Think less traditional “wedding" and more laid-back getaway with our favorite people. We’ll be taking over a couple boutique hotels, spending lots of time at the beach and pool, grabbing drinks and dinners around town, and just spending quality time together. Aside from a few planned moments, we hope you explore the island, relax, and truly enjoy the time away. We love this place so much and can’t wait to share all our favorite spots with you!
This is a very intimate wedding, so unless a guest is specifically noted on the invitation, we’re unfortunately unable to accommodate plus-ones.
While we adore your little ones, our wedding will be 21+ and invitation only. Thank you so much for understanding!
Please arrive 15-20 minutes before the start time.

In lieu of physical gifts, we are inviting whoever feels called to donate to our honeymoon fund to Japan <3
we highly recommend it! just let us know what dates you'd like to check in and check out and we'll have the hotel email you with a secure bookable link!
You’re not required to stay at one of the hotel blocks, but we definitely encourage it for more quality time together. If you’re planning to stay elsewhere, just let us know as soon as possible so we can plan accordingly.
Absolutely! We’ve done the trip ourselves and promise it’s not as daunting as it seems. Once you book your flight, let us know and we’ll help coordinate shared shuttles with other guests. And trust us—the ferry is actually the best part ;)
GETTING AROUND: Holbox is a car-free island, no cars or taxis. You can get everywhere by golf cart taxi or bike, though most places are within walking distance. CASH & PAYMENTS: We recommend bringing a mix of payment options. Exchange currency before traveling or withdraw pesos from ATMs on the island. Most places accept credit cards, but many charge an additional ~5% fee, so having cash on hand is very helpful. TIPPING: 10 - 15% is standard; 15% is common in touristy areas, with more for exceptional service. Check for “servicio/propina” on the bill first; some places add a tip automatically. ELECTRICITY & WIFI: Wi-Fi can be slow or spotty, and occasional power outages happen. It's all part of the charm, the perfect excuse to unplug and enjoy island time. BUG SPRAY IS A MUST: Mosquitoes can be especially active in the evenings. Apply bug spray before dinner or sunset beach time. SUN & HEAT: The sun is strong! Pack reef-safe sunscreen, stay hydrated + take advantage of the breeze when you can. WATER: Drinking water and ice served at reputable restaurants, bars and hotels are filtered and generally safe, but tap water itself is not potable. Bottled water is widely available. If you’re being very cautious, you might skip ice at small street stalls. ISLAND TIME: Things move a little slower in Holbox: service may take longer than you're used to, but that's part of the magic. Relax, be patient, and enjoy the moment.
