Here's a few photos from our vintage travel inspired wedding in Tulum, Mexico on May 22nd! I'll post my professional pictures once I get them. There were lots of details, such as vintage suitcases, a globe, lots of mason jars and a DIY photobooth station that I don't have any photos of yet. We purchased or made everything ourselves rather than renting, even the exposed bulb lighting. We sourced everything from our travels to Vancouver, Palm Springs, and a handful of cities around Mexico. Pretty much the only things we rented were the tiffany chairs, bamboo mats and the gazebo! Although the hanging bottles and flower garlands on the gazebo are mine. For you brides that are getting married in the Riviera Maya in the next year that are having trouble figuring out how to bring vintage decor items down here, or can't seem to find companies down here that rent decor items like this (there aren't many in this area, if any at all) please send me an inbox message! I'd be happy to talk with you about an affordable rental! -

Hey ladies! I just wanted to say congratulations on your upcoming weddings! I am a newlywed that lives down here in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. We just got married last week in Tulum! We planned our wedding for just over two years and went through deciding between several all inclusives, and then switched to deciding between different villas in the area, and finally settled on a wedding at a small hotel in Tulum. We had 75 guests and we rented out the entire hotel. I wanted to offer my help and advice to those of you with any questions about the area or advice on planning a wedding down here in general. With planning a wedding in the Mayan Riviera and living in the area for a year and a half, I've picked up quite a bit of knowledge in the process. Also, if anyone is going for a rustic vintage style wedding but doesn't want to lug all the decorations down here, I can help! It is very hard to find companies down here that rent this style of wedding decor. Believe me, I looked! I have several glass bottles, mason jars, candleholders, burlap & lace table runners, lanterns, bulb lighting, chinese lanterns, vintage books, old suitcases, customizable table numbers and signs, etc that I'm going to be renting out. I know that most of you won't be making these types of decisions just yet, but it's nice to know what your options are, isn't it? Please send me a PM if you'd be interested in seeing some more photos and pricing of my decor items. My goal is to give great service with fair pricing. In my many months of planning I became very frustrated with the outrageous wedding pricing down here and I want to help fellow brides have their dream wedding (did someone say Pinterest?) without costing them an arm and a leg. Just because you want to have a wedding in paradise doesn't mean you should be charged up the wazoo to do so. Again, congratulations and happy planning! Katy HK

Happy to hear that you got so much photo time and had Robin as a second shooter! They said they shot a similar number for us, around 9000 photos. I guess the hard work for them now is narrowing it down to 900 for each of us! They are so dedicated and really love their jobs, I'm going to recommend them highly to anyone and everyone. A boudoir shoot as a 1st anniversary gift is a great idea! Thank you so much! I can't wait to see the video and professional photos! It's the only way I can relive the day over and over... and over.

Thank you so much! We put a lot of time into all the small details to really make it our own. Living down here in Mexico helped with that, and we provided almost 100% of our own decor. We collected bottles for flowers, made burlap and lace runners, and found lots of little knick knacks in the different cities we travelled to around Mexico and the US. The only things we rented were chairs, a few tables and the gazebo! We even purchased our own bulb lighting since it is very expensive to rent down here. It was definitely a lot of work but totally worth it! The dress is by Canadian designer Ramona Keveza, style L854. I had satin buttons put down the back and wore the sash from my sister's wedding dress that she wore 7 years ago.

Hey ladies! Here's a few of our photos from our wedding last week in Tulum. Our photographers (Luckygirl Photography fron Winnipeg, Canada - www.luckygirl.ca) gave us a sneak peek of our day before shoot. We don't have any professional photos of the wedding day yet, but our friends and family took some nice shots that I'll upload for now. The day was beyond amazing, everything I ever dreamt of and I wish we could relive it over and over! I guess the wedding video will have to do. Here's to happily ever after for all of us!
