Planning a wedding with 100 or more guests might feel like a tricky task—but with the right destination, it can be one of the easiest (and most exciting) decisions you’ll make. Large destination weddings are on the rise, and it’s easy to see why. Instead of a single evening, you get a full weekend—or even a week—of celebration with the people who matter most, all in one unforgettable setting.

At Destify, we work with resorts that are made for this kind of celebration. These properties know how to host large groups without sacrificing the personalized touches. Think beachfront ballrooms, rooftop cocktail hours, garden gazebo ceremonies, and private group dinners under the stars. Many of them offer professional on-site planners, flexible décor options, and wedding packages that scale beautifully for 100+ guests. And with group perks like free rooms, upgraded amenities, and exclusive event spaces, it’s clear why brides and grooms are jumping at the chance. 

We’ve pulled together some of the best options from some of our top resort partners—including Dreams, Royalton, Hard Rock, Iberostar, Sandos, and Majestic Resorts. No matter if you’re after an adults-only escape, a family-friendly celebration, or something in between, there’s a destination here ready to deliver your dream wedding—regardless of how big your guest list gets.

Why Choose a Destination Wedding for a Big Guest List?

Hosting 100+ guests might sound like a challenge—but for many couples, a destination wedding actually makes things a whole lot easier. When your venue, accommodations, catering, and planning team are all in one place, the stress of coordinating multiple vendors and locations disappears. Instead, you get one streamlined experience, but with a tropical view.

Destination weddings for large groups come with some surprising advantages. First, all-inclusive resorts in particular are built to accommodate crowds. From group check-ins to banquet-sized dining and ceremony spaces, they’re designed for celebrations on a big scale. 

Many resorts also offer dedicated group booking managers, who help coordinate rooms, special requests, and VIP experiences across your entire party.

Then there are the group perks—a huge bonus when you’re bringing 100 guests. Resorts often reward you with benefits like:

  • Free room nights (based on the number of rooms booked)
  • Room upgrades for the couple or family
  • Complimentary cocktail hours or group dinners
  • Private check-ins and welcome receptions
  • Spa discounts or free anniversary nights

And while hosting a wedding at home can sometimes feel like a whirlwind of logistics, a destination wedding stretches your celebration across several days. Welcome drinks, beach parties, group excursions, farewell brunches—it becomes a full experience for everyone involved.

If you’re dreaming of a big fat wedding that still feels personal, relaxed, and memorable, destination weddings make it possible—and all-inclusive resorts make it easy.

What to Look For in Wedding Packages for 100 Guests

When you’re planning a wedding with a big guest list, not just any package will do. The best wedding packages for over 100 guests offer flexibility and thoughtful details that keep the experience smooth for both you and your guests.

Here’s what matters most when choosing the right package for your celebration.

Venue Capacity & Flexibility

Make sure the resort offers multiple ceremony and reception spaces that can comfortably accommodate your group. Beachfront setups, rooftop terraces, garden gazebos, and ballrooms should all be on the table—especially if you’re planning a multi-day event with different vibes.

Private vs. Semi-Private Events

Some resorts include only semi-private dinners in base packages. For 100+ guests, you’ll want a package that offers private cocktail hours and receptions, ideally with included seating, bar service, and décor. Look for options that allow you to upgrade for a more personalized and exclusive experience.

Food & Beverage Service

Feeding a crowd is no small task—but all-inclusive resorts are well-equipped. Make sure your package includes custom catering options, open bar service, and the ability to add enhancements (like signature cocktails or dessert stations). Buffets can be convenient for large groups, but plated dinners bring a more elevated touch.

On-Site Coordination

For weddings this size, having a dedicated planner on-site is non-negotiable. Look for resorts with experienced wedding teams who can manage timelines, vendors, and the flow of your events—so you don’t have to.

Guest Experience

Resorts that cater to destination weddings for large groups should offer plenty of activities for guests of all ages. Think pools, live entertainment, spas, kids’ clubs, and off-site excursions. It’s a celebration for you—but a vacation for them, too.

Tips for Planning a Destination Wedding with 100+ Guests

Planning a destination wedding is exciting—but managing a large guest list adds some extra moving parts. The good news? With the right strategy (and the right partners), you can keep everything organized while still enjoying the process. Here are our top tips for pulling off a seamless, joyful event with 100 guests or more.

1. Start Planning Early

For weddings of this size, the earlier you begin, the better. Resorts that can accommodate large groups book out quickly—especially during peak travel seasons. We recommend securing your date 12–18 months in advance to get the venues, group rates, and room blocks you want.

2. Lean on Your Resort’s Wedding Coordinator

When you book through Destify, you’ll be paired with both a travel expert and an on-site wedding coordinator who know your resort inside and out. Let them handle the logistics—vendor scheduling, ceremony setup, welcome events—so you can focus on the fun stuff.

3. Use Group Booking Incentives to Your Advantage

Many resorts offer perks for large groups, such as:

  • Free room nights
  • Private events (welcome parties, farewell brunches)
  • Room upgrades
  • Spa credits
  • Free wedding packages based on total rooms booked

Ask your Destify advisor how to maximize these benefits based on your estimated guest count.

4. Communicate Clearly with Guests

When you’re inviting 100+ people, the key to a smooth experience is clear communication. 

We suggest:

  • Sending Save-the-Dates 12+ months out
  • Launching a wedding website with travel info, resort links, and FAQs
  • Working with Destify’s group travel experts to help guests book

5. Build in Downtime

A destination wedding is an overall experience, not just a singular event. Between the welcome cocktails, rehearsal dinner, and ceremony, leave some free time for guests to relax, explore, or hit the spa. It makes your celebration feel like a vacation—because everyone deserves some R&R. 

6. Think Beyond the Ceremony

Big weddings deserve big moments. Many couples choose to add:

  • Catamaran cruises
  • Beach bonfire nights
  • Pool parties
  • Group excursions (zip-lining, cenotes, snorkeling)

These shared experiences create lasting memories and bring your guests closer together.
