Finding the Right Destination Wedding Travel Agent
With a resurgence in destination weddings, travel agents are a great resource for couples as they plan their wedding-travel-related logistics. They’re well-connected to resort wedding teams, experienced in a destination’s marriage requirements and can provide insights on everything from service to food to activities. They also can help negotiate perks and pricing and coordinate travel arrangements for guests.
When choosing an All-Inclusive Destination Wedding Travel Agent to help you with your destination wedding, be sure you interview them thoroughly. A good travel agent will want to understand your vision for your wedding and be able to translate that into an unforgettable trip. Ask for photos, videos and testimonials from their past clients. This will allow you to gauge their reliability and service quality.

Lastly, lean towards agents who specialize in destination weddings. Just like a cardiologist would be better than a general practitioner for someone with a heart condition, a wedding specialist is honed in on the industry, the resorts and your expectations.
Ask the Agent About Group Contracts
As you’re assessing an agent, consider how much of your dream wedding they’ve helped plan so far. Have they worked with your specific preferred resorts? If so, what is their experience with securing group space and room blocks? This is a big part of the planning process because a reservation booked in a group block has different terms and conditions than one that’s purchased individually. If an agent doesn’t understand the nuances of booking large groups, that’s a red flag.
