If we’ve said it once, we’ve said it a thousand times (and frankly, we’ll continue to shout it for those in the back)–your wedding should be about you. Forget unexplained traditions and repeated practices that don’t match your style. Your special day should center around the things you love and the moments that matter most. That’s exactly what came to mind as we explored the new Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya resort: how absolutely perfect it is for couples who love a beach, a brew, and a good time.
This all-inclusive gem is the first of the Margaritaville resorts to go adults-only, and that exclusive ambiance is woven throughout–from the four unique bars to live music events and, best of all, the Landshark Brewery—one of the few all-inclusive resort breweries out there. Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya brings together everything you’d want in a beach getaway and wraps it up with top-notch service, great food, and romantic views.
We’ll just say, Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya has all the ingredients for a laid-back yet sophisticated celebration, just right for couples who want the best of both worlds.
Beer-Loving Couples, We’ve Found Your Venue
The Landshark Brewery sets this property apart from typical beach wedding venues. It’s far from just a novelty–it’s a wedding-ready, oceanfront oasis where bespoke ceremonies, receptions, and cocktail hours are not only possible but encouraged. One of our favorite details? You can collaborate with the onsite brewmaster to find your own signature wedding brew. Served up in personalized growlers, it’s a fun and memorable twist on the usual wedding guest favor.
It’s hard to top the view from the Landshark’s Sky Terrace–our favorite spot for toasting and sipping the night away. Your entire crew can enjoy a variety rotating seasonal brews, IPAs, malty ales, and the ever-popular Landshark Lager, all set against the serene ocean backdrop.

The Wedding Experience: Exclusivity Meets Fun
Sure, Margaritaville knows how to have a good time, but what makes it an ideal beach wedding venue is its dedication to exclusivity and top-tier service. The team only books one wedding per day to ensure that each couple receives undivided attention and resources. And for those who like a trial run, there’s the “Wedding Dress Rehearsal,” where couples can preview all the details before the main event—a rare treat in the world of destination weddings.
Flexibility is also a major bonus in the Margaritaville wedding experience. Planning your wedding becomes easier than ever thanks to a range of packages tailored to suit your taste and, just as importantly, your budget. Our ideal setup? A ceremony on the Sky Terrace—the largest in the region—with panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea. Afterward, we’d head to the cozy brewery room for a modern cocktail hour while the terrace is transformed into an intimate reception dinner space just for you and your guests.
A Resort of Amenities and Entertainment
Beyond the brewery, Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya offers plenty of options to keep your guests entertained. Flex your competitive side on the pickleball courts, unwind with a frozen margarita by the pool, or explore the high-end dining options. There’s even a scheduled roster of events that keeps things fresh for guests staying multiple days.
The resort is also a great spot for bachelor and bachelorette parties. More couples are now opting for extended wedding weekends, where the destination not only hosts the ceremony but also doubles as the venue for pre-wedding festivities, making it a convenient, all-in-one celebration spot. We’ll tease you with this: Taco Boat! And of course, no Margaritaville would be complete without the spirit of music. The entertainment options range from live Mariachi bands and DJs to instrumental ensembles, there’s no reason for any night to end without a party.

While Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya is an adults-only resort, the team has options for those who plan to invite kids to their wedding, including Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Cancun that’s just a short drive away. It’s the same great beachy atmosphere, with accommodations for the whole family.
A wedding at Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya is the ideal choice for couples who want a wedding experience that’s fun-filled, unique, and memorable for their nearest and dearest. In Margaritaville, love’s just another reason to celebrate life on island time.
