Guest Requirements & Key Details

How Far in Advance Should I Book?

There’s no strict deadline, but popular months like May and November tend to fill up fast. It’s strongly recommended to book at least one year in advance to secure your preferred date.

However, if time is limited, the Xcaret team can assist in organizing your wedding in just one month. Keep in mind that Catholic weddings require about six months to complete paperwork through both dioceses.
