Cabo Wedding on a Budget

Making Your Dream Destination Wedding Affordable

Hey, budget-savvy lovebirds! 💑 Dreaming of a sun-soaked Cabo wedding but worried about the cost? Let's explain how you can make it happen without breaking the bank.

What Does "On a Budget" Really Mean?

First things first: "budget" is relative. For this post, we'll use $15,000 as our example budget. But remember, the real magic ingredient isn't the total amount—it's how you manage your guest count!

The Secret Formula: It's All About the Guest List

Here's a simple breakdown to help you understand how far your budget can stretch:

1. Allocate 40% of your budget to venue, food, and drinks

For our $15,000 budget, that's $6,000

2. Divide that by your guest count

Example: 100 guests = $60 per person

3. Factor in tax and service

The real cost might be $44/person + tax and service (if you think about it, this is a very low projection for the real cost of these times we are living)

4. The remaining 60% ($9,000 in our example) covers vendors and decor

Is This Affordable? Possible, With Some Smart Choices!

The key to making this work? Stick to the All-inclusive packages at all-inclusive resorts. And guest list management. Here's why they're great for budget weddings:

• Built-in amenities and services

• On-site wedding coordinator (often included in the package)

• Predictable costs

Tips for Maximizing Your Budget:

1. Limit your guest list - Remember, fewer guests = more budget per person

2. Choose an off-peak date - You might score better rates

3. Embrace the natural beauty—Less decor is needed when you have ocean views and are okay with the basic set-up available!

4. DIY where possible - Personal touches can save money

5. Prioritize what matters most to you - Splurge there, save elsewhere

A Word on Additional Events

Planning welcome dinners or farewell brunches? Budget for these separately. Bespoke events over the weekend will require additional investment.

The Bottom Line

A Cabo wedding on a budget is possible with smart planning and strategic compromises. The key is to be clear about your priorities and willing to be flexible.

Pro Tip: Stick to the All-Inclusive Package

To make your budget work, it's crucial to adhere strictly to the all-inclusive package offered by your chosen All-Inclusive resort. These packages are designed to provide the best value for your money. Utilize the on-site wedding planner the resort offers - they're experts at making the most of these packages and can help you navigate any limitations or restrictions.

Remember, your dream Cabo wedding is about celebrating your love—not emptying your bank account. With these tips and a bit of creativity, you can have a beautiful, memorable destination wedding that fits your budget.
