Destination Weddings in Cancun

While known for being a tourist location for party hotspots, Cancun is one of the most beautiful tropical locations to say I do. From its clear waters, luscious palms, and unforgettable views, Cancun offers a beautiful backdrop for both ceremonies and receptions. This hotspot isn’t just known for its jaw-dropping views but also its water and downtown activities. Your guests will have plenty to do in Cancun. Sitting on the second largest reef in the world, you can keep busy with countless water activities, like exploring the cenotes (or underwater caves) or swimming in the crystal clear water.

Cancun Wedding Requirements

You’ll need a few things to say I do in Mexico and be legally married; a valid passport, original and copies of birth certifications (and translated into Spanish), and death and divorce decrees (if applicable.) Some venues have the option of a symbolic ceremony if you want to make it legal at home before or after you travel to Cancun.

I worked with Tiffani to plan my destination wedding in Mexico and cannot speak highly enough of my experience! She was super knowledgeable about the entire process, did all the leg work in helping me find the perfect venue, connected me to all my wonderful vendors, helped all of my guests with all of their bookings, was calm and professional when some of my not so amazing guests ended up being super difficult in the end, and made sure I was getting the most value for my money! She was amazing from start to finish and I would use her services again in a heartbeat!

Tiffani is my go-to travel agent. I have used her for several years and many vacations. I’ve never had to worry about a thing as she took care of it all. She made sure transfers to / from the airport / hotel were taken care of. There was always someone waiting for us which made us feel safe and special. She took care of all the little things and made trips extra special for birthdays / special life events. Tiffani was available whenever I needed her for even the silliest of things like not being able to find restaurant menus or excursions on the resort website. Working with a professional travel agent took all of the stress away from planning our trips and allowed myself and my family to go away and only worry about what time we were heading to the pool and which restaurant we were making a reservation at. 😊

I can’t say enough good things about Destination Paradise!! They made everything about my wedding and trip seamless, I never had to worry. I would recommend them to everyone looking for the wedding / vacation of your dreams! Everything was perfect - thank you!

I had the pleasure of working with Tiffani on multiple occasions and on both of my trips booked through Tiffani were amazing! Seamless simple and awesome! One year we went to Punta Cana and one year we went to Mexico and both times she picked awesome resorts with amazing food and drinks! The hotels were clean, and the staff was so welcoming and accommodating! From booking the flights to the hotel and booking our shuttle it was so effortless we didn’t have to do anything but show up! So, if you are looking for a travel agent who is going to be there from start to finish and deliver Tiffani is your women! We can’t thank you enough for everything you did for us!

We have worked with Tiffani several times, planning trips to Disney, Universal Studios Orlando, Cancun and Greece. She was very knowledgeable and took care of everything we needed and more. Our trip to Greece involved multiple flights and multiple hotels as well as lots of transportation between and within the islands. Everything went seamlessly. She knew a lot about many all-inclusive hotel choices for our trip to Cancun and has found us great deals for many of our trips. I never thought I needed a travel agent until I worked with Tiffani!
