A Western Caribbean Wedding at Sea aboard Icon of the Seas
I architect every layer of the destination wedding journey. This sample Mediterranean sailing illustrates how I manage everything from the initial cabin block to the shore excursions to ensure your guests arrive, celebrate, and depart with ease.
Before stepping onto the ship, the celebration begins on land. The night prior to embarkation sets the tone for everything ahead.
Guests check into a curated room block at a Fora-preferred property in Miami. Exclusive perks include daily breakfast, VIP room upgrades, and a property credit applied at check-in.
Private vehicles await guests at MIA to bypass the taxi queues, ensuring a smooth and seamless transition immediately upon landing.
A welcome dinner or rooftop cocktail hour for the group to connect, celebrate, and toast to the days ahead before boarding tomorrow.
On embarkation morning, a coordinated fleet of private vehicles departs from the hotel, arriving exactly within the designated boarding window at PortMiami.
Guest luggage is securely transported from hotel checkout directly to stateroom delivery, allowing everyone to move through the port completely hands-free.
Custom welcome kits, branded itineraries, and curated amenities await inside guests' staterooms the moment they board.
7 Nights in the Western Caribbean
Departing from Miami aboard Icon of the Seas. A 7-night itinerary that takes your guests through Mexico, Honduras, and the Bahamas, with the ceremony taking place at sea on day two.
| Day | Port | Experience |
|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | Miami, Florida | Embarkation day. Welcome reception onboard. Pre-sailing welcome kit in every stateroom. |
| Day 2 | At Sea | Wedding ceremony in Central Park. Private reception to follow. Couple's dinner at specialty restaurant. |
| Day 3 | Costa Maya, Mexico | Private group excursion to the Mayan ruins at Chacchoben. Cultural tour followed by a beach club afternoon. |
| Day 4 | Cozumel, Mexico | Private snorkel or dive excursion along the Mesoamerican Reef. Optional catamaran for the group with open bar and lunch onboard. |
| Day 5 | Roatan, Honduras | Private island beach club day. Cabanas reserved for the group, with snorkeling, paddleboarding, and a curated lunch arranged. |
| Day 6 | At Sea | Full day at sea. Couple's spa morning. Group activity or poolside gathering arranged onboard. |
| Day 7 | Perfect Day at CocoCay | Private island day. Beach club access, cabanas, and water experiences arranged for the group. Farewell dinner onboard that evening. |
| Day 8 | Miami, Florida | Disembarkation. Guest transfers to MIA coordinated. The newlyweds depart separately for Phase III. |
Disembarkation marks the shift from a collective celebration to a private retreat. While the group heads home, the journey for two is just beginning.
While guests are transferred to MIA for their flights home, a private car transfers the newlyweds directly to The Setai Miami Beach. Forbes Five-Star 2026. Three infinity pools, a world-class spa, and a quiet stretch of oceanfront that feels nothing like the ship they just left. Check-in is waiting. The group logistics conclude here.
Settle in and enjoy. The Setai is designed for exactly this — unhurried mornings, spa afternoons, and dinners that go as long as you want them to. When it is time to head back, a final private transfer takes you to MIA, with a coordinated car service waiting to bring you directly to your doorstep upon arrival home.
You and your planner design the day. I design everything that surrounds it.
