The Brief
A 50-guest Hindu Vedic destination wedding over four nights at Moon Palace Cancun in fall 2026. The couple wanted a traditional Hindu ceremony — Saat Phere, Mandap setup, full Vedic rituals — but at intimate scale, with their nearest 50 guests rather than a 200-guest production.
For Hindu weddings at this size, the resort needs to handle three things confidently: pundit coordination, vegetarian/Jain catering, and a Mandap setup that doesn't feel like a default beach gazebo.
Why Moon Palace Cancun
Moon Palace's wedding program has executed enough Hindu weddings that the moving pieces are familiar to the on-site team. For a 50-guest celebration:
- Mandap setup at multiple ceremony venue options — the on-site decor team understands the structural requirements
- Vegetarian dining — Palace's specialty restaurant lineup includes vegetarian-rich menus, which simplifies family meal planning
- Pundit accommodation — the resort's group room block can hold an extra room for the officiant's stay
- Outdoor ceremony venues — beach gazebos and oceanfront gardens offer the visual scale a Hindu ceremony deserves even at small guest counts
The Four-Day Schedule
- Day 1 — Arrival: Welcome cocktail at the resort
- Day 2 — Evening: Sangeet at one of the resort's event spaces — music, dance, dinner
- Day 3 — Morning: Haldi for immediate family. Saat Phere ceremony at the Mandap in the late afternoon
- Day 3 — Evening: Reception with full bar, plated dinner, DJ
- Day 4 — Departure: Farewell brunch
