Ceremony at Villa Amaite (on the beach)

Reception at ARCA

The reception will be at Arca Tulum in the hotel zone. We will have transport from Villa Amaite (ceremony site) to the reception arranged for everyone. As the ground is gravel at Arca, we would discourage any footwear such as heels. A fancy strappy sandal or wedge would be advised.

Wedding Day Details

The best way to get to Tulum is to fly into Cancun and then hire a taxi or rent a car to drive the rest of the way. By car, Tulum is about an hour and a half drive from Cancun. As flights are being booked we will be helping people coordinate and arrange ride shares to make this as seamless as possible. Each ride share is $250 round trip and can fit around 9-10 people per shuttle. The drivers will be at the airport upon arrival and will pick up from the villa to shuttle back to the airport for departure. If you are flying from Southern California, we would highly recommend flying out of Tijuana and purchasing a ticket to use CBX to cross the border. As a separate "hot tip," we highly recommend bringing cash to the airport and exchanging your money to pesos within the airport. You will receive a much better rate at the airport than in the city of Tulum or Cancun.

Flights

There are two main parts to Tulum, the town/city and the hotel zone (beach strip). The hotel zone is beautiful, with one road that extends for several miles down the coast. On one side you have beach side restaurants and resorts and on the other you have more of the same nested into the jungle. Staying here tends to be more costly but closer to the welcome dinner and the wedding reception. We have stayed at Alaya Tulum in this area and highly recommend. The city is just a 20min drive away from the hotel zone and also a great place to say with a ton of options. Two options are Hotel Bardo or Hotel Muare. The bridal party and families will be staying at the ceremony site in Soliman Bay (about 25 minutes from Tulum town/hotel zone). It is very quiet and peaceful. For those that would like to stay in Soliman Bay as well, there is a hotel called Jashita that you can book through this website: <a href="https://www.jashitahotel.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.jashitahotel.com/</a> or a little farther out La Posada del Sol Tulum.

Wedding Party

We went here when we visited and it was an amazing experience. It's a natural waterpark with all you can drink and eat buffets.

Xel-ha Park

The entrance is centered locally in town. You can do a guided tour, take a taxi, or take the bus.

Ruinas Mayas de Tulum

There are so many beautiful cenotes (natural swimming holes) located around Tulum. If you choose to go, please do your research on transportation to and from. We highly recommend Taak Bi Ha!(pictured above)

Things to Do

Our first picture was taken in the blue ocean Covid tent in Carlsbad. This was the first time Britt let me know where she lived so I was feeling pretty good about things considering what she said before our first date haha

Proposal

Tony proposed to Brittany on September 23rd, 2022 the day before they were set to head out on a two week vacation to Italy. He coordinated with a friend to get Brittany at the tower 10 lifeguard tower in Oceanside a place where they would walk to and watch sunsets when they first started dating. Tony hid on the lifeguard tower as Brittany unknowingly walked below then he jumped down a suprised her to pop the question! She was very confused and scared of the initial surprise but quickly realized what was happening and broke down into to her signature ugly girl cry. After Tony got his YES they returned to their apartment for another surprise of a decorated bedroom with roses, candles and Don Julio. The day concluded at PCG for dinner with family.
