With its white sand beaches, turquoise waters and vibrant mix of culture and sophistication, Cancun remains a favorite destination for unforgettable weddings. More than 25,000 foreign couples choose this paradise every year to celebrate their love.

The best of Cancun is not only its scenery, but the quality of its services and unique experiences before and after the big day. Escape to Holbox Island, famous for its pristine beaches and water activities. Immerse yourself in Mexican culture with a trajinera ride at the Xoximilco theme park, or tour downtown Cancun, which at night becomes a magical place.

A "FOREVER"

Cancun and its surroundings offer not only postcard beaches, but also some of the most exclusive resorts in the Caribbean, designed to make any type of wedding a reality: intimate by the sea, elegant on terraces or vibrant on rooftops with a cosmopolitan atmosphere. One of them is Nizuc Resort & Spa, a luxury resort that offers options for ceremonies on terraces or on the beach, with a maximum of 250 people. While SLS Cancun has spaces overlooking the Caribbean Sea, such as its Beach Club with capacity for 200 people, or the Waldorf Astoria Cancun with stages on the beach lined with palm trees.

Some resorts, like the Grand Hyatt Playa del Carmen, with a modern and spacious lounge, patio and terraces facing the sea, also have a Bridal Suite, designed to facilitate the whole process for brides. Paradisus Cancun and JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa offer personalized service and menus for any dietary requirement. Hyatt Ziva Cancun offers a 557-square-meter ballroom and a rooftop terrace. For a more cosmopolitan atmosphere, the Hard Rock Hotel Cancun or the Presidente Intercontinental will meet your requirements.

Other recommendations include the Wyndham Alltra Cancun All-Inclusive Resort, which specializes in weddings. Thompson Playa del Carmen, a resort that offers 360-degree views from its terrace, and the Grand Palladium Costa Mujeres Resort & Spa with luxury services.

TIP

Consider arriving at least three days before the wedding. In addition to acclimatize and relax, you will be able to test your menu.
