Elevating Destination Wedding Experiences: The WPIC Certification Impact

As the sun dips below the horizon, casting a golden glow over the pristine beaches of Punta Cana, there’s an air of excitement at the Majestic Resorts. Recently, Danielle Andrews, Co-founder of The Wedding Planners Institute of Canada (WPIC), graced the shores of this exquisite destination to impart invaluable knowledge and certify the on-site wedding coordinator team. The ripple effect of this certification extends beyond the shores of Punta Cana, as all Wedding Planners at Majestic Resorts in Mexico and the Dominican Republic now proudly bear the WPIC Certified badge.

The significance and importance of having certified wedding planners and coordinators on-site cannot be overstated, especially in the realm of destination weddings. Let’s delve into the myriad benefits that this prestigious certification brings to resorts like Majestic.

WPIC certification serves as a hallmark of professionalism and excellence, reassuring couples that their dream wedding is in capable hands.

Certified wedding planners possess the acumen to tailor each wedding experience to reflect the couple’s vision, ensuring a truly bespoke celebration.

However, certified wedding planners are adept at forging strong relationships with local vendors, streamlining communication, and ensuring seamless collaboration to bring the couple’s vision to life.
