What is a “boho chic wedding”? We’ve all seen photos of dreamy weddings by the sea with flowing frocks and flowers in everyone’s hair. Soft, comfortable decor and a chill vibe are perfect for a cozy, intimate wedding with relaxed and inviting energy. Is a bohemian wedding in Mexico what you’ve always dreamed of?

How would you describe the “boho style”? Think organic and natural, laid-back, go with the flow, artistic, creative, and a little unconventional. A bohemian wedding is warm and welcoming, a celebration of love and the elements. A little bit hippie, a little bit of elegance, and a whole lot of romance!!

The wedding planners at Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen LOVE a delicious bohemian wedding, here are some tips from our experts.

Consider the wedding destination and venue, best by the beach of course!

You’ll want that warm ocean breeze and the swaying palm trees as the canvas to create your own bohemian wedding masterpiece. A lush garden on the sea is the perfect setting for a bohemian wedding. Boho weddings at Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen are simply magic.

Guests attire, yes, you can define a dress code for your wedding aesthetic.

Think natural material and neutral colors or floral prints. Asking guests to wear one color like an “all-white” wedding is a gorgeous way to tie the bohemian aesthetic all together. 

Bohemian bridal style.

The bohemian bride is the epitome of romance, lacy and flowing and free, with gowns or dresses that blow in the breeze, softness in hair and makeup, and a natural look that never goes out of style. Floral crowns, vintage bridal dresses with antique lace, braids for hair, soft updos, or long natural locks and curls, the bohemian bride glows.

Soft Lighting and Decor.

Pampas grass and palm leaves, wood, antique metals, dried flowers or neutral colored blooms, candles and lanterns, make it soft, make it cozy, make it elemental. 

Lounge areas for guests to chill with a drink.

Comfy couches, deep pillows, natural textiles and rugs, create a “chill out” area for relaxing between dances and engaging in delightful conversation. A bohemian lounge area is the perfect place to set up an “aguas frescas” table or present your signature cocktails to refresh your guests’ thirst.
