Group Reservations
  • Often these rates are higher than Destination Weddings negotiated wholesale rates
  • Requires a signed contract*
  • Requires a deposit for each room at the time of signing the contract*
  • Contract usually has cancellation penalties*
  • Contract usually has financial penalties if all contracted rooms are not utilized*
  • Usually recommended if your wedding is over a holiday or school vacation timeframe
  • Usually recommended if your wedding is at a small resort that may become sold out prior to all of your guests reserving their rooms
  • Should some guests deviate from the contracted block (dates) they may be required to pay a deviation fee, i.e. you contract for rooms Friday to Monday, guests want to go Thursday to Monday
  • Your guests that do not book through Destination Weddings, or choose to stay at a nearby resort, will not be counted towards your contracted commitment
Destination Weddings Wholesale Rates
  • Not recommended for weddings over holidays or school vacation timeframe
  • Not recommended for weddings at small resorts that may become sold out prior to all of your guests reserving their rooms
  • Does not require a signed contract
  • Does not require an upfront financial commitment
  • Will not incur financial risk because there is no minimum number of rooms required
  • Best way to go when using Destination Weddings 'Save The Date' email cards to encourage guests early booking
  • Allows total flexibility for guests travel dates
  • Less stressful
* Required by Resort / Hotel / Wholesaler

The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.

Making the decision to have a child-it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.

The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom.

To understand a mother's love, bear your own children.

Mother is the name for God on the lips& in the hearts of little children.

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us when troubles thicken around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.

Mrs. M and loving it!!!
