Xcaret Wedding Packages: Reviews & Comparison

I think we can all agree that the cost of a wedding can often sneak up on you. Even a small upgrade in the type of china or napkins can start to rack up the bills. When it comes to deciding between different options for your wedding, it can be hard to really know what you’re getting for your money.

Maybe one venue sounds a lot cheaper, but when you factor in all the necessary add-ons, it may not be. To help you make the best decisions, I have gathered many reviews and analyzed the costs for this thorough comparison.

First things first, while there are some differences among the three Xcaret wedding packages, one thing you can be certain about is that at any of these Xcaret locations, you will have the most romantic and unique scenery in Cancun and Riviera Maya for your wedding.

With Hotel Xcaret Mexico and Hotel Xcaret Arte, you have the comfort of preparing and having your wedding right on site! That will cut down on the cost of transportation and save you a lot of time and hassles.

For a small wedding, Hotel Xcaret Mexico and Hotel Xcaret offer better value. However, if you have a big wedding (over 100 people), Xcaret Park tends to be the cheaper option.

Hotel Xcaret Mexico Wedding Package – Best Value Full-Serviced Wedding Package

Hotel Xcaret Mexico wins the best value option because it has the most comprehensive wedding packages. Although the Deluxe package seems to be the most expensive, it offers stress-free planning and a combination of beautiful settings in one place.

You’ll be able to get ready in the same hotel where you’ll get married, and you can take in the breathtaking ocean views at sunset right after you say “I do.”

You also get a lot of additional benefits that will add a nice touch of luxury to your wedding such as romantic amenity on the wedding night, romantic breakfast the day after the ceremony, upgrade to the next category suite available, clothes Ironing, and a gift certificate for your anniversary!

Now, if you want to cut costs, you can totally go with the Romance package. After your ceremony, you can do your wedding games and first dance during the cocktail hour! After that, the wedding party can head to one of the specialty restaurants on-site and have dinners (for free – since it’s already included in the all-inclusive hotel price).

Want to be even more frugal? You can go with just the ceremony package. The downside is you won’t have a private venue to celebrate after the ceremony.

Hotel Xcaret Arte Wedding Package – Best for Wedding Party of All Adults

Hotel Xcaret Arte is newer than Hotel Xcaret Mexico and caters to guests from age 16. Its combination of a stunning beachfront setting, unique caves, and well-crafted luxury details is perfect for a grown-up event with close friends and family.

Although I prefer the hassle-free full-serviced wedding package at Hotel Xcaret Mexico, I think it’s worth considering Hotel Xcaret Arte if your wedding party has all adults.

Xcaret Park Wedding Package – Great for Big Wedding

With Xcaret Park, the ancient Mayan ruins and lush flora will provide a lovely backdrop for your wedding. At first sight, it seems to be much cheaper than having a wedding at the hotels. However, if you look closely, you will realize that a lot of wedding packages cannot be booked separately.

For example, although the El Caracol Wedding Ceremony package only costs $835, you can only book it if you have the reception at El Caracol La Isla – which costs $4,700! If you have a big party, this price doesn’t seem too bad. However, if you have a small party, the costs would definitely add up.

That’s why I think you should consider Xcaret Park only for a big wedding of over 100 people. For smaller weddings, you would get more value for your money at the two Hotel Xcaret all-inclusive resorts.
