Destination Weddings at AVA Resort Cancun: Venues & Packages

Modern Elegance With a Wide Variety Of Venues for Weddings Of All Sizes

Your wedding day deserves a setting that feels just as special as the love you’re celebrating. That’s where AVA Resort Cancun comes in. As one of the newest luxury resorts in Mexico, it combines modern elegance, ocean views from every room, and a wide variety of venues perfect for weddings of all sizes.

Add in the exceptional dining, pools, and activities your guests can enjoy during their stay, and you have the ideal balance of romance and celebration.

Keep reading to see why AVA Resort Cancun weddings are capturing the attention of couples who want their big day to feel extraordinary.

Why AVA Resort Cancun Weddings Stand Out

One of the first things couples notice about AVA Resort Cancun is its unbeatable location. Just ten minutes from Cancun International Airport, it’s easy for you and your guests to arrive and settle in quickly. The resort sits along the boulevard leading into the Cancun Hotel Zone, so shopping, nightlife, and excursions are close by, yet the property feels like its own private world once you step inside.

The size of the resort is another advantage for weddings. With 1,743 rooms, suites, and villas spread across its North and South sections, there’s space to host weddings of all sizes—from intimate gatherings to large celebrations. Every room in the resort is ocean-facing thanks to its unique design, so all of your guests can enjoy stunning Caribbean views without paying extra for an upgrade.

Inside, the accommodations balance modern elegance with comfort. Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the rooms with natural light, private terraces feature two-person spa tubs, and the soothing coastal décor makes each space feel inviting. Spa-style bathrooms, plush robes and slippers, and the option to upgrade to butler service add even more luxury to your wedding week stay.

AVA Resort Cancun Activities and Amenities

AVA Resort Cancun isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a place to experience, explore, and celebrate. Your guests won’t need to leave the property to enjoy a full vacation, and that means your wedding week will feel effortless and exciting for everyone.
