Madith and Robert Tie the Knot at Villa la Joya Riviera Maya

By the light of the afternoon sun, Madith and Robert united their nearest and dearest to celebrate their love forever at their Villa la Joya Riviera Maya wedding. Adriana of Villa Planners worked with the couple in love to bring their destination wedding vision to life in a bohemian fantasy with some fun surprises and a whole lot of family amor.

Why did you choose Riviera Maya, Mexico for your destination wedding?

I chose Riviera Maya, Mexico because of the beautiful ocean and the divine weather. It makes the perfect dream wedding.

What made you decide on Villa La Joya?

I came across Villa La Joya online. It checked off all my expectations in what a perfect beach wedding is and it was just that. 

Garden wedding ceremony in the Riviera Maya in romantic, bohemian style.

Madith and Robert joined together in a moving ceremony surrounded by the love of their closest family and friends. The bride was spectacular in a corseted bridal gown by Janene’s Bridal and groom Robert wore a magnificent Filipino “barong”. This traditional embroidered garment is worn to weddings and festivals in the Philippines. It is similar to the “guayabera" of Mexico!

What was your favorite/most emotional or funniest moment of your wedding day? 

Our favorite and most emotional part of our wedding was finally seeing each other at the altar. I knew I was emotional during my get-ready. I thought to myself to “Cry now before getting my makeup done”. Then, when I saw my soon-to-be husband crying, I knew that this is the moment I want to remember, him & I embracing each other with the presence of our closest loved ones.

Beachside destination wedding reception in the Riviera Maya at Villa la Joya

Madith and Robert welcomed their guests to eat, drink and be merry in their reception by the sea at their private villa wedding in Playa del Carmen. We LOVED the bohemian feel of the sweethearts table and all the florals in champagne tones. The overhead centrepieces by Floreria Fiore of dangling blooms and pampas grass were total conversation starters and absolutely unique.

There were so many memorable details, Adriana of Villa Planners assembled the best Riviera Maya wedding planners. From the translucent dance floor over the pool, dry fireworks, incredible dessert table and cake to the newlyweds kicking the party into high gear with their laser smoke guns (you have to see them), this was a uniquely personal Riviera Maya wedding.
