Weddings at Avalon Reef Club, Isla Mujeres

With its location on a private isle just connected by bridge to Isla Mujeres, Avalon Reef Club makes the perfect spot for a quiet wedding. Guests have their choice of two wedding gazebos on property with beautiful sea backdrops, ideal for bringing home wedding photos that will capture the magic of your special day.

We recently visited Avalon Reef Club and had the chance to talk with Mónica Cruz, Avalon Resorts Weddings Specialist. Mónica handles all the wedding details at Avalon Reef Club (as well as in Avalon's Cancun properties) and talked with Lovetripper about the ins and outs of setting up a wedding on Isla Mujeres.

While religious weddings are beautiful and meaningful to many guests, they are not legal in Mexico; only a legal, civil ceremony makes the ceremony legal. For a legal wedding, what type of ceremony will the couple have?

The legal ceremony is in Spanish; the religious ceremony is in English. For legal ceremonies, I need to be in touch with the couple at least one month before the date. I have to get on the judge's schedule.

What types of religious ceremonies can you do?

I can arrange Jewish ceremonies, candlelight ceremonies, Christian ceremonies. I can also arrange church weddings.

What decorations are common for the wedding site?

Chrysanthemums are typical decorations. Brides can send me pictures of the bouquet they would like. Also stargazers and calla lilies are popular. Pretty much any flower they want, if we have it available, is possible.

Can you describe some unique weddings you've arranged?

We always try to make the bride's dreams come true. We had one wedding where, when the couple exchanged vows, they gave rings to their children also.

Where are most of the Avalon brides from?

Almost all our brides are from the United States.

What special benefits are there for weddings which include a group?

Group discounts are from 10 rooms so we can give a better price. For groups, we must have the final list at least two weeks before the date.

Do many brides have a wedding rehearsal?

The rehearsal we can do but it is not very popular.

What arrangements do most couples make for their reception?

Most receptions are at the beach with tiki torches. It is very nice. On our three packages, a Mexican trio is included and they play the wedding march. It is a very nice touch to add to the wedding.

What traditional music is often played at local wedding receptions?

The Boleros, mellow romantic music, is very traditional to play.
