A Natural Setting for Authentic Love
Getting married in Cusco is more than choosing a destination — it’s joining two paths in a place full of history, energy, and beauty.Surrounded by sacred mountains, clear rivers, and endless skies, Peru’s Sacred Valley has become one of the world’s most magical wedding destinations.
Here, every ceremony carries meaning. Whether it’s a symbolic union or a spiritual celebration, the environment itself invites presence, emotion, and connection.
Why Choose the Sacred Valley for Your Wedding
The Sacred Valley offers a perfect balance of nature, culture, and peace.
Breathtaking landscapes: mountains, flowers, and open skies create an unforgettable backdrop.
Unique energy: couples often describe a sense of calm and connection that feels timeless.
Accessibility: just over an hour from Cusco, the valley combines comfort with serenity.
Cultural authenticity: local traditions add symbolic depth to every celebration.
Types of Weddings You Can Celebrate in Cusco
1. Civil Wedding
For couples who wish to formalize their union legally while enjoying the valley’s natural beauty.
2. Symbolic Ceremony
Perfect for vow renewals or meaningful unions without legal procedures. Flexible, inclusive, and personalized.
3. Andean or Spiritual Ceremony
A deeply symbolic experience guided by a paq’o (Andean spiritual guide). Through an offering to Pachamama, the couple thanks the Earth and blesses their union.
In Andean culture, marriage is not only between two people — it’s a promise to life itself.
What Happens During an Andean Wedding
Typical elements include:
Offering to Pachamama: flowers, grains, coca leaves, and sweets.
Fire or incense: for purification and renewal.
Andean textile (lliclla): representing unity and protection.
Blessings: wishes for harmony, abundance, and lasting love.
It’s performed with deep respect, without spectacle, honoring the couple and the Earth.
