Susan and David Shiffman

Just a few days after Fourth of July, Susan and David Shiffman made their way to UNICO 20°87°Hotel Riviera Maya for an intimate destination wedding of their dreams. They knew they wanted a private ceremony for the two to cherish and found that UNICO had what exactly what they were looking for. When the couple first began planning their special day, they were immediately drawn to UNICO 20°87° and the local inspiration throughout the hotel. The private ceremony took place in the gazebo by the ocean, which made for a picture perfect moment. 

See the special moments this couple had while enjoying their dream destination wedding.

What is your favorite memory from your big day?

Every minute of our big day was memorable, every single minute. We wouldn’t have changed a thing and would get married at UNICO 20°87° again if we could!

What was your favorite amenity?

We loved everything about UNICO from the moment we arrived to the moment we departed. From the welcoming we received at check-in, our host Aldo was fantastic our entire stay, checking on us daily and attending to any requests we had. The Spa was fabulous and the 20% inclusion rate made it possible for us to visit many time during our stay. The food was outstanding at all the restaurants, but Mi Carissa was our favorite. The service and grace of the staff, the Chef who came to our table, creating a menu just for our Wedding Celebration dinner was exceptional. Also, our Estancia Suite was magnificent!

Describe your big day in three sentences.

My day began at 1:00 pm when the Styling Trio entered our suite and transformed me into a beautiful bride by doing my hair and makeup. Our wedding coordinator, Brenda, was there the entire time from the styling in the suite to our Wedding Night Celebration Dinner, and graciously attended to every detail, creating a fairytale wedding for us. Our wedding was personalized and intimate and surpassed every expectation we had.

And so the adventure begins…
