Wedding venues in Mexico

Temozón Sur is the largest of the restored henequen haciendas south of Mérida and the one most couples end up on. It was a working sisal estate from the seventeenth century, and the machine house, the chimney and the stone arcades are still standing, painted the deep ochre that the Yucatán haciendas share. There are 28 suites, from small rooms in the old workers’ quarters to a presidential suite that was the owner’s bedroom. The estate’s own cenote sits under the property with a wooden deck over it, and the spa is built into the rock beside it, so a small ceremony can happen underground by candlelight, which is the thing nobody expects and everybody remembers. Larger weddings use the main courtyard for the ceremony and the back garden, which takes well over a thousand people, for dinner. The trees are old and the walls are lit, so the place needs almost no decorating. Two caveats. Temozón is genuinely rural, 40 minutes from Mérida on a two-lane road, so every guest movement is a coach movement. And the Yucatán interior is hot: April and May regularly pass 38C, and an outdoor ceremony in those months is hard on older guests.

Guests arrive at La Valise Tulum to find a beachfront sanctuary where Caribbean waters meet contemporary design, with direct access to pristine sand and a sophisticated Mexican Riviera setting.

Los Morales is a sixteenth-century hacienda that Mexico City grew around. It sits in Polanco now, behind walls, with its stone arcades, courtyards and old trees intact, and it has been the city’s principal wedding address for generations of Mexican families. Fourteen rooms across three levels take everything from a 60-person dinner to a reception of a thousand; the largest is about 6,100 square feet. Ceremonies happen in the courtyards under the trees, and dinner moves indoors to the ballrooms, which is what makes it work in a city at 2,240 metres where an evening in January is genuinely cold. The kitchen is the hacienda’s own and has been running since long before hotel banqueting arrived in Mexico City. The case for marrying here rather than at a resort is that Mexico City is the easiest place in the country for international guests to reach, has the flights, the hotels and the things to do for a four-day weekend, and costs a fraction of the coast. Two caveats. The hacienda has no rooms, so the whole guest list stays in Polanco or Reforma hotels. And Mexico City traffic is severe: a fifteen-minute drive on a map is 45 minutes on a Friday evening.
