So you are planning on getting married, let me help you plan your dream honeymoon or how about a fabulous destination wedding. From the sunsets in Hawaii to the fiestas in Mexico, I can help you find the perfect destination to make all your dreams come true. When you picture your destination wedding what is the first thing that comes to mind? Is it walking hand in hand on the beach with the Caribbean sea as your backdrop? Is it saying your vows underwater with tropical fish as your wedding party? Whatever picture you paint, I can make it happen. Every love story is beautiful but yours is my favorite. Next stop, honeymoon. There is nothing better than helping a couple find the perfect destination to start their life together and making memories. Over the water bungalows in Mexico, sunsets in Jamaica, romantic dinners on the beach, the possibilities are endless. I have been in this crazy yet wonderful business since 2008 and have toured many beautiful beach destinations in Mexico and the Caribbean. I have had the privilege of helping many brides plan their destination weddings and can't wait to help you plan yours. I have toured many hotels and I know I can help find the perfect destination your wedding or honeymoon. I am here for you, before, during and after your vacation. Let me take the stress out of planning your dream vacation. The tans will fade, but the memories will last forever.

Playa del Carmen....enough said. This destination is amazing and I was fortunate to visit it once again and this time around I stayed at two new (to me) hotels. The upgrade to first class on the flight down started the vacation out right. If you have never experienced first class you should ... unlimited drinks, food, movies, what a great start to your vacation.
The first resort we stayed at was the Paradisus La Perla- this is an adults only resort located near Playa's famous 5th Ave. I found this resort to be large and a little confusing to get around, but maybe it is my lack of direction that was working against me. The rooms are all junior suites so they are nice and BIG. The beach was nice but a little sea weedy thanks to Mother Nature. But no worries, the crew works hard every morning to clear the weeds away. Bana, the Teppanyaki restaurant ... yum! I always enjoy watching the chefs hard at work and showing off their skills.
We did a day trip to Chichen Itza and from our resort it was about a 3 hour bus ride. There are many different tours to choose from but I would suggest upgrading to a deluxe tour where food and drinks are included. This will help pass the time. I have never been to Chichen Itza so I wasn't sure what to expect. It did not disappoint. Our guide explained so much and I feel that if we wouldn't have done it as a guided tour we wouldn't know what we were looking at.
The second hotel we stayed at was Secrets Maroma which is also an adults only property. This resort is located on Maroma beach which has been voted one of the best beaches in the world. The water is so clear and there is a sand bar that you can walk out on for quite a ways. We upgraded ourselves to a preferred club room and with that you have access to a preferred club lounge where you will find a nice, quiet bar and snacks. My husband really enjoyed this! One thing I really liked about this resort is the unlimited connectivity. Now I know what you are thinking, I am on vacation and just need to disconnect, but I have children at home so it is nice to stay in touch. Free Wi-Fi and phone calls home, you don't get this at all resorts in Mexico.
Take vacations ... go as many places as you can. You can always make money. You can't always make memories.
