Luxury celebrations led by an Italian planner.
A luxury studio led by Italian planner Lorenzo Raggio and team, describing celebrations across the Riviera Maya, Los Cabos, the Yucatan, and Italy. Best for couples who want a polished, international approach and a planner used to coordinating guests from around the world.
A Tulum planner secures the beach club, cenote, or jungle venue, manages bilingual contracts, books trusted caterers, florists, and rentals, and runs the day so language and distance are never a barrier. On an open air jungle venue, where everything is brought in, their production knowledge is the whole job.
The wet and hurricane season runs broadly from June to October, with the highest storm risk late in that window, while sargassum seaweed can wash ashore in the warmer months. The dry season from November to April brings the most settled weather, which is also when the best planners and venues book first.
Most guests fly into Cancun, then drive around an hour and a half to two hours south to Tulum, while the newer Tulum airport adds another option. A planner arranges transfers and a room block, since Tulum hotels and venues are spread along the coast.
A legal civil marriage in Mexico involves paperwork, blood tests, and witnesses, so many couples marry legally at home and hold a symbolic ceremony in Tulum, which a planner arranges. Open air jungle and beach venues also need full production, generators, and a weather plan, which a regional planner handles cleanly.
Most luxury planners in Tulum charge either a flat planning fee or a percentage of the overall wedding budget, commonly cited around ten to fifteen percent, reviewed April 2026. Confirm the model and what it includes directly with each studio.
A good planner usually pays for themselves through better supplier choices, fewer costly mistakes, and a calmer run up to the day. On an open air jungle or beach wedding, where everything is brought in, that value is real. Treat the fee as part of the budget from the start.
Figures are indicative and reviewed April 2026. They move with the size of the wedding, the season, and the studio. Confirm fees and inclusions directly with each planner.
Tell us your date, guest count, and the kind of wedding you picture. We reply within 48 hours with a tailored shortlist of the right planners for Tulum, at no cost to you.
Tulum rewards a photographer at ease in jungle shade, bright beach light, and the glow of a cenote. Ask to see a full wedding rather than a styled shoot, and check they know the region's venues.
Local tropical flowers and natural materials suit Tulum far better than imported arrangements that struggle in the heat. A good planner pairs you with a florist whose style matches your venue, from beach club to jungle clearing.
A planner with standing books the caterers and bands that hold up through a long, humid Tulum evening. On an open air venue the choice of caterer and the power supply are yours to plan, which is where their address book earns its keep.
Established studios with real track records lead, including The Party Studio and Co., Mango Weddings and Events, Weddings on the Beach planning since 2006, and Pride Maya Weddings. The right choice depends on your style and the scale of your wedding.
For peak dates in the dry season, twelve to eighteen months is sensible, and the best venues with their planners can go sooner. Off peak dates allow more flexibility.
Expect either a flat fee or a percentage of the total budget, commonly cited around ten to fifteen percent as of April 2026. Always confirm the model and inclusions with the studio directly.
The dry season from November to April brings the most settled weather. The wet and hurricane season runs broadly from June to October, and sargassum seaweed can appear in the warmer months, so a planner plans around both.
The studios listed here run bilingual teams used to international couples, with Spanish and English standard and often more. Confirm working languages when you enquire.
