Playa Mujeres, Mexico · 12.03.2027

A ceremony in the sand and a long weekend with everyone we love.

A note from us We know a trip like this is an ask: the flights, the time off, the planning. We don't take a single yes for granted, and just your consideration means the world to us.

Please know there will be no hard feelings whatsoever if you can't make it. We love you so much and hope to see you there, but we'll party with you soon enough regardless!

Fly intoCancun International (CUN)

The resort is about 45 minutes north of the airport in Playa Mujeres. Lots of nonstop flights from most US cities. Book early, since December fares climb.

PassportsCheck yours today

You need a passport book to fly to Mexico (a passport card won't work for flights). It should be valid for at least 6 months after you get home. Renewals can take a while, so check the date now.

Entering MexicoFill out what the airline asks for

Mexico handles the tourist entry form through your airline and at immigration. Never pay a website to fill it out for you. Keep any stamp or slip you get until you leave.

Early DecemberWarm days, breezy nights
82°Day
70°Night

It's dry season, so expect lots of sun. Bring a light layer for evenings.

Money & tipsBring small bills

Everything is included, but a few dollars for bartenders, servers and housekeeping goes a long way. US dollars work, and pesos are even better.

Time zone & phonesEastern time, all year

Cancun doesn't change its clocks, so it matches New York in December. Check your phone plan for Mexico before you go. The resort has Wi-Fi.

Travel insuranceRecommended

Our travel agent offers discounted coverage. Add it within 14 days of booking to get "Cancel For Any Reason." Rates are in the FAQ below.

good questions

FAQ

Booking

Do I have to book through your travel agent?

Yes, please. Our wedding rate, the free airport transfers and access to all of our wedding events come with booking through our travel agent, Barefoot Bridal. If you book directly with the resort or another site, you won't get our rate and we can't count you in our group.

Why does it say I only pay $1?

The resort holds your room with a $1 deposit. Your full balance is charged automatically to the card on file on November 1, 2027. There are no payment plans, so be ready for the full amount then.

What's the minimum stay?

3 nights. We recommend Thursday, December 2 through Sunday, December 5 so you catch the welcome party, the wedding and a free day.

Can I come early or stay longer?

Yes. Our group rate runs from November 30 to December 7, 2027. We're flying in Wednesday and leaving Tuesday, so come hang out.

Who can share a room?

Most suites fit up to 4 people (3 adults and 1 child, or 2 adults and 2 children). Family Suites fit 5. Excellence Club suites fit 2 adults. The price per person goes down when 2 or 3 adults share.

What if I need to change or cancel?

Changes and cancellations are free until September 30, 2027. After that, changes cost $125 and may lose our discounted rate, so please reach out to our travel agent at groups@barefootbridal.com as soon as you know. Travel insurance is non-refundable.

The booking page says a room isn't available. Now what?

Rooms aren't shown in real time. Email groups@barefootbridal.com and our travel agent will check. Other room types may be available too, so just ask.

Should I get travel insurance?

We recommend it. It's priced by the cost of your trip and is non-refundable once you buy it. Add it within 14 days of booking to get "Cancel For Any Reason" coverage (this doesn't apply to New York residents).

The trip

What's included in the all-inclusive?

Your suite, every meal at the resort's 12 restaurants, unlimited premium drinks at 14 bars and lounges, the daily-restocked minibar, pools, beach, nightly entertainment and a free shared airport transfer per room. Some extras, like spa treatments, golf and off-site excursions, usually cost more. Ask the resort when you're there.

Do I need dinner reservations?

Most restaurants don't take reservations, so just show up. The exception is the teppanyaki table at Shoji, the Japanese restaurant. Book it at the front desk early in your trip.

Can I play golf?

Yes. Playa Mujeres has an 18-hole, par 72 course designed by Greg Norman. Green fees aren't part of the all-inclusive, and clubs are available to rent. Book tee times through the resort, and Saturday is wide open.

Do I need to tip?

It's not required, but it's appreciated. A few dollars for bartenders, $5 or so a day for housekeeping, and a little extra at dinner is plenty. Small bills in USD or pesos are perfect.

What's the dress code?

Welcome party: resort chic. Wedding: beach formal, think linen suits, flowy dresses and shoes that work in sand. Some of the resort's nicer restaurants ask for long pants for men at dinner.

Where is the ceremony?

At the Grand Palapa, an open-air, thatched-roof spot right by the beach, at 4pm on Friday, December 3. Cocktails, dinner and dancing follow. Wear shoes that can handle a little sand.

Will my phone work?

Most US carriers have Mexico plans or day passes, so check with yours before you go. The resort has Wi-Fi.

Is it safe?

Playa Mujeres is a quiet resort area north of Cancun, and you'll go straight from the airport to the resort by private transfer. Use the same common sense you would anywhere and stick to resort or reputable tour transportation for outings.

The wedding

Are kids invited?

Yes! All of our nieces and nephews are invited, and we chose a family-friendly resort on purpose. There's a kids club, Family Suites that sleep 5, and plenty of pools. If you'd rather make it a grown-ups-only trip, we completely understand. It's totally up to you.

Kids 0–3 stay free and kids 4–12 have their own lower rate. When you book, include every child in your search, even the free ones. Excellence Club suites are adults only.

Can I bring a plus-one?

Your invitation lists everyone we've invited. If you have questions, just reach out to us directly.

How do I RSVP?

Our RSVP form will be here on the site soon. Booking your room doesn't count as an RSVP, so please do both.

Do you have a registry?

Honestly, you being there is the gift. If you'd still like to give something, we'll add a link here. Please don't bring gifts to Mexico.

will you be there?

Our RSVP form is coming soon. In the meantime, the best way to say yes is to book your suite.
