Looking for Sandals Resorts travel agents? We offer the best prices and packages, including airfare to and from destination, airport transfers, excursions and activities, travel insurance and so much more.

1. Providenciales, Turks & Caicos

Whether it’s your 30th birthday or you’re planning for someone close, it's the perfect time to take off on vacation with family and friends. The Turks & Caicos Islands are a phenomenal destination for a quick, but exciting trip. This territory is made up of 40 different islands and cays with Providenciales, or “Provo” as it is called by the locals, being the most populated island in the chain.

Nature lovers will truly enjoy Provo thanks to its many amazing natural attractions, including postcard-worthy beaches like Grace Bay Beach. Snorkeling on one of the many vibrant reefs in Providenciales will set you up for a 30th birthday you’ll remember for a lifetime. Imagine coming face-to-face with a sea turtle or watching an Eagle ray float by you just feet away! Depending on what you are hoping to see, you can discover the best places for you to snorkel in the Turks & Caicos ahead of your trip to the islands.

You can also enjoy some of the best scuba diving in the Caribbean by staying at an all-inclusive resort in Providenciales. Some such properties include professional snorkeling and scuba equipment and give you the opportunity to become a certified diver while enjoying your 30th birthday trip in paradise.

Expert tip: Try a Turks and Caicos water park resort or one of the all-inclusive resorts with water sports in the Caribbean for some wet and wild birthday fun!



2. Nassau, The Bahamas

Do you prefer low-key celebrations to mark the start of a new chapter in your life? Or do you like the idea of flying to a new destination every year for your birthday? If you fall into the latter category, The Bahamas is probably already on your must-travel list! This archipelago, made up of hundreds of islands and cays, could just be your perfect 30th birthday getaway destination.

The Bahamas is known and loved for its amazing beaches. Most, like Cable Beach in Nassau, Bahamas, have powdery white sand, but others have gorgeous pink-hued sands. Nassau, the capital of The Bahamas, is located on the island of New Providence and is home to some of the best all-inclusive resorts in The Bahamas. Some of these resorts, for example, Sandals Royal Bahamian, offer day and night entertainment, luxury accommodation, bars including swim-up bars, and a host of other quality vacation inclusions. There’s also vibrant nightlife in Nassau, so you can enjoy as many 30th birthday nights out as you wish on your vacation!

Insider tip: The all-inclusive Sandals Royal Bahamian on Cable Beach has its own private offshore island, which you can get to via a ferry from the resort. You can enjoy a luxurious 30th birthday dinner on the private island, then follow up with some of the other exciting activities for two.



3. Ocho Rios, Jamaica

Jamaica is great for celebrations of all kinds, especially milestone birthdays. Ocho Rios, on the north side of this party island, is just the place to go to get an authentic taste of Jamaica. While in Ocho Rios, your birthday adventure can include activities like turtle watching, visiting the Ocho Rios Blue Hole, climbing Dunn's River Falls, swimming at some of the best beaches in Jamaica, or even taking an ATV tour of the countryside. If you’re planning a birthday celebration with family and friends, everyone in the party is sure to enjoy the warm atmosphere at Beaches Ocho Rios, an all-inclusive family-friendly resort. With unlimited food and drinks, activities and amenities for all ages, plus luxurious family-friendly suites, you can’t go wrong with a birthday bash at this resort.

Expert tip: For one or more couples traveling together, Sandals Ochi in Ocho Rios, Jamaica has plenty of luxurious suites, including villa options with semi-private pools for groups. The atmosphere at Sandals Ochi is always lively, and it can be the perfect backdrop if you’re looking for an adults-only 30th birthday getaway.



4. Florida Keys, USA

A trip to the Florida Keys can add some excitement to any 30th birthday. These islands are perfect for adventure, relaxation, partying, and anything else under the sun. With your birthday crew prepped and ready, you can kick off your celebration at the Florida Keys Brewing Co., which has a beer garden as lush, green, and wonderful as the Keys themselves. After that, you can venture out onto a sandbar, like Whale Harbour Sand Bar off Islamorada, by boat and relax. If you cross the over-the-water Seven Mile Bridge, you’ll be greeted with spectacular scenery and a path that leads to some of the best beaches in the Keys. Wrap up your adventure by taking a driving trip, exploring the islands, and interacting with the free-spirited locals.


