It was a pleasure working with them on managing their guest’s travel while Gianna did a wonderful job planning her wedding at Dreams Palm Beach, Punta Cana. Here’s how Gianna & Craig describe their day and their wedding trip – “For all of you lovely future brides and grooms contemplating a destination wedding, my advice for you is simple – DO IT! My husband and I were engaged in Punta Cana, and only saw it fitting that we got married there too! We were married in July 2015 at Dreams Palm Beach Punta Cana. We were put in touch with a wedding coordinator at the resort, and she was absolutely amazing, wonderful, helpful, experienced, and accommodating! She truly made our dreams come true! We contacted The Eventeur to assist in arranging our group travel. Our group was about 30-40 people, and we had no idea where to start. Mahla and her expertise shined brightly for us! She managed every detail that went into getting our group travel organized and booked, leaving it “stress free” for my husband and I. Craig and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!” Gianna & Craig (and now little Gabriela) we wish your lovely family a lifetime of happiness! Thank you for trusting us with your trip of a lifetime. Photography: Julia Eskin – http://www.juliaeskin.com/

Destination Wedding: A Beach Wedding at JellyFish Punta Cana

The Eventeur •

This Persian beach Wedding in Punta Cana’s JellyFish Restaurant was everything beach wedding dreams are made of. It was for this stunning bride that we asked the team at Jellyfish to add a swing to their dance floor. They did at first, and all throughout, think I had lost my mind…”swing? how? why? no!”…after much negotiation they agreed and not only loved the swing so much that they made it a permanent fixture of their venue, but every other venue in Punta Cana followed suit and added a swing to their dance floor permanently. This was the first, but not the last time, that one of my crazy/random/creative ideas became a trademark of a destination. Xx, M

Destination Wedding Venue: Live Aqua Boutique Hotel, Playa Del Carmen

The Eventeur •

The Destination Weddings gods have made all my wishes come true! A boutique, well-located-small-urban-unique-high rise-modern-stylish-ALL INCLUSIVE is born. And believe me when I say, it is the only one of it’s kind. Inside this adults-only hotel is a quiet oasis while the hustle and bustle of downtown Playa Del Carmen is directly outside it’s doors. The hotel holds true to it’s parent, Live Aqua brand’s mission of superior service, quality and cuisine options. The contemporary rooftop location for events offers gorgeous city meets jungle meets sea views. We recommend this hotel for groups looking for a hotel small enough to buy out as well as a central enough option for guests who want to enjoy the shopping and nightlife of Playa Del Carmen.

Destination Wedding Venue: BEL-HA, Riviera Maya, Mexico

The Eventeur •

Her name means beautiful and when I look back at the web of the last few years, Belha stands out in my mind as one of the most beautiful days of all. It was a path-changing day that set the tone for all that was to come. It was the beginning of an everlasting friendship and work partnership with Barb Simkova, whom I cherish more than words. It was also the very first time I worked with our David, who became an invaluable member of The Eventeur, a big part of our success in Mexico, and my friend. As we launch the new site and new blog, there was no doubt in my mind that the first post had to be of beautiful Belha. This glowing white villa designed in Costa Careyes style sits in front of a private white sand beach the local fisherman call home. In every sense of the word, Belha is a retreat. It is private, secluded and luxurious. It is situated right next to hotel Esencia and currently managed by the hotel which gives you access to all the hotel’s amenities while enjoying your own 9000 sqft private estate and private pool. For events, I have yet to find a home as secluded yet photogenic as Belha. The estate can accommodate up to 300 guests beach-side, where the Yucatan jungle dissolves into the pristine sands of Xpu-ha.

Destination Wedding Venue: Casa Violeta – Tulum, Mexico.

The Eventeur •

It used to be that Tulum was simply knows as a Mayan archaeological site with only a few relaxed accommodation options that lined its 7-mile stretch of luscious beach. Sure, Tulum is still small, bohemian, and mystical, but finding lodging options that feel off the grid are rather difficult which makes Casa Violeta that much more of a treat. Tulum has a fascinating and palpable combination of luxury and escape that appeal to a range of creative creatures and well-pocketed new agers, who bring out every shade of yoga mat at dawn. Being located only 80 miles outside of Cancun and tucked away in a romantic haven of its own makes Tulum logistically perfect for group travel and destination weddings. South on the hotel-studded strip and possibly on one of the best stretches of the beach, is the wonderfully relaxed Casa Violeta. Ocean breeze, open air showers, sound of waves and the soothing serenity of an uninterrupted day on its beach is what makes Casa Violeta so luxurious. The luxury is in experiencing Tulum in its true form and all its laid back glory. Unlike some of the other hotels on the strip, Casa Violeta is approachable, quaint and tranquil. It is close enough and within walking distance to all restaurants, but an easy escape with charming beachfront bungalows that pair with their own reserved day beds and a gorgeous yoga studio. Accessibility and safety make this tiny cosmic corner of Mexico the well-travelled couple’s non-inclusive alternative for destination weddings. Privacy, flexibility and a gorgeous indoor option in case of rain, make Casa Violeta the perfect destination wedding venue within Tulum for an intimate, unpretentious ceremony. A venue where a flip flop basket is not required as barefoot is the appropriate code for the party. Choose Casa Violeta for an escape within Tulum for it is truly the perfect place to recharge your batteries and experience this beautiful destination. For more details on Casa Violeta as a wedding venue – we can be reached at 1.844.443.8368.
