Ten years ago today, I had the honor of planning the very first wedding ever hosted at the historic Tobin Center in San Antonio. Millie and her mom were one of the sweetest mother-daughter duos I’ve ever had the joy to work with, and together we created such a beautiful day.

Today, Millie and Luke celebrate 10 years of marriage — childhood sweethearts with a love story that continues to inspire. What a privilege it was to be part of the beginning of their forever.

🚫 Avoid This Mistake: Letting Guests Book Outside the Room Block

It may not seem like a big deal, but it can seriously mess with your timeline—and your sanity. Here’s why:

You won’t know who’s actually coming
Your headcount stays uncertain
Finalizing decor, rentals, & timelines gets delayed
Guests might miss important updates—or overpay
Keep things simple: use a group block. Your future self will thank you 💍

💕 Share this with your maid of honor or planning partner!

Hyatt Vivid Grand Island Room Tour

Just wrapped up an incredible birthday celebration for 21 guests at Hyatt Vivid Grand Island, a brand new adults-only all-inclusive resort right in Cancun! 🎉

This resort has so much going for it:

Just a short ride from the airport
Beautiful bay or golf course views from every room
Compact and easy to get around (no long walks!)
Upgraded Vantage Club rooms = access to a gorgeous rooftop pool with amazing views 🌅
It’s ideal for couples, adult friend groups, or milestone celebrations. If you’re dreaming of a fun, upscale escape to Cancun—this one’s a must-see.

📍Have questions about planning a group trip or birthday getaway? Let me know—I’d love to help!

✨ Real Wedding Feature: Mariel & Kyle at Valentin Imperial ✨

These two met at a destination wedding, so naturally, they wanted their own to be bold, beautiful, and unforgettable—and it was exactly that.

🌺 A vibrant, boho-inspired color palette
💒 A beachfront ceremony framed by tropical blooms
🎺 A mariachi-led processional that had everyone smiling
🚤 And instead of a typical welcome party, they hosted a private sunset cruise. Not your average destination wedding weekend!

This wedding was packed with heart, color, and incredible details.

Dreaming of a wedding in Mexico? 🇲🇽 Before you book your dream resort, read this 👇

✨ These are the 3 most common mistakes I see couples make when booking their destination wedding in Mexico—and yes, even the most organized brides can overlook them.

💍 If you’re planning a wedding at Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya (or ANY all-inclusive resort), these are questions you must ask:

🔹 Can your guests actually afford to get there?
🔹 What’s the weather backup plan?
🔹 Are there hidden vendor fees you haven’t seen yet?

As a destination wedding planner specializing in luxury weddings in Mexico, I help couples navigate these details every day—so you can focus on the fun, not the fine print.

📍Valentin is one of my favorite resorts for adults-only weddings in the Riviera Maya, and I’ve helped over 500 guests celebrate there in the past 2 years alone.

Valentin Beach Wedding Pro Tip 💫

The beach at Valentin is stunning—one of my favorite ceremony spots!

But… the pathway to get there can be tricky to walk on in anything other than bare feet 👣or flip-flops 🩴. I’ve walked it many times during site visits, and trust me—it’s a challenging walk...

That’s why, when I’m working with couples getting married on the beach at Valentin, we always line the pathway with mats to make the walk more comfortable for guests.

From there, couples have a few fun options:

💫Continue the mats up the aisle and altar area
💫Upgrade to a wooden walkway for a more structured feel
💫Or, go bold like one of my past couples who used an all-white aisle — it looked incredible with her formal black-and-white dress code!

This can make a big difference for your guests and elevate the whole look of your ceremony. 🌴💍
