The Ultimate Location for your Riviera Maya Destination Wedding: El Dorado Resorts!

What’s not to love about a destination wedding?! A gorgeous and exotic location mixed with quality time with family and friends…sounds like a dream, right?! For those of you looking for a destination wedding with the perfect combination of romance, natural beauty, and unique activities for your guests, the Riviera Maya is a perfect choice. And today I am super excited to introduce you to one of the most amazing places for an unforgettable wedding weekend in the Mexica Caribbean…drum roll, please… El Dorado Spa Resorts by Karisma!  

Say “I do” on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, host a sunset cruise for your friends and family, or honeymoon in Mexico’s only overwater bungalows. Sounds like a dream, right?! Well, it’s not. With El Dorado Resorts’ all-inclusive experience and unbelievable properties, your dream vacation + wedding celebration is a perfectly achievable reality.

I had the privilege of staying at two of El Dorado properties in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico this summer and I can truly say they are just the idyllic places to get married. The amazing trip was sponsored by Apple Vacations, but all the opinions shared in this post are my own. Trust me, this is a completely honest review of the resorts and their wedding and honeymoon options for you!

With a plethora of spaces to tie the knot from different beachfront ceremony setups overlooking the Caribbean to an open-air sky terrace with all the beauty of the Riviera Maya as your background, there is really no shortage of venue options to celebrate your special day at El Dorado Resorts.

Before we move forward and tell you why you should really consider El Dorado Resorts for your Riviera Maya destination wedding and or honeymoon, there is something you should know about El Dorado Resorts ⎼ the food is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! Their highly skilled team of chefs will surprise you with an infusion of international flavors you’ve never thought were possible. Every dish is as creative as it is delicious, and the best part is that you can enjoy it all with your all-inclusive experience. Oh and the service? What can we say about the first-class and incredibly friendly service we encounter everywhere at the resort? Every team member is trained to make the guests feel like royalty.

During our stay, we were able to enjoy everything that you get with the renowned Gourmet Inclusive Experience® by Karisma, the all-inclusive journey that gets you unlimited gourmet food, immersive activities, and access to all El Dorado Resorts luxury experiences. Think of a private beach dinner on a gazebo decorated just for the two of you, unlimited drinks at the pool with your friends, salsa lessons, yoga with the girls, or a fire show on the beach after your rehearsal dinner. 

Our favorite features of this marvelous resort are the intimate bridal suite inside their spa, the camel rides, the peaceful beach bed with a private butler, and the waterfront private villa that you can rent for yourself and ten of your guests. The villa includes your very own private pool and one of their talented private chefs to cook every meal for you. Trust us, there is no shortage of indulging activities at El Dorado Maroma.

The atmosphere at El Dorado Casitas Royale is a combination of laid-back tropical elegance and impending adventure. It makes the place ideal for honeymooners who appreciate the privacy of the compounds but may want to mingle with a party crowd by visiting the bars and clubs at the neighboring hotels. Their schedule of planned activities throughout the week is nothing short of impressive, but if you feel like relaxing is what you are looking for I highly recommend you visiting the spa, either for a couples massage with your babe or for a pampering session with your bridal party the morning before the wedding.
