Planning an Upscale Wedding in Mexico

People have various motivations for wanting to escape to Mexico for a getaway wedding--the goal for many in doing so is to create a relaxed and nontraditional wedding experience. There are many people, however, that want to channel the focus of their destination wedding into creating a decadent event fit for a king. Those wanting a luxurious beachside wedding will have a different set of priorities and criteria than those planning a more laid-back event. 

If you are planning an over-the-top destination wedding, you will probably want to look at larger scale resorts that offer accommodations for big groups and are more likely to have amenities like ballrooms, spas and larger waitstaff. Consider the Esperanza an Auberge Resort in Cabo San Lucas. Located at the tip of the Baja Peninsula, the Esperanza is spread over 17 manicured acres, and offers a direct view of the Sea of Cortez. Most rooms feature a private infinity-edge hot tub and sweeping ocean views. The Esperanza was also voted #1 hotel spa in Latin America, with full service treatments and health classes.
