A Beach Destination Wedding at Grand Palladium Resort & Spa in Riviera Maya, Mexico

With vibrant orange decor set against the clear turquoise Caribbean Sea, the Riviera Maya, Mexico, destination wedding of Christina McLaughlin (30 and a nurse) and Reilly McLaughlin (30 and an owner/operator) was set for a beautiful beach bash. Their wedding unfolded at the picturesque Grand Palladium Riviera Resort & Spa, an all-inclusive destination that made sure Christina and Reilly’s wedding day was stress-free and everything they imagined. “The great thing about having a resort wedding is you don’t have to think too hard about what your decorations should look like if you aren’t the type to care,” Christina says. All that mattered was saying “I do,” surrounded by loved ones under a waterfront pergola. Later, the reception took place on the sand, set with modern lounge furniture, a bonfire and a light-up dance floor where everyone partied the night away. “I think the relaxed week we had and laid-back reception reflected us as a couple,” Christina says. “We go with the flow and just wanted everyone to enjoy themselves and have a memorable time.” Milton Photography was on hand to capture all the details, below.
