Why it stands out

Scenery9.5Venues9.2Lodging9.2

At the tip of the Baja peninsula, Los Cabos puts desert cliffs and giant cacti against the blue Sea of Cortez, a look no other wedding region can copy. It is the luxury pole of Mexican weddings, with celebrity grade resorts, farm venues in the foothills, and almost guaranteed sun. Best for couples who want drama in the landscape and polish in the service, and who accept a higher spend than the Caribbean side.
