1. Architecturally Inspiring For those dreaming about a Mediterranean style wedding, but wanting the convenience of an all-inclusive tropical resort, look no further than Altos de Chavon – Casa de Campo, La Romana Dominican Republic. Choose to overlook the green valley, or have the cobblestone backdrop of the ancient-looking village.

2. A Green Wedding Looking for an excuse to tap into your wild side? Nothing says nature like waking up to the sounds of wildlife at Sandos Caracol Eco Resort in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. The “Green Wedding” is celebrated on the deck of the Cenote Cristalano, and includes some unique features like Mayan drum music, a tree planting, as well as group donations to those less fortunate nearby.

3. Underwater Wedding Located on the small island of Cozumel, Sunscape Sabor is the most complete beachfront resort complex on the island. Here you can explore the natural wonders of the second largest coral reef system in the world, the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System.
