The Riviera Nayarit is the perfect destination to say: “I do.” Couples can enjoy each minute of the best day of their lives, helped along by a professional coordinator that will take care of every detail: from the judge or minister for a spiritual or civil ceremony to the best hotel, transportation, the reception, décor, dresses, bouquets, and much more.

Below are ten reasons why it’s worth choosing this tourist destination:

1. Variety of locations

From its wide range of luxury resorts and private settings with a harmonious blend of lush natural landscapes with endless ocean views to cultural details like a Huichol ceremony, the Riviera Nayarit offers unforgettable experiences for couples and their guests.

2. Easy access/connectivity

Accessibility is an essential factor, as it eases the transfer of family and guests. The Riviera Nayarit guarantees connectivity, whether by land, sea, or air. Before the pandemic, its international airport welcomed flights from the main destinations in Mexico, the United States, Canada, Europe, and South America. Currently, connectivity with Europe and South America is limited.

3. International gastronomy

The Riviera Nayarit’s gastronomy is one aspect that leaves all of its visitors wanting more. Visitors to the destination have a fantastic opportunity to savor a wide range of food options, including traditional Nayarit cuisine, whether at the informal beach eateries or prestigious gourmet restaurants. Its offer is full of history and traditions, a defining element that ensures the palates of the couple and their guests will be more than satisfied.

4. What to do the day after the wedding

In addition to its picture-perfect locations, both the newlyweds and their guests can find plenty to do in the Riviera Nayarit and its more than 300 kilometers of virgin coastline framed by the Sierra Madre mountains. They can rent luxury yachts, head out on a snorkeling or diving tour, surf one of the beaches with the best waves in the Pacific in Sayulita, find endless opportunities to commune with nature, shop, or enjoy the cuisine of Nayarit in any of its gourmet restaurants.

5. Warmth and hospitality

The traditional warmth and hospitality of the people of Nayarit is a beautiful part of weddings held in the Riviera Nayarit, where the bride and groom and their guests will enjoy an unforgettable experience.

6. Qualified professionals

There’s nothing better than having expert guidance when a young couple is planning to get married. This is especially true for destination weddings, when a wedding planner is vital for the event’s success. Puerto Vallarta and the Riviera Nayarit are home to the Romance Industry Association (AIR), gathering the best wedding planners and local suppliers. These professionals continuously undergo training and workshops to offer weddings tailored to the wedding couple and their guests.

7. Perfect climate nearly year-round

The Riviera Nayarit owes much of its charm to the excellent climate it enjoys nearly year-round. Average temperatures range from 25 to 28 degrees Celsius (78 degrees Fahrenheit), making it quite pleasant to visit any time of the year and an excellent choice for visitors looking to escape harsh northern winters. However, summers can be a bit hot for some, with average temperatures hovering around 32 degrees Celsius (90 degrees Fahrenheit). The rainy season begins in June and ends around October.

8. Multicultural weddings

The Riviera Nayarit is home to wedding planners specializing in multicultural weddings, meaning they are perfectly qualified to meet the requirements of couples and guests from other countries. Besides the traditional Catholic marriage, these specialists can organize Jewish, Hindu, and Persian ceremonies and even traditional Wixarika spiritual unions.

9. An inclusive destination

The Riviera Nayarit offers a wide variety of options for the LGBTQ+ segment. In 2013, Nayarit joined the Mexican states that could perform egalitarian marriages once the local congress approved modifying the Civil Code. Since then, same-sex couples can marry in the destination and the entire state of Nayarit without requesting an “amparo” or order of protection.

10. Biosafety protocols

The Riviera Nayarit’s hotels welcome guests with their already-famous high quality as well as the most advanced safety and hygiene protocols. There was a reason the destination received the Safe Travels Stamp awarded by the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) to destinations that comply with the health protocols established for tourist concerns to combat COVID-19.
