Welcome! Based on my own research it seemed like a lot of Mexican locations seemed to charge a fortune for the reception dinner per person, even at the all inclusive resorts. Based on that, I'm looking at Jamaica (and because I would prefer a legal ceremony in English). If you don't plan on having a ton of people coming with you, it's probably worth doing Mexico especially given your location. Otherwise, maybe look into an AI in Jamaica. Good luck.

Congrats on your engagement and welcome to the forum! I'm partial to Punta Cana since that's where I'm getting married. There are so many resorts to chose from!! Jamaica is also a great location. Check out the threads and see what catches your eye. Good luck and enjoy your planning!

Hi Angela, you're in the South so the Caribbean is a great place to head for a DW. I'm having mine in Turks & Caicos so of course I am partial to there but I did research a few other islands before deciding on it so if there are any questions I can answer please don't hesitate to ask. (I was also born and raised in the Caribbean and have vacationed on many of the islands growing up and still do today). Happy planning and good luck!
