Wedding Tips

If you are planning your wedding, here you’ll find helpful wedding tips from the perspective of someone who has photographed hundreds of celebrations in different destinations. My goal with these posts is to make your planning easier and calmer, sharing what actually works during a wedding day based on real experience.

These wedding tips come from real couples, behind the scenes moments, and situations I see all the time as a destination wedding photographer. Whether you’re looking for guidance, ideas, or practical advice for your big day, I hope this space becomes a useful and stress free corner while planning your wedding.

Resort or private villa? It’s easily one of the fi Resort or private villa? It’s easily one of the first big questions couples ask me when planning a destination wedding in Punta Mita.

Having photographed celebrations across both ends of the spectrum on the peninsula, from full-scale beachfront resorts to hidden cliffside estates, the choice always comes down to how you want your weekend to feel.

A luxury resort gives you turnkey hospitality, built-in accommodations, and world-class amenities where all your guests stay in one place.

On the flip side, renting a private villa offers 100% seclusion, zero outside vendor fees, and total freedom over your timeline, meaning your wedding day unfolds without a single stranger in sight.

I just published a complete breakdown on the blog comparing guest capacities, vendor policies, and noise curfews for Punta Mita’s top venues (including Four Seasons, St. Regis, Susurros del Corazón, Casa Wirikuta, and Casa Koko).

If you’re currently weighing your options, head to the link in my bio to read the full guide.
