A perfect beach setting on a tropical Mexican boutique hotel was the ideal backdrop for Robyn & Jes

Pristine blue Caribbean ocean, white sandy beach, a glowing candlelit aisle and gold details- the makings of a truly tropical destination wedding.

Robyn & Jes dreamed of a relaxed & beautiful destination wedding at their family’s favourite hotel in Puerto Aventuras, a beautiful resort community north of Tulum and in the heart of the Mayan Riviera. Sparkling crystal blue water, white sandy beaches & beautiful tall palm trees created the most ideal wedding venue. Not to mention the first class service offered by the boutique hotel, and amazing weather we had that week!

With such a naturally stunning setting, JYW incorporated elements that elevated the already beautiful colour palette the setting offered; sparkling linens of soft ivory with rose appliqué detail, wood chiavari chairs, a lovely floral arch with soft chiffon white drapery and lush ivory rose centerpieces overflowing with greenery. The pathway along the resort pools were lined with tall black lanterns lit to create a serene glow, leading guests to the reception. One of my favourite details of the wedding was the custom gold foiled menus with laurel detailing; a perfect balance of modern & traditional.

The bride looked perfect in a beautiful lace dress from S2 Bride in Calgary, with matching lace Jimmy Choo heels. She was complemented by a soft bouquet of ivory & quicksand roses, lisianthus, stock flower and eucalyptus.

This intimate destination wedding turned out as special and lovely as the couple, and I was completely honoured to be a part of their special day in paradise… It really was magical!

Robyn & Jes

We were having a destination wedding in Mexico at a smaller boutique hotel that doesn’t do many weddings (as compared to a larger All-Inclusive Hotel that does multiple weddings every week). We had visited the hotel many times in the past and we knew it would be a beautiful intimate setting for our wedding; however, we were having a difficult time dealing with the hotel and the various vendors due to language barriers. We had an idea in our head of what we wanted but we couldn’t seem to communicate it to the hotel. Anyways, we were only a few months away from the wedding when we hired Julianne to get us over the goal post and help us realize our vision. The end result was absolutely amazing and we couldn’t have been more thrilled. The flowers were beautiful and Julianne coordinated everything perfectly. She really got what we wanted right away and took care of all of the details. Everyone kept saying how beautiful and elegant everything was and it was so nice because it really reflected our taste. Julianne was also very helpful with giving us unique suggestions for the music for the wedding. We 100% recommend her to anyone who wants to hire a wedding planner! Thanks Julianne!
