Question Searching for a Mayan Riviera Resort

Hi! I've just started my search for a resort for my DW. I'm looking into the Riviera Maya area but have a few guidelines. Must be all-inclusive (as per my FI!), and most imortantly family friendly for both the young and old. Any suggestions would be great!

Check out Paradisus Riviera Cancun | All Inclusive Cancun Vacation Packages I'm sure I'm biased, but it has something for everyone.

We chose the Bahia Principe Tulum, partially because of the size of the resort (people can choose to hang out together or apart) and the cost of the actual wedding is incredibly reasonable! The other resorts that were on our short list were Iberostar Paraiso Lindo (ended up being outside of our budget - maybe it would fit yours though) and the Occidental Grand Xcaret (then only have a man made beach and we wanted to get married on the sand). We stayed there last year and had a wonderful time.

Good luck in your choosing!!

My sister-in-law also got married at Gran Bahia Principe (Tulum)... it was great!
Great place and nice wedding coordinator.
