Right from the first day everything was so beautiful. My husband and I agreed that the hotel was the highlight of the experience and we would never have found such a beautiful place without her advice. Upon arrival, she had arranged for us to have an upgraded suite overlooking the Buckingham Palace, free gourmet breakfasts every morning, and even a cute little set up of the room with rose petals, candles, dessert, and a truly sweet welcoming letter. Our hotel--the Rubens--was a dream thanks to Melanie's attention to detail.

And the daily activities!! I can not express how much fun we had each day with all she had planned for us. We literally got everything we wanted out of the trip and, again, all her hard work and planning made it all happen.

We are so very grateful to Melanie. Honestly, we wholeheartedly recommend her to everyone that is either getting married or just wants to plan a trip. You can bet we will be coming back to her in the future for more travel plans!

April is absolutely the best! My husband and I found her six years ago as we were planning our wedding. She put together an amazing honeymoon (Riviera Maya, Mexico) for us back in 2010, which she just replanned for us to relive for our anniversary.
On top of numerous Mexico vacations April has also put together incredible trips for us to Thailand and Costa Rica. She truly appreciates our sense of adventure and always bends over backwards to ensure we have amazing experiences. The amount of time and effort she puts forth while working within budgets and personal preferences demonstrates the finest level of customer service. We consider her to be an invaluable resource and we are so grateful we found her years ago!

We worked with Melanie to plan our honeymoon to Italy, and she was simply THE BEST. We planned for a 2 week trip and she was able to help us with suggestions and reservations for hotels, transfers, and the entire itinerary. Melanie was very informed and communicated in a very timely manner. She laid out the full itinerary in great depth and provided us with a clear rundown of everything we wanted to do. I would highly recommend her to anyone that is in need of help planning a honeymoon or a trip!

We met Melanie D'Souza of Divine Destinations at a bridal show early in our wedding planning process when we were still considering a destination wedding. We were impressed with her at the show, but ultimately we decided not to go with a destination wedding and so selected a different local travel agent to plan our honeymoon. We were looking for our honeymoon to be a unique experience that was not the type of vacation we would ordinarily plan for ourselves, but did not have a precise idea on what that looked like and so were very very interested in suggestions. We had never worked with a travel agent before, and the suggestions aspect was what we were hoping to gain from working with one. Unfortunately, after over a month (maybe two) of sporadic communications at best with the first travel agent, we reached out to Melanie regarding helping us with our honeymoon. At this point, we were pretty late in the when-to-plan-your-honeymoon timeframe (with just over 2.5 months before our proposed departure date) and were feeling discouraged. We reached out to Melanie on a Sunday afternoon. Not only did Melanie respond on that same Sunday, but she provided specific responses to the ideas I’d thrown out and gave me some things to think about. She quickly scheduled a phone meeting with Martin and me and got immediately to getting us proposals. We were so pleased with the insights and suggestions she provided. The three honeymoon proposals she provided (Fiji, Thailand, and Bali) were all within our budget, unique and all exciting for different reasons and places we had never before considered traveling to. Ultimately, we chose Bali and could not have been any happier with our decision. Our honeymoon experience far exceeded our expectations, and we owe that to Melanie. She was prompt, professional, friendly, available, and everything we could have wished for in a travel agent. We definitely plan to work with Melanie in our future vacations! Ultimately, we found using

My husband and I planned our honeymoon through Divine and were so happy with our vacation and services. April Scmitt coordinated everything and was extremely responsive. We actually got in touch with her the day before Thanksgiving. She responded imeadiately and was able to send us all the information before the day was through. Needless to say our trip to the Mayan Riviera was a dream come true!

Oh my gosh, this company is amazing!

My husband and I live in Australia and we decided for a destination wedding in Cancun, Mexico. I stumbled across Divine Destination Weddings through a Trip Advisor review.

I got married at Excellence Resorts, Cancun. Whilst it was a beautiful resort the wedding coordinator (Gloria) was a nightmare. Gloria would rarely email back, and when she did her response was vague. Everything was in the ‘too hard’ basket. Gloria booked us the completely wrong wedding (symbolic not legal) even though I must of told her at least a dozen times we wanted a legal wedding. Without harping on for too long - many other things went wrong during the process.

Thankfully, I had used Divine Destination Weddings and my consultant was Carolyn Collins. I don't know how I would have survived this nightmare without her. Carolyn would stay awake late and have early mornings to be able to communicate with me because of the time difference. What my wedding coordinator should have done in terms of organisation, Carolyn was by my side the whole way (figuratively not literally) and helped me with a vast range of tasks that was completely out of her scope of work.

Carolyn booked tours for 40 of our guests, liaised with the tour companies and simply sent all confirmations to my guests. Carolyn dealt directly with all of my guests during this time and took the pressure off me totally.

