​If you’ve already started browsing resorts for your destination wedding, you’ve probably experienced it: resort overload. The photos are dreamy, the reviews sound great, and yet somehow, it’s all starting to blur together. You’re not alone.
Choosing the right resort is easily one of the most overwhelming steps in the destination wedding planning process… but it’s also the most important. We promise, there is an easier way - with the right help.

At first, it’s exciting. You’re Googling “best wedding resorts in Mexico,” scrolling Instagram, and saving Pinterest pins like crazy. But soon, everything starts to look the same: the infinity pools, the palm trees, the perfect white-sand beaches. Oh, and we’re not even mentioning the wedding packages!

​The resort you choose isn’t just your venue… it’s the backdrop for every moment of your wedding trip. It sets the tone for the entire experience: for you, your fiancé, and all your guests.
The right resort creates:

• A vibe that matches your style and personality.
• A smooth experience for your guests, from check-in to farewell hugs.
• Beautiful, unique wedding spaces that feel just right.
• Delicious food, fun excursions, and five-star service worth raving about.

The wrong resort? It can lead to stress, extra expenses, and a wedding that doesn’t feel like you.

At Romance Travel Group, we spend nearly an hour on our first call with each couple. We get to know your style, vision, must-haves, and deal-breakers before we even think about recommending a resort.
Here are a few things we’ll talk about:

• Are you more beachy or bougie?
• Is food and drink a big deal to you?
• Where are you and your guests flying from?
• Have you stayed at an all-inclusive before?
• What’s your dream ceremony venue—beach, rooftop, chapel, garden?

You’re not picking from a generic list. You’re getting hand-picked options that fit you.

Even though we have our favorite resorts, we never assume what’s perfect for one couple will be right for another. This is about finding a resort that fits your needs and your vibe, not ours.
​
That’s why our personalized resort matching process is so powerful. You’ll get 8-10 curated recommendations from resorts we’ve personally visited and trust - resorts that align with your budget, guest count, and wedding goals.

Our mission at Romance Travel Group is simple: to replace your planning stress with excitement and confidence.

You don’t have to waste hours (or days!) comparing pool photos or second-guessing reviews. With us, you’ll know you’re getting expert advice, backed by years of hands-on experience and real relationships with the top resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean.

Feeling stuck in the sea of options? We’ll help you find your perfect match.

When you think of El Dorado Maroma, one word immediately comes to mind: Beach! Renowned for being home to one of the top 10 beaches in the world, this boutique-style resort offers genuine hospitality, lush botanical pathways, and an array of culinary delights. It's the perfect retreat for couples and groups yearning to unwind in paradise. Whether you prefer lounging by the blue sea, enjoying a swim-up bar, or embarking on an afternoon catamaran adventure, El Dorado Maroma has something for everyone.

​Location
 
Nestled about 40 minutes south of Cancun Airport, El Dorado Maroma welcomes you with powdery white sands and a serene, teal sea that stretches across an expansive beach. For those looking to explore beyond the resort, Playa del Carmen is just a half-hour drive away. However, with a plethora of activities available on-site, you may find it hard to leave this coastal haven.
 
Activities
 
Despite its tranquil ambiance, El Dorado Maroma offers endless activities. Chill at the beach? Meet you there. Play music trivia in the main pool while sitting at the swim up bar? Be right over. Relax and unwind at the spa? Four appointments, please! Or the adjacent Marina Maroma is where you can venture into those calm waters and hop on an afternoon catamaran ride complete with snorkeling, or set sail for a dreamy and romantic sunset catamaran cruise, jet off on a wave-runner, or parasail and take in all the views from above. If you prefer to stay on land, sign up for an exciting camel caravan expedition. Or a quick 15-minute transfer away, you can also experience their Ecotourism Ranch that offers a peaceful day of connecting with horses and cenote swimming. All these activities are part of the resort's ‘More Inclusive’ concept, and the concierge can help you plan your excursions. 

​Accommodations
 
El Dorado Maroma feels like a tropical oasis with its multiple buildings, housing less than 100 rooms. Whether you choose a beachfront Hotelito suite, a swim up room along the poolside fun, or an expansive villa (complete with its own private pool big enough for a party no less than 20 guests), you’re sure to settle in quick with these cozy and authentic accommodations. For the ultimate experience, opt for the Over-the-Water Palafitos- the only overwater bungalows in Riviera Maya.  These exclusive suites offer the ultimate view and infinite sea gazing, having direct access to jump into the water as soon as you wake up. Offering glass bottom floors, an outdoor shower, and a private infinity pool with an oversized deck, it’s truly a dream come true.
 
Dining
 
This resort sets a high bar amongst the five restaurants to dine in. The restaurants have rotating schedules and menus, so on your first night speak with the concierge to know your options throughout your stay as reservations are encouraged. However, in any that you choose, you will surely have your tastes met with exquisitely prepared dishes from Italian to Caribbean, Peruvian to Asian. There is no breakfast buffet here, but in any of the three restaurants you find yourself at in the morning, the views will be sure kick-start your day. If you’re a seafood lover, head over to LimaLimon for lunch and order the grilled octopus tacos - one of our many top favorites here. A Mexican Fiesta is offered once a week as well, right on the beach with a vast array of dishes to sample. There are two swim-up bars you can float up to during the day, and at night you will most likely find a spot with your feet in the sand on one of the swings at Papitos beachfront bar listening to live music. After hours, head up to Rick’s bar is the place to be where you can find nightly activities such as pool, games, and a DJ.

