I DO VERIFIED

The Gold Standard in Destination Wedding Venues

Planning a destination wedding means trusting a venue you’ve never visited with the most important day of your life. That’s a big ask.

I Do Verified removes the guesswork.

Every verified venue has been personally visited, experienced, and vetted by our Travel Ambassadors. When you see the I Do Verified badge, you know immediately: this venue delivers.

What I Do Verified Means for You

Every I Do Verified venue commits to seven essential promises. Not luxury for luxury’s sake — thoughtful preparation that ensures you can relax, celebrate, and enjoy your day.

01 — Your Dedicated Wedding Expert

One experienced coordinator who knows your vision, answers your questions within 24 hours, and handles every detail from booking to your last dance. Not a general manager juggling multiple events — a wedding specialist who genuinely cares about your day.

02 — Beautiful Backup, No Compromises

Dream of an outdoor ceremony? You’ll see photos of both the outdoor space AND the stunning indoor backup before you book. Same capacity, same beauty, clear weather decision plan. If it rains, your Plan B is just as magical.

03 — Your Ceremony, Your Way

Whether you want a symbolic ceremony with a celebrant or legal marriage with full documentation support, the venue has trusted local connections and clear guidance. English-speaking officiants, transparent costs, timelines laid out — no surprises.

04 — Food That Wows Your Guests

Menus you can customize to reflect your taste. A tasting session 2-3 months before so you know exactly what your guests will experience. Professional service. Full bar. Dietary needs handled properly, not as an afterthought. Pricing that’s clear from day one — no hidden charges appearing later.

05 — Your Guests Sorted

On-site rooms or quality nearby hotels within 15 minutes. Room blocks with honest group rates across different budgets. Someone at the venue who helps coordinate guest accommodation. You get early check-in, late check-out, and beautiful getting-ready spaces on your wedding day.

06 — Your Honeymoon Starts Here

Pre-designed honeymoon packages or total flexibility to create your own post-wedding escape. Room upgrades, champagne on arrival, couples’ spa, private dining, local excursions — whatever helps you unwind after the celebration. This isn’t an upsell. It’s the venue understanding you’ll want to decompress before heading home.

07 — No Hidden Surprises

Every cost spelled out clearly. Service charges, taxes, gratuities — all stated upfront. Payment schedules that work with your planning timeline. Outside supplier policies explained from the start. Fair cancellation terms. If something beyond anyone’s control happens, you’re protected.

When you book an I Do Verified venue, you’re not gambling on photos and promises. You’re choosing a venue that’s been held to the highest standards — and proven it delivers.

Why This Matters

Destination wedding planning is overwhelming. You’re making huge decisions about a venue you’ve never seen, in a country you might not know well, with suppliers you’ve never met.

I Do Verified venues have already been vetted for you. Our Travel Ambassadors stayed there, met the team, walked the ceremony spaces, tasted the food, saw the backup plans. They know what works — and what doesn’t.

The I Do Verified badge means:

✓ This venue has been personally experienced by our team

✓ Seven essential standards are guaranteed

✓ The team understands what destination wedding couples need

✓ You can book with confidence, not just hope

Your wedding day is too important to leave to chance. Choose a venue that’s proven it delivers.
