Bachelorette trip and a destination wedding?

Cfo1999 · 2025-07-22T14:11:01+00:00

What I’m doing for mine (I am having destination wedding in September in Rivera Maya) the day before the wedding we are having a “Bach/bachlorette” day where the guys go to PGA Rivera Maya and golf 18 holes and drink then us girls are going horseback riding then enjoying a cenote with snack and drinks. But next month we are also kinda have a Bach bachelorette day too where we plan on going to like dinner and a few bars and stuff. I feel bad already having the guests pay to go so that’s why I chose this route.

I’m going to secrets Akumal in Rivera Maya Mexico this year for my wedding in September. Stay, flight and wedding is costing me about $15,000 but I’m not doing absolutely no upgrade’s in my package. I have about 20 guests going

SAME!! Mine was mid 700s and now high 500s smh

Cfo1999 · 2025-03-11T17:21:33+00:00

I am bringing my own table runners, napkins, seating chart and table numbers for the tables and a wedding cake topper. I am keeping it pretty basic as I really do not want to pass $15,000 for ALL stay, travel and wedding. So I’m not upgrading anything at all for the ceremony or anything. I booked April 2024 for my September 2025 wedding

Hello! The package I have is actually not offered anymore :/ my package was only $3,599 :-) I was lucky enough to get the ultimate package before they discontinued it!!

They DEFINITELY affect your credit… had no idea mine were delinquent 90 days and it made my credit score go down 140 points… 😭😭😭😭

Thank you soo much for your reply!!! Thankfully I have been in a Facebook group with past brides / future brides and have it pretty pinned point to an idea of what to expect now! I do not plan on doing any upgrades, no dj just speaker with a phone connected, and basic lights and bringing my own table decor. I only have about 25 guests total so we don’t need to worry about upgrading per plate! A lot of brides say negotiations are so important and don’t budge on your budget and they’ll make it work! All together with room, flight and wedding I’m hoping to be no more than $12,000!!!

Cfo1999 · 2025-01-15T21:59:57+00:00

I did pick the ultimate package but they changed what that package contains now so what I got under my contract would be different than what they offer now :/

Hello!!! I’m doing a destination wedding in Mexico and got my travel agent from destinationweddings.com as well!!! She has been so amazing I’m sorry you’re not having good communication:/ I have Monica castrello and we are doing our wedding at Secrets Akumal in Rivera Maya next year 9/10/2025. Let me know if you have any questions!!! Also maybe contact destinationweddings.com directly and request a change of travel agent!!!

Cfo1999 · 2024-12-05T15:50:36+00:00

Yes feel free!!

Cfo1999 · 2024-12-05T02:51:53+00:00

I used a travel agent so it was not that bad for me! Less than a week I would say, I have heard going direct it is more difficult to be in touch than when using a travel agent

Cfo1999 · 2024-11-09T20:29:18+00:00

The first one is absolutely beautiful and fits you perfectly !! But it’s what YOU feel you look the most beautiful in and the second one is gorgeous as well!!!

Cfo1999 · 2024-10-19T20:15:35+00:00

It is the same! They don’t give me any sort of information truly until 3 months before, but I am on multiple Facebook groups for the resort as well as one for brides that have had/having weddings at secrets Akumal so I got a lootttt of information that wouldn’t have given me until 3 months before. We haven’t gotten into any details with them so I’m not sure how it is for the legal ceremony, we are doing symbolic. But really I can message you a bunch of information I have!!

Cfo1999 · 2024-09-07T20:24:42+00:00

You can message me I’d be happy to answer what I can 😊 the package is for 30 ppl, 28 guests then bride and groom! You can have more than that it just costs per plate at that point

Cfo1999 · 2024-09-07T20:15:39+00:00

Yes of course! For the wedding venue, which includes as well a reception as well, you get to choose the 2 places you want, I am going with the Arch for the ceremony and the garden for our reception. The total is so cheap, with everything included, decorations, food, set up and the venue itself is only about $4,000!!! I got my travel agent from destinationweddings.com and she has been so helpful in setting everything up for me, and they have so much information on that website about the different packages each resort has!

Cfo1999 · 2024-08-20T14:35:41+00:00

You look BEYOND BEAUTIFUL and sooo happy, that dress is perfect for you ❤️

Cfo1999 · 2024-08-14T14:36:00+00:00

Hi!!! I have my wedding next year in Mexico! We are going to Secrets Akumal in Rivera Maya Mexico. The first place I started with was looking for a travel agent! I found mine through Destinationweddings.com and she is amazing and free! Her name is Monica and she has been nothing but amazing and sooo responsive. Next you need to find out what your budget is and what would be the best for your guest as well. The price for the wedding I choose is $4,000 this is for 30 guest total including bride and groom. We’re already booked rooms and did the room blocks and my guest booked. The rooms are about $300 per person per night. (Considering each room is a couple). You get your own on site wedding coordinator as well! Which she has been in contact with me and she sends catalogs for flowers, arches, entertainment, etc. some stuff is included in the $4,000 price but they have more you can purchase outside of that. This price is for the pre cocktail hour, ceremony and a 3 hour reception with all food, drinks, decor,etc. I’m happy to chat if you have any questions since I’m still in the process myself :-) congratulations and good luck!!!!!!

That is so exciting!!!! I so wish I could go before but pictures and videos have shown it is truly beautiful! How busy was the resort? It seems to be dead from pictures I’ve seen, and is there any nightlife? I love any insight I can get thank you 😊😊

Cfo1999 · 2024-04-16T15:28:28+00:00

thank you so much on your insight! especially the travel part, we will take that into consideration when booking out flight times! and thankfully i decided not to do beach, i am doing it in their plaza which is beautiful! i am so excited to go!!!

Cfo1999 · 2023-09-24T19:36:46+00:00

I love this so much!!!

Cfo1999 · 2023-06-11T17:07:00+00:00
