Choosing the Resort : Why This Couple Chose Generations & El Dorado Royale

About this video

A Generations Riviera Maya and El Dorado Royale destination wedding offers something unique: the ability to create one wedding experience across connected family-friendly and adults-only resorts. For this couple planning a celebration with approximately 70 guests, that combination turned out to be exactly what they needed.

Their biggest priority wasn't simply finding a beautiful wedding venue. They wanted their guests to feel like they were going on an incredible vacation.

That meant looking for great pools, activities, nightlife, excellent food, convenient travel, and enough variety to keep a large group entertained throughout the trip. They also wanted a luxurious experience without pushing the cost beyond what felt reasonable for their guests.

For the wedding itself, a beautiful covered ceremony venue was especially important.

We compared several resorts, including Secrets Playa Mujeres, Majestic Mirage Costa Mujeres, and Secrets Moxché. But we also introduced options the couple hadn't originally been considering based on what we knew about their priorities.

That's how Generations Riviera Maya and El Dorado Royale entered the conversation!

Generations Riviera Maya provided a family-friendly option for guests traveling with children, while neighboring El Dorado Royale offered adults-only spaces and additional dining, pools, bars, and activities. Together, the properties created a much broader resort experience for the group.

Then there was the ceremony venue. The iconic over-the-water pier gave the couple the covered, private setting they had envisioned while still delivering the beautiful Riviera Maya surroundings they wanted. Combined with the dining, social atmosphere, activities, and overall value, the two-resort experience became their perfect match.

Choosing a destination wedding resort based on photos alone can leave out some of the most important details.

Your guests will spend several days at the resort and only a few hours at your wedding. Resort layout, restaurants, pools, entertainment, activities, room options, and the overall atmosphere can have a major impact on how they remember the trip.

And sometimes, the right solution isn't one resort at all. A connected resort setup can give different types of guests the experience they want while still bringing everyone together for the wedding.

At Romance Travel Group, destination weddings aren't just one of the things we do, they're all we do!

We don't limit our recommendations to resorts couples already found online. We look at your wedding vision, guest list, budget, travel logistics, and vacation priorities and use our firsthand resort knowledge to introduce options you may never have considered.

Because sometimes the perfect match isn't where you thought you'd find it.
