Tulum weddings


Tulum is a laid-back beach area in the Rivera Maya in Mexico, and a perfect place for a destination wedding. It's easy to get to, there's a lot to do, and there are some fantastic places to stay. Unlike the resort areas of Cozumel and Cancun, most of the hotels in Tulum max out at two stories. They tend to be hidden amongst the trees, so although you may be in a hotel zone, you don't feel it. Destinatoin weddings in Tulum are becoming more and more popular based on its pristing beauty and relaxed vibe.


Like all Mexican weddings, you'll need the following for your marriage requirements: passport, birth certificate, blood tests, witnesses, and you'll have to be in th country for a few days before you get married. You also must have your legal ceremony in a judge's office - then you can have your spiritual/religious ceremony whenever you want. Typically it takes 3 days to get married in Tulum. Many people will just do the legal work in their home state, and then have their spiritual/religious wedding abroad. One cool possibility is to have a Mayan wedding ceremony - it's a cosmic, shaman-led ceremony, and extraordinarily unique way to get married. One of our Tulum wedding photographers shot one at sunrise near Hotel Mil Amores.