I have also had dealings with April Schmitt who is the CEO of Divine Destination Weddings. We were having issues obtaining an original marriage certificate and April took control of it and liaised with the hotel directly to arrange another copy for me.

I would absolutely 100% recommend this company to anyone who is planning a destination wedding. The ladies go above and beyond all expectations and I promise you will not be disappointed with the service you receive.

Thank you to Carolyn and April for making my wedding planning a breeze!

Melanie coordinated our honeymoon to Tahiti (Moorea & Bora Bora) and everything was absolutely fantastic. The service provided by Melanie was over and beyond any service I would have ever have anticipated when working with a travel agent. She provided us with multiple options and was never pushy, but was always concerned with providing the best possible option to meet our needs. In addition to basic travel logistics, she helped arranged our meals, reservations, and any other activities we wanted to do. She was prompt and diligent, and made planning our honeymoon amongst the chaos of planning our wedding, very easy. I will definitely be using her any future travel bookings. Absolutely fantastic and would recommend her to anyone I know.

I cannot even begin to describe how wonderful of an experience we had working with Melanie at Divine Destinations. Not only did she take the stress out of honeymoon planning for us, but she went above and beyond to cover every last detail of our trip. She took the time to walk us through tons of honeymoon options (hotels, locations etc) and worked with our budget to make sure we got the trip of a lifetime! I've recommended Melanie (Divine Destinations) to every friend I have, and I will continue to use her for any travel my husband and I do for years to come!

Jessica Wright at Divine Destination Weddings went out of her way to plan a wonderful honeymoon for my wife and I! The resorts that she recommended were perfect and we had the best time! I plan to call her again when it's time for vacation for her help with travel arrangements!

Planning weddings can be stressful, which is why I decided a long time ago to have a destination wedding in a fun tropical location and try not to worry about all the little things! April at Divine Destination Weddings made that SO EASY!

It was difficult trying to narrow down where exactly to have it, but I gave April some ideas of what we were looking for and she came back with rates and information packages for various different resorts in the Caribbean and Mexico. Some were resorts we were already looking at but some of them were some we never even heard of! We ended up choosing one of April's suggestions (Dreams Palm Beach - Punta Cana) and we are SO happy with our decision. She arranged everything for us, including all of the travel information to give to our guests for booking. All we had to do was provide that information and leave the booking up to them. They all contacted April according to her deadlines to set up their reservations and then provide the flight information when they had it. She arranged our group rate, handles any discounts through the resort, and also took care of the round trip airport transportation!! It couldn't have been easier!

She always answered any questions promptly and was so helpful in keeping our minds at ease! We are so happy to have used this service because planning our RSVP's on our own would have been a logistical nightmare. She was so sweet and patient, we have an endless amount of gratitude!!! She even sent us updated spreadsheets to which guests had responded so we knew exactly who was coming and how long they were staying at the resort for. It was a phenomenal experience and we plan on using April for many more adventures and vacations in the future!!! Thank you for making our wedding the amazing trip that it was!!!!

My husband and I just came back from our dream destination wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico, and the entire wedding experience would not have been this amazing if it wasn't for April and DDW! April helped me select the perfect resort for my 28 guests, and I can honestly say that it was the BEST wedding I've ever been to! April is always quick to respond, extremely patient with my endless (and often ridiculous) concerns and questions, and was persistent with the resort to make sure I got everything I wanted. Of course it's stressful planning a wedding, but her advice is always in your best interest, and spot on.
She also coordinated everyone's transportation, rooms, and tour options, and you can imagine how challenging dealing with all those personalities can get!.. but she had everything perfectly under control.
I was so fortunate to work directly with April, and have her as my dear friend now. She is so great at what she does, one of my friends who attended my wedding already referred someone to April for her destination wedding! She is just that awesome!!!

DDW took all the stress out of our destination wedding. Booking with them was simply the best decision we made in our planning process.

My husband and I always knew we wanted a destination wedding, but when we got engaged we had no idea where to start. We were blindly searching for resorts in the Caribbean that met our criteria (price range, distance from an airport, wedding experience, overall vibe, etc.) Needless to say, it’s impossible to glean all this information online simply by looking at websites. After several weeks of stressing, a relative told us about April at DDW.

We immediately felt relieved after our first call with April. We were impressed by her relationships and experience with the resorts – she had extensive knowledge about the resorts we asked about as well as others we hadn’t even found in our own search, including large and small, domestic and international, all price ranges, etc. As she has personally visited many of the resorts (often multiple times) she possesses valuable knowledge that can’t be gathered online. Most importantly, she listened to what we had in mind for our wedding and what was important to us.