5. Negril, Jamaica

Negril is a fantastic birthday getaway location where you can truly live it up. Whether you want a Dirty 30 vacation or you’re going for a different tagline, this friendly and fun part of Jamaica will help you create amazing memories. Enjoy some of the most amazing beaches in the world, like Seven Mile Beach. Explore the many fun things to do in Negril, like visiting Mayfield Falls or the Blue Hole Mineral Spring, going on an off-road safari, and luxuriating at an all-inclusive resort in Negril. Whatever you choose to do, you won’t soon forget your Negril birthday getaway!

Expert tip: Negril, Jamaica is rumored to have some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world. Celebrate 30 years of life by hopping aboard a Reggae sunset catamaran cruise in Negril, which stops at the famous Rick’s Cafe. You can leave the kids at Beaches Negril with an INA Certified Nanny so the adults can sway to the reggae and sip on delicious cocktails without any worries!



6. Exuma, The Bahamas

Love the beach? The Exumas in The Bahamas will give you the exotic beach adventure you’ve always dreamed of. Never again will you have to settle for mediocre beach locations! This Caribbean island will show you how beach days should be done with multiple amazing options like Coco Plum Beach, Tropic of Cancer Beach, and Three Sisters Beach. Other things you can do in The Exumas during a 30th birthday getaway include spending time at amazing all-inclusive resorts, going to Pig Island to see the world-famous swimming pigs, snorkeling, and enjoying a peaceful escape!

Insider tip: The award-winning Sandals Emerald Bay in Exuma can add luxury to your trip with lots of options for gourmet dining (11 restaurants), 6 bars including swim-up bars, and so much more!



7. St Lawrence Gap, Barbados

The Caribbean island of Barbados should be near the top of your destination list if you want to plan a birthday trip that incorporates beautiful beaches and exciting activities. You’ll love lounging beachside on this pristine and green island, especially with good company and great drinks. If you’re considering things to do in Barbados on our birthday trip, you will definitely want to experience visiting Harrison’s Cave Eco Adventure Park, going on a jeep tour, living it up at the many bars and restaurants in St. Lawrence Gap (also known as “The Gap”), or kicking back at one of the all-inclusive resorts in Barbados. By the end of your vacation on the island home of musical sensation Rihanna, you probably won’t be ready to leave.

Insider tip: Want more bang for your buck? You can stay at one Sandals resort in Barbados and get access to two resorts all included. That’s 20 restaurants combined!



8. Rodney Bay, Saint Lucia

A birthday getaway in Rodney Bay, Saint Lucia can be as low-key or as exciting as you make it. This friendly area of Saint Lucia is near many amazing beaches and hotels and is perfect for couples, families, and friends. One of the best beaches in Rodney Bay is Reduit Beach, where you and your birthday crew will be able to partake in water sports, stroll, swim, or just enjoy some time in the sunshine.

There are lots of other amazing things to do in Saint Lucia as well, like climbing the world-famous Pitons (twin mountains that are also a World Heritage Site), visiting the Sulphur Springs (a drive-in volcano with mud baths you can bathe in), going to the Pigeon Island National Landmark for beachcombing and hiking, and so much more. To try something different as you head into your thirties, and go deep-sea fishing, or head to the sea to take a fun birthday catamaran party cruise with friends.

Antigua has long been a popular island destination thanks to its 365 beaches, one for every day of the year. If ever there was a perfect beach destination, this would definitely be it! While you’re unlikely to be able to visit every beach on the island on your birthday getaway, you should keep visiting Dickenson Bay beach very high on your birthday wish-list. Dickenson Bay has an extensive white sand shoreline, calm, clear waters, and beautiful scenery that leaves nothing to be desired. Take cocktails with you and watch the sunset with your nearest and dearest!

Good to know: There are water sports available on Dickenson Bay, as well as a nearby coral reef that’s great for diving. Some of the all-inclusive resorts in Antigua like Sandals include snorkeling and scuba diving in their vacation packages (up to 2 tanks per day).

