Ask the expert: Interview with a destination wedding bride

When planning a destination wedding, you want the most recent, most current, most expert and most inspiring information. There is no better person to ask than a newlywed bride. We ask all our newlyweds to let us know about their experience getting married at Villa la Joya and we adore our collection of love stories. Stephanie replied with great answers to common wedding planning questions, here’s a quickfire Q & A with a destination wedding bride:

Why did you choose Riviera Maya, Mexico for your destination wedding?

We initially planned to go to Indonesia where my family is from but when COVID happened Americans had a hard time being allowed in. We were engaged in Playa del Carmen and loved it…so we decided to come back and get married there.

What made you decide on Villa La Joya and the Villa Planners team?

Villa la Joya is GORGEOUS! And I loved my initial conversation with Mike. I also appreciated his open faith. Villa Planners were recommended by Mike.

What was your Riviera Maya destination wedding theme or inspiration?

I love white flowers so that was a thing and black and champagne were the colors we chose. We wanted it to be classy but fun.

What was your favorite/most emotional or funniest moment of your wedding day?

I loved dancing the night away. I think I left the dance floor once for a very brief moment. But the whole day was amazing.

Anything you would have done differently on your wedding day?

Remembered my bouquet when walking down the aisle.

Any advice you’d like to share with other brides planning a destination wedding?

Do your best to enjoy every moment and go with the flow. Take moments here and there to look around and take it all in.