April provided quotes for us in the time frame we discussed and presented all the information in an organized manner so we could make the best decision. This would have taken us countless hours on our own. Also because of her relationships with the resorts, she was able to negotiate better pricing packages, concessions and perks than we ever could have gotten ourselves. Also, many of the larger resorts tend to be very stringent in their terms for group bookings, but April was able to negotiate a few key exceptions to accommodate our party.

Beyond her expertise, April was a joy to work with and our guests had nothing but great things to say about her as well. She and DDW have our highest recommendation. If you are planning a destination wedding, do yourself a huge favor and let DDW take the stress out of it for you!

Carolyn Collins was fantastic. We had our honeymoon in Hawaii. My wife and I were extremly busy leading up to the wedding date and did not have the energy to plan a trip to Hawaii. We let it up to Divine and in particualr Caroyln. She delivered on every account. Everything from the flights, rental car, and room was ready and waiting for us. She even got us lots of discounts at the hotel in Maui. It was fantastic and she worked within our budget. Overall, I would highly recommend her to anyone planning a honeymoon or wedding.

I cannot say enough good things about Carolyn and Divine Destination Weddings & Honeymoons! My husband and I had the time of our lives at Secrets Maroma Beach. What stood out to us to begin with was that Carolyn took the time to listen to our vacation needs. She then offered great advice that included several different personally crafted honeymoon options. The resort Carolyn booked for us was PERFECT! Literally, all we had to do was show up and enjoy! Several of my closest friends are already working to book a vacation with Carolyn. I would absolutely recommend her for your traveling needs! You will not regret it!

Working with April was wonderful! And the upgrades she gave us were awesome, cuz they upgraded on top of our upgrades! We stayed at the El Dorado Royale Casitas. The food! Amazing! I found that they excelled in the preparation of flank steaks and salmon, so that's what was for breakfast, lunch and dinner for 7 days straight! Lol. Their culinary theatre was fun! Coming from a culinary background I thought it was a great concept and wouldn't change a thing. We did the all day excursion to Chichen itza, My husband swam in the sink hole but I wasn't brave enough. I thought the excursion would have been better if we had spent more time at the ruins, so I recommend finding out detailed itineraries for excursions the hotel offers. Don't get me wrong, our guide was the best, he was so good, we thought it was too short and didnt want him to stop! Just too much fun. The 2 hours we spent in playa del Carmen was fun as well.
For the most part we stayed at the resort loving the amenities and relaxing beyond relief. We had two spa days and spent the majority of our time at the pool.
We loved El Dorado Royale Casitas so much, we plan to go back! We'd like to stay at the villas next time. We'd like to compare the distance to all the restaurants and its conveniency.

Thanks again. And we hope to work with you again for our next trip.

April was wonderful and very easy to work with. My husband and I used April at Divine Destination Weddings & Honeymoons (DDW) to plan and coordinate our 86 person wedding. It was nice to have someone do all of the leg work with the hotel, transportation, and guests so that I could focus on the details of the wedding. Without her it would have been nearly impossible.
Our first experience with April and DDW was for our awesome sight visit. She coordinated a weekend in the Riviera Maya Mexico. She up personal transportation along with a local expert. We visited 4 amazing resorts. All of the hotels that she suggested were great! Each hotel was different in its own way. Since we had such a large diverse group it was important to us to have a resort of high quality with something for everyone. April also set up some special surprises for us when we arrived to our hotel. As you can imagine coordinating 86 people for a wedding in another country can be difficult. April made it seem easy. She was able to work with all of my guests individually and answer any questions that they may have. Some of my guests needed special payment plans and she was able to accommodate all requests. Once my guests arrived to the resort EVERY SINGLE ONE of them said it was the best vacation that they have ever had. To be completely honest I expected at least 2 or 3 things to go wrong with that many people and to my surprise not a single thing did. The Resort was beyond amazing; the transportation was quick and easy for everyone and all of the guests felt like the whole process was flawless. If you are thinking about a Destination Wedding having a travel coordinator is a must! Overall our Wedding was amazing and it was largely due to April and Divine Destination Weddings. I am happy to speak about my experience in more detail should you have any questions.

My hubby and I wanted to sneak away for an easy, no thinking, sun & fun vacation. Divine Destinations picked the perfect spot at the El Dorado Royale in the Riviera Maya! Great food, great accommodations, lots of sun and fun. They knew EXACTLY what we needed and took care of everything. EASY. I never could have picked this place without their recommendations and expertise. It was the perfect getaway. Since then, they've helped me plan getaways to Thailand, Costa Rica and Jamaica. Their experts all bring unique planning specialties! Love 'em!!!!

April planned a four-day 40th party for 8 High school buddies and their wives in Cabo! She was fantastic to work with and the vacation/party was great!

April has also helped me with travel plans and advice for Disneyland, Vegas, Hawaii and Costa Rica. In every instance she has been incredible with her communication and follow through.
