What is and is NOT Included?

Your room package includes:

  • Private roundtrip airport transportation between the airport and hotel
  • Hotel accommodations
  • All-inclusive amenities, including meals, snacks, and beverages (alcohol included)
  • All wedding events and activities
  • Daily activities, non-motorized water sports, and evening entertainment (as scheduled)
  • All hotel taxes, fees, and gratuities

Please note, the following services are NOT included:

  • Spa and Salon
  • Excursions
  • Airfare
  • Travel Insurance (a quote is provided once your room is reserved)

How do we book airfare?

While the couple has requested that all guests book their room within the wedding group, you’re welcome to book your own airfare.
We recommend booking flights as early as possible. Most airlines release schedules up to 11 months in advance, and earlier booking usually means better options and pricing. You’re free to book directly with your favorite airline.

A helpful tip: we like using Google Flights to track airfare. You can set up price alerts and be notified whenever fares change. If you have airline miles or credit card points, this is a great time to use them.

Since roundtrip airport transfers are included with your room booking, please be sure to forward your flight details to Jennifer@ChampagneandSunshineVacations.com once booked.  Airfare information should be shared by February 1, 2027.

Prefer help with airfare? I’m happy to assist with flight booking for a service fee—just reach out and we’ll take it from there.


Do you offer travel insurance?

Absolutely. Travel insurance helps protect you from the unexpected and typically costs about 5–10% of your total trip, depending on your age and state. It’s a small add-on that can make a big difference if plans change.
This is especially important for destination weddings, as room block deposits are non-refundable. Once your deposit is paid, it cannot be returned—travel insurance helps protect that investment if something unexpected comes up.
 Here’s why I strongly recommend it:

  • Plans change. If you need to cancel for a covered reason, travel insurance can reimburse prepaid, non-refundable expenses. 
  • Delays happen. Coverage may reimburse eligible meals, hotel stays, and transportation during a covered delay.
  • Medical emergencies abroad. Insurance can help cover medical care while traveling and assist with medical evacuation if needed.
  • 24/7 support. You’ll have access to round-the-clock assistance from travel experts whenever you need help.

You will receive a personalized travel insurance quote within 24–48 hours of paying your room block deposit. For the most comprehensive coverage, insurance must be purchased within 14 days of your deposit.

Do we need a passport?

Every guest will need a valid PASSPORT BOOK to travel. You’ll need it to board your flight and again at resort check-in—this one’s non-negotiable.
Your passport must be valid at least 6 months beyond your return date, so be sure to double-check the expiration date if you already have one.
No passport yet or need to renew? Don’t wait. Processing times can take longer than expected. Click here to APPLY or RENEW your passport.

One quick note: Do not apply for a passport card. You will need the passport book for this trip. Don’t put this off, your passport is your ticket to Champagne and Sunshine.

Have more questions?

I’m here to help! The fastest way to reach me is by email: Jennifer@ChampagneandSunshineVacations.com. Please allow up to 48 hours for a response.

Business hours: Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM

Before you book, I’ve put together some helpful FAQs that might answer a few of the questions you’re already thinking about. Just click on each question below to open it up and see more details.

Before You Book

Is there a payment plan?

Yes! You don’t have to pay it all at once. Booking early gives you the benefit of a flexible, interest-free payment plan.

A minimum non-refundable deposit of $150 per person is due at the time of booking to secure your room and roundtrip airport transportation. Additional payments can be made at any time by logging into your invoice to authorize charges. All payments must be completed by your final payment date.

To get started, simply submit the booking form and authorize your credit card for the deposit amount due. This authorizes Champagne and Sunshine Vacations, LLC (or our affiliates) to charge your debit or credit card for any amount you choose.

Friendly reminder: If you’re using a debit card, check your bank’s daily spending limit before submitting a large payment as charges over the limit may be declined.

Why book with Champagne and Sunshine Vacations?

The couple has pre-reserved rooms for their wedding group, and by booking through Champagne and Sunshine Vacations, you get all the perks they’ve arranged just for you. It also ensures the group meets the resort’s minimum, unlocking fun surprises, VIP treatment, and priority status.

Here’s what you gain by booking within the group:
  • Access to group rates and special amenities the couple has secured.
  • Priority status at the resort, including protection if the hotel oversells.
  • Full support from me before, during, and after your trip.
  • Automatic inclusion in all group events: no extra fees, no day-pass worries.

Booking outside the group means:
  • You’ll miss group rates and may have to pay in full upfront.
  • You won’t have my support for travel or emergencies.
  • You won’t be officially part of the wedding events and will be charged extra.
  • Off-property guests will have limited access and could require a day pass at an extra cost.

In short: booking with the group keeps everything easy, fun, and stress-free for the bride and groom while ensuring you don’t miss a moment of Champagne and Sunshine.

Time to Celebrate!

LET'S START PLANNING

What started as a simple need to get away quickly snowballed into a full-blown resort obsession for me. At this point, I’ve visited 30+ resorts across the Caribbean and Mexico—and I go back at least six times a year (often with my husband and kids in tow!). I rely on my deep expertise to build dream resort vacations for my clients.

Because I believe the service you get before you arrive at your resort should match the experience you receive once you get there: seamless, personal, ultra-accomodating, and full of that “just let go” kind of feeling.

That’s exactly what I offer. So if you don’t just want a resort escape, but a resort escape that feels tailor-made for you, I invite you to let me take the reins. All you have to do? Pack your best sunnies—and get ready for the time of your life.

I want to give more travelers that kind of escape.

Before founding my agency, I was a teacher for 10 years—it was an incredibly rewarding career, but a high-stress one. For me, travel was a “must” to decompress from my day-to-day … and I quickly found that there was no better place to rest and reset than at a luxury resort!

In fact, that’s the reason behind my agency’s name, Champagne and Sunshine Vacations. Because there’s simply no better feeling than when you first pull up to your resort and staff is waiting there to open your car door, welcome you in, and offer you a cool towel and a cold glass of champagne. It’s at that moment you realize: “I really needed this.”

I know a lot of my clients are just like me—busy to the max, constantly keeping a running tally of what needs to get done tomorrow, or next week, or next month in their heads. From experience, I also know that the only way to turn off the “what’s next?” anxiety is to pack up and head out on a replenishing, stress-free vacation. The kind where the only thing you’re left wondering is: what’s next—a mojito or margarita?
