Los Cabos has long been one of the world’s meccas for destination weddings and special events, thanks to its year-round sunshine, 
gorgeous beaches and stunning coastal scenery, not to mention the wealth of upscale accommodations and amenities.
If you’re looking for an unforgettable location to match your once-in-a-lifetime celebration, in other words, this is the place….as a huge number of happy couples can attest.
But you may be surprised to learn that the best venues for destination weddings aren’t found in luxury resorts in cape cities Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, and the best accommodations – from honeymoon suites to rooms for the wedding party and VIP guests – they aren’t found at hotels and resorts either.
They’re found at luxury villas in Los Cabos.
Not only are luxury villas the not-so-secret weapon to planning the perfect wedding in Cabo, they also offer incredible value.
Here’s why…
Location, Location, Location
It’s the first law of real estate and the first law of destination weddings.
As we alluded to in the intro, for a life-changing event like a wedding, it’s important to find a setting that can match the grandeur of the occasion.
And trust us, nothing says grandeur and magnificence in Los Cabos like the luxury villas of Pedregal. This exclusive hillside enclave offers breathtaking elevated panoramas of downtown Cabo San Lucas, as well as horizon-stretching views of both the Sea of Cortez and Pacific Ocean (depending on the vantage).
Famed as the province of vacation homes for A-list movie stars and superstar athletes, Pedregal’s luxury villas are also the venue site of choice for discerning couples…particularly those who are planning weddings for 100 guests or less.
Why is this number important?
Because this is typically the maximum guest count that can be accommodated by the expansive terraces at larger luxury villas, where either the ceremony or reception (0r both!) may be held.
Value and Versatility
When you consider the fact that your wedding venue can also double as the lodging for the bride and groom,and the wedding party, then you begin to understand just how versatile luxury villas are, and just how much value they really offer.
Do not for a moment assume all luxury villas in Pedregal are the same, or that there aren’t other spectacular villas strategically situated throughout Los Cabos. But for general wedding planning purposes, just know that the best of the region’s villas are in Pedregal in Cabo San Lucas, and that the largest offer as many as 10 bedrooms, and can accommodate up to 20 or so guests.
Meaning there’s also room for the parents of the bride and groom, should this kind of arrangement be desired.
It should also be noted that in addition to the many onsite options (indoor and outdoor) for smaller events like rehearsal dinners or cocktail parties, the best of Cabo’s luxury villas also feature large professional quality kitchens for caterers to utilize.
Surprising as it may seem, luxury villas of this size are actually more affordable on a nightly, per person basis than most area luxury resorts. So there’s not only value in their dual purpose capability, but also value strictly as an accommodations option.
Did we mention the convenience factor? If you’re already at your wedding site, that means time saved in terms of travel, as well as convenience in preparation (hair and makeup) for the bride and bridal party, as well as for any costume changes during the course of the event.
Together Time
While the bride and groom are thinking of Los Cabos in terms of the wedding and honeymoon, everyone else is also thinking of it as a vacation. Just saying!
And luxury villas – which often boast VIP amenities like infinity pools, game rooms and home theatres – certainly play into this. But one of the most underrated aspects of the luxury villa experience is the together time it can provide for the wedding party.
The bridal party, for example, can enjoy massages and mani-pedis by the pool courtesy of local mobile spa services, while groomsmen can enjoy margaritas by the fire pit…when they’re not marlin fishing or playing one of the many local championship-level golf courses, that is.
For the bride and groom, occupants of the master suite, this amounts to a pre-honeymoon, and an opportunity to spend time with those that are most important to them before the biggest day of their lives.
That’s something you can’t put on a price on. Consider it a hidden value of the luxury villa when you’re stacking up all the other values, and all the reasons why you should definitely rent one for your destination Cabo wedding.
