How do I plan an elopement in Tulum? I get this question a lot! For a good reason, Tulum is a beautiful beachy laid back town in the intimate coastal part of Mexico. Its intimate reputation comes from it being nestled around white sandy beaches, green palm trees, and the quiet peaceful sound of the ocean waves. It’s rooted in the historical backdrop of ancient ruins and beautiful cenotes. 

Tulum has been named one of the top wedding destinations and locations for ceremonies and elopements and it is only expected to grow in the next few years. Weddings are a frequent event there and with the pandemic taking a precedent in marriage ceremonies, the elopement choice for a Tulum venue has also risen so much!

So you might be wondering, where do I start? Elopements are on the rise and it’s a great choice for those who want a more laid back ceremony and really want to put the focus on you and your partner. Elopements take away the stress of planning such a big event as a full wedding ceremony and reception. In this blog I will discuss 5 easy ways to start planning your elopement in Tulum!

4. Let’s Talk Makeup and Hair


I always tell my clients that on their wedding day they should always feel at their best. Hair and makeup especially from these talented artists dont mask a client, but bring out their natural features and make them shine on their special day. They will make you look even more beautiful! With all the prep that goes into an elopement, from the dress to the shoes, your hair and makeup should be something you don’t have to think twice about. You can walk out on your special day feeling confident and so in love! I’ve listed some of my favorite makeup artists I’ve worked with in Tulum down below!

4. Get a Rental!


Rentals are so important especially for elopement ceremonies. For couples who want a dinner set up or picnic after their ceremony, rentals are the way to go.  A romantic picnic down by the beach after an elopement? Doesn’t that sound so dreamy? For couples going down that route, I’ve listed some of my favorite rental companies down in Tulum. These rental businesses really capture the essence of Tulum. Having worked with many wedding couples and elopement couples, they will definitely find what you need and want for your big day.

"We are so happy we decided to have Lety capture our wedding."

My husband and I both knew it was very important to have beautiful photos for future memories of our wedding. We are so happy we decided to have Lety capture our wedding as the photos turned out amazing. She was extremely flexible due to covid.

MAYA & LUIGI

"Would absolutely recommend if you need to book a destination wedding or engagement session.."

Working together was a dream! Her expertise and clarity with shooting and prompts was top notch- you can really tell she has the experience and know how of a seasoned wedding photographer. Would absolutely recommend if you need to book a destination wedding or engagement session. We shot with Lety in NYC and she handled the city like a pro !

Emily & Kevin

"Lety is the vendor I was most confident in."

Working with Lety has been a dream! We booked her for our wedding this past weekend, and had an engagement shoot as well. Lety is so fun to work with, and her work is absolutely gorgeous! A friend even said we should use her photos as wallpaper :)
She makes us feel natural and nothing felt awkward at all
Out of all the vendors I hired, Lety is the vendor I was most confident in - she made it so easy for everyone being photographed feel relaxed and made it fun! Cannot recommend her enough
“If she can make my face look good in photos, she can make you look amazing” -husband

ERIN & MATT

"Working with Lety was a complete dream!!"

From the 1st meeting we had with her, she was super interested in getting to know us as a couple. This shows up in our pictures. She totally nailed our love, and how much we value having fun together. On the day of the wedding, she worked seamlessly with our other vendors and made us feel at ease. When you hire a wedding photographer, you hope that you get a handful of good pictures after the wedding that you like. For us, we have so many beautiful shots, they look like artwork, and I can’t wait to get them hung on walls. Lety takes such pride and dedication in her work. She truly cares about the couples she works with. We loved working with her!
