Cabo Wedding Venues

To start narrowing down the best wedding venues in Cabo, Mexico, you should consider a few questions:

1. What vibe are you going for your Cabo Wedding? Do you want something modern? More traditional? How do you envision the ceremony and reception?

2. What is your general budget? How much are you willing to spend on the wedding Venue + price per head (for food, drinks, etc)? Is there a venue fee? What’s included in the rate?

3. How many people are you inviting for your Cabo destination wedding?

4. What time of year are you hoping to get married? How will this affect the availability of some locations?

5. What are your guest’s budgets? How much will it cost for guests to stay at the hotel with you? Are there other options nearby?

6. Do you want to have it at an all-inclusive Cabo resort? Or would you prefer to work with a “standard” hotel?

From wedding rings to bridal gowns, planning the dream ceremony is the most exciting yet the most complicated process couples do. Some wished to spend their big day in a vintage church. Others want a simple backyard gathering. Some couples prefer a mini-vacation one near the sea.

If you are someone or you know someone who looks forward to a beach wedding, you know it is not easy to spot the perfect venue. We understand this struggle, so we curated this list for you! Check out our top picks for the ultimate Cabo Wedding Venues in Mexico.

Cabo is also known as Los Cabos

At the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja Peninsula lies a twin town: Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, known for its cultural atmosphere and beautiful coastline, making it a sought-after location for weddings, with panoramic desert landscapes and turquoise waters. Cabo or also named Los Cabos is home to the world’s most popular tourist destinations, including The Arch, also known as “Land’s End,” where the Sea of Cortes meets with the Pacific Ocean. Las Cabos also boasts iconic natural landmarks, historical monuments, and top-class hotels and restaurants perfect for the ultimate wedding destination experience.

Nearby, Puerto Los Cabos offers luxurious accommodations and activities, making it another prime location for wedding venues.

The famous Los Cabos beach accommodates surfing, kayak riding, whale watching, and even your dream wedding. There is nothing more romantic than to walk on its pearly white shores and to say your vows to the sound of its gentle waves. The best part? The wedding itself is already the honeymoon! What’s that for saving time and money?

VERY IMPORTANT

If you’re at the beginning of your search for a wedding venue in Baja Sur, there are some important considerations to keep in mind. Before booking with a hotel, check if you’re allowed to bring in your preferred vendors. Often, hotels may charge high fees for external vendors, and even if you opt for their in-house services, it doesn’t necessarily mean they’re the best, but rather the ones that bring in the highest commissions for the hotel. As a wedding photographer based in Cabo San Lucas, I understand the importance of choosing vendors that align with your vision and budget. Don’t hesitate to inquire about vendor policies before finalizing any contracts, as this can significantly impact your wedding planning experience.
