Confession time: The guest list is always the most emotional part of destination wedding planning.

Even for my most confident couples, there’s that moment when they ask, “But what if someone gets upset we didn’t invite them?”

And my answer is always the same:
This wedding is about YOU. Not your second cousin’s coworker or your mom’s friend’s daughter.

It’s okay to say “no.”
It’s okay to create boundaries.
And it’s okay to protect the peace of your celebration.

Need help setting those boundaries with kindness? Drop “guest list” below and I’ll send you my go-to guide.

You don’t have to invite everyone.

Read that again.

🤍 Your destination wedding is about celebrating your love story—not checking off a list of people you “should” invite. It’s okay to keep it small. It’s okay to say “no kids.” It’s okay to celebrate your way.

And here’s the best part: when you do that, you create space for a truly magical experience.

One that feels intimate, joyful, and aligned with your values—not filled with stress or obligation.
✨ You get to design the guest list that reflects your heart.

And that? That’s the kind of celebration your marriage deserves.

Need help navigating the tricky conversations? Drop “guest list” in the comments, and I’ll send you real wording you can use. You’ve got this!

✈️ Who pays for flights to a destination wedding? Let’s clear this up once and for all.

The short answer: Guests pay their own way.

As the couple, you’re covering the ceremony, the celebration, and maybe some fun extras (like a welcome dinner or group excursion). But airfare and accommodations?

That’s on the guests—just like attending a wedding at home involves their own expenses.

To help ease the process, many couples work with a destination wedding travel agent (hey there!) to lock in discounted group rates and easy booking links. That way, guests know exactly what to expect—and it saves everyone stress.

💍 Planning a destination wedding and feeling stuck on the guest list?

Here’s my advice: Start with your vision—then work backward.

Are you dreaming of a small, beachy ceremony with just your closest people? Or a bigger celebration with a resort buyout?

Use that vision to filter every name. If you wouldn’t be excited to share your morning coffee with them the day of your wedding, they probably don’t belong on your invite list. ✨

And don’t forget—it’s completely okay to skip inviting coworkers, distant cousins, or old acquaintances you’ve lost touch with. This isn’t about guilt. It’s about intentionality.

“Why I Do What I Do”

"It breaks my heart when I see social posts from brides who are in tears...overwhelmed with guest bookings, her wedding contract didn’t include the perks she expected, and she had no idea how to navigate the resort’s options. By the time she reached out for help, she was ready to cancel everything."

💡 This is why I do what I do. Couples shouldn’t have to struggle through wedding planning when they could have an expert handling it for them!

You deserve a seamless experience. ✨ You deserve the oceanfront ceremony you want, VIP perks, group discounts, and most importantly—you deserve to enjoy every moment of your big day.

💍 If you’re planning a destination wedding at Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall (or thinking about it), let’s make this easy for you. DM me “ZIVA” and I’ll send you my free planning guide!

“Your Dream Wedding is Closer Than You Think!”

"Picture this: You’re standing on a private oceanfront terrace, saying ‘I do’ as the sun sets over the Caribbean. Your guests are sipping champagne, the waves are crashing behind you, and the stress of wedding planning? Completely gone."

💍 This is EXACTLY what couples experience at Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall—a luxury, all-inclusive wedding that’s as easy as it is breathtaking.

The best part? You don’t have to plan it alone! When you work with a destination wedding specialist, I handle every detail for you:
✔️ Finding the best wedding package
✔️ Locking in group rates & upgrades
✔️ Taking care of your guests’ travel—so you don’t have to!

Planning a wedding should be fun, not stressful. If you want to know if Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall is the right venue for you, let’s chat! Drop a 💍 in the comments or DM me “ZIVA” for my free guide!

“What You Don’t Know About All-Inclusive Wedding Packages”

"Think an all-inclusive wedding means every single thing is included? Not quite!"

💡 One of the BIGGEST misconceptions couples have about planning a wedding at Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall (or any all-inclusive resort) is that everything is automatically covered.

Here’s what most couples don’t realize 👇
❌ Your wedding package doesn’t always include a private reception.
❌ Guest room rates fluctuate, meaning prices can change if you don’t lock them in!
❌ “Free” wedding packages? They sound great... until you see the add-ons.

This is why having an expert in your corner is a game-changer. I make sure my couples:
✔️ Know exactly what’s included (and what’s not)
✔️ Get VIP perks & upgrades they didn’t even know existed
✔️ Have a stress-free planning experience from start to finish

The #1 mistake couples make when planning a destination wedding (and how to avoid it!)

"Most couples make THIS mistake when planning their destination wedding... and it can cost them thousands!"

💍 They pick a stunning resort like Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall (and trust me, it’s gorgeous).
💸 But then they book it on their own, thinking it’ll save them money.
Here’s the problem: They miss out on exclusive perks, group discounts, VIP upgrades, and stress-free planning help that could make their wedding easier and more affordable!

As a destination wedding specialist, I help my couples:
✅ Get the best wedding package & room rates
✅ Avoid hidden fees & booking mistakes
✅ Handle every guest’s travel details—so you don’t have to play "customer service"

Here’s something I’ve seen time and time again: couples start off overwhelmed by planning... and then totally light up when they learn what’s included in an all-inclusive destination wedding. ✨

As a destination wedding travel agent, I’ve helped plan celebrations in Mexico, the Caribbean, and beyond. And honestly? The transformation is beautiful—seeing couples relax, enjoy their engagement, and actually look forward to planning because between me and the resort...they’re covered.

These weddings aren’t just easier—they’re more memorable. You get quality time with your guests, a stunning setting, and a celebration that feels more like a vacation than a checklist.

That’s why I love what I do. And if this is the kind of wedding experience you want, I’d be honored to help.
