How did Destify help you choose the perfect destination and resort for your wedding?

We originally booked a local venue in Maryland—but deep down, we knew that wasn’t the wedding we truly wanted. We dreamed of saying “I do” on a beach, surrounded by our closest friends and family. So, we made the bold decision to cancel our venue and forfeit our deposit… just to chase the wedding we knew we deserved.

We sent a request to Destify, and from that moment on, everything changed. Kiki Mazo was absolutely amazing—she helped us explore options and land on the perfect location. Then, Candyce Roa, our Destify guru, stepped in and truly became our rock. She handled all the travel logistics, fielded every question (big, small, and occasionally frantic), and even called me when she knew I was frazzled just to offer reassurance and clarity. She was patient, understanding, and such a bright light throughout the entire process. Destify didn’t just help us plan a destination wedding—they helped us rewrite our story.

What was your favorite wedding moment with your spouse?

We chose not to do a first look because we wanted that moment at the altar to be real and raw. Standing across from each other, locking eyes with the ocean behind us and all our loved ones around, felt like time stopped. That moment held all the emotion, anticipation, and love, and it’s something we’ll never forget.

What was your favorite experience at the wedding?

Honestly, the view. Whether during the ceremony at the Sky Wedding Gazebo or dancing at the Sky Lounge, being surrounded by the endless blue ocean and open sky made everything feel surreal. Nature showed up as a VIP guest and blessed the whole day, wrapping every memory in a stunning backdrop.

How was the experience for your guests, and what did they enjoy most about the wedding and destination?

Our guests had a blast. What really stood out was how amazing it felt to spend uninterrupted time with friends and family outside the usual hustle. Everyone was relaxed, present, and able to celebrate without distractions. The destination created a beautiful bubble where we all connected, laughed, and made memories that went beyond the wedding day.

Looking back, what would you say to couples considering a destination wedding with Destify?

Don’t hesitate—just do it. If you’re on the fence, take this as your sign. Destify made the entire process smooth, fun, and actually enjoyable. We got the wedding of our dreams and an unforgettable vacation with the people we love most. No stress, no regrets—just sunshine, love, and memories that last forever.

How was your ceremony, and did you have a reception? Where was your reception?

Our ceremony was beautiful—intimate and heartfelt, set against the stunning backdrop of the Sky Wedding Gazebo. Afterward, we moved to a private reception at the Sky Lounge, where the party came alive. With a DJ spinning great tunes and a delicious buffet-style dinner, everyone danced the night away surrounded by pure love and laughter.

What did you love most about getting married at your resort?

We loved so much about Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres, but what made it truly unforgettable was being in Mexico—the bride’s favorite place—while celebrating our love. Since it was his first time visiting, sharing this special destination with my best friend made everything feel even more incredible. It was like combining a dream vacation with the most important day of our lives, surrounded by breathtaking beauty and loved ones.

How did the amenities at your resort make your wedding week special?

The resort upgraded our room to an ocean-view suite, which was phenomenal. We both love the water, so having a private balcony and jacuzzi overlooking the endless blue made the entire week feel like a dream. It was the perfect place to relax, soak it all in, and celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime moment in pure bliss.

What features of your resort made your ceremony or reception memorable?

While the stunning backdrop set the perfect scene, what truly made our ceremony and reception unforgettable was the exceptional service. From the reception staff and bartenders to guest services, our wedding coordinator, and photographer—everyone was friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond to make sure every detail was flawless. Their warmth and professionalism made the entire experience smooth, joyful, and truly special.

How did you feel about planning a destination wedding at first, and in what ways did our team help simplify the process and bring your vision to life?

We had reservations at first—cancelling our local venue and forfeiting the deposit wasn’t easy, and we knew some family and friends couldn’t make the trip. But from the moment we connected with Kiki and Candyce, the process became so much easier. They took away the fear and uncertainty and made planning fun. Their guidance helped bring our vision to life in ways we never imagined.

Knowing what you know, would you do a destination wedding again?

Absolutely—without a doubt. The experience was everything we dreamed of and more. From the stunning location to the seamless planning, we wouldn’t change a thing and would do it all again in a heartbeat.
