Magical reception

Their reception glittered with string lighting that peeked through fabric and romantic chandeliers over the dining area. The elegant centerpieces were low so everyone would be able to mingle as they enjoyed the delicious dishes created by the talented Juan Pablo Loza and creative Fidel Baeza of Rosewood Mayakoba. After hours of dancing to the creative musical collaborations produced by the upbeat party starter Dulce Gomez, they closed the night with delicious s'mores while snuggled up around a fire pit on the beach.
