Rachael and Dylan’s Gorgeous Playa del Carmen Villa la Joya Wedding

I think everyone is still recovering from Rachael and Dylan’s GORGEOUS Playa del Carmen Villa la Joya wedding! What a fiesta! We were just so excited to host this stunning event and we can’t wait to share this love story in photos. Ready? Let’s celebrate the amor of these beautiful newlyweds.

The “getting ready” part of this wedding adventure starts off with all the pretty bridesmaids and Rachael enjoying some special time together. Rachael had a “first look” moment in the Villa la Joya garden with her father that was super moving and emotional, we love this idea but bring tissues! 

Racheal showed off her natural beauty with flowing hair and a magnificent bridal gown, oh man is that dress breathtaking! The bridesmaids shone in champagne and carried simple but elegant bouquets of roses. Dylan looked muy guapo in his white smoking jacket tux with all his boys in black beside him, fantastic bridal party style inspiration for a Mexican villa wedding.

Why did you choose Mexico for your destination wedding?

We asked Rachael why they chose a destination wedding in Mexico and here is what she shared with us: 

We wanted a special day, international, where our friends and family could spend several days with us celebrating and enjoying a Holiday! We decided on Mexico while we were on vacation in Playa Del Carmen in early 2021. We loved the food, culture, people, and music! It was a perfect choice for us!

When we asked why they chose a wedding at Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen, here is what she said:

We wanted something exclusive for our guests, the "resort wedding" wasn't really ever an option for us. We wanted our day to be private and special just for us.

This was a truly special day, we adored all the details and the warmth and love of all those who celebrated this intimate wedding in Playa del Carmen. This was an exclusive and private affair and that is just how we like it and it is why we only host one wedding per day. Rachael and Dylan’s love was all that was needed to make our garden glow.

Let’s party! The grand private villa wedding reception of Rachael and Dylan!

After a portrait session with Cancun wedding photographer Monica Lopez, the party really got started with tequila shots and the open bar. Toasts were made, glasses raised in laughter and some tears, there was a whole lot of love with the emotional speeches.

Bride Rachael changed into a sassy party dress, everyone hit the dance floor and the tequila started flowing freely! Dancing the night away and digging into some delicious churros, watching Rachael and Dylan together was magic. We are so happy they invited us to share in their day and host their private villa wedding at Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen!
