My Fiancée and I first visited Cabo when we were dating in college. We were 21 and looking forward to partying the entire trip. However, on our first night there we were surprised to find ourselves on the beach having the most romantic dinner ever. It was a warm night, the moon was full, and the waves were crashing against the rocks.
That was four years ago and we were too young to fully appreciate the romantic side of Cabo. We literally spent the rest of that trip partying and throwing back margaritas. But now I appreciate all of the elements Cabo has to offer. I think Cabo can be lots of fun, romantic, relaxing, and family friendly. I've visited many times, and we will be back in July before our wedding next year.
In my opinion Cabo is more fun than Maui, and more romantic and less hectic than Cancun. It's also very beautiful, and in a great location. We're from the Bay Area, and its about a 3 hour flight from us, and for my family on the East Coast, it takes about the same time to fly to Cabo as it does to fly to S.F. (approx. 5 hours.)
To sum it up Cabo has all of the elements we're looking for in a wedding location. So, good luck Jen on finding your perfect location!
