A tropical destination wedding is perfect for an intimate celebration, but don’t think you have to keep your guest list small! In fact, having a bigger group comes with some incredible advantages. Here’s why we love a big guest list.

Perks of Having a Large Destination Wedding

The average destination wedding has about 50 guests. But why stop there? The more rooms your group books, the more perks you’ll earn!

This means:

  1. The more rooms mean extra perks and “freebies” for you.
  2. We make sure you get the best value for the rewards
  3. More friends and family also means more fun!

Real examples of how perks work

Take Resort ABC, for example.

If you book 15 rooms, you’ll earn $20 per room to put toward a cocktail party. That adds up to $300. Now imagine you book 50 rooms! Suddenly, you’re earning $22 per room for a welcome party, $22 per room for a cocktail party, and $43 per room for your reception dinner. That’s $4,350 in perks, simply because you had a larger group.

Or, let’s look at Resort XYZ.

With 15 rooms, you’ll receive a two-hour cocktail party that includes food, drinks, and staff. Thats pretty nice! But with 50 rooms, you’ll get two private events lasting four hours each. That could cover your wedding reception and welcome party, or maybe a cocktail party and farewell brunch. The possibilities are endless!

Bottom line

The more guests you invite, the more rooms are booked, and the more rewards you’ll earn. It’s that simple! A big guest list doesn’t just make your celebration more memorable—it also adds serious value to your wedding package.
