Secily and Daniel Get Married in Mexico

Secily and Daniel Get Married in Mexico: A Love Story at Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen

Secily and Daniel were simply meant to be and meant to get married in Mexico. With their first date in 2018 at a Mexican restaurant, four Mexican vacations, and a proposal in Playa Mujeres, it was clear that a wedding in Mexico was the best way to celebrate their amor! We were so happy to meet Secily and Daniel and share in the emotions of their Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen wedding.

The day kicked off with a super fun “getting ready” time at our Villa la Joya condo, this bridal party was full of laughs and great energy and the champagne flowed. The first look of Secily and Daniel was magic, the couple shared private words on the Villa la Joya balcony with an intimate moment to calm their nerves. The photos will bring a little tear to your eye!

Private Villa wedding in Mexico: Secily and Daniel’s elegant ceremony at Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen

Secily and Daniel’s gorgeous wedding ceremony took place on the steps of Villa la Joya with an elegant setting. The lush pillars of flowers and the golden chairs welcomed family and friends to an intimate space of celebration. Secily’s entrance from the Villa la Joya arch created an unforgettable image of a stunning bride coming down the aisle. The bride and groom exchanged moving vows surrounded by love and light and the warmth of their nearest and dearest.

Why choose a Villa La Joya Playa del Carmen wedding?

We asked Secily and Daniel what went into making their decision to get married in Mexico at Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen:

When choosing our venue, it was important to be somewhere that felt both intimate and private. We knew if we got married at a resort there would be hundreds of other hotel guests watching from their balconies, and we wanted our wedding to feel exclusive to us and our guests. Additionally, there are so few venue options in Mexico that aren’t right on the beach and while we loved having a view of the ocean, we knew we didn’t want to get married in the sand. The Villa was the perfect mix of everything, we had privacy, luxury, flexibility and a beautiful view of the ocean and beach.

Cocktails, mariachis and sweet treats: Fireworks light up the Playa del Carmen sky at the wedding reception of Secily and Daniel

After the elegant ceremony on the front steps, the party moved to the seaside gardens of Villa la Joya for an unforgettable wedding reception. White roses everywhere, mariachi serenades and a yummy dessert table overflowing with treats, what a way to celebrate love! After dinner and toasts, everyone made their way to the dance floor and got their groove on and watched fireworks light up the night sky over the sea.

Something that was both emotional and special for Secily was having the cigar roller. Secily’s father passed away a few years ago so he sadly couldn’t be there to witness our day. Her father, Steve, loved Mexico and loved smoking cigars so it was important for us to find ways to incorporate his spirit into our day. We chose to have a cigar roller come and roll cigars for everyone with custom cigar labels with his face on it. The cigar table was the perfect tribute to him and was a special way for his presence to be felt during the wedding.

Muchas gracias to Secily and Daniel! Thank you for sharing your love in a Villa La Joya Playa del Carmen Wedding

We had such a great time with Secily and Daniel, it was a pleasure to watch their dreams become reality as they created their perfect wedding day. The planning of this day was full of creative fun and we were so grateful for the chance to host the newlyweds and their loved ones at their Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen wedding.

From the moment we contacted the Villa, they were friendly, attentive, and so accommodating. Many other venues we spoke to were difficult to get a hold of and had a lot of strict rules around planning. We loved that Villa gave us complete creative freedom to decorate and celebrate however we wanted. It allowed us to truly create the wedding of our dreams without limits. During the wedding, all our guests kept asking how we found the Villa and couldn’t believe how incredible it was. Everyone was blown away!