Chicago is a bustling metropolis filled with attractions of all varieties, so this destination is naturally quite appealing. One notable site is the Garfield Park Conservatory, which will allow you to get acquainted with nature. You and your birthday trave party can also visit 360 Chicago, previously known as the John Hancock Center, which has amazing views from the 94th-floor observatory. The Chicago River Walk also makes for a great birthday experience as there are lots of bars, restaurants, and other activities available in the area. When you’re done exploring, you can visit one of the famous cocktail bars in Chicago, and enjoy the renowned Chicago Cocktail and the Chicago Fizz!

Head to this bright-light city where something exciting is always happening, and truly indulge. Take your most lively travel companions and enjoy the sights and sounds of the Vegas Strip.

Out-of-the-box vacation ideas to celebrate your 30th birthday …


15. Theme park frenzy

When was the last time you went to a theme park? If you can’t remember, then chances are it’s been way too long. For your 30th birthday, round up some pals and head to a theme park of your choice. Florida is a great place to go for this activity! Check out some of the popular theme parks in this state, and act like the big kid you really are. Go from roller coasters to leisurely teacup rides, and meet some of your favorite childhood (or adulthood) characters. Don’t forget to over-indulge in the great food as well, since tasty fairground cuisine is an important part of the ultimate theme park adventure!


16. Spa break

There’s nothing quite like a spa day to press the reset button on your life. And, what better time to visit the spa than on your birthday? Get relaxed with your closest friends or loved ones, and engage in some self-care and indulgence. You can select special treatments that will keep your skin firm and glowing, get a tension-melting massage, sweat out that negative energy in the sauna, or relax by the pool. On your 30th birthday, what better way to celebrate than by spoiling yourself?


Expert tip: Want an exotic spa escape? Sandals Resorts’ Red Lane� Spa in the Caribbean has lots of tropical-themed treatments for you to choose from. It’s perfect for a birthday getaway that will combine both a spa day and a beach break.



17. Skiing trip

How about a ski adventure for your 30th birthday? Whether you’ve never skied before, are a little rusty, or you’re a seasoned skier, this activity can be loads of fun and an experience for your birthday trip that you won’t stop talking about any time soon. Round up your buddies (that aren’t afraid of the cold), find the perfect location, and head to the slopes for a celebration unlike any other. It’s a good idea to stay at a ski resort where there are usually plenty of activities besides skiing, like riding snowmobiles, snow tubing, snowshoeing, and sometimes even wine tours.


18. Embark on a cruise

If you’re looking for less planning with your birthday adventure, a cruise can be an easy but fun option for your 30th. A birthday cruise will allow you to see multiple places as part of a single vacation, and you’ll have easy access to entertainment, restaurants, and bars on your cruise ship. Cruise vacations are very popular because you can select the type of experience you want. For example, a cruise to the Caribbean will give you lots of beach time, while cruises that port in cultural towns and cities are filled with adventure. Many cruises are also all-inclusive, so your needs can be taken care of while you’re on board.

Expert tip: Can’t decide between a cruise or an all-inclusive resort? Use our guide to figure out which is best for your birthday celebration!



19. Camping trip

Plan the ultimate camping trip and spend a night under the stars to commemorate another year of life. There are many ways to camp nowadays, so you can either go for traditional camping in the woods or a national park or you can search for some glamping ideas to add a touch of luxury to the whole experience. Whichever way you choose, a camping vacation for your 30th birthday can be an amazing event. Spend time in nature, tell jokes around the campfire, and enjoy the company of the people who make you smile most. Fewer distractions and more love - what a way to spend a birthday!


20. Road Trip

There’s nothing like a road trip to help you press pause on the stressors of life, and focus on unbridled freedom. For your 30th birthday, why not round up your closest friends for a road trip unlike any you’ve been on before? Start the planning well in advance and head somewhere you’ve always wanted to go. Make sure you have the perfect playlists ready, and city maps in hand for some real adventure. If you and your travel party can get some extra time off, try combining a few cities or even states into a super birthday road trip, and make things even more exciting.


21. Go on a safari

Have a wild and rugged birthday starting with a safari in an amazing, exotic destination. One of the best places in the world to do this is in Kenya, Africa. A safari makes it possible for you to see wild animals in their natural habitat. You’ll also find a sense of peace you didn’t even know you were missing as Kenya captivates your heart. If you’re intrigued by the idea of a 30th birthday safari but don’t want to leave the U.S., there are other cool options you can consider like the Safari West in California.


