Choosing a resort for your destination wedding is one of the biggest decisions you'll make, and it's hard to know what a property is really like from photos alone. Our Spotlight Night with Hard Rock Hotels & UNICO 20°87° walks through the resorts, the Hard Rock Wedding Packages, and what it's actually like to celebrate there, straight from the source.

We're Tina and Jayna, a mother-daughter team of Canadian destination wedding specialists. We host these sessions, and we're also the ones you'll work with from your first question all the way through your wedding day.

Two Very Different Experiences

AIC Hotel Group brings together two brands that suit opposite kinds of celebrations:

  • Hard Rock Hotels: family-friendly, all-inclusive properties across Cancun, Riviera Maya, Los Cabos, Vallarta and Punta Cana, each with an adults-only section for a quieter retreat within the same resort
  • UNICO 20°87°: a fully adults-only, culturally-immersive luxury brand, with its original property in Riviera Maya

Hard Rock Wedding Packages: Big Groups, Lots of Options

Hard Rock is the one we point couples toward when the guest list is long and the ages are all over the map. The properties are large, there's plenty to do, and the adults-only section means your friends aren't stuck poolside with a hundred children.

Worth knowing: those adults-only sections mean you can get much of an Adults Only Wedding Mexico experience without excluding the families on your list.

The Hard Rock Wedding Packages also tend to work well for couples who want the celebration to feel like an event rather than an intimate dinner. If you're picturing a reception with energy and a late night, this is the right neighbourhood.

A UNICO Riviera Maya Wedding: Smaller and More Design-Led

UNICO is the opposite end of the same group. A UNICO Riviera Maya wedding suits a smaller guest list, a couple who cares about how the photos look, and guests who'd rather have one excellent restaurant than twelve average ones.

It's adults-only throughout, so it's not an option if children are coming. But for a group of forty adults who want something that doesn't feel like a standard resort wedding, it's among the strongest options for an Adults Only Wedding Mexico has on offer.

We also look at AVA Resort Cancun and Nobu Hotels in this session, for couples wanting something more design-led again.
