Two sleek and sexy bridal looks, cherry wood and white roses. And giant robots serving shots by the cigar bar. Let’s go!!

Magazine-worthy wedding in Mexico: Let’s talk about the bride and groom

This is a wedding where it all came together to perfection, like a feature article in a bridal magazine, s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g. Kiana and Craig are such a beautiful couple and they are clearly madly in love. Their classic looks for their Villa la Joya wedding were the definition of elegance.

Kiana’s bridal gown was simple but in an impactful WOW kind of way. Sexy, sensual, and perfectly flattering to showcase the natural beauty of the bride. Hair and makeup by VO Evolution completed the glowing look and the veil was perfect in the ocean breeze. Craig wore a traditional black tuxedo, or we should say, he rocked a traditional black tuxedo, a model groom beside his beloved bride.

The Seaside Wedding: Garden Ceremony at Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen

Kiana and Craig said their “I do’s” in a moving garden ceremony by the sea. The floral arch and bouquets in white roses and chairs in cherry wood were pure elegance. The loved ones in attendance at this destination wedding in Playa del Carmen showered the couple with love and support and flower petals.

Once the knot was tied, the cocktails began to flow from the mezcal bar and the violinist serenaded the guests with live music. Smiles, hugs and toasts, the emotions were flowing and spirits were high.

Pretty woman, saxophone fireworks and giant robots serving shots

The reception look for Kiana was as gorge as her bridal gown, a look reminiscent of a movie star and oh man those opera gloves. If you are ever hesitant about having a second bridal look, hesitate no more, this is your inspiration to say yes to a reception dress. Sexy, sensual and elegant, fabulous.

The reception was a dynamic event with su-per fun details and entertainment. Live saxophonist with FIREWORKS coming out of his instrument. Giant LED robots serving shots and dancing with guests. Cigar bar rolling all night. The music was a hit and everyone brought their boogie to the dance floor for an epic celebration of love and marriage.

Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen pre-wedding portraits that took our breath away

The magic of this wedding day started before the guests even arrived. Sianna shared “getting ready” time with her bridal party, donning a bridal gown that hugged her curves and featured a magnificent train and veil that WOWED! The bridal portraits in the hallways of Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen are absolutely worthy of a magazine spread.

Destination wedding “first look” photos in our private villa in Mexico

Groom Keegan joined his soon-to-be-wife for a “first look” in his sharp, traditional black tuxedo and some sweet kicks. The couple’s portraits on the balcony and on the marble stairs utilize the architecture and art of our villa by the sea to create spectacular images of romance that showcase the love story of Sianna and Keegan.

Why choose a Villa la Joya Playa del Carmen destination wedding?

We selected Villa La Joya because it reminded us of Italy! The architecture and the venue has this old charm and not to mention it’s stunningly beautiful! Also, Keegans family is Italian and we got engaged at the Trevi fountain in Rome! We picked Mexico because I grew up going with my family so I wanted to bring the family back for a trip of a lifetime!

Sianna and Keegan tied the knot in a moving ceremony in the Villa la Joya seaside garden. The set-up was lovely, white pillars with bursts of color in the florals by Cherry Blossom Mexico. Yes, you can have a beach wedding not on the beach!

We looooved the bridesmaids’ dresses each in their own unique color, combined with the ocean views, bouquets, and florals they made a really beautiful wedding party. The ceremony was really joyous and moving.

Destination wedding reception fun: Mariachis, tears of joy and fashion

My favourite part of the day was listening to all the beautiful speeches from our friends and family! Definitely spent a lot of the day crying haha! Also- the food & drink and dancing was next level.

The light wood furnishings and dinner set-up with more glorious florals, cool cocktail tables, sky tent, and twinkling lights, an unforgettably unique Villa la Joya wedding reception. Sianna and Keegan were celebrated by their loved ones with a mariachi serenade and champagne toasts.

Bride Sianna changed into her killer reception dress and made an impactful entrance with a bright smile. The fashion, totally hot, the short, strapless dress with a soft, sculptural vision in white. Magic. Everyone at this private villa wedding looked gorgeous and happy in their best eleganza.

Muchas gracias, grazie and big thanks to Sianna and Keegan