22. Bring the vacay to you and throw a beach-themed party at home!

Even if you can’t get the whole crew to come together for a beach vacation in another country, nothing can stop you from celebrating right at home. Your staycation doesn’t have to be just an ordinary day either; why not have your own beach-themed birthday party? A casual birthday celebration like this can allow you to include friends and family that you might not have been able to bring with you on a beach trip overseas. That means more fun for all involved. All you’ll need for a beach-themed party is some decorations, beach-inspired food and drinks, crowd-pleasing music, and your friends dressed up in their best beach party outfits!

Conclusion: You have many options to consider while planning your 30th birthday celebration. Your final choice should depend on what appeals to you and your entourage. Regardless of the location and activity, you’re sure to enjoy your special day!



Celebrate your 30th birthday in style!

There are so many wonderful places you can visit for your 30th birthday. Whether you choose to celebrate in the US or fly out to an exotic Caribbean destination, you’re sure to have a blast as long as you are with the right company and choose the right place to stay with them.

All-inclusive options like Beaches Resorts are popular for birthdays because they take away most of the stress that comes with planning a fabulous birthday trip. You’ll arrange all the details of your stay at your leisure and in advance. That way, once you get to your resort you’ll only need to think about enjoying yourself to the fullest! And what makes a better 30th birthday than unlimited cocktails in the sun? You can always combine celebrations if another family member is celebrating a milestone birthday too and enjoy double the cocktails!

Benefit from unlimited dining at up to 21 on-property restaurants, up to 15 bars, including swim-up bars, and day and night entertainment for all ages. You’ll have three unique resorts to choose from on two beautiful islands: Beaches Turks & Caicos, Beaches Negril, and Beaches Ocho Rios. Revel in the magic of the islands and get ready for a 30th birthday bash that you, your family, and your friends will all love.

Some of our destination weddings

Kate and Curtis - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Sandals Grande, St. Lucia, Large Group, Destination Wedding

I wanted to share (with permission) these gorgeous pictures from a destination wedding 2 weekends ago we had the privilege of being a part of and booked by Lia. She chose this over the water wedding chapel in St. Lucia with friends and family there to help celebrate. I love her flower crown and her dress and how happy she is. Picture perfect. Congratulations Kate and Curtis! We are so happy for you!

Michael and Shawana Rowles - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Beaches Resort, Ocho Rios, Jamaica, Destination Wedding

Lia was very helpful for us in planning our destination wedding to Ocho Rios, Jamaica. We had gone through a few other travel planners first who didn't seem nearly as interested in our needs. We really appreciated the way Lia helped us navigate through some of the complexities, including the local laws of Jamaica and the planning with the resort itself. Even once we got to the resort and ran into a few snags, Lia was able to quickly get those resolved very quickly. We would highly recommend her for anyone planning a destination wedding or any other vacation. Thanks, Lia, for making our destination wedding the most special day of our lives.

Julie and Chieu Vu - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Playa Del Carmen, Large Group, Destination Wedding

Wedding planning can be stressful and overwhelming, but if you're planning on having a destination wedding, especially with a large group, I would highly recommend using All Inclusive Weddings!

From beginning to end, they help with every step; i.e., finding the venue, creating a custom wedding website, and booking all your guests. Their office manager, Linze, was very responsive, helpful, and so sweet! Everything turned out smoothly and we couldn't be happier!

destination wedding travel agent Cancun
Alison & Alex K. - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Dreams Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa, Destination Wedding

Stephanie was our incredible travel agent for our destination wedding! She helped with every aspect, quick communication and AMAZING coordination with over 50 different people over 8 states. Stephanie from the beginning, gave options and talked through so many questions I had.

Leah and Kell Flynn - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Royalton Blue Waters, Montego Bay, Jamaica, Destination Wedding

My husband and I worked with the company's owner, Lia Vincent, and office manager, Linze.

