Some 5 years ago an Idahoan met an Ohioan (not an Iowan.)  Soon thereafter Ida OH was born. Since then, Ida OH has braved the steep, rocky slopes of Seven Devils; snorkeled in the Florida Keys; picked coconuts on the Road to Hana; basked in the sun on Playa Norte in Isla Mujeres; watched a sheep get sheered in the rolling hills of Ireland; and watched the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace, to name a few.  Ida OH’s many adventures over the past five years have led to one conclusion….we need more. 

Accordingly, we are excited for you to join us for Ida OH’s next adventure at Dreams Natura all-inclusive resort in Cancun to celebrate with us. While we will need but a few minutes of your time to witness our vows of eternal commitment to each other, the remainder of the time will be dedicated to making memories (@ida_oh_2023) and drinking tequila, and probably not in that order.  We can’t wait to share this special time with all of you.

Love,

Ron and Linda

Linda & Ron are very much looking forward to spending time with you in Riviera Cancun, Mexico.

You'll be flying into the Cancun airport. The airport code is CUN. 

At Bliss Honeymoons, we have access to both the same published fares that you see online as well as contracted rates.

Given the challenges in the airline industry, we encourage you to book your flights directly with the airline. If you want to discuss your flights more or want us to send you specific flight suggestions, please select this option on your RSVP form.

Please submit your flight details, including your confirmation number, no less than 45 days before departure. Your reservation includes airport transfers, but we cannot book your transfers without your flight details. 

Make sure to book your flights for the same days as your hotel reservation. If you plan to extend your stay at a different resort, please let us know so we can book your transfers accordingly.

Here are some tips when booking flights:

• Direct flights ensure more seamless and less stressful travel so consider booking a direct flight, even if it is a little more expensive.
• If you do have to book a flight with a layover, please pay close attention to the layover times. Airlines are notorious for allowing short layovers with a very high likelihood of missing the connection. While no one wants to sit around the airport for hours, you also don’t want the headache of missing your layover because of a short connection. We suggest choosing a schedule that has at least 1.5 hours for your layover on the way to your destination. On your way home, we suggest at least 2 hours to give extra time to get through immigration.
• Pick an arriving flight as early in the day as you prefer so that you have more time at your destination.
• For your returning flight, the ground transportation company will often pick you up four to five hours before your flight time, so pick as late a departing flight as your schedule allows
• Some airlines provide tickets that can be changed or canceled without a fee. This costs more upfront but can be helpful in these uncertain times.

Baggage Fees:  Baggage fees are not included and must be paid directly to the airline. Please refer to the airline’s website for charges. If you have a TSA precheck number or frequent flyer number, you will add it to your reservation directly through the airline’s website.

Please note! It’s not uncommon for your first and middle name to appear as one long name on the airline’s website. If this happens, don’t panic! Just check in as you normally would.

Have more flight questions? Check out our FAQs here. 

Round trip transportation from the airport is included in the package. Once you have cleared customs and collected your bags, please proceed outside to the shuttle area. Please do not stop inside the terminal and accept assistance from another party. The parties inside the airport are timeshare salespeople.

Your transfers are shared, non-stop transfers. If you prefer private transfers, they are available for $160.00, round trip.

Once you have exited the terminal look for the Lomas Rep. They will be wearing a blue shirt, white pants, and holding a sign for Lomas.

Please note: Car seats are required just as they are at home. They are $30.00 round trip. Please let us know when you make your reservation if you need a car seat.

If you’re attending a destination wedding, chances are you’re booking several months in advance. While we’re sure you have every intention of making the trip, life can be unpredictable. The months between the deposit and your anticipated date of travel could bring a job change, illness, or other circumstances that could prevent you from traveling. Purchasing travel insurance is a smart investment that will protect you from financial loss.  

And because most medical insurance policies do not offer coverage outside the United States, we do not recommend traveling without insurance. Our trip insurance covers trip delay, trip cancellation, some medical coverage, lost luggage, and more. Our insurance allows you to cancel for any covered reason and receive a full refund, even on non-refundable published airfare. Uncovered reasons are covered up to 75%. Review the policy for more details here. Insurance is just $149.00 per person.

If you book your air independently, we do offer a policy that will cover both your land and air. Please ask us for more info.

PAYMENT AND CANCELLATION POLICY

The cost of the trip is not refundable. We urge you to purchase trip insurance to protect you from a financial loss.

Please note! Once final payment has been made, there are no refunds issued for a reduction in the number of nights, room category, or the number of people in your party. If you have trip insurance, we can file a claim for any reductions. This may incur a change fee.

Penalties apply to all bookings. However, if you have travel insurance you can recoup these losses by filing a claim with the travel insurance.

Please note! The cost of insurance is not refundable for any reason.

Still think you don't need insurance? Here are 14 reasons why you do! 

We understand that there’s a lot of uncertainty about travel right now. 

Please note that these are the policies that are currently in place. These rules could change between now and your departure date. Any updates will be posted here. 

Q. Is a COVID test required to enter Mexico?

A. At this time, there is no test required. You do not have to take a COVID test or complete a health form to enter Mexico. 

Q. Am I required to take a test to return to the United States? 

A. Effective June 12, 2022, there is no longer a requirement to test before returning to the United States. 

Q. What happens if there is a travel ban?

A. In the event of a travel ban, we would move the date of the wedding. We will make every effort to ensure that everyone in the group is able to keep the same room and number of nights at the current group rate. 

Q. Does the travel insurance cover us if we decide to cancel due to fear of COVID?

A. Our travel insurance is a ”cancel for any reason” policy. Covered reasons are covered at 100%. Uncovered reasons are covered at 75%. Canceling due to fear of COVID is no different than canceling for fear of spiders, and falls under the provision of the uncovered reasons. There is a link to the policy in the insurance section of the wedding site. Please review the policy for covered and uncovered reasons.

Q. If there is a travel ban, aren’t the hotels and airlines required to give us a full refund?

No, they are not required to offer a refund for anything that falls under force majeure such as government shutdowns, war, pandemics, or acts of God. We strongly encourage you to purchase trip insurance to protect yourself from a financial loss.

We offer a lot of great excursions in this destination! We recommend that you pre-book your excursions.

Most of our excursions include transportation.

Two popular excursions that have been enjoyed and positively reviewed are:
Cenotes Express
Snorkeling with Sea Turtles & Cenote

We are also happy to help you find and book excursions specific to your interests! Please email us to let us know what you'd like to experience.
