Puerto Vallarta Destination Weddings for Every Type

Puerto Vallarta destination weddings are consistently ranked among the most gorgeous weddings you can have – and for many reasons. Located on the Pacific side of Mexico, the natural wonders of the area contribute to your dream Mexico wedding. The backgrounds of your wedding photos can highlight everything from the famed sunsets to the deep, blue waters just off the coastline.

One of the great things about a Puerto Vallarta destination wedding is that you can still get everything you want – a wedding on the beach, a wedding inside, a party that goes all night long, or something small and intimate. Since Puerto Vallarta is so popular as a destination, it is also far more accessible for family and friends to actually make it to your ceremony – and it will be in a place people actually want to go with numerous resort options to explore.