Lia & Linze were both very warm and friendly, and from day one, we could tell cared about us as a couple and our destination wedding success, rather than just seeing us as more clients. I get stressed out easily, so planning my own wedding alone was overwhelming, even though my wedding was 10 months out. I ended up working with Linze, and we pushed up the wedding date with a little less than three months to prepare. I was initially nervous about using a travel agent / wedding planner, but it turned out to be a huge blessing, because it took away a lot of the stress and worry I was experiencing. A bride has so many things to worry about, so having someone else bear the brunt of the work and worry about the nitty-gritty details was a HUGE relief for me.

Why spend hours analyzing vendors and reading reviews, when you can have a pro do it? If you want an intimate wedding, if you want to elope, or if you want a huge all-out, go-into-debt-for-years wedding, and if you're in the market for a wedding travel agent, Lia and Linze should be at the top of your list!

The day of the wedding, everything was so beautiful, and so much better than I could have done on my own. Lia's company finds the best local vendors, so you know you'll get great value in your package, and what's nice is her company offers different packages for different budgets. We worked with and met AMAZING vendors! The reception was so elegant that as soon as I entered the reception, I felt amazement, joy, and relief because being the worrywart and control freak that I sometimes can be, it was hard for me to trust someone to somehow make everything perfect. Lia was able to give us the dream wedding we couldn't have done ourselves. Our family and friends were also amazed, and repeatedly told us how great the wedding, reception, and food were at the resort.

Puerto Vallarta wedding travel agent
Darby Brown - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico Destination Wedding

I used Stephanie Tindall to help me choose the perfect resort in PV Mexico for where my guests would stay for my destination wedding. She went round and round with me helping me find the perfect location. It had to be nice, trendy, not to outrageously expensive and within a certain mile radius of a marina where my guests needed to go for the wedding. She helped everyone get booked and when things became a little hectic as tracking sometimes can get. She took care of the details. One of my guests had passport issues and she helped talk them through what to do. It was such a relief to have a point of contact for travel related issues so I didn't have to be stressed about it. She did this all with a patient, positive? upbeat and kind attitude through the entire process. I highly recommend her.
Thank you again, Darby Brown

Juliet D. - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
UNICO, Riviera Maya, Mexico Destination Wedding

Unico was wonderful and the perfect place for our wedding! It was quiet and the ceremony was better than expected. We had it on the gazebo and it was away from everything, which was great. The photography was beyond our expectations. We have not received our video yet, but assume it will be just as great. I also used the in house vendor for make up and hair, and was not disappointed. The wedding coordinator, Nazareth, was so sweet and on point. We used the local host quite a bit with WhatsApp, which was quite convenient. Food and drinks were amazing. We were disappointed that 2087 restaurant was down for half of our stay for repairs. We ate at Mi Carisa on our wedding night, which was the perfect choice. Service was also best there. We scheduled 2 tours through the hotel, a sunset cruise and Chichen Itza express. The boat tour was nice. Chichen itza tour was too fast and ok. We really appreciate your recommendations and help booking our wedding and stay. It was wonderful! Thank you again, Juliet and Jason

SECRETS PLAYA MUJERES destination wedding review
Vivian and James Chevrier - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Secrets Playa Mujeres, Mexico, Destination Wedding

I have never used a travel agent before Lia. I have always been the "I can do everything cheaper by myself on the internet" type person; most of the time, it works great. When my husband and I decided to have a destination wedding, we were not sure about anything - number of guests, length of stay, etc; we also have very demanding jobs, requiring constant travels up until the week before our wedding. So we thought that a travel agent may be a lifesaver; as it turned out, she was. Lia was endorsed as an expert in destination weddings on the American Express Travel website. Although she lived over a 1,000 miles away, I felt comfortable.

As I am not a "girly" person, wedding planning was not my thing; however, party planning and event coordination are. Lia and I treated this "event" like a business and I loved that about her; I needed someone to be truthful and provide honest advice. As it is with my job, I like corresponding via emails because I can have all the information on hand and in writing at all time; Lia always accommodated that, and always very promptly. I'm not talking about several emails over a few months; I'm talking about over the course of over a year. Lia was there to provide support when I had a hard time reach the wedding coordinator; she was there when I freaked out at the resort regarding my brother's return transportation (as it turned out, my brother spoke with the wrong transportation company); she was organized to be able to provide me with spreadsheet of all guest arrival information; she always submitted my requests to Classic Vacation and the resort promptly. James and I cannot thank Lia enough to make everything go smoothly for the biggest event of our lives. All 48 of us had such a great time that we absolutely see another group vacation in the future.

