All marriages, including same-sex marriage, is legal in Mexico if the ceremony is performed as a civil union. You can either go the whole 9 yards and have all the documents legally drawn up, or you can have a local licensed marriage officiant perform the services at your wedding, and save the official business for your return home! Sayulita offers you whatever options that make you most comfortable and able to enjoy your Sayulita wedding!

According to a 2012 SFgate.com article, "If you work with a wedding planner or a resort in Mexico, they can assist you with the details. Should you choose to get legally married in Mexico without the assistance of a planner, you'll need passports, birth certificates, divorce certificates (if relevant), local blood tests and chest x-rays (in some states), three days to three months of prep time, four witnesses who are not your parents, a Mexican justice of the peace, a translator, about $650 and a mulish ability to stand in line and slog through red tape." The author of this article's information is confirmed in various travel websites as well as the Mexican government's official page on marriage requirements.
