We love your children and welcome them to the wedding. However, Hacienda El Carmen has certain limitations on the number of rooms that can accommodate families with children. If you are planning to stay at The Hacienda, please check with Anna or Thomas first so we can help you find an arrangement that works best for you and your family. Babysitters are also available for hire at Hacienda El Carmen during the wedding weekend. When booking reservations, please inquire with the front desk about booking a sitter.
Ahualulco Del Mercado, where Hacienda El Carmen is located, is a very small, rural town outside of Guadalajara. This is considered a very safe area. However, we should note that most of the accommodations you should need during your stay will all be available at The Hacienda. If you plan to stay in Guadalajara, there are many beautiful sites to see! Guadalajara is the second-most populous metropolitan area in Mexico. It is also known to be one of the safest cities in Mexico. Nonetheless, the usual precautions should be taken as with any large city. Crimes against tourists are rare and mostly take the form of purse snatching/pick-pocketing.
Please refer to our Travel page for our recommended hotels in Guadalajara, as well as shuttle services between Zona Central in Guadalajara and Hacienda El Carmen (wedding venue).
If you are traveling internationally into Mexico, you will need a current passport (this is required for children traveling, as well). Please make sure that your passport is not set to expire during your stay in Mexico! Negative Covid tests are not required to travel into Mexico, however, they are required to attend the wedding and to return back into the US by air. Covid tests will be arranged at Hacienda El Carmen on Sunday, February 27th for anyone who wishes to get a test. Please let Hacienda El Carmen know if you'd like to reserve a test upon check-in.
The restaurant will be serving breakfast from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM on Saturday.
