There are many  advantages to a destination wedding.  A destination wedding is less expensive than a traditional wedding and it doubles  as a great vacation for your friends and family.

Paradise Weddings will assist  you in planning the perfect destination wedding with our extensive knowledge of the world and preferred resorts!

Group Incentives You have an advantage when booking your wedding guests through a group contract.  A group contract will provide you  and your guest’s significant benefits such as room upgrades, complimentary rooms, resort coupons and discounts on  private events! We work with many resorts to get you the best pricing and group benefits that are available to us as a  preferred destination wedding company. With some resorts there may be added benefits such as a private candlelight  dinner for you and your fiancé.   Paradise will keep a record of each guest's travel arrangements, including: arrivals, departures, and itineraries, so that  you always have an  accurate account of each attendee as well as your onsite wedding coordinator that you will be  working with at the resort of your choice.  A destination wedding is the most stress-free, cost efficient and romantic option for any couple!
