A Modern Sunset-Hued Wedding in the Riviera Maya


For a couple who wanted to blend modern elegance with the timeless beauty of the Riviera Maya, a modern sunset-hued wedding at Villa La Joya was the ultimate backdrop. With its luxurious beachfront expanse, Villa La Joya became the perfect canvas for Sianna, an interior designer with a love for Japanese-inspired aesthetics, to create a wedding that felt both striking and serene. Opting for a modern sunset-hued palette, Sianna carefully selected shades of red, pink, and orange to complement the villa’s cream tones and the azure blues of the Caribbean Sea, crafting an ambiance as vibrant as it was romantic.

With Luxe Destination Weddings at the helm for planning, every detail was designed to wow. The beachfront garden of Villa La Joya, with its sweeping Caribbean views framed by gently swaying palms, set the stage for an unforgettable celebration. Guests were greeted by a fountain-lined walkway leading into the ceremony space, where rich, sunset-toned florals created a breathtaking contrast against the natural blues and greens of the landscape. Minimalist yet impactful, the ceremony saw guests seated on wooden cross-backed chairs, facing two exquisite floral arrangements where the couple would soon say “I do.”

As the bride and groom prepared to make their entrance, the sounds of “Harvest Moon” and “Hotel California” set a nostalgic, dream-like tone. Bridesmaids in jewel-toned dresses danced down the aisle to “The Stable Song,” their attire perfectly harmonizing with the vivid florals. Guests, dressed in chic beach-formal attire, added a stylish touch to the tropical surroundings, embodying the modern sunset-hued wedding vision that made the couple’s day both visually stunning and deeply personal.
