My husband and I got married at Secrets Akumal in Riviera Maya, Mexico, in May 2025. I am being 100% honest when I say I could not have done it without Shanna and her team!! They were absolutely incredible. We had so many questions about the process, and they answered every single one with so much knowledge and experience. They helped us plan all of our travel, events of the week, day of timeline, and so much more. Shanna was on site the day of our wedding and was an immense help in making sure everything ran smoothly (and keeping my nerves at bay). I will forever be SO grateful and appreciative of Shanna and the rest of the WorldWide Travel Team.
