Hi there Alex

Welcome to the WeddingWire community!

Mexico is a beautiful destination for a wedding!

Check out this article from the WeddingWire ideas section! It has some inspiration of locations in Mexico to check out for your wedding - 7 Mexico Destination Wedding Locations for Every Style

Have you and your FS been to Mexico before? What made you choose it for your wedding?

View Quoted Comment No, we have never been there before. We are very non-traditional and don’t like the idea of a traditional wedding at home.

I will I’ll have to check out the article on the ideas page. Thanks!

I had friends who got married at the Dreams resort in Tulum Mexico. It was really nice. They had a Mayan ceremony as opposed to a more traditional ceremony and it was really cool.

We just got married at the Now Sapphire in Riviera Maya. It was phenomenal.

Sandals Montego Bay, Jamaica is where I’m having my destination wedding.

We’re doing our DW in Cancún!! Finest Playa Mujeres, we booked our room at their Excellence rooms with a walkout pool... tips: narrow it down to location, then resort, then compare wedding packages/prices/what’s offer.. then read reviews reviews and reviews!!! Any specifics ask away!!

DREAMS RESORT AND SPA PLAYA MUJERES !! I just got back from my cousins wedding and let me tell you. I always thought of destination weddings as cheap. But this wedding BLEWWWW ME AWAYYY !!! It was the most fun wedding I have ever been to. The photographer was amazing to the point where I asked my cousin if he would be willing to leave mexico and fly to new york. Our makeup and hair looked beautiful. The dj played the songs and bride and groom requested. The food was excellent. What more can you ask for??? I HIGHLYYYY recommend it and I dont think you would be disappointed

I'm getting married at Secrets in Puerto Vallarta in Oct. Quick, easy and it's a fraction of the cost to get married there than our home in Los Angeles. I detest planning events and frankly, I see a big wedding as the biggest waste of money so with a destination wedding I at least get a vacation out of the deal. It's easy to plan since they have in house vendors and its keeping our guest list short since it weeded out people we were obligated to invite but really didn't want at the wedding. If you aren't picky about your wedding details, go for it! If you live on the west coast, highly suggest Puerto Vallarta as it's a short/cheap flight and more tropical.
