November 29-December 3, 2026
Iberostar Selection Coral Cancún | Cancún, Mexico
Stop Blending In. Become the Advisor Couples Trust.
Most wedding pros think they need more visibility. We believe they need more trust. Visibility might get a couple to your website.
Trust is what gets them to inquire. Trust is what gets them to book. And trust is what makes them stop comparing you to everyone else.
Destination Wedding Authority Live is designed to help you build that trust through real expertise, firsthand resort knowledge, stronger positioning, strategic content, and the confidence to show up as the destination wedding expert your couples are looking for.
When you attend LIVE, you will...
- Master the Iberostar Brand
Go beyond photos and fact sheets. Experience Iberostar resorts, wedding venues, and the Weddings by Iberostar program firsthand so you better understand which couples are the right fit and why. - Build Your Destination Wedding Authority
Learn how to turn your knowledge, experience, and expertise into authority that helps couples see you as the trusted professional they want guiding their destination wedding. -
Create Content That Builds Trust
Capture photos, videos, B-roll, wedding inspiration, and educational content throughout the experience so you return home with marketing assets you can actually use. - Experience a Destination Wedding From the Inside
Experience a Nature of Love mock wedding setup and see the details through the eyes of your future couples while capturing content that brings the experience to life.
4 Amazing Days Focused on Destination Weddings, Authority Building, Resort Experiences & Business Growth
Connect With Fellow Destination Wedding Pros
Build meaningful relationships with other ambitious destination wedding advisors. With time built in to learn, collaborate, create, relax, and share ideas, you'll return home with fresh energy, new connections, and a supportive community cheering you on.
Capture Expert-Level Content in Paradise
Create photos, videos, resort walkthroughs, wedding inspiration, educational clips, B-roll, and lifestyle content throughout the experience. You'll leave with content you can use to build trust long after you return home.
Learn Directly From Weddings by Iberostar
Go behind the scenes with the Weddings by Iberostar team to better understand their wedding philosophy, resort options, venues, Nature of Love program, ideal clients, and what makes their approach unique.

Shift From Travel Advisor to Trusted Authority

A Note From Tami
If you're willing to invest four days in your growth, I’m committed to pouring everything I know into helping you become more confident, more visible, and more trusted as a destination wedding expert.
This experience is about much more than learning another resort brand. It's about seeing yourself differently.
It's about building the knowledge, confidence, content, relationships, and authority that help couples trust you before they ever get on a call with you.
I can't wait to spend these four days learning, creating, connecting, and growing together in Cancún. See you in paradise!
