There’s no reason any couple should have to go through the stress of planning a wedding to experience the happiness and perfection of their big day. Marriott recognizes this is a time when couples should be having fun and enjoying their engagement, anxiously awaiting the day they say, “I do”, so they have designed a new program to make the process seamless for couples planning a destination wedding.



Found throughout eight breathtaking resorts located in the tropics, “Worry-Free Weddings” will assist couples from the moment he pops the question through the post-wedding responsibilities. With several amazing perks, Marriott has carefully compiled this list of offers, sure to cover all aspects of planning a destination wedding, including activities for the rest of the wedding week.

Nuptial Navigator
- Couples can utilize a handy Nuptial Navigator – a detailed checklist/planning timeline distributed as part of the initial collateral exchange. It will include key planning action items and timelines, as well as important information to help navigate the destination itself, including tips on local customs, currency, time zone, electrical current, what to pack, points of interest, etc. Couples will have everything they need to know in advance of their trip.
Tailored Time Together
- The Collection will help make sure that bringing together different families and friends is a fun experience for all. As a way for everyone to bond (or break the ice), Tailored Time Together offers specially designed group excursions, team-building activities, and the opportunity to work together to help the local community through Marriott’s signature Spirit to Serve program. The program is designed to leave guests feeling closer than ever before.