Jenni Johnson - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Beach Palace Cancun, Mexico, Destination Wedding

Lia being referred to me saved me so much wedding planning mental anguish! I had tried with a few other travel agents before I had two different people give me Lia's name, and with each of the previous TAs they had to look into things and call me back (I'm still waiting for those calls). Getting in touch with Lia was a whole new experience, she answered all my initial questions in that first phone call, had so many recommendations, and it was obvious she knew exactly what she was doing. By the time we hung up the first phone call, I had decided on a destination and venue (per Lia's suggestion). She was a God send! A year later, we are still having people talk about what a great trip it was and people are always amazed by what a great turn out we had. We ended up with about 60 people, all booking through Lia and everyone had a flawless experience. One even asked for her name when planning her destination wedding a few months later and was just as pleased! Lia told me a lot through the planning process that I was such a laid-back bride, but it really was because she left me nothing to worry about. She answered any question I had, was always quick to respond to calls and emails, and helped me plan the most perfect wedding ever. I wish I could re-live it all again!!

Sara Thompson - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Cozumel Palace, Mexico, Destination Wedding

My husband Cameron and I got married at the Cozumel Palace in June of 2014 and could not have been more happy with our experience. A destination wedding was definitely the way to go for us and Lia was a great asset in our planning.

Throughout the process we felt completely at ease as she handled some of the most important details of planning for this special time. From her first recommendations of resorts and destinations to her help arranging travel for our closest family and friends we always felt grateful having Lia on our side. We highly recommend Lia Vincent and Palace Resorts for your destination wedding!

Bridgette Cariker - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Le Blanc Spa Resort, Destination Wedding

I am truly so grateful for you and all of your help! Le Blanc was amazing! NOTHING could have been better, except maybe the weather, but the staff, food, and service were above and beyond! We will definitely go back there!! Love, Love, Love you for all of your help - Can NOT thank you enough!!

Saundra Ogden - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Beach Palace, Cancun, Mexico, Destination Wedding

Our Dream Wedding!

Lia was a phenomenal help from the beginning. She was referred to me by a friend, and I was incredibly thankful that we used her. When we started planning, we became overwhelmed with all of the information that is available.

We met with her for about 45 minutes one afternoon, took her pictures of spaces we had seen online and liked, and gave her a list of our "must-haves", a list of things that would be nice but didn't matter too much, and a list of things we absolutely did NOT want. She kind of thought about things for a minute, and then listed 3 resorts that fit every single one of our needs. She then ran sample pricing from EVERY location our guests would be traveling from so we could figure out what best fit our and our guests' travel budgets. After about a million more questions from me, we finally settled on her initial recommendation, the Beach Palace in Cancun. As we went through the process, any time I had a question, problem, or was just worried about something not being right, she was my go-to person. I'm not kidding, she would answer me in like, less than an hour 99% of the time. She even took my file home one weekend to give me more time to figure something out before she ran credit cards and got it booked. She was a Godsend!

Casey Morris - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Riu Palace, Riviera Maya, Mexico, Destination Wedding

My husband Cameron and I got married at the Cozumel Palace in June of 2014 and could not have been more happy with our experience. A destination wedding was definitely the way to go for us and Lia was a great asset in our planning.

Lia with Lia helped us plan our destination wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico. We had a total of 11 people and she helped each of them set up their arrangements. From the beginning she was so helpful and always quick to respond. She made the entire process a breeze. She communicated with the wedding coordinator at the Riu Palace and made sure everything was just like we wanted. We did not have any issues at all, thanks to Lia and all of her thorough planning. Each of our guests bragged on her and said how easy it was to work with her. I would recommend Lia for all of your planning needs whether it be just a short vacation or a destination wedding. She knows what she is doing and will make sure all of your questions are answered and that you have the best vacation.

