Paradisus Playa Del Carmen
Cancun, Mexico
Woohoo!! Pack your bags we’re going to Cancun, Mexico!!
We are so very excited to have you join us for our wedding week[end]. We’ve chosen to stay at Paradisus Playa del Carmen and we strongly encourage you to stay with us!
To keep things simple for everyone, we’ve hired a groups travel agent - Allison Slater of Tailored Travel Experiences to help all of our guests arrange accommodations. She’s already secured special event group discounted rates for us at this resort.
Hi there! Ivey and Steven have pre-reserved rooms for you with a special, set group rate for the travel window of November 5-12, 2025.
Guests may extend their stay, pending availability - just include that request in your reservation form if you’d like to extend your stay beyond these dates, or email Allison with your specific date & room request. (allison@ttravelex.com)
Please note that the resort requires a 3 night minimum stay for all guests.
If you’ve discussed your travel plans with family and friends, you’re ready to make a deposit and reserve your room! The room deposit of $200 per person is due on May 7, 2025, plus the cost of your chosen insurance plan (optional). This reservation will serve as your official RSVP.
Final room payments are due by July 23, 2025.
Steven and Ivey are working with me, Allison, of Tailored Travel Experiences to make this trip fun and stress-free for you! Please read all of the important information below before completing the reservation form at the bottom of this page so you can join them for their big day!
Keep an eye out for emails from me after you’ve booked your stay. I’ll be emailing reminders, updates, important travel information, and final travel documents between now and the wedding, all from the email address: allison@ttravelex.com (it’s a good idea to ‘whitelist’ my email address by adding me to your contacts)
We’re SO glad you’re going to join Ivey and Steven for their beautiful wedding in Mexico!
No, this resort is not adults-only, BUT there are some sections of the resort that are adults-only.
Child Prices:
Kids aged 0-4 at the time of travel will cost only $100 - yay!
Kids aged 5-12 will have their own prices, listed by room.
Anyone 13 or older will be considered an adult, and will need to pay adult prices.
Child Services:
Fortunately, there are some great areas for kids, and plenty of fun things to do! In addition to the family-friendly rooms, there is a Kids Club that offers supervision and many exciting activities for your children!
Minimum stay is 3 nights.
The maximum number of nights with this discounted rate is typically 5 nights, but if you wish to stay longer, just contact me! I’ll be happy to help make your longer stay happen. Kindly note that 6+ night stays, or stays that fall outside of our specific date range of discounted rates (November 5-10. 2025) will be subject to resort availability and the prevailing rates.
We recommend arriving no later than November 6, 2025 - the day before the wedding. In the case of any travel issues or delays, it would truly stink to miss Ivey & Steven's big day! Arriving earlier is even better!
As long as you check in at least the day before the wedding, are present for the wedding itself, and hit the 3 night minimum requirement, you’re good to go!
If you wish to come earlier or stay later, that’s no problem at all. Just include your requested dates of stay and chosen room category in an email to me (Allison), and I’ll confirm availability with the resort and let you know! Just keep in mind that dates outside the room block may have different rates than the group rates listed for our date range below.
A reserved room block means that Ivey and Steven have paid a deposit to pre-reserve rooms on your behalf of your group. They’ve signed a contract with the resort, and they’ve committed to filling a minimum number of rooms.
ONLY rooms booked with Tailored Travel Experiences will count toward this contract and the couple’s group block.
The resort has a minimum 3 night stay within these dates, but you can absolutely come earlier or stay later, as long as there’s resort availability.
We have reserved several different room types or room categories for you to choose from, which you can see below this FAQ.
A non-refundable deposit of $200 per person is due by May 7, 2025. This deposit will serve as your official RSVP and will go toward the total cost of your reservation.
Please note that all deposits are non-refundable unless you purchase insurance at the time of deposit.
If you do purchase insurance, it will be your responsibility to file a claim and await their decision, should you wish to try for a refund later on. And note that the travel insurance company makes all decisions about claims and refunds; neither Allison nor Tailored Travel Experiences has any say in these decisions.
Yes! When you book your room, your balance will be split into two due dates:
First, your deposit will be due upon receipt of your invoice, which must be no later than May 7, 2025 (though booking ASAP will help you get the room category you really want!)
Finally, your Final Balance will be due by July 23, 2025.
While those hard deadlines are in place, you are welcome to make a payment absolutely anytime by filling out the form HERE: Make A Payment.
(this link will also be in your invoice, and can be found in the main menu of this website)
Please note that late payments may result in late fees or full cancellation of your reservation. Please see the terms and conditions on your invoice for more details.
Steven & Ivey reserved 38 rooms for the group, but only certain numbers of each category you see below.
In order to get the room category you really want, we suggest making a deposit ASAP!! Once our allotted rooms sell out, we may not be able to secure any more in that category or at this rate. (based on resort availability and prevailing rates).
If you have any specific requests or wishes (certain rooms, specific dates, etc.), we suggest that you make your deposit as soon as possible!
We highly encourage you to stay at this resort with Steven and Ivey. All wedding activities will take place at this resort, and the whole group will be around for a week[end] of fun!
If you stay elsewhere, you will have to pay for a day pass or wedding pass to visit the resort just for the wedding, starting at $125. Those wedding passes are subject to availability, and we would hate for you to miss out on the wedding! Additionally, some resorts have started implementing a no-outside-guests-for-weddings policy; and it’s possible that our resort will implement such a policy between now and our wedding date.
To play it safe (and have the most fun!), we recommend staying on-site!
Please book your own flights to Cancun International Airport - (CUN). Flights costs are NOT included in the reservation you’ll make here with Tailored Travel Experiences.
We encourage you to use any credit card points, airline miles, or your favorite booking method for flights so you can get the best itinerary and the best deal possible.
Allison will arrange your transportation to and from the airport. Just be sure to add transfers to your reservation, and to submit your flight information by or before September 24, 2025.
To submit your flight information, just FORWARD your flight confirmation email to allison@ttravelex.com. Please do NOT send screenshots or pieces of the reservation. We need many details in the email, including your confirmation number and connecting flight information in order to arrange your ground transportation and track your flights.
