A Vibrant Love Story: Sara & Nick’s Destination Wedding at Secrets Moxché, Playa del Carmen, Mexico | Destination Wedding Planner in Playa del Carmen, Mexico
There’s something truly magical about a destination wedding in Mexico — the ocean breeze, lush tropical surroundings, and unforgettable sunsets create the perfect setting for a dream celebration. When Sara and Nick came to us at Simply Classic Events & Travels, they envisioned a wedding bursting with vivid tropical colors, personalized details, and unforgettable guest experiences. After hearing their vision, we knew that Secrets Moxché Playa del Carmen was the ideal venue to bring their love story to life.
The Vision: Bright, Bold & Beautiful From the very first conversation, Sara dreamed of a celebration infused with bright pinks, bold reds, and warm orange and yellow tones. She wanted a wedding that felt vibrant, energetic, and joyful — just like her and Nick’s love story. Our team worked closely with Sara and Nick to craft a wedding design that combined tropical elegance with modern luxury. The florals were lush, bold, and absolutely show-stopping. We blended exotic blooms like pink peonies, red roses, orange ranunculus, and yellow marigolds, accented by rich greenery for depth and texture.
Wedding Day Details Ceremony: A Tropical Paradise Backdrop The ceremony took place at Secrets Moxché’s stunning oceanfront gazebo, where the Caribbean Sea created a breathtaking backdrop. The aisle was lined with vibrant floral arrangements in their signature color palette, creating a true tropical paradise atmosphere. The couple exchanged vows under a custom floral arch, featuring cascading blooms in shades of hot pink, fiery red, and sunset orange. The emotional ceremony was filled with love, laughter, and happy tears — a memory their guests will cherish forever.
Cocktail Hour: Sunset Vibes & Signature Drinks Following the ceremony, guests were treated to an intimate cocktail hour on the Sky Deck, offering sweeping views of the ocean and sunset. We worked with the resort’s mixology team to craft two signature cocktails: • “The Tropical Bliss” - A refreshing blend of passion fruit, lime, and tequila. • “The Sunset Kiss” - A sweet and tangy cocktail featuring fresh guava and a hint of hibiscus. Guests enjoyed local-inspired hors d’oeuvres like shrimp ceviche, tuna tartare, and mini tacos, setting the stage for the incredible dining experience to come. We also had the sutest audio guest book, a total hit for all of our soon to be brides, we recommend using Aftertones or Fete Phone !
Reception: A Celebration Under the Stars For the reception, we transformed Secrets Moxché’s Beach Terrace into a bold and beautiful tropical haven. Tables were adorned with luxury linens in coral and fuchsia, and gold-rimmed chargers added a touch of elegance. We created lush centerpieces overflowing with tropical florals, paired with soft candlelight for a romantic glow as the sun set over the ocean. To add a personal touch, each table was named after one of Sara and Nick’s favorite travel destinations, symbolizing their shared love for adventure. The reception featured an unforgettable five-course dinner prepared by the resort’s world-class culinary team, followed by a live mariachi band that set the mood for dancing. Guests celebrated well into the night under the twinkling stars, surrounded by ocean breezes and heartfelt joy.
