Our destination wedding services:

1. Resort research and selection
2. Assistance with securing a wedding date at the selected resort
3. Room block contract with set group rates and opportunities for concessions (group perks)
4. Travel information web page for you and your guests
5. Room block management - booking and guest list management

1. A contract indicating all terms and conditions of the room block
2. Set room rates that are specified in the contract
3. Room inventory being held specifically for your group (rooms in your block cannot be booked by other guests)
4. Concessions (perks for booking as a group)
   1. For example: a complimentary cocktail event for up to 30 guests, one complimentary room upgrade for every 8 paid rooms, 20% discount on spa services for the entire group, etc.
   2. Note: Concessions vary by resort, may not be offered by some resorts, and may not be applicable when traveling during certain peak seasons. Concession terms are indicated in the room block contract.

1. A per room deposit will be due at contract signing (usually $100 per room for most resorts).
   1. For example, if you want to hold 20 rooms in your room block and the deposit is $100 per room, you will pay $2,000 at contract signing.
   2. The couple fronts the deposit and it is applied to their room (for example, if the room block deposit is $2,000 and the couple’s room costs $4,000, the balance will be $2,000 for the couple’s room).
2. Contracted group air is only possible if all guests are traveling together on the same flight (hardly ever the case for wedding groups); otherwise, guests book their own flights.
3. You need a minimum of 10 rooms for a contracted group.
4. All rooms will have a 3-night minimum stay (some resorts may be moving to a 4-night minimum stay).
5. Once the couple signs the room block contract and the initial room block deposit is submitted, guests will have a payment schedule of 3 payment due dates:
   1. Deposit of one room night per reservation
   2. Second payment of 50% of the reservation total
   3. Final payment (usually due between 80 to 100 days prior to earliest departure date)
6. Room block contracts have specific attrition terms indicating when you can drop rooms to less than your originally contracted amount of rooms without a penalty. After specific dates outlined in the contract, there will be a penalty for dropping rooms. In the majority of contracts, there is a 100% penalty after the final payment due date, meaning all rooms are completely non-refundable after the final payment due date. It is extremely important to be aware of these terms and dates. We will send you reminders prior to these dates.
7. It is important that all guests attending your wedding purchase travel insurance, which they will have the option of adding to their reservations.
8. While all guests will have their own reservations and electronic invoices to submit their payments, as the contract signatory, the couple is ultimately responsible for all room block payments. 
9. Guests who book outside of your room block do not count towards any minimum numbers required to get concessions (group perks) and are not added to your guest list for wedding events with the resort. Therefore, it is critical that you emphasize the importance of only booking through the room block to all of your guests.

Booking process:

   1. If you are already set on the resort you want for your wedding, we will discuss that resort and your vision in more detail.
   2. Destination Discovery Consultation: If you are not sure where you will be having your wedding, we will discuss your vision and criteria for the wedding and accommodations to narrow down the options.
5. Receive your destination wedding proposal (up to 3 options) and make your selection. This step is skipped if you already decided on a resort.
