About Guadalajara
Guadalajara is the second biggest city in Mexico with 5.2 million persons. The city exudes a distinctly European atmosphere, with wide tree-lined boulevards, leafy plazas, Spanish-influenced architecture, and sidewalks humming with activity. Guadalajara is famous for its tequila but is also known as a center of mariachi music and a stronghold of Charreadas (the Mexican version of the rodeo). It is also known as the “Silicon Valley of Mexico” because of all the tech companies that invest in the region. Because of its location, you can easily get to the beach on a 4hr drive or 1hr flight, to Mexico City or Monterrey on a 1hr flight, and to Tequila (yes, it is a town) on a 45min drive.
If you are coming from abroad and are wondering what are the best places to go to before or after the wedding, what are the best restaurants, bars, and clubs, or simply want to get ideas for your next trip, don’t forget to check out the Bimble page we’ve set up for you. It includes some of our recommendations on things to visit in Guadalajara as well as some cool spots, natural reserves, and cities around Mexico.
About the Wedding
With our wedding, we are trying to depict what a typical Sunday inside a small Mexican town looks like. All the details, from the venue to the food and to the music, have been thought around that theme. At our wedding, you will be able to eat typical Mexican food, snack, and deserts, drink real Mexican cocktails, sing to traditional Mariachi, and of course dance like a true Mexican. We hope you enjoy it!
Due to the fact that we are not able to take a lot of stuff back to Berlin, there will NOT be a wedding list. If you would like to support us with our honeymoon trip, please feel free to donate to the GoFundMe pool that we’ve set up for you. We thank you in advance!
