For us, Mexico is where our love started. After first meeting in Rio de Janeiro and knowing we'd need to see each other again, Mexico was where we chose to reunite after 4 weeks apart to talk about what the heck was going on between us. It was in Mexico that we decided to call this a relationship and figure out how to make it all work. It was Mexico where we put our relationship start date as 06 Apr 2019, which the observant among you may realise puts the wedding to be hosted on our 5 year anniversary.

Why Mexico? It's where it all started...

FAQs

For those coming from Australia.... The most sensible way to travel from East Coast AUS to Mexico is via California (ie: SFO or LAX). From both of those airports, you can fly direct to Cancun. It is also possible to travel via Dubai/Europe, if desired, but it's a much longer trip. Flights transiting through USA generally leave East coast Australia either first thing in the morning, or as a red-eye late at night. At the time of writing, the most direct and quickest flight is through United Airlines; travelling Brisbane &gt; San Francisco &gt; Cancún

For those coming from the United States... Really, there are too many options to list here. We assume most would have travelled to Mexico before, be it from Washington, California or NYC. If you need help with flights, please message us and we'll be more than happy to help! Flights from Seattle generally leave in the morning, and arrive mid-afternoon, depending on layovers.Flights from LAX and NYC depart at all hours of the day and arrive accordingly. At the time of writing, the most direct and quickest flight from Seattle is with Delta; travelling non-stop from SEA &gt; CUN (7.30am - 4.06pm)

Travel

Cenotes are sunken swimming holes that are filled with crystal clear water. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of them scattered around the Yucatan peninsula to explore and they are BEAUTIFUL.

Visit a Cenote

The Chichén Itzá is one of the Wonders of the World. It is accessible via a tour or driving, about 2.5 hrs from Cancún.

Chichén Itzá

Tulum is world renowned, and it's not hard to see why. Known for it's Mayan ruins, lush jungles, bright blue water beaches, luxury hotels, some of the best Cenotes in Mexico and a growing wellness scene, Tulum is hard to miss.

Visit Tulum

While the food served in the Cancun Hotel Zone is good, if you want to try real Mexican food, you'll have to visit downtown Cancun as most of&nbsp;the best Mexican restaurants in Cancun&nbsp;are located here. Delicious tacos are just the tip of the iceberg on a food tour in Cancun!

Eat your way through Mexico

All Tequila is made in Mexico. Similar to Scotch, Tequila can only be called tequila if it is made from 100 percent Blue Weber agave&nbsp;and produced in the Mexican state of Jalisco. Take a tequila tour to taste it where it is made!

Tequila tasting tour

This eco-water park is near the Cancun area and offers you a wide array of activities like snorkeling, swimming at the Caleta, visiting Mayan pyramids, enjoying live performances, an aquarium, and an aquatic park. Oh, and did I mention you can drink there?

Spend the day at Xcaret

Tulum is a beachside paradise about 1.5 hrs south of Cancún. It is home to a number of cenotes, archaeological ruins and more.

Tulum Archaeological Zone

Las Luchas (that is what it’s called in Mexico) match takes place every Friday at 8:30 pm in Academia TWS, located in Cancun downtown.&nbsp;&nbsp; This is a very cheap and fun activity you can try for only 150 pesos (12 AUD/8 USD)

Watch a Lucha Libre show

Playa (meaning beach) Delfines is one of the many incredible white strips of sand along the Cancun hotel zone.

Playa Delfines

There are at least 15&nbsp;golf courses in and around Cancun, with courses for every level, offering unique and interesting terrain and designs that consist of cenotes, tropical jungle, mangroves, lagoons, sand dunes, and even Mayan ruins.

Play a round (or 3 ) of golf

Playa Del Carmen is just a one-hour drive away from Cancun. This is a small town, with lots of places to have fun. Restaurants, shopping malls, nightclubs, and beach clubs are just a few of the attractions in the area.&nbsp;

Playa del Carmen (where the wedding is!)

Mostly relevant to us Aussies who get ripped off for alcohol by our Governments alcohol tax. This bottle of Captain Morgan was from a grocery store for 146 pesos (approx. $11 AUD/$7 USD)

Buy rum and other alcohol for the price it should be!

Things to Do

Registry

We're doing things slightly differently...

Okay, so.. we already have enough.. STUFF Anything we need for the house, we buy. Our cupboards are full of appliances we barely use as it as, therefore we're choosing to do things a little differently than a traditional gift registry. So, let's skip the blender and create some lifelong memories instead. For our wedding, we'll be using Travelers Joy, a honeymoon registry website that allows you to contribute to our honeymoon by 'gifting' us small parts of it. For us, it will be a much more memorable way to know that everyone has contributed to us starting our married lives together (plus we won't have to cart a bunch off stuff home!) There will be a whole bunch of experiences on the list and you'll have the ability to choose whatever suits your gifting preference and budget. Of course, we do not expect gifts, your attendance to the wedding is gift enough. We fully acknowledge the journey everyone will take to share in our special day. But, for those who do choose to gift us a Honeymoon experience, you can find our Registry here: <a href="https://www.travelersjoy.com/mrandmrsmoir2024/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Aiden &amp; Chelsey's Travelers Joy Honeymoon Registry</a>
