Viva Mexico

I can't say enough good things about our destination wedding experience, that we had through Viva Mexico and the Barcelo Palace. If I had the opportunity to do it all over again, a destination wedding would be my choice over and over again! For me a destination was the best choice I ever made in a wedding. It is a beyond stress free experience! And working with Viva Mexico, made it an even smoother transaction. They matched any online pricing (Including internet sites like travelocity, which we found was usually the cheapest) and walked us through the entire experience from beginning to end. Rick was especially attentive to any questions or concerns we had throughout the process and was very quick and easy to communicate with via email, which always seems to be the best form of communication for me. He consistently checked in with me to see if we had any questions before we left, including the night before departure! He was very attentive, you could have sworn we were their only clients! Amazing service, and much appreciated by a bride-to-be! We had a little hiccup with the flights changing on us about 7 months before departure, but Rick was able to get in contact with the MLT Vacation Reps and sort that out for us in just a day or two. I can't imagine having to have had to sort that issue out myself if we had booked through a travel site like Travelocity. So, I was very thankful that we chose Viva Mexico! Rick was also the one who suggested the Barcelo Palace for our Wedding, we had a very wide range of ages that would be attending and it was definitely very accommodating for every one of all ages. The kids loved the waterpark! And the adults loved the all-inclusive drinks! :) The resort was made up of 5 different hotels which were all-inclusive. So, there was plenty of room to roam around during the day and plenty of beach for everyone! Destination weddings I learned, take a lot of patience and faith in the people that you hire to make your dream day become a reality. Luckily, Rick warned me early on that the wedding planners at the Barcelo do over 100 weddings a month and would likely not respond to emails for up to week. Knowing this little bit of information really helped me remain calm in the months before our departure. The two weeks before we left, there was almost constant communication between the planner and myself via email. Looking back at our special day, it seems very crazy to me that our beautiful dream wedding was planned in essentially a week! Again, a lot of faith needs to be had, by fellow destination brides and grooms! But, I do promise you that everything will turn out perfect and even better than expected, when your day comes! I can’t say enough great things about the Viva Mexico guys! I believe that they assisted all 28 people in our party with their reservations, and I have not heard one bad thing from any of them on their experience (Except that they wished that they could have stayed longer!!). Again, my destination wedding experience was a dream come true and I truly owe that to Viva Mexico and the Barcelo Palace!
