the vibe: easygoing mexican elegance
Paula and Simon’s love story began in Paris, but their adventurous spirits led them to celebrate in a place completely different yet just as magical—the Riviera Maya. Their wedding wasn’t just a day, it was a full-on experience, bringing their closest friends and family on a journey to soak in Mexico’s beauty, flavors, and vibrant energy. With the help of Diana Romo Weddings, a breathtaking oceanfront venue, sunset dinners, and a week of unforgettable adventures, Paula and Simon’s wedding was more than just a celebration—it was the start of a lifetime of beautiful memories.
In keeping with the natural vibe of the waterfront venue, Vanessa Jaimes Floral Design created chic, understated floral arrangements using all-white flowers and tropical greenery. The unique floral chuppah was crafted from branches woven together into an impressive structure and decorated with matching blush and ivory flowers and more tropical greenery.

It all started with a laid-back welcome party, where mariachi music and margaritas set the tone for the days to come. From exploring hidden cenotes to dancing under the stars and a sun-soaked pool party, every moment felt effortless and full of heart.
the fashion
Paula embodied modern Parisian grace with a minimalist gown that moved beautifully in the ocean breeze, while Simon kept it classic yet relaxed, mirroring the easygoing elegance of the celebration.
