Pueblo Bonito Pacifica
Couples can exchange vows in an oceanfront area with fire pits at Pueblo Bonito Pacifica.

While there are plenty of other options to be found in Mexico, you can’t go wrong with pitching any of these all-inclusives to the brides and grooms heading to Mexico on a budget.

Pueblo Bonito Pacifica

Pueblo Bonito Pacifica, on two and a half miles of pristine, white-sand Cabo beach, comes with five dining experiences, including gourmet à la carte restaurants, poolside snacks and 24-hour in-room dining. Recently, the resort converted exclusively to the Luxury Without Limitations program, in which a one-time payment secures a complete vacation experience for guests.

The best rooms on property are the Oceanfront Suites. These two-room suites include a bedroom with a king-size bed, and a separate living area consisting of a queen-size sofa bed, parlor with a sofa and chairs, additional TV and closet, minibar and a built-in bar.

Among Pacifica’s wedding services are onsite certified wedding planners and wedding packages as well as photo and video services; musicians; wedding cakes; entertainment, including fireworks and fire dancers; dance lessons; special event furniture; linens and chairs; and lighting. Six sites are available for receptions and ceremonies, including the pool decks, an oceanfront fire-pit patio area, oceanfront terraces and gardens, a meditation area, beachside cabana and a secluded beach.

For all of these clients our top six locations are: Mexico, Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas, Hawaii and various European locations, such as Scotland, Italy, France and Spain.”
