A Private Beachfront Wedding Experience in the Riviera Maya
Not every couple dreams of a large resort wedding.
Some couples are looking for something more intimate: a private beachfront setting, their closest family and friends, and the freedom to celebrate their wedding in a relaxed and personal environment.
That is why Elopement Riviera Maya is now partnering with Villa Bellamar and Casa Milah in Akumal to offer a new option for couples looking for an intimate wedding experience in the Riviera Maya.
Located on the Caribbean coast of Akumal, these private beachfront properties offer a beautiful alternative to traditional resort weddings.
Whether you are planning an intimate elopement, a small wedding with family and friends, or simply a private ceremony and celebration, we can help you create an experience tailored to your plans.
Two Private Beachfront Properties in Akumal
Villa Bellamar and Casa Milah are private beachfront properties located in Akumal, offering a very different atmosphere from a traditional hotel or resort wedding.
The properties combine Caribbean views, private spaces and the possibility of celebrating your wedding surrounded by the people closest to you.
Depending on the type of celebration you are planning, you can choose between a beach ceremony or a terrace setting.
The result is a wedding experience that feels private, relaxed and connected to the natural beauty of the Riviera Maya.
Two Ways to Celebrate Your Wedding
Through our collaboration with Villa Bellamar and Casa Milah, Elopement Riviera Maya offers two ways to organize your celebration.
1. Elopement — Small wedding Beach or Terrace
For couples who want a simple and intimate wedding experience without organizing a full wedding stay.
Our Elopement option and small wedding (up to 10 people) includes the use of the venue for 2 hours, with the ceremony taking place either on the beach or terrace.
It is ideal for couples who want a private and beautiful setting for their ceremony and wedding photos, without the commitment of booking the villa for several nights.
Additional services can be arranged according to your needs, including photography, flowers, decoration, officiant, music, video and transportation.
2. Small Wedding (up to 50 people)— Stay & Celebrate
If you are planning to celebrate with your closest family and friends, you can turn your wedding into a complete Riviera Maya experience.
The Small Wedding option is available with a minimum reservation of 3 nights at the property.
Instead of simply meeting for a few hours on your wedding day, you and your guests can stay together, enjoy the villa and the Caribbean surroundings, and share the entire experience.
Your wedding can become part of a small destination getaway — from the moment you arrive until the celebration comes to an end.
The ceremony can take place either on the beach or terrace, depending on the atmosphere you prefer.
Beach or Terrace?
A Caribbean Beach Ceremony
Imagine exchanging your vows with the Caribbean Sea as your backdrop, surrounded by tropical nature and the relaxed atmosphere of Akumal.
A beach ceremony is perfect for couples looking for a natural and authentic Riviera Maya experience.
Simple, intimate and connected to the destination.
A Private Terrace Celebration
If you prefer a more defined setting, the terrace offers an alternative for your ceremony or celebration.
It can also provide a beautiful space for cocktails, dinner or an intimate gathering after the ceremony.
The setup can be adapted according to the type of event you are planning.
More Than a Wedding Venue
One of the most interesting aspects of celebrating at Villa Bellamar or Casa Milah is that the experience does not have to end when the ceremony is over.
For couples choosing the small wedding option, the property can become your private home in the Riviera Maya for several days.
Wake up by the Caribbean Sea. Have breakfast together. Spend time with your family and friends. Relax by the pool or beach. Get ready together before the ceremony.
Then, when the time comes, simply walk to the beach or terrace and celebrate your wedding.
This creates something very different from a traditional destination wedding.
Your wedding becomes part of the entire experience.
A More Personal Alternative to a Resort Wedding
A private villa wedding gives you the opportunity to create a celebration around the people who matter most.
There is no large resort environment and no need to follow the format of a traditional hotel wedding.
Instead, you can choose how you want your celebration to feel — intimate, relaxed, elegant, natural or completely informal.
And because every couple has different needs, our role at Elopement Riviera Maya is to help you build the experience around your plans.
We can assist with the ceremony and coordinate additional services such as photography, flowers, decoration, music, video and transportation.
Your Wedding, Your Way
Some couples want an intimate ceremony for two.
Others want to bring their closest family and friends together for several days.
And some simply need a beautiful private location for their ceremony and celebration.
With Villa Bellamar and Casa Milah, you have the flexibility to choose the format that works best for you:
Elopement — 2 hours at the beach or terrace.
Small Wedding — beach or terrace with a minimum 3-night stay.
Three different ways to celebrate. One beautiful destination.
