Kristie Kelley & Ryan Myers

One again Yazmin De la Mora www.yazmindelamora.com amazes us all with a very charming and petit wedding celebration were all the elements had the exact combination to be remembered for ever.

We can start by outlining the originality of the details in this very private gathering.

This original wedding couldnt have a better cake than the muffin tower cake, were each guest can choose their favourite flavor and enjoy.


Their first dance filled the air with sparkles not only comming from the pirotecnic specialists but from their eyes, for their love could be felt in the caribbean breeze.



The climax of the vening was when the mariachi came along and made everyone feel the mexican vibe during the delicious dinner.


Now let me tell you the greater story behind this very speciall day.

We were specting 25 guests, then swine flu came its way and not everyone was able to fly to paradise.

So we had only 11 guests, and this didnt stop it from beign one of the most unique weddings we´ve ever had in Secret Jewel Celebrations.

It all starts at the sunset on the seahore with a mayan wedding ceremony, were the 4 elements water, fire, earth and air become one and give their blessing upon Kristie & Ryan.

There was a beautifull flower carpet on the beach wich just gave the atmosphere a sublime and special air.

Spectacular photos taken by the photographer Pierre Violle.

Thank you Kristie & Ryan for sharing this very special day that really touched our lives!

My sincere admiration to Yazmin de la Mora and all her crew who made it all posible..... see you soon!!!

A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN!!

Ara & Robert´s wedding was the unique mixture of romance and fun that made this special day even greater.
The theme was all set up in wite and green, with a clasic but yet modern center table piece that combined both flowers and sea shells; they had a big star fish candle gift for every guest.


Their first dance was a blast all made possible by HITS BAND www.hitsband.com

ME QUIERO CASAR POR LA IGLESIA EN LA PLAYA

Esta frase hace algunos años era casi imposible debido a que la iglesia católica había establecido que cualquier sacramento celebrado fuera de una Iglesia y directamente en la playa no tuviera validez oficial.

Actualmente este ya no es el caso y a lo largo de la Riviera Maya podemos encontrar Capillas Católicas Autorizadas que tienen como objetivo único cumplir con el sueño de los que anhelan poder casarse por la iglesia pero frente al mar.

Y como no querer tener una boda así, si cuando esta uno en el altar viendo al horizonte del mar caribe, con esos colores; que aunque llevo mirándolos mas de 20 años no me canso nunca de su espectacular belleza; uno piensa: -esto es probablemente lo más cercano a Dios y al paraíso, que jamás estaré.

En tu boda cuando el altar esta a escasos metros de donde rompen las olas y donde las conchas se convierten en arena; dejar una lagrima correr por la emoción que crea este momento sagrado es casi imposible.

Poder declarar amor eterno, promesas y el comienzo de una nueva vida juntos ante la bendición del todo poderoso no puede ser mas sublime y más especial que ahí frente a la inmensidad del océano; con la vista fija en el horizonte, es sin lugar a dudas el momento culminante de la ceremonia.

En las diferentes capillas que encontramos a lo largo de nuestra hermoso corredor turístico Cancún – Tulum se encuentran las capillas dentro de los hoteles y Resorts, o las capillas semipúblicas para ceremonias más exclusivas. Algunos de los requisitos por los que estas capillas deben de pasar son: ser bendecidas por el Obispo, según el rito prescrito en los libros litúrgicos; reservarse exclusivamente para el culto divino y quedar libres de cualquier uso doméstico. Uno de los puntos más importantes es que una vez concedida la licencia, la capilla no puede destinarse a usos profanos sin autorización del mismo Ordinario.

En el corazón de la Riviera maya encontramos una de estas Capillas aprobadas La Capilla de Nuestra señora del Silencio, ubicada en Playa del Secreto. Este mágico lugar se encuentra a escasos metros del mar, y es sin temor a equivocarme de los lugares favoritos del mismo Obispo, que muy emocionado aboga por la difusión de su existencia, para poder ponerla al alcance de más personas que comparten un deseo en común; guardar en sus recuerdos las palabras del Padre: -“Lo que Dios ha unido, no lo separe el hombre”- teniendo de fondo la banda sonora de la naturaleza, el melodioso sonido producido por el suave y delicado vaivén de las olas del mar.

Si estas pensando en una ceremonia frente al mar, pero te daba miedo que no tenga validez oficial para la iglesia católica, seguro después de leer esto te sentirás aliviada de saber que el lugar donde podrás celebrar la boda de tus sueños se encuentra más cerca de lo que imaginas.

La Morena y El Guero

This is the vey first wedding we had in Secret Jewel Celebrations.
The story is actually really cool. I met Sol and Matt when they came to see our location for their wedding, they immediately fell in love with our place. But 4 months prior to their wedging date Dec 6, 2007 a big hurricane came and everything was lost, most of our palm trees, and plants and our natural water hole was filled up with sand. I remember when they came back to see the place they were afraid it wouldnt be done by the time of their wedding.








http://www.delsolphotography.com/WORLD CLASS PHOTOGRAPHERS Sol & Matt this wedding was a dream come true for us, you may imagine the hundreds of incredible pics we now have from their magical wedding.







We promised to be ready for their dream wedding on the beach, and had about 80 men working day and night until the day came. And we were ready.

Imagine 90% of your guests beign photographers from around the world, Sol & Matt got over 1000 pics from this very special day, you can see their favorites www.soltamargo.com/blog/index.php?entry=entry071216-160227





We formed a very nice team with their wedding planner http://www.yazmindelamora.com/ who took care of the ceremony details, the mayan dancers and the Chaman.

The decoration, table set up and flowers were the creation of a very talented artist Roberto Caamal http://www.spectacular-events.com/

Catering was provided by http://www.easygourmet.com.mx/ and trust me when it comes to fine dinning at excelent prices this is the way to go. Fine, Easy & delicious.
