White Wedding Dress at Hacienda Sac Chich: Cailey & Andrew’s Jewish Wedding

There are weddings, and then there are experiences. Cailey & Andrew’s wedding at Hacienda Sac Chich was not just a union — it was a declaration of love, tradition, and timeless beauty, centered around a white wedding dress that would come to symbolize far more than fashion. In the heart of the Yucatán jungle, this celebration unfolded like a beautifully choreographed story, where every detail — from cultural traditions to candlelit arches — reflected the essence of who they are as a couple.

When Cailey stepped into her white wedding dress, its clean silhouette, long veil, and understated tropical bouquet set a serene tone that carried through the gardens—where deep greens, stone arches, and pastel skies framed a meaningful Jewish wedding.

 

 

First Look of the White wedding dress in the Gardens

The day began with an intimate First Look between Cailey and Andrew. Bathed in soft morning light, surrounded by tall trees and ancient stonework, they saw each other for the first time on their wedding day. Cailey’s white dress glowed against the green of the garden. Her bridesmaids, adorned in warm, expressive tones of yellow, orange, and lilac, encircled her in a vibrant contrast that celebrated joy and color, while her own style remained quietly elegant. A short portrait session followed, a gentle prelude to the ceremony.

 

 

Jewish Ceremony: Ketubah, Chuppah & Glass

The Jewish ceremony unfolded as a blend of sacred tradition and serene nature. Music filled the garden while guests found their seats; the chuppah waited on the lawn, light and white.The structure felt almost like an extension of the landscape: minimal, respectful, and deeply symbolic.

As guests wearing kippot looked on, Cailey walked down the aisle with her father to join Andrew beneath the chuppah. The emotional weight of that moment was enhanced by the simple grace of her white wedding dress — a dress that moved with the wind and the emotion of the day.

The signing of the Ketubah, the Jewish marriage contract, took place surrounded by loved ones. The Ketubah itself, a beautifully crafted work of art, sat as a centerpiece of meaning and commitment. Then came the breaking of the glass — a traditional symbol of joy and fragility — met with cheers and warm applause. It was the start of something unforgettable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cocktail & Mariachi Hour

As the ceremony transitioned into celebration, the garden transformed into a festive oasis. Guests enjoyed cocktails surrounded by towering trees and soft twilight hues. The sky, painted in pastel oranges and blues, served as a natural decoration, with linear clouds that looked like they had been placed there intentionally. The stone arch of Hacienda Sac Chich, adorned with flowing white curtains and discreet floral accents, awaited the couple’s grand entrance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Grand Entrance, Firelight & First Dance

Cailey & Andrew walked through the arch, along a candlelit path. The lights suddenly came alive — tiny bursts of light mimicking fireworks traced their steps, illuminating Cailey’s white wedding dress like a moving flame of purity. 

Their first dance under the open sky was tender and graceful. The veil floated in rhythm, the fabric catching the flicker of the lights as they turned in slow circles. 

Dinner followed — a feast of connection and gratitude. The toasts rang out as family and friends gave speeches, each one more heartfelt than the last. The white wedding dress, once a quiet symbol, had now become part of every moment: the laughter, the tears, the gentle clinks of glasses raised in love.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cutting the Cake & Late-Night Dancing

After the meal, the party truly ignited. Cailey and Andrew cut their wedding cake surrounded by laughter and cheers. The team rolled in churro carts and late-night snacks as guests filled the lawn with dancing. Under the moonlight, surrounded by trees and loved ones, the white wedding dress remained radiant —a symbol of commitment, culture, and joy at Hacienda Sac Chich.

What made this wedding unforgettable wasn’t just the traditions or the beauty of the setting — it was how everything reflected Cailey & Andrew’s identity. The couple honored their Jewish heritage and wove it into the entire celebration. Every ritual, from the Ketubah to the chuppah, was presented with intention and love.
