Why I Chose a Destination Wedding and How It Actually Made Planning Easier by Barefoot Bride Luciana Herrera

When I first started thinking about what kind of wedding I wanted, I knew I didn’t want something stressful or complicated. A destination wedding just felt right because I wanted everyone to enjoy a vacation while celebrating with us. What I didn’t expect was how much easier it would make the whole planning process. Once we picked Grand Palladium Costa Mujeres, everything started coming together naturally.

I didn’t hire a traditional wedding planner, which I know sounds crazy to some people, but I honestly didn’t feel like I needed one. The resort gave me a coordinator who stepped in about three months before the wedding, and she helped me finalize details on the resort side. And then there was Barefoot Bridal, who took care of the travel part. Even though they don’t act as planners, they know so much about destination wedding logistics that I felt supported the whole way through.

In the end, going the destination route wasn’t just beautiful, it was truly less stressful than planning something local. I got to enjoy the process instead of getting buried in a hundred little decisions. If you’re on the fence about doing a destination wedding, I really think it’s worth considering.
