Mexico is one of the most popular locations for destination weddings. It can be relatively inexpensive compared to some other tropical locales. One of my favorite places to stay in Mexico is Al Cielo Hotel and it’s perfect for weddings.
Al Cielo Hotel is located on Xpu-Ha Beach in Riviera Maya, Mexico. It is technically a boutique hotel because of its small size. The entire hotel is made with local woods and materials. Each room sits directly on the Xpu-Ha Beach, making the gorgeous blue water a part of each guest’s front yard.
Al Cielo Hotel has only four rooms – water, air, earth and fire. Each has an upstairs bedroom area and a downstairs living area with guest rooms. Rooms get fantastic views of the beach and of the surrounding jungle. The sunsets are absolutely dazzling. All guests receive complimentary breakfast, Tai Chi lessons for two, free parking, access to the beach club, hammocks, daily maid service and wireless internet.
The spa has special massages for adults and children. It also features antique healing technique sessions based on methods used in Hawaii, China, Thailand and in Mexico. Al Cielo Restaurant, located next to Al Cielo Hotel, is situated in a comfortable thatch roof palapa. The menu consists of fresh local fish and shellfish prepared under world renowned Chef Francisco Morales.
Al Cielo Hotel is proud to host weddings, anniversary parties and honeymoon escapes. They have a full time planner to help coordinate your wedding, including finding musicians, planning your menu and every other special detail. To learn more about Al Cielo and how to host your destination wedding there, visit their website at alcielohotel.com. They can accommodate a sit-down plated dinner for up to 104 people.

They feature elements from the beach, including palm trees, sand, surf, seashells, boats and more. Check out the entire selection of beach wedding favors.
