Our first wedding at Hotel Xcaret Mexico was, quite literally, a dream come true. Liz and Mike are the definition of "meant to be"—fun, laidback, and 100% in love. Their story began years ago in a junior high yearbook class, but it took a decade of separate lives and a chance encounter at a concert to realize they were each other’s perfect match.

"Timing was everything for us," Liz explains. "It took those ten years apart to help us become the people who fit so well together as a couple."


But this celebration at Xcaret Mexico was about more than just two people. It was a beautiful union of three. As Mike fell for Liz, he also embraced her son, Tristan, making him a cornerstone of his life. Their destination wedding wasn't just a marriage; it was the moment they officially became a family. Liz said "yes" to being a wife, and Michael said "yes" to being a father. Capturing this "All-Fun" celebration amidst the caves, rivers, and jungle of Xcaret was an absolute honor for our team.
