Planning a Catholic wedding in Cancun is a dream for many couples, but navigating the requirements and logistics can feel overwhelming. That’s where I come in! At Destinations by Amy, I work closely with priests, church coordinators, and resort wedding teams to ensure that your sacramental wedding is stress-free and beautifully executed. Here’s how I assist couples throughout the process.
1. Understanding Church Requirements
Catholic weddings require specific documentation and approvals, including:
- Baptism & Confirmation certificates
- Pre-Cana or marriage preparation course completion
- Letter of Permission from your home parish
- Marriage License & Civil Requirements (if needed)
I help couples understand and organize all necessary paperwork to ensure a smooth approval process with the church in Cancun.
2. Connecting with Local Priests & Church Coordinators
Each church has its own guidelines and procedures, so I facilitate communication between couples and the local priest and wedding coordinator to ensure every requirement is met in advance. Whether it’s arranging for a bilingual priest or confirming the ceremony structure, I ensure all details are addressed.
3. Finding the Perfect Catholic Chapel in Cancun
From iconic chapels like Nuestra Señora del Carmen in Playa del Carmen to beautiful resort-affiliated churches, I assist couples in selecting the perfect setting for their nuptials. Depending on your guest count, location preferences, and availability, I help match you with a venue that aligns with your vision.
4. Coordinating with the Resort for a Seamless Experience
Many couples choose to host their reception at a luxury resort following their Catholic ceremony. I work closely with resort wedding planners to ensure smooth logistics, including transportation, reception décor, guest accommodations, and group bookings.
