What happens when a political powerhouse and a Hollywood comedian fall in love, survive a pandemic together, and plan a “more is more” wedding celebration? You get Estevan and Michael’s unforgettable Los Cabos three-day wedding. Three days of pure joy, vibrant fashion, heartfelt performances, and a surprise appearance from none other than RuPaul’s Drag Race superstar Alyssa Edwards.<\/span><\/p>\n

Set in stunning paradise, their <\/span>wedding weekend<\/span><\/a> was designed as a true reflection of who they are: bold, joyful, sentimental, and endlessly stylish. From a white-themed garden fiesta to a disco-inspired beachfront reception, the couple created a once-in-a-lifetime experience that celebrated their love, their culture, and their creativity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Their relationship began in the most unexpected way and was built through backyard dates, socially distanced hikes, and late-night conversations through a global pandemic. “If we could survive all that,” they said, “we knew we could thrive in marriage.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The wedding itself? That <\/span>vision<\/span><\/a> started with a single spark—sequin jackets in cheetah and snow leopard prints from <\/span>Dolce & Gabbana<\/span><\/a>. “That became the entire foundation for the look and feel of the day.” Pink and green, inspired by Michael’s favorite color and Estevan’s love for Cabo’s natural beauty, set the tone for everything from the <\/span>florals<\/span><\/a> to the monogram. And Estevan had one non-negotiable: <\/span>fireworks<\/span><\/a>. “Everything else was built around that.”<\/span><\/p>\n

With the help of an incredible <\/span>local team<\/span><\/a> who matched their bold ideas and kept them grounded, Estevan and Michael brought their spectacular special day to life and gave their 102 guests a celebration they’ll never forget.<\/span><\/p>\n

Creating a Three-Day Wedding of Magic and Meaning<\/span><\/h2>\n
Their three-day wedding officially began with a <\/span>welcome party<\/span><\/a> at <\/span>El Huerto<\/span><\/a>, where guests dressed in white for a garden soirée dubbed “Fiesta Blanca.” Set among blooming greenery, the space was filled with playful Mexican details, including a hand-painted pink bar adorned with hanging piñatas, a friendly Baja donkey, and a Mexican doll whose skirt held—yes—tequila shots. “The hand-painted bar was definitely the highlight of the day. It immediately set the tone: fun, colorful, and full of heart.”<\/span><\/p>\n
For the <\/span>rehearsal dinner<\/span><\/a>, the couple leaned into a “Jungle Chic” theme at the tropical paradise of <\/span>Acre<\/span><\/a>. After spending time with rescue pups on the property, guests gathered in the open-air Blue Room, surrounded by natural textures and warm, earth-toned florals. It was the perfect mix of casual and curated.<\/span><\/p>\n
But nothing topped day three—the wedding day itself. Held at <\/span>The Cape Hotel<\/span><\/a>, their “Haute Tamale” vision came alive in a dramatic beachfront setting with the Sea of Cortez and Land’s End as the backdrop. The vibe? Masculine-meets-maximalist, with tropical disco flair. Pink orchids, lush greenery, mirror balls, and custom menus inspired by their Dolce & Gabbana tuxedos created a high-fashion experience grounded in love and joy. The space was completely transformed into a vibrant, immersive celebration.<\/span><\/p>\n

