Finding the right location and resort for an Indian wedding in Mexico or the Caribbean isn’t always easy as there are many options but not all resorts have the same level of experience with Indians weddings or the quality of amenities. That’s why Shivani and Alpesh turned to us at Indian Destination Wedding.
We took them through our signature Resort Match Finder process, taking into account their tastes, vision for their wedding, budget and other factors. Once we found their resort, we made the process of booking the travel for them and their guests easier by creating a webpage to streamline the process. We were also available to answer questions and offer guidance before, during and after the wedding.
