Mexico Wedding and Honeymoon

A wedding or honeymoon in Mexico can be filled with culture, charm and gorgeous scenery, from sun-kissed beaches to colonial settings and cobbled streets. Mexico's Native American heritage and emphatic Spanish influence makes it vibrant, colourful and unique. There are various hotels, villas and resorts geared to hosting wedding functions or honeymoon couples, as well as wedding planners at hand to assist with preparation. Laid-back locals and great weather year-round add to the appeal of this wedding and honeymoon destination.

Wedding and Honeymoon things to see and do

Wedding or honeymoon couples in Mexico will find countless things to see and do. Explore the Templo Mayor, the main Aztec temple, in Mexico City or wander the cobbled streets of San Ángel. The beautiful scenery of Baja California is not to be missed, from azure bays and fine white beaches to rocky cliffs, quiet deserts and cactus covered mountain slopes. Visit the ancient Mayan city of Palenque, or the pyramids they built at Chichén Itzá. And then there are cruises, whale watching and diving for couples to enjoy together...

Mexico Wedding Formalities

Couples wishing to be married in Mexico will require marriage application forms from the local registry office in Mexico, as well as their full passports (valid for at least 6 months) and copies of both passports. Original copies of the tourist permit which was completed at the port of entry or other immigration permits are also required, as are birth certificates (certified and translated by an approved translator). Chest X-rays and blood test results (written in Spanish) must also be provided. Civil marriage is the only legally recognised marriage in Mexico, and 4 witnesses are required to be present.
