Wedding plans? A tropical destination? I think it is time to explore the spectacular Los Cabos. Hi, I’m Pala, and welcome to Pala’s Photos & Kickassery. I am your ultimate destination wedding photographer (especially when it comes to Mexico). I work with couples who are laid back, want things to go smoothly, and are kinda chill about everything. If you decide to have a destination wedding in Mexico, I have some good news for you. I don’t charge travel fees. You just cover my photography fee.

Now let’s talk a bit about Los Cabos. It is by far the best destination wedding choice you can make. So, I want to give you a couple of the best Los Cabos wedding venues. Each with its own feel, you have the freedom to pick what fits you. Even though Los Cabos is considered ultra luxurious, I have managed to score some various choices (just for those of you who want to work smart with their budget).

Top Los Cabos Wedding Destinations

Grand Velas Los Cabos

If you want that wow experience, I suggest choosing Grand Velas. This Los Cabos wedding resort offers everything you need (especially if you have a long guest list). Every detail is polished – the architecture, the landscapes, the service, everything. When you have the ceremony on their big terrace, with the panoramic ocean views in the background, you will not believe your own eyes. This is the spot for you if you want a little bit of luxury and a little bit of elegance, too.

Le Blanc Spa Resort Los Cabos 

Prepare to be mindblown! This Los Cabos wedding venue is for couples who want luxe but intimate, designer but relaxed. Yes, I told you I have the perfect options for you. Le Blanc Spa Resort offers you its lush garden terraces, beach‑front spaces, pool‑terrace ceremonies, and ballrooms. Imagine your ceremony at sunset with the ocean behind you. Then you have your reception under string lights on a terrace. It’s ideal if you have a moderate guest list. Your wedding here will feel elevated, yet not too much.

Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos 

I know it’s probably difficult for you to believe that a big resort can be stylish, but hear me out on this one. Hyatt Ziva is a savvy pick if you have a larger group for your Los Cabos wedding. You get to enjoy the beachfront spaces, resort accommodations for your guests, and event staff experienced in destination weddings. This is all about balance (especially cost-wise). It’s beautiful, it’s convenient, and it’s a smart choice.

Sandos Finisterra Los Cabos

For couples who want the beach ceremony and a resort feel but are watching their budget, Sandos Finisterra is an excellent Los Cabos wedding venue. While not ultra‑luxe, it’s solid, comfortable, and still gives you an amazing photo aesthetic. Perfect if you care more about the vibe than ultra-fancy furniture.

Private Villa or Boutique Hotel 

Here’s a category rather than a single venue: Los Cabos has a rich selection of boutique hotels and private villas that are ideal for smaller weddings (think 20-50 guests), weekend stays, full buyouts, and personalization. If you want something unique, less expected, and highly customized (a villa with sea view, pool deck, terrace ceremony, dinner under the stars), this option lets you make the day yours. It also means you can redirect budget from high-end resort costs to vendor choices, décor, and photography (hello, me!).

Budget-Friendly Beach Club or Hotel Event Space 

If your priority is destination, authenticity, and photos, choose a beach club or modest hotel venue in Los Cabos. There are many options with decent event space. These Los Cabos wedding destinations often have great natural backdrops (sea, sand, palms), fewer frills, more flexibility, and you can still have gorgeous results. Your photos will look amazing, and your guests will feel the vibe. So if you care about value as much as visuals, I suggest you go for this.

My Tips For Your Choosing Wedding Venue

  • Start with guest count – Big numbers push you toward resort venues, smaller groups open up boutique/villa options.
  • Check logistics – While Los Cabos wedding venues are gorgeous, transport, guest blocks, and weather matter. Choose a venue with good guest‑access, accommodations, and plan for sunset.
  • Time your ceremony for light – Beachfront afternoon ceremonies are stunning, but midday sun means harsh shadows. Golden hour is best for your photos.
  • Budget smart – Allocate your money where it shows – great photos, good food, good guest experience. Sometimes, a less expensive venue and a better photographer mean stronger memories.
  • Ask about vendor flexibility – Some Los Cabos wedding resorts lock you into in-house vendors or require minimum spends. Villas/boutiques often offer more freedom (if that’s your priority).
  • Pick a photographer you vibe with – If you want relaxed, candid, personality-driven photos (that’s me), book someone experienced with destination weddings and Mexico logistics. I don’t charge travel fees for Mexico weddings, so you save there.
  • Match the venue to your personality. Luxe lovers pick Grand Velas or Le Blanc. Guest-friendly group? Resort like Hyatt Ziva. Boutique and intimate? Villa. Budget-conscious with strong visuals? A smaller beach club or hotel. Choose the one that you really like.

The right Los Cabos wedding venue will set the tone for your entire day – the vibe, the guest experience, the photographs, the memories. Whether you go full‑luxury, designer‑sophisticated, guest-friendly, smart mid-budget, personalized, or budget-wise, you will find a venue that matches your energy.

So the bottom line is this. If you’re a Canadian couple ready to travel, ready to celebrate, ready to collect photos that feel like you rather than just another wedding, Los Cabos is an excellent choice. And when it comes to capturing every laugh, every sunset, every crazy dance move, I’d love to be there behind the lens. After all, your destination wedding should be unforgettable. I mean, it’s in Mexico! Contact me and book my services for the best photos.
