Four-star is where most Los Cabos weddings actually happen, and there’s a good reason for it. This tier holds 29 of the region’s 45 wedding resorts, including several of the most-booked properties on the coast, and the nightly rate is low enough that your guest list doesn’t shrink when people see the room prices.
The gap between four- and five-star in Los Cabos is narrower than the numbers suggest. Many four-star properties here run the same wedding venues, the same coordination teams, and the same package structures as their five-star neighbours. What differs is room finish and staff-to-guest ratio, not whether your ceremony works.
Below are the strongest four-star options for a destination wedding. Our Certified Destination Wedding Specialists can help you compare them.

More Information for Planning Your 4-Star Destination Wedding in Los Cabos
Here’s what our Certified Destination Wedding Specialists tell couples in this tier.
4-Star Destination Wedding Venues Appeal
Guest attendance is the real argument. Every dollar you save on the nightly rate is a dollar your guests don’t have to find, and at destination weddings, the room rate is what determines who can say yes. A four-star resort often means ten more people at your wedding.
The wedding product itself is frequently identical. Hard Rock has the largest beach venue in Los Cabos and chapel capability. Hyatt Ziva supports more ceremony formats than any five-star here. Secrets Puerto has four distinct venues. None of that is a compromise.
This tier is also where the all-inclusive model is strongest, which makes guest costs predictable. That matters more to attendees than thread count does.
Los Cabos Destination Wedding Cost
The average cost of a destination wedding in Los Cabos is $11,430 all-in for the couple, covering the wedding package, accommodations, airfare, and add-ons. Hotel costs run about $295 per person per night across a typical five-night stay, and airfare averages $800 per couple. Our Los Cabos couples average 29 guests.
These averages reflect real spend data from couples who booked their destination wedding with our Certified Destination Wedding Specialists.
Four-star wedding properties are what that regional average is largely built from, so if you’re planning at this tier the figure above is a realistic target rather than an optimistic one.
Los Cabos Destination Wedding Packages
Los Cabos resorts offer complimentary and deposit-only wedding packages with a qualifying room block. Entry-tier runs roughly $1,500 to $3,500 covering venue, officiant, basic decor, cake, and toast. Mid-tier lands at $4,000 to $7,000 with private receptions and upgraded florals. Full productions run $8,000 to $22,000 and beyond.
Complimentary packages with a qualifying room block are most common in this tier, so ten to fifteen rooms across four or five nights can effectively remove the package cost entirely.
Los Cabos Destination Wedding Travel Information
Los Cabos International Airport runs direct flights from a long list of US and Canadian cities, with transfers of 20 to 45 minutes along the corridor.
November through May brings the best weather. Four-star properties have more inventory than the five-star tier, so peak-season availability is easier to secure at shorter notice.
