Step right up to Circus, the first family restaurant in Cancun designed by kids, for kids! We are kicking off Saturday evening at this vibrant, circus-themed dining spot, which features kid-approved meals, colorful desserts, and magical decor. With lively entertainment and an all-inclusive experience the whole family will love, it’s the perfect place for the "littlest" members of the crew to fuel up and play before the night’s festivities get into full swing! -- Please RSVP so we can reserve our table!

Join Annmarie for a day of sun, splashes, and zero responsibilities! Whether you're shotgunning a seltzer on the Lazy River, conquering the FlowRider wave pool, or screaming your way down the massive slides, there’s a spot for everyone. If "chill" is more your speed, come find us relaxing in the cabanas with a drink in hand. Warning: High probability of losing your sunglasses and your dignity on the surf machine

Join us under the stars for a bonfire party to officially welcome everyone to paradise! We’ll have the drinks flowing and plenty of small bites to go around. Let’s toast to the weekend under the stars and get this party started right where it belongs—on the beach.
8:00 am
Mimosas in hand, we’re taking over Awe Spa for a morning of glam and "I Do" prep. The bridal party will be getting pampered and polished while we soak up every second of the pre-wedding jitters. It’s all about the robes, the laughs, and the glow-up before we head to the shore.
9:00 am
Take the morning to soak up every bit of paradise! Whether you’re lounging poolside with a signature cocktail, hitting the beach, or exploring everything The Grand has to offer, the morning is yours to relax and recharge. Grab a spot in the sun and enjoy the calm before we get the "Shell-ebration" started!
3:30 pm
We want you to feel as breezy and beautiful as the ocean! For women, think elegant sundresses, chic jumpsuits, or flowy maxi dresses. For men, we suggest light-colored suits or linen pants paired with a crisp button-down (no ties required). Please keep the sand in mind when choosing your footwear—wedges, block heels, or dressy sandals are perfect!
Join us at Playa Caribeño to kick off the main event. Shuttles are available resort-wide or via your room; please arrive early as we will begin promptly at 4:00 PM. We ask that immediate family stay at the beach briefly for photos afterward
5:00 pm
The celebration continues at Lily Gardens! While it's a short walk from the beach, we have private shuttles waiting to escort you directly to the party. Get ready for a night of dinner, dancing, and "I Dos!"
10:30 pm
The music might stop at the Gardens, but the night is just getting started! We’re moving the celebration back to the main building to keep the drinks flowing. Families and those with little ones are invited to the Lobby Bar for a nightcap. For the adults-only crew, we’re heading to the Library Bar—a hidden, bookshelf-lined speakeasy for those who want to keep the toasts going late into the night. Come find the secret entrance and help us celebrate until the early hours!
10:30 am
We aren’t done yet! We’re hoping to trade the resort for the open sea with a private charter for a day of sailing, snorkeling, and a beach club takeover at Isla Mujeres. Please RSVP for this event by April 15th so we can gauge the group's interest! We want to enjoy this last day with as many of you as possible—however, if the majority of the crew prefers to stay and recharge at the resort, we will forgo the boat and stay poolside. Let us know if you’re "All In" for one last adventure!
7:30 pm
For our final night in paradise, we’re gathering for one last group dinner to toast to an unforgettable weekend. Join us at La Trattoria to relive the best moments of the trip and enjoy a final feast together. If you’re craving a different flavor for your last night, feel free to explore any of the other world-class dining spots at The Grand before meeting up with the crew for a final nightcap.
12:00 pm
Turn in your keys, but keep the guac & chips on the table! If you have a later flight, feel free to stash your bags and spend your final hours poolside. Gym lockers & Showers are available for a quick "refresh" before the airport. Airport Transfer can be scheduled with Gina Note on Departure: While the airport is only about 15 minutes away, Cancun Airport can be a bit of a maze. We recommend leaving the resort 1.5-2 hours before your flight to ensure you have plenty of time for check-in and security
