8 REASONS TO CHOOSE A DESTINATION WEDDING IN CABO SAN LUCAS, MEXICO
1. AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE
White, sandy beaches, warm sun rays, crystal-clear water, and a charming seaside town—there’s so much to love about Cabo!
Go horseback riding on the beach, try out your surfing skills, explore the sea stacks, visit the lovely boutiques, shops, and eateries downtown, or even go glamping on the beach! There’s something for every couple in this luxury beach destination. A destination wedding in Cabo, Mexico is sure to provide an unforgettable experience that will have you and your guests reminiscing for years to come.
2. MORE TIME TO CELEBRATE
Traditional weddings are great! But they seem to go by in the blink of an eye. You spend months planning, and then it’s over in just a few hours. A destination wedding is the perfect way to extend the celebration and keep it going as you make more memories.
Guests can stay the weekend, or even the entire week with you. Savor every moment with the extra time. Try out the local cuisine, take advantage of all the resort amenities, relax at the beach—whatever you feel like doing. If you had to postpone your wedding due to COVID, a destination wedding in Cabo, Mexico is the perfect way to reclaim that time and make sure your wedding is all you dreamed it would be…and more!
3. INCREDIBLE PHOTOS
Nothing compares to the seaside backdrop Mother Nature provides in Cabo San Lucas. The ambiance is breathtaking, so you can only imagine how stunning your wedding photos will be. It’s hard to take a bad photo in paradise!
4. LESS STRESS
Grab your wedding planner, choose the destination and wedding package, make your travel plans, and it will all be waiting for you. While there are still a few details to nail down before you arrive, all in all, a destination wedding is considerably less stressful than a large traditional wedding. All-inclusive resorts and wedding packages make it easy for you to sit back and enjoy every stress-free moment! And the Bustle Events Team will be there to put the finishing touches on your big day for additional personalization.
5. FLEXIBLE TIMELINE
You’re on beach time in Cabo. There’s no rush and no pressure. Since you’ll have an extended wedding celebration, the only constraint is making it to your ceremony on time. The rest is up to you! Plus, you can get married on any day of the week. Depending on your resort or venue, you can dance the night away if you wish without worrying about cleanup and curfews. Then, head out for a delicious brunch the next morning (or afternoon…).
6. DO MORE WITH YOUR BUDGET.
If you set your budget, a destination wedding can help you do more with your money. All-inclusive resorts offer wedding packages that typically end up being more cost-effective than larger, local traditional weddings.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t splurge. Instead of spending your budget on 300 party favors, you can spend it on scuba lessons and an unforgettable diving adventure. In addition, some destination wedding resorts in Cabo, Mexico offer extra wedding package perks, such as a free VIP stay if you book a block of rooms!
7. EXPERIENCE A NEW CULTURE AND PLACE.
Destination weddings provide the chance to get away and see the world. As you embark on this journey together, it can be fun to experience a new culture, try local food together, and venture out on exciting excursions. Plus, trying new things together is a great way to deepen your relationship even more.
8. EXTRA TIME WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
Given the travel plans and unique location, you may choose only to invite your nearest and dearest. However, keep in mind that everyone—even those closest to you—may not be able to attend. That being said, planning well in advance, discussing travel plans, and coordinating with friends and family who want to attend will guarantee a better turnout. Once you’re all there, you’ll find that you have more quality time to spend together on a long weekend with an intimate group than you would with a traditional wedding.
Planning is critical for a successful destination wedding, so be sure to connect with our wedding team to help you coordinate an extraordinary getaway!
