Meet Tayler & Curtis: Keeping It Real from the Start
When Tayler and Curtis first reached out, they were clear about one thing:
“We want this day to be about us, not everyone else.”
They were newly engaged, living in Missoula, MT, and wanted to pare the guest list way down. They knew a destination wedding was the perfect excuse to keep things intimate and avoid inviting out of obligation.
Their pain points?
- Too many choices online = overwhelm
- Wanted an all-inclusive, stress-free experience
- Concerned about guest travel logistics
- Wanted to stay on budget (aiming for ~$10–12K for the wedding itself)
- Nervous about photography quality and safety in another country
In their words:
“We liked the idea of having more freedom with less decision making.”
When I meet couples dreaming of a destination wedding in Mexico, they often express a single wish: a wedding that truly reflects who they are, one where love takes center stage, and stress is nowhere to be found. Tayler and Curtis’ wedding embodied this vision, and their Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres wedding is a perfect showcase of how beautiful simplicity and intentionality can be.
Choosing Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres for a Mexico Wedding
From our very first consultation in April 2023, Tayler and Curtis were drawn to Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres. The moment they saw the Sky Gazebo, they were hooked. The panoramic ocean views? Instant heart-eyes. As Tayler later put it:
“We fell in love with it. It had the most perfect view of the ocean.”
They also loved that the resort delivered the best of both worlds: an adults-only vibe for their suite and shared spaces, while still being family-friendly for their intimate guest list of 35.
Like most couples, they were initially overwhelmed by all the all-inclusive options in Mexico. But I helped them cut through the noise, narrow down their priorities, and confidently choose the right fit.
Spoiler: they circled back to their original favorite—and by June 2023, they had their:
✅ First-choice resort
✅ Ideal February 2025 wedding date
✅ Dream ceremony and reception venue—the Sky Gazebo
Why did this all work out so smoothly? Because they planned early.
Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres is one of the most popular wedding resorts in Cancun, and its top venues book fast—especially that Sky Gazebo. But thanks to early planning and a clear vision, Tayler and Curtis got everything they wanted.
Why Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres
Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres is the first Mexican property from the Majestic brand, known for stylish, upscale all-inclusive resorts. Located in the emerging Costa Mujeres resort zone just 45 minutes north of Cancun, this resort is a favorite for couples seeking a luxurious yet relaxed Mexico wedding experience. The property’s spacious beachfront is a favorite, with soft sand, gentle waves, and a sense of privacy that’s hard to match. Nearly 70% of rooms are part of the adults-only Elegance Club, but the resort’s layout also welcomes families, thus making it ideal for mixed-age celebrations like Tayler and Curtis’s.
The Wedding Weekend
Tayler and Curtis’ wedding weekend unfolded with ease thanks to the incredible staff at Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres. Guests enjoyed a private check-in, exclusive pools, and exceptional dining at their nine food outlets.
The Wedding Day
After falling in love with the Sky Gazebo, Tayler and Curtis knew this would be the location of all of their wedding day events.
The ceremony, cocktail hour, and even reception all took place in the same location on the property. They loved that everything was right next to each other and none of their guest had to go from one part of the resort to the other.
The couple decided to bring their own photographer from Montana, Ashley Romance Photography, ensuring their memories were beautifully captured. They also decided to splurge on aisle flowers, though with the breezy Sky Gazebo location, they quickly discovered less can sometimes be more.
The resort’s hair and makeup team exceeded expectations, the DJ kept the party lively, and every staff member contributed to an unforgettable celebration.
Tayler’s words:
“The resort did my hair and makeup and it was PERFECT. The DJ nailed my do-not-play list. Staff were so kind and fun.”
Real Talk: What They Loved (and What They’d Do Differently)
💬 What worked beautifully:
- Resort’s mix of adults-only and family-friendly sections
- The Sky Gazebo location
- Guest-friendly travel arrangements
- The resort’s onsite wedding coordinator (“absolutely AMAZING”)
- Easy payment plans for guests
💬 What they’d change next time:
- More in-depth rehearsal
- Fewer flowers (they splurged on aisle décor that got blown away in the wind)
- A little more patience with the resort’s offsite wedding planner responses (they were in peak season and slow to reply)
Overall?
“We wouldn’t have been able to plan this wedding without KP Travel Group. 100% recommend!”
✨ And in Tayler’s words:
“You have been so amazing to work with and all of your help we really couldn’t have done without you.”

Here’s the thing:
✅ Destination weddings aren’t for everyone.
