Josemar & Kimberly’s Romantic Villa La Joya Wedding
When Josemar and Kimberly envisioned their dream wedding, they pictured romance by the sea, surrounded by their closest family and friends. Villa La Joya delivered exactly that — an intimate coastal setting where timeless beauty meets heartfelt celebration. With Villa Planners, our team of expert Riviera Maya wedding planners, guiding every detail, this couple’s Villa La Joya destination wedding in Mexico was absolutely unforgettable.
From San Diego to Kyoto to Mexico: A Global Love Story
Josemar and Kimberly’s love story began on his golden birthday in 2018. Josemar remembers it as the best birthday gift he could ever ask for. Though her number disappeared from his phone, he refused to let fate slip away. With persistence — and a little help from Verizon — he tracked down Kimberly’s number, and their love story truly began.
After years of long-distance, Josemar moved to San Diego to be with Kimberly. Not long after completing sonography school, he whisked her away to Kyoto, Japan, where he got down on one knee and asked Kimberly to be his forever.
Choosing Villa La Joya & Villa Planners
“We immediately fell in love with the breathtaking views of Villa La Joya online. We were more in awe when we visited in person. Ultimately, we picked Villa Planners because we felt like the planners knew the ins and outs of the venue and could recommend the best vendors based on their personal experiences.” – Kimberly
Villa La Joya’s oceanfront elegance and the expertise of Villa Planners created the perfect combination. With the guidance of Adriana and her team, the couple could relax, knowing every vendor and every detail was handpicked to reflect their timeless vision.
A Timeless Villa La Joya Ceremony by the Sea
In Villa La Joya’s lush garden, overlooking the turquoise Caribbean Sea, Kimberly walked down the aisle in a strapless Maggie Sottero gown. Her long hair flowed softly, with natural makeup highlighting her radiant beauty. Guests cooled off with hand fans — a thoughtful detail from Villa Planners to keep everyone comfortable in the Riviera Maya heat. The ceremony backdrop was a romantic floral arch designed by Pentaflor, featuring neutral tones with hints of blush, perfectly framing the couple as they exchanged heartfelt vows.
Romantic Cocktail Hour & Reception Details
After the ceremony, guests enjoyed cocktail hour with a refreshing local twist: popsicles from Playa Pop Paletas. This playful touch was the perfect way to keep everyone cool and smiling.
The reception was simply elegant. Tables of light wood were adorned with blush and neutral florals, candlelight, and timeless décor. Bridesmaids wore mauve gowns, while the groomsmen joined Josemar in classic tuxedos — making a dazzling dance entrance to kick off the evening.
Mariachi, Champagne & Churros — Mexican Wedding Flair
Music filled the air as Mariachi Sol del Caribe performed, featuring a stunning female vocalist who set the tone for the fiesta. Guests toasted with flowing champagne, indulged in a delicious cake by Lali Pasteles, and lined up for late-night churros served hot and sweet. Every detail felt authentically Mexican, blending tradition with modern romance.
A Multi-Generational Dance Floor Fiesta
Speeches had everyone laughing and tearing up, setting the stage for a party that brought all generations together. From the littlest flower girl to grandparents, everyone hit the dance floor. The energy was electric, proving this was more than a wedding — it was a family celebration of love. With Villa Planners orchestrating the flow of the evening, every moment felt seamless and unforgettable.
