Puerto Vallarta is one of Mexico’s most romantic wedding destinations, where golden beaches, tropical mountains, Pacific sunsets, and elegant resorts create the perfect setting for a destination wedding.

At Luckie Photography, we capture weddings with a timeless, natural, and emotional approach. With experience photographing destination weddings across Mexico since 2006, we understand how to work with ocean light, tropical weather, resort timelines, and the meaningful moments that make every celebration unique.

Destination Wedding Photography in Puerto Vallarta

From beachfront ceremonies to private villas, rooftop receptions, and luxury resort weddings, Puerto Vallarta offers a beautiful mix of elegance and natural scenery. Every wedding here feels different because the Pacific Coast gives each celebration warm light, dramatic sunsets, and a relaxed Mexican atmosphere.


Our goal is to document your wedding day with images that feel authentic, romantic, and sophisticated.

Experienced in Puerto Vallarta’s Most Beautiful Wedding Venues

Puerto Vallarta and the surrounding Riviera Nayarit area are home to incredible wedding locations, including Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta, Dreams Vallarta Bay, Secrets Vallarta Bay, Hard Rock Hotel Vallarta, Hilton Vallarta Riviera, Garza Blanca Preserve, Velas Vallarta, Grand Palladium Vallarta, and private villas overlooking Banderas Bay.


Whether your wedding is intimate or a full weekend celebration, we help you make the most of your venue, timeline, light, and scenery.

Pacific Sunsets, Beach Portraits, and Real Wedding Moments

Puerto Vallarta is known for its sunsets, and they are one of the best moments of the day for wedding portraits. We recommend planning time around golden hour to create romantic images with soft light, ocean views, and natural emotion.


Beyond portraits, we focus on the real moments too: getting ready, family reactions, vows, laughter, dances, and everything that tells the full story of your wedding day.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wedding Photography in Puerto Vallarta

Do you cover Puerto Vallarta, Punta Mita, and Riviera Nayarit?

Yes. Coverage can be arranged in Puerto Vallarta, Nuevo Vallarta, Punta Mita, Sayulita, and other locations around Banderas Bay and Riviera Nayarit. Because these areas can involve substantial driving time, we base the proposal and arrival schedule on the exact venue and events rather than treating them as one compact location.

What makes Pacific sunset portraits in Puerto Vallarta distinctive?

Many west-facing locations offer direct sunset views over the Pacific, creating a different portrait experience from the Caribbean coast. We reserve a realistic window around the ceremony and reception while considering mountains, clouds, resort structures, and seasonal sunset direction. Sunset portraits should complement the celebration, not make you miss it.

How should we plan transportation for a villa or hillside wedding?

Hills, narrow roads, cobblestone streets, security access, and limited parking can affect Puerto Vallarta wedding timelines. We confirm how the team and equipment will reach the property and add appropriate travel time. When possible, keeping getting ready, portraits, and the ceremony near one another creates a calmer experience.

Do you offer photography and video for Puerto Vallarta wedding weekends?

Yes. A coordinated team can document welcome dinners, boat events, rehearsal gatherings, the wedding day, and farewell celebrations through photography and film. The coverage is customized to the schedule so each event receives appropriate attention without duplicating the same type of imagery throughout the weekend.



What happens if summer rain affects a Puerto Vallarta wedding?

Summer weather can change quickly, so we review the venue's covered spaces and coordinate with the planner before the event. Portraits, family groups, details, and candid coverage can be reordered when conditions change. The priority is to protect the ceremony and guest experience while using any available post-rain light safely.
