Are there any policies or restrictions for bringing an outside wedding photographer to my Mayan Riviera resort?
Each resort in Mexico has different rules regarding wedding photographers. Most resorts in the Mayan Riviera, Cancun area have implemented a special rate that they charge to allow photographers on their properties. This fee can range from $100 to $500 USD. It is commonly referred to as a ‘Day Rate’ or ‘External Service Provider Fee’. Resorts with these strict policies have been known to allow us if we are booked as guests into their hotel for the night. Please confirm this with your wedding coordinator, as you will be responsible for ensuring we have proper permission to be on the premises to shoot your wedding.
