We know there are a lot of foodies in attendance, so for those of you interested in an off property dining experience, we suggest these unique experiences that will live in your mind rent free long after our wedding.

The Office on the Beach: Once upon a time in the 70’s, when the peninsula was a remote and isolated place and a few visitors came to the region, the first palapa on the beach was built on the Médano Beach of Cabo San Lucas. On the virgin beach this palapa with its small kitchen and unpretentious bar, tended to the needs of locals and the few tourists at the time, offering simple fare such as ceviche, fried fish, burritos, or hamburgers and the always wanted margaritas, cuba libres, and beers. Then, a local character, a gringo viejo —as the writer Carlos Fuentes would say— rented wind surf equipment on the beach and entertained his clients and friends in this same palapa which was referred by him and others as “the office”. The name stuck, and shortly after, a blue sign with yellow lettering popped up identifying the place officially as an office. The Office on the Beach is a treasure and is located in downtown Cabo San Lucas, just 20 minutes from Villa la Valencia.

El Farallon: With the mountains on one side and the ocean on the other, El Farallon sits like a raw jewel at the edge of the world, refined yet wild. The Champagne Terrace welcomes you, and as the waves crash, you hear the hum of the open-air kitchen as the Chef expertly prepares the fisherman’s catch of the day. The warm night invites you in as you sit tucked amongst ancient rock, carved into the cliff. Dramatic and unforgettable, the sea-to-table menu is Cabo San Lucas’ most celebrated dining experience. Located at the Waldorf Astoria Pedregal, this luxury experience has limited availability. For reservations, call +52 (624) 163-4300.
