Our Services for Your Dream Wedding in Mexico

You say “I do” and we take care of the rest

Dreaming of having the best day of your life in a Caribbean setting? A romantic beach wedding? Feet in the sand, the sound of the ocean in the background or a typical Mexican mariachi band? Or would you prefer an exclusive oceanfront villa, classical music and a Caribbean buffet? Dancing under the stars? Or perhaps a Mayan ceremony in a cenote, mystical with a goosebump factor?

Symbolic wedding, elopement and Mayan ceremonies

Have you already found your dream partner and want to renew your vows? Would you like to celebrate your engagement or confess and promise your love in an authentic Mayan ceremony? Of course we can fulfill these wishes as well.

Emotional wedding speech

The heart of every wedding is not only a dreamlike setting and a perfectly planned ceremony, but also a personal and moving wedding speech. As a professional wedding officiant on the Riviera Maya in Mexico, I know exactly what it takes to make this special moment unforgettable.

To prepare a moving wedding speech, we will first talk about your individual wishes and ideas. Based on your story, your values and your personalities, I will write an emotional wedding speech that perfectly expresses your love for each other.

Romantic dinner

Just the two of you for a romantic dinner in a Caribbean atmosphere at a private beach club? Candlelight and torches? No problem for us! Enjoy an exclusive 8-course menu, exquisite wines and excellent service.

Private atmosphere

We want you and your guests to enjoy the day undisturbed. That’s why we organize all celebrations on private beaches or in places that belong only to you. Far away from mass tourism and uninvited spectators.

English, Spanish or German?

Just as you like! We usually work in English and Spanish. If you prefer to communicate with us in German, we’re happy to do that as well. And of course, the ceremony can be bilingual. For example, if the groom speaks English and the bride speaks Spanish.
