Same-sex wedding in Cabo this August - headed to Cabo this weekend to look at venues

[mrm1662]

Hi Everyone,

After 10 years together, we got married in New York last month and are planning a wedding in Cabo for August. This weekend we're going to Cabo for a little celebration and to pick a venue for our special day. Dreams does not perform same-sex weddings, but so far we're considering Riu Palace & Pueblo Bonita Pacifico. Any other ideas for places to scout out?

I have no suggestions but CONGRATULATIONS!!  Enjoy the fun of checking out the venue and picking out your special place and then the fun planning can really begin!

Hey there! Congratulations!

 

I love the Barcelo and Playa Grande in Cabo San Lucas. Playa del Arco is also nice, though I don't know what their all-inclusive or wedding packages are like. It might be mostly owners...

I didn't even realize there were resorts not doing same-sex weddings (come on Mexico, you used to be cool) so I don't know for sure about if those three will. Sure hope so.

Holla at me if you have photography questions!

Gooooooood luck!

Sun, sand, beaches, and beautiful people.    Have fun on your recon trip.  Hopefully you can find a resort that fits your needs.

Congratulations!  Mine is a same-sex wedding, as well.  Dreams resort was the first place I really fell in love with, so I was crushed when they said they wouldn't perform a same-sex ceremony.  I found an amazing place in Playa del Carmen that I'm even happier with, so while I don't have any suggestions for you in Cabo, I offer my support & confidence that you'll find an amazing venue!  I had to research from afar, so it took me a while, but you have the wonderful benefit of being there in person, so I bet it will be a breeze.  Can't wait to hear what you decide!

I didn't even know that same sex weddings were an issue in Mexico.  Sometimes people are so backwards.

 

Congrats, and welcome to the forums.
