Destination Weddings Tulum
Intentional. Tasteful. Local. A Boutique Wedding Experience Rooted in Soul & Style.
In the heart of the Riviera Maya, where the jungle meets the sea and the sunsets are kissed by golden light, Destination Weddings Tulum creates weddings that feel less like productions and more like soulful celebrations of love. With nearly two decades of experience and a passion for beautifully crafted moments, our team brings a distinct sense of artistry, intention, and connection to every event we design.
We don’t believe in cookie-cutter weddings.
We believe in experiences.
Whether you’re dreaming of a barefoot ceremony on the sand, a candlelit dinner under swaying palms, or a glamorous villa reception beneath the stars, we are here to bring that vision to life—with thoughtfulness, elegance, and heart.
Our Story
Founded in 2008 by Gwenaelle “Gwen” Grosset, Destination Weddings Tulum is the result of a love story all its own. Originally from France, Gwen came to Mexico seeking new horizons, and found herself captivated by the wild beauty, energy, and soul of Tulum. With a background in engineering and event planning, and a strong eye for detail and design, she quickly saw the potential to create something different—something meaningful.
What began as a small operation designing intimate weddings on the beach grew into one of the region’s most respected planning agencies. Today, Destination Weddings Tulum is recognized for its signature approach: celebrations that feel intimate yet grand, grounded yet elevated, natural yet incredibly refined.
With more than 15 years of hands-on experience, Gwen and her team bring unmatched expertise, deep local knowledge, and an unwavering commitment to quality and care.
Our Philosophy
At the core of everything we do is intention.
To us, intention means that every flower has a purpose, every candle is placed with meaning, and every element—from color palette to guest experience—is curated to feel personal, seamless, and deeply you. We don’t just plan weddings; we craft atmospheres. We tell stories. And we hold space for moments that truly matter.
Our work is also grounded in a sense of place. We work with local artisans, chefs, florists, and musicians who bring the spirit of Mexico to life in every detail. Whether we’re sourcing handmade textiles, designing with native florals, or incorporating cultural rituals like Mayan blessings, our goal is to create a celebration that feels both authentic and elevated.
We also care deeply about sustainability and community. Many of our décor elements are handcrafted in Mexico and reused with intention. We focus on high-quality materials, timeless design, and long-term relationships with ethical partners across the region.
Our Signature Style
If we had to describe our style in three words, they would be: adventurous, tasteful, and sensorial.
We love contrasts: the wildness of the jungle paired with fine table linens, the simplicity of sand underfoot with a glass of champagne in hand. We create weddings that are full of texture and life—rich in flavor, scent, sound, and emotion.
Our signature events include:
Outdoor dinners lit with hundreds of candles, where guests dine under the stars
Elegant ceremony setups that feel grounded in nature and effortlessly chic
Tablescapes that blend refined tabletop elements with organic materials
Cocktail hours infused with Mexican flavors, mezcal tastings, and live music
Celebrations that honor the rhythm of the place—from sunrise ceremonies to sparkling afterparties in the jungle
Every wedding we create is one-of-a-kind. We don’t reuse templates or rely on trends. Instead, we listen to you—your style, your priorities, your energy—and build a day that reflects your story in the most beautiful way.
Who We Work With
Our couples are curious, intentional, and in love with life. They’re travelers, dreamers, creatives, and visionaries. Some come to us with a strong vision. Others simply know they
