"Palace Resorts is the best in the business and always goes above and beyond for their customers, just like I do," said Colin Cowie. "I was totally blown away by their properties, and there was an immediate affinity between our two brands. We have designed eighteen over the top, fabulous customized packages to give the bride and groom a high dose of Colin Cowie style. Every aspect of the design is thought out to make the planning process effortless for the couple.  The programs speak to a broad range of design sensibilities so that there is something for everyone, allowing brides to express themselves and their style without having to get bogged down in the planning details."

"We were looking to elevate the destination wedding experience in a way the industry has never seen before," said Palace Resorts Vice President of Marketing Frank Maduro. "Partnering with Colin Cowie will offer couples the ultimate destination wedding and a chance to connect with their loved ones through a very intimate and personal experience."

Each Colin Cowie Wedding Collection package includes everything needed to create the perfect love affair so couples can rest assured knowing that all amenities are included and the final cost (starting at $1,500) is set upfront. Hotel wedding specialists make all bridal dreams come true when coordinating every detail of a couple's special day, by overseeing all that the packages include such as wedding ceremony location, ceremony structure and set-up, chairs and chair covers, floral decorations, aisle runner, the bridal bouquet and groom's boutonniere, wedding cake, champagne, dinner reservations at a hotel restaurant for up to 30 guests, a honeymoon package, a wedding planner and witnesses if needed. Additionally, couples can add a reception to their package for a low cost per table, which includes food and beverage, tables to accommodate eight guests, centerpiece decorations, plates, runners, silverware, tumblers and wine glasses.

The nine Colin Cowie Wedding Collection packages at Palace Resorts feature chic designs inspired by the beauty of Mexico, including options such as Exotic Peacock, Romantic Red, Sultry Sunset and Pure. Inspired by the most beautiful sunset imaginable, Sultry Sunset is where this epic sunset comes to life. Inspired by the passionate colors of a sunset, chair backs are decorated in deep oranges and pinks while a coppery aisle leads to a gorgeous gazebo where white and pink flowers complete the look. For more understated elegance, the Pure package is a subtle and completely captivating design featuring gentle tones of pale blush and white. Sheer chair backs are placed on graceful chairs of antique white and the aisle leads to a gazebo frame of white, all accented by lush white flowers in silver vases. Additionally, guests can choose the Compliments of Palace Resorts package. Simple, yet fabulously elegant, this complimentary wedding package juxtaposes black and white for a truly tasteful presentation, featuring white chairs and flowers that play against a black wedding gazebo and table, all at no cost.

At the all-inclusive Hard Rock properties in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and Vallarta, Cancun and Riviera Maya, Mexico, the nine Colin Cowie Wedding Collection packages are designed to be seen, heard and remembered for ages, much like the music that has inspired the brand for 40 years. Packages include exciting options such as Metallic Dunes, Rocker Chic, White Rosette and Seaglass. For beachside bridal bliss guests can choose Sea Glass. Inspired by the beautiful blue and green hues found in natural sea glass, this design is the perfect setting for a beach wedding.  Unique seating in bold stripes and patterns, paired with an undulating aisle and crisp white gazebo complete the casual elegance. For a scene straight out of a rock n' roll fantasy, Rocker Chic features patterns and solids in black and white accented by just the right amount of dazzling pops of color. The streamlined gazebo features an altar of black and white topped by a stunning floral arrangement in your choice of colors.
