Message From Couple
Hi everyone! We hope you all are able to make it to Mexico on October 24-October 27, 2024 for a special weekend. Here are a few important notes from us:
PLEASE BOOK ROOMS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THERE IS NO ROOM BLOCK SO ROOMS ARE NOT GUARANTEED.
----RESORT ACCOMMODATIONS----
PLEASE MAKE YOUR ROOM RESERVATIONS THROUGH OUR WEDDING WEBSITE. Do not book directly through the Resort website, or there will be an additional $100/pp to attend the wedding. To make a reservation, go to the "Book Now" tab.
There are three sections of the resort: Grand Palladium, TRS Coral Hotel, and Family Section. We will be staying in the Grand Palladium, but feel free to stay in another section if you please. TRS Coral Hotel is the Adult-Only section.
Room reservations must be made by September 25th.
----PRICE MATCH----
Destify will PRICE MATCH with Expedia.com, Orbitz.com, Priceline.com, Hotels.com, Cheapcaribbean.com, Travelocity.com, and the Resort Website if you’ve found a lower room rate than that what is offered through our website.
Steps to Price Match:
Step 1: Create your reservation through this wedding website and submit your deposit.

----TRAVEL----
Cancun International Airport (CUN) will be the closest and most convenient international airport to book flights.
When booking a room, you will be asked if you will require transportation to and from the airport. We STRONGLY RECOMMEND choosing a transportation option. **If not, please know Uber/Lyft will NOT pick you up from the CUN airport, and average prices if you take a taxi are USD $85-100 per trip**
DON’T FORGET to add flight information at https://app.destify.com using log-in information for the account you created at the time of booking if a transportation option is chosen. If you do not provide flight information, your transportation may be canceled.
~~Feel free to reach out to Drew or Amanda for any questions~~
About Us
It all started when we both joined the same kickball team in Baltimore (shoutout VOLO kickball) during COVID times in September 2020. Somehow it took until the last game of the season for us to finally meet. Amanda reached out to a mutual friend to ask about Drew, and less than a week later we went on our first date at Barcocina in Fells Point. We talked for hours on that first date, long enough that it wasn't until we saw the servers putting the chairs up on tables that we realized how long we had been there. About a month later, we were officially dating.
We took our first trip together in November 2020 to San Francisco and Lake Tahoe. It was such a special trip for us. We both admitted later on that we fell in love with each other on that trip, although we both didn't say those three words until the following February. In the fall of 2021, we decided to move to Saint Petersburg, Florida together where we have been living ever since.
Fast forward to July 2023, Drew got down on one knee back at the same place we had our first date 3 years ago. We had some of our closest friends and family to witness and celebrate the special moment with us.

Accommodations
Costa Mujeres
Grand Palladium Costa Mujeres
This is the perfect wedding destination for any couple. You can walk on the lengthy and powdery-white beaches, or just relax next to the clear, turquoise-blue waters. Throughout the hotel grounds you will find beautiful flowers and foliage to decorate the area. This resort is unique and offers many walkways that are over lagoons, so your experience will be unforgettable. At Grand Palladium, you can stay at one and play at three, so you have 13 bars, 13 restaurants, 4 gorgeous pools, 4 Jacuzzis, and 5 swim-up bars to choose from. Play a game of beach volleyball, try your hand at mini-golf, or just relax on the beach and soak up the sun. Grand Palladium has it all!