Mindy Huffman - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, Destination Wedding

My husband and I got married in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico right off the beach. It was pure bliss, and everything I could have ever dreamed of! I may be biased, but destination weddings are certainly the way to go and thanks to our wonderful Travel Agent Lia Vincent at Vincent Vacations, we were able to find the perfect place! I had the opportunity to be able to edit the straight out of camera photos from my wedding! Here is a glimpse of our wedding day in paradise!

"It was beautiful! Everybody had a fantastic time!"

The staff was wonderful, the rooms were gorgeous, and the food was AMAZING! Our wedding could not have been more perfect and if you have any brides that want a beautiful wedding on a budget, The Excellence Punta Cana would be my number one recommendation. Emy and Livia were fantastic and everything was just PERFECT! Chris couldn't even believe how wonderful it was.

Thank you again for all of your help!!!

Dreams, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, Destination Wedding

Our Dream Wedding!

As soon as Jimmy asked me to marry him, I knew we would want a destination wedding. We love to travel, and we love the beach, so there was no more perfect place to start our lives together than a beach in Mexico!

I am not the wedding planning type, and I knew that with a destination wedding, we could get someone else to plan the details for us. Luckily for me, my friend Lia at Vincent Vacations specializes in Destination Weddings. Lia had taken care of trips for us in the past, and I knew she was the perfect person to help me plan this trip. I was right! She helped me look through destinations, and we found the perfect spot: Dreams in Puerto Vallarta! The package came with a wedding planner, who took care of the details for me. 21 of our friends and family came with us, and everyone loved the resort. Our party ranged in age from 7 to 82, and everyone agreed it was an amazing trip. There were activities for the kids, and plenty of excursions for everyone to choose from. The staff was wonderful, and pampered us from the time we arrived. One of my bridesmaids had a broken foot and was on crutches, and was in a wheelchair some. The hotel staff assisted her anytime she needed it, including carrying her and her wheelchair up and down large flights of stairs. They were amazing! All the rooms are ocean front, with beautiful views. Jimmy and I stayed in the "Preferred" tower, and our room came with a great balcony with a hot tub! Most of our guests stayed in the other tower, but the resort is small enough, this was not a problem at all. They all loved their rooms as well. The wedding planner met with me in advance to work out the last minute details and timing. When our wedding day came, everything went perfectly. We got married on the beach right in front of the ocean. We had a sound system and a dj who played all the songs that we picked out in advance. My Dad is a minister, and he performed the service for us. We had 21 in our wedding party, but it felt like a much bigger wedding because lots of people watched the wedding. You could see people everywhere on their balconies watching, which made us feel like rock stars. We had a Mexican band that played a few songs after the wedding. The wedding came with a photographer and videographer who did amazing job! We took pictures right after the wedding, then we had dinner which also came with the wedding. We had steak and chicken which tasted great. Of course, I also asked them for chips and guacamole. (I love the guacamole in Mexico.) They were happy to oblige. They provided the wedding cake after which was amazing. After the wedding, my husband and I stayed for another 4 days, and it was paradise. I could not have asked for a more beautiful place to get married, or a less stressful way to do it. Thanks Lia and Vincent Vacations for making our special day an amazingly unforgettable experience!

Marty Hill - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Grand Fiesta Americana, Los Cabos, Mexico, Destination Wedding

This was the best and easiest decision we made about our entire wedding! Lia at All Inclusive Weddings is the absolute best, extremely intelligent, hard working, and so caring. She truly makes you feel like you are her only client throughout the entire process. We had about 120 people coming to our Cabo wedding and even had to switch resorts, visitors coming from all different states and even Europe. She was calm, and kept the bride and groom calm! Every detail was taken care of and it was made to be the most perfect wedding!

Tiffany Phillips - All Inclusive Beach Wedding
Finest, Playa Mujeres, Mexico, Destination Wedding

I just wanted to thank you for all your hard work to arrange the hotel and transfers for Ashley and Robbie's wedding. It was perfect and everything that she had ever dreamed of! The resort was amazing! We had great food at all the restaurants. The staff went over the top to accommodate any needs that you could have had! Everyone felt safe and the beaches are beautiful. Since it's more private you don't get the crazy vendors walking the beach trying to sell you stuff. Our family loved it so much and we defiantly will be planning another vacation. You will be the first I call if we need help to organize something! Thank you again for everything

And lots more!