Using Fashion as a Starting Point for Their Three-Day Wedding Vision<\/span><\/h2>\n
Estevan and Michael’s Los Cabos wedding wasn’t just fashionable, it <\/span>was<\/span><\/i> fashion. Their entire design vision was born on a spontaneous stroll through Rodeo Drive, where they spotted sequin jackets in bold cheetah and snow leopard prints at Dolce & Gabbana. “That was the basis for the wedding vision. We wanted everything—menus, florals, signage—to reflect our style.”<\/span><\/p>\n
And they meant it. Their looks were thoughtfully curated for each event and set the tone for the celebration’s vibrant aesthetic. For the welcome party, they wore custom <\/span>Zegna<\/span><\/a> suits paired with <\/span>Gucci<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Versace<\/span><\/a> accessories. The rehearsal dinner brought a cooler, earthier vibe with tailored <\/span>Bode<\/span><\/a> suits and shoes from <\/span>Tom Ford<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Taft<\/span><\/a>. But the showstoppers were their wedding-day <\/span>Dolce & Gabbana<\/span><\/a> tuxedos, complete with sequined jackets and statement shoes from <\/span>Alexander McQueen<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Christian Louboutin<\/span><\/a>. Those tuxes didn’t just turn heads; they inspired the floral design, color palette, even the custom dance floor.<\/span><\/p>\n
Before the ceremony, the couple shared a quiet, emotional <\/span>first look<\/span><\/a> at the Rooftop Penthouse of The Cape Hotel. With sweeping views of the Sea of Cortez and the iconic Land’s End in the background, the moment gave them a chance to soak it all in together—just the two of them—before the celebration kicked off. It was, as they put it, “magical.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Making the Ceremony the Heart of Their Celebration<\/span><\/h2>\n
For Estevan and Michael, their Los Cabos wedding wasn’t just about the aesthetics. It was about emotion, intention, and unforgettable moments. And while their celebration was packed with jaw-dropping design, it was the love at the center of it all that truly stole the show.<\/span><\/p>\n
The ceremony space was thoughtfully simple, letting the beauty of Los Cabos shine. A pink <\/span>floral arch<\/span><\/a> framed the couple as the Sea of Cortez sparkled behind them. “We really let the ocean do most of the work.” Guests entered through doors adorned with their custom invitation logo, a personal touch that tied the entire experience together.<\/span><\/p>\n
Much to the guests’ delight, the surprises kept coming.Estevan, once a professional musical theater performer, serenaded Michael with Adele’s <\/span>“Make You Feel My Love.” <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
“Michael had never heard me sing before,” Estevan said. “It meant so much to surprise him like that.” There wasn’t a dry eye in the room. Then, Michael brought the house down with a surprise stand-up set. “By the end of my set, everyone’s cheeks were sore from smiling and laughing so hard,” he said. <\/span><\/p>\n
After their emotional <\/span>vows<\/span><\/a>, they slipped away for golden hour portraits by the sea. “We went to the beach right after the ceremony. It was the most magical moment—just the two of us, soaking it all in.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Celebrating Their Roots Through Design<\/span><\/h2>\n
While Estevan and Michael’s big day was undeniably stylish, it was also thoughtfully curated. “We wanted vibrant <\/span>colors<\/span><\/a> that represented Mexico. The style was organic and loose, modern and tropical.” Their custom pink and green monogram brought together Michael’s love of pink and Estevan’s appreciation for Cabo’s natural beauty—a theme that echoed across all three days of celebration.<\/span><\/p>\n
Florals<\/span><\/a> played a starring role in the design. As the sun dipped behind the Sea of Cortez, the reception space transformed into a lush, tropical disco. Exotic blooms in bold shades of pink and crimson were paired with leafy greens, tropical fruits, and glittering disco balls. To balance the vibrance, black tables and chairs were mixed with natural wood for a look that was both elevated and approachable.<\/span><\/p>\n
But this wasn’t just a beautifully styled wedding, it was an immersive experience. “The buildout required a lot of coordination. From the <\/span>hand-painted dance floor<\/span><\/a> to the grand piano to the custom LED wall, we wanted every detail to surprise and delight.” Towering floral installations, moody <\/span>lighting<\/span><\/a>, and cascading greenery made the entire space feel alive—exciting and elegant all at once.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why the Right Venue (and Planner) for Their Three-day Wedding Changed Everything<\/span><\/h2>\n
For Estevan and Michael, choosing Los Cabos as their three-day weekend <\/span>wedding destination<\/span><\/a> was both personal and practical. “We’re both Mexican, and our mothers immigrated from Mexico, so having a Los Cabos wedding felt like returning to our roots,” Estevan shared. “Plus, I love the water, and Michael loves a party. Cabo gave us everything we wanted.”<\/span><\/p>\n
The couple spent 18 months <\/span>planning<\/span><\/a> their celebration with the help of an incredible local wedding team who matched their personalities and helped bring their bold ideas to life. “The mantra of our wedding planning process was <\/span>more is more<\/span><\/i>, and we’re glad to say we were right.” <\/span><\/p>\n
Their biggest advice? <\/span>*Hire a <\/span><\/i>**planner<\/span><\/i><\/a>. “You’ll never regret it, and you’ll save yourself a few gray hairs.”<\/span><\/p>\n*

Go Big or Go Home (Yes, That Includes Fireworks and Drag Queens)<\/span><\/h2>\nIf you’re wondering what truly made this Los Cabos wedding stand out, it’s hard to top <\/span>fireworks<\/span><\/a> and drag royalty. Estevan had only one non-negotiable when venue hunting: it had to allow fireworks. Once they found the perfect spot at The Cape, everything else followed.<\/span><\/p>\n
As if all that wasn’t enough, they flew in Alyssa Edwards of <\/span>RuPaul’s Drag Race<\/span><\/a> fame to get the dance floor going. “Flying in Alyssa was one of the most unique parts of the night. Our guests were completely blown away.”<\/span><\/p>\n

A Final Piece of Advice<\/span><\/h2>\n
Looking back on their three-day weekend Los Cabos wedding, Estevan and Michael agree—some of the most meaningful moments were the quietest ones. “Take a private moment with your partner after the ceremony,” they said. “It’s easy to get swept up in the excitement, but pausing to soak it all in helped us stay <\/span>present<\/span><\/a> and truly appreciate what we just experienced together.”<\/span><\/p>\n
From a long-distance start and pandemic love story to a celebration filled with intention, laughter, and unapologetic flair, Estevan and Michael’s wedding journey is a reminder that there’s no one way to do it right—there’s only <\/span>your<\/span><\/i> way.<\/span><\/p>\n
