How Cabo wedding pricing actually works ▾
  • 16% IVA (VAT) plus a mandatory 15–18% service charge apply to catering and bar at nearly every venue — and are often left out of first quotes. A $200/pp quote becomes ~$258–$272/pp on the invoice.
  • Average F&B runs ~$377/pp across Cabo weddings and ~$450/pp at 5-star resorts, before tax and service.
  • A realistic luxury all-in is about $1,400–$2,000+ per guest for the weekend.
  • Budget separately: planner $7,500–$18,000; photography $3,000–$10,000+; florals/decor $3,000–$50,000+; DJ ~$300/hr or band $6,000–$15,000; guest transfers $3,500–$7,500.
Estimates compiled from real couples' reported quotes, published venue menus, and established Cabo planners' budget guides (July 2026). Not official venue quotes — always confirm directly with the venue or your planner.

“Nobu was absolutely wonderful. I have absolutely nothing but good to say. Our concierge was very personal and informative. ... The staff was very friendly. The food was great.”

— let0niaw (Woodbridge, wedding guest), July 22 2022 · Tripadvisor

“We had my Son's Wedding at NOBU in Sep 2024, and when you get robbed (from your hotel room) on the first day it puts a downer on all the good things this facility had to offer. ... If you are planning a wedding at NOBU - please do not bring cash ... NOBU is really NO GO for me.”

“I just returned from having my WEDDING at Las Ventanas! It was a dream that has come true! Las Ventanas is truly the most amazing place on Earth!”

— jodi r (Memphis, bride), Feb 2014 · Tripadvisor

“Las Ventanas is a venue where the actual experience can genuinely align with expectations; however, there are notable trade-offs to consider. ... what tends to complicate things for couples is not the ceremony or the reception, but rather how quickly expenses accumulate once personal touches are added and events are spread out over several days.”

“We chose Esperanza because, compared to other Cabo hotels, it seemed more affordable for our wedding budget, even though it would be a bit pricier for guests. ... The other hotels were cheaper for guests but far more expensive for the wedding itself and didn't offer as many inclusions as Esperanza.”

— u/surfergirl1523, April 2026 · Reddit r/caboweddings

“We signed a contract for 30 attendees, and the total cost was roughly $20,000. ... Our original budget was $30,000, but we anticipate spending around $35,000 if the guest list expands to about 50 people.”

— u/surfergirl1523, April 2026 · Reddit r/caboweddings

“During my stay at Esperanza Auberge, I noticed that there were two weddings taking place. ... the two ceremonies I observed were held in a grassy area with a beautiful ocean view, surrounded by most of the guest rooms. I could hear a good portion of the ceremonies from my room.”

“For the big day, we wanted to keep neutral colors for the ceremony and reception to show the natural beauty of the space that had the ocean and greenery all around so we went with white flowers everywhere to create this wow factor. ... Standing in front of our friends and family who had waited so long to hear ... that we are husband and wife was amazing.”

“Stayed here for a week with my family to attend the wedding of a client. ... The property is beautiful but it's isolated and there is nowhere to go outside of the resort. ... The staff is generally very friendly. ... Will definitely come back here again.”

“So when my old college roommate and best friend announced that he was getting married in Baja ... in addition to being best man he informed me that I was also going to be presiding over their beachfront ceremony at some villa they had rented ... Over the course of the next few days Villa Santa Cruz was our home ... the place exudes a homey extravagance.”

What couples say ▾

“We selected Villa Del Arco because it was the site of a wedding. We really found it to be a gem of a resort. ... the food was awesome, the service was really great. ... The only negatives were that there was not a swim up pool bar, things shut down pretty early ... you had to fill out a ticket and total out your bill after each drink or meal — this made for a very confusing tipping situation.”

— Bill E (Lexington, KY; wedding guest), Sept 5 2018 · Tripadvisor

“Casa Acantilado is paradise! ... Our intimate wedding could not have been more perfect. Our concierge, Alex, organized the florist, photographers, wedding cake, massages, chefs, etc. Every detail was perfect.”
