We would love for any brides looking to get married in Tuscany consider this upscale hotel for their destination wedding to provide an unparalleled experience to their guests.





One and Only Palmilla Los Cabos
Madiha and Nikki both had the pleasure to plan a destination wedding weekend at the One and Only Palmilla in Los Cabo. A verdant oasis on the tip of the Baja Peninsula, where azure waters greet the mountainous desert and the Pacific Ocean merges with the Sea of Cortez. One and Only Palmilla is where warm waves break onto a dramatic shoreline and the perfect hot spot for a destination wedding. Here, the gracious style of Old Mexico - with its red-tiled roofs, whitewashed walls, and idyllic setting of exquisite fountains - is quietly nestled amidst swaying palms, bird of paradise and other tropical bloom. This location had a variety of locations on-site to host many different wedding festivities.
