Oh, also, it was pretty hot and humid. Like low 90's. A lot of the guests were not used to the humidity - lots of frizzy hair in the pics - but no one cared - they had the time of their lives. I was a sweating mess by the end (but I was also a dancing fool, so that added to it). It was perfect during the ceremony. I had heard it gets very windy on the beach and whenever we had been there before we experienced that wind, but none this time. There was a nice breeze by the reception. I can't think of anything you need to know except that they will do EVERYTHING for you at Esencia and they have impeccable taste. I didn't need to worry about anything at all. The DJ that they have is AMAZING, the food is just out-of-control good (everything. Literally everything). I will say though, that there is always tequila being passed around and I am positive that they water it down because if I ever, in the US, drank as much tequila as I drank down there, I'd be dead. My mother is the biggest lightweight on earth and she probably had six shots of tequila at the rehearsal dinner and she was fine. That is not normal. No one ever was sick-wasted, everyone was happy drunk, and people were doing five, six shots of tequila a night. I think it's some magic potion. Stick to beer and wine. I still have my doubts about the liquor.

Del Sol was actually wonderful. I admit I am still not comfortable with my pictures showing up random places, but they are really good about it and the pictures were amazing and they are wonderful people. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. We used Denise from Eventos Euforia for our flowers and she was perfection. I adored her and she did the most fantastic job. It was funny, the flowers were the thing I cared about the least and they ended up being my favorite part - I loved everything she did and she had great ideas. I highly recommend her!!

I was married there last May and those are the photos of my wedding. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have. Getting married there was hands-down the best decision. People are still talking about it. It was a dream.

These pictures posted are from my wedding! Strange...I didn't know that they could get posted here without me knowing. Anyway, I did just get married there in May of this year. It was amazing, unbelievable. PM me if you have more questions!

I had my wedding in May 2012 at Esencia, and I swear, I almost hesitate to recommend it to anyone because I want to keep it a special, private secret all to myself. There really are no words to describe how incredibly amazing it was. The beach is the most gorgeous beach in all of Riviera Maya, the staff is beyond compare, the food - oh my God, the food - was unreal, the rooms impeccable, the entire experience was just PERFECTION. We rented out the entire resort for three days so it was just our party there and it was so intimate and wonderful. The guests all got a chance to know each other before the wedding, and we got a chance to spend quality time with all our guests before the wedding, so we were able to relax and eat and enjoy our reception - no table hopping or forgetting to eat. They did so many lovely things for us - orgnanized trips to Tulum and to downtown Playa, diving excursions for our guests. My husband and I got four complimentary spa treatments (don't even get me started on the spa - it's unreal) throughout the week we were there. Our guests are STILL talking about it and it was three months ago. We are already planning to rent it out again for a reunion of all our guests! You will not regret having your wedding here. I can't imagine ever having had mine anywhere else - it was simply beyond compare. PM me if you want more info! Good luck!

Hello all - Luz y Sonido Sound Factory is my venue's preferred DJ. I haven't heard of them at all and can't seem to find anyone who has used them. Any information you have on them would be fantastic! Thank you!
