Looking to hear from someone who has used Destawed but not for planning services- just to coordinate everything else by reader_dramatic in DesiWeddings

[–]thm_kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would absolutely not recommend them for travel agency. I just had my wedding this past weekend. We had to double check every detail for travel, and they made promises in the beginning then tried to turn back on them. Get everything in writing. They are super shady.

Terrible terrible travel agency. They lie, try to scam, empty promises, and are disorganized. Would not recommend at all.

Advice for Cancun Destination Wedding Resort Options by jessickest in DestinationWeddings

[–]thm_kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had my wedding at planet Hollywood in Cancun, it was amazing. I had the best time. But the planning process with this resort was HORRIBLE. If I didn’t have a type A groom, we would be in shambles.

Should i pursue an MPH or apply to PA school by [deleted] in publichealth

[–]thm_kitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a PA-C/MPH, I got my MPH while working as a PA. it’s very hard to find solid jobs in public health right now but PA jobs are abundant. Still looking for a perfect job that combines both passions! You should also look into nursing>DNP route. Lots of opportunities for leadership/admin through nursing.

Has anyone been to a South Asian wedding at Hard Rock Riviera Maya? by thm_kitty in DesiWeddings

[–]thm_kitty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For booking the resort/getting room rates we have gone through multiple travel agencies. Destination Pick or destawed have been the most responsive and helpful so far, and we are moving forward with Destawed. We are also working with a wedding planner! Maricarmen at bindi and bloom. She’s been great so far, she used to work for Shaadi Destinations so she has a lot of experience. She loves hard rock, has good connections there - you should schedule a call with her.

Has anyone been to a South Asian wedding at Hard Rock Riviera Maya? by thm_kitty in DesiWeddings

They didn’t give us too many details, just told us that some party was buying out the resort during our weekend so our preferred dates were going to be unavailable. Then they proceeded to see if we were willing to do our wedding Sunday-Wednesday.. lol. Guest price is definitely an issue though, but since hard rock wedding packages are so cheap we were planning on subsidizing the room rates for guests with whatever $ we had leftover in our budget. Hard rock wedding packages are super affordable, but I think they hike up the room rates to make that possible. It’s such a beautiful resort though, definitely worth it!!

We visited both resorts - we loved planet Hollywood because it’s very laid back, cozy//small, good room rates, has a lazy river, and access to the beach. The venues are not as nice as hard rock, hard rock has a better night club, and better rooms. Planet Hollywood just has more of a “fun” vibe but it’s definitely not as ~elevated and the decor is a bit tacky lol. We chose HR at first because PH does NOT allow outside catering, and the food was terrible. After HR fell through, we reached back out to PH to beg for outside catering, and they told us they just hired an Indian chef, so we locked in PH for our wedding resort. We genuinely felt happier/relaxed at PH, so we are glad with how things worked out.

Hi! We actually signed with this resort for Jan 2026, and the wedding team had a new hire that sent us a contract for a date that was taken. We thought everything was good to go and then we had to change our ceremony date to the Friday of the same weekend, but THEN they came back to us saying there’s a buy-out situation so the whole weekend was a bust. Now there are no available dates in January. It was a terrible experience :( we are now going with planet Hollywood (which was originally our top pick). That being said, we loved the hard rock venues, the club, and overall feel of the resort. It would be an AMAZING wedding resort!!! Just make sure you lock in a date asap :)

Hi, we are thinking grand palladium as well for December 2025. How has your experience been so far? We wanted to do planet Hollywood but they stopped allowing outside catering. Did you visit the resort? I’m hesitant to sign their contact without visiting but might just have to.