It is no secret that destination weddings are continuing to increase in popularity. In fact, nearly 25% of all marriages in the United States begin with a destination wedding. Why is that? Well, they provide a unique blend of intimate ceremony and fun vacation, allowing couples to celebrate with their loved ones in a meaningful and memorable way. They often provide package deals that include the venue, food, drink and entertainment, making it a financially savvy option for a lot of couples. And, honestly, who has the time and patience these days to plan all the details a traditional wedding demands? Many couples take the “I just want to show up and get married!” approach.
 
While many couples know they want to have a destination wedding, the part they struggle with is “where.” We know couples want a destination that is easy to get to and offers a great experience, but it also has to be affordable for guests.

Cancun, a city known for its beautiful resorts and vibrant culture, is a popular choice. Its plethora of resort options accommodate a range of budgets and its ample flight availability makes it easily accessible. Additionally, the warm Mexican hospitality enhances the overall experience for the couple and their guests.

The Fives Oceanfront checks all these boxes and then some. While the resort was built new just a few years ago, it has made a big impact on us and the couples we send there. Maybe it is just the place you’ve been searching for, too?

​Let’s face it. As travel agents, we get to see a lot of different resorts. A big part of being a travel expert requires us to know the ins and outs of a seemingly endless list of properties across the globe. The experts at Romance Travel Group specialize in destination weddings at all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and Caribbean. Because we are so highly specialized, we are able to dive deeper than other agents and really immerse ourselves in the products we recommend and sell.

You’re planning a destination wedding, do you want a travel agent, or a destination wedding travel expert? We thought so. Ok, back to the blog!...

Located 2 blocks outside of the charming village of Puerto Morelos, Fives Oceanfront is a boutique 92-room all-inclusive property situated directly on the beach (we’re talking steps!) facing the Caribbean Sea. Sunrises here are spectacular. The north side of the property faces acres of protected, undisturbed beachfront. The south side leads to town.

The town of Puerto Morelos is a quaint, authentic Mexican village full of small shops, cafes, bars, street vendors, fishing piers, and artisans. Prices are very reasonable in town, locals are friendly and welcoming and the vibe is relaxing and chill. Skip the bustle and expense of Tulum! Puerto Morelos is where it’s at!

The Fives Oceanfront resort itself has a variety of rooms, but our favorite is the One-Bedroom Oceanview Residence. There is plenty of space to sprawl out and the view from the balcony is second to none. Upgrade to a Penthouse and bask in the sun from your private rooftop complete with a hot tub. There are three full-service restaurants serving meals throughout the day and night, and bar service to keep you hydrated.

There are plenty of wedding venue options, but our favorite has to be the private rooftop terrace. Atop the main building sits a pool, deck, bar and restaurant for you to host your destination wedding festivities. With 365 degree views of the ocean and jungle, complete privacy and the ultimate WOW factor for your guests, this venue is a complete stunner.

Why did you choose Romance Travel Group?
After speaking with many other travel agents, Romance Travel Group stood out. Shelli and her team were very responsive and professional throughout the initial consultation and booking process. All information was organized and everyone was so knowledgeable about what different resorts had to offer while keeping our wish list and budget in mind. 

How did you select the resort? What were the deciding factors?
We chose Generations Resort in Riviera Maya because we were looking for a high end resort that was affordable for our guests, within a short driving distance to the airport, family friendly and within our budget. Generations checked off all those boxes and more. What made the resort even better was their countless beautiful wedding venue options and that they had 2 other adult only properties next door that we had access to if we wanted to take a break from the activities on the family side.

What were some of your biggest fears about having a destination wedding? 
It is very hard to plan an event at a location that you have never been to before. We had visited Cancun in the past but never saw Generations in person prior to arriving a few days before the wedding. We were fearful that the pictures and reviews made the resort look much better than it actually was. It was also a little nerve-wracking selecting and booking vendors using email/Facebook to communicate and sending deposits via wire transfers and Paypal but luckily everything worked out perfectly!

Affordable
One of the biggest destination wedding myths we hear often is that it’s too expensive. However, with the traditional American wedding costing around $30,000, it's no wonder most people assume a wedding in a remote location would be more. Luckily, most properties in Mexico can hold a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception for you and your guests for as little as $15,000… which is significantly cheaper than your average wedding!
 
Customizable
Mexico is one of our most popular destinations for brides because of how flexible its wedding packages are. We partner with a variety of properties who value your uniqueness and creativity. That ocean pier ceremony you’ve been dreaming about? Done. The monogrammed dance floor and custom cocktail you requested? You’ve got it. The possibilities are endless.
 
All-Inclusive
Another reason why Mexico is great for destination weddings is the all-inclusiveness. Most properties include meals, drinks, entertainment, and some excursions during your stay, so everyone is taken care of all day and night. We also have a number of properties that offer free wedding packages, which include everything from a private ceremony location, to the cake and DJ.
 
Complimentary Add-Ons
How often do you hear the word “complimentary” associated with planning a wedding? Yeah, not so much. But in Mexico, it’s no surprise to see complimentary sky massages, champagne and strawberries, or private dinners thrown in as a way of saying “congrats” to the happy couple. We’ve even helped our brides and grooms get complimentary honeymoon nights as an added bonus.
 
Easy to Plan
Imagine having all the little details taken care of for you, as you watch your wedding dreams fall into place. That’s right! A destination wedding in Mexico isn’t as hard to plan as you think. In fact, we’ll work with you side-by-side to ensure your day runs as smooth and stress-free as possible. We’ll even introduce you to the onsite wedding coordinator to go over all the fun details like decorations, food, and seating arrangements, so everything’s covered before you get there. The best part? These services are complimentary when you book. Can’t say that about your average wedding, now can you?
