Xcaret Wedding by Dhanroc Events

We're proud to share that Dhanroc Events has been awarded the South Asian Wedding Certification, granted by the South Asian Wedding Institute to professionals who demonstrate excellence and specialized knowledge in planning weddings rooted in the cultures and traditions of the South Asian world.

For us, this certification is more than a title on a wall. It's a recognition of the depth of study, respect and care that South Asian weddings demand — and a formal commitment to the growing number of couples who choose Mexico as the backdrop for one of the most meaningful chapters of their lives.

The certification covers the religion, culture, rituals, attire and gastronomy that shape South Asian celebrations — from Hindu and Sikh ceremonies to the rhythm of a multi-day wedding that may unfold across Mehndi, Sangeet, Haldi, Baraat, Pheras and Reception, each with its own meaning and choreography. After years of having the privilege of designing these celebrations across the Riviera Maya, formalizing this expertise felt like the natural next step.

"South Asian weddings are some of the most beautiful and layered celebrations a planner can design. After years of organizing them for our couples here in the Riviera Maya, earning this certification was the natural next step — a way to formalize what we already practice every day: to study, to listen, to honor every ritual, and to never assume. Behind every ceremony there's a family, a story, and generations of tradition. Our role is to make space for all of it, with the same precision and care we bring to every detail of the day."

— Dante Santiago, Founder & Lead Wedding Planner, Dhanroc Events

This recognition strengthens our position as a trusted partner for international couples looking to celebrate their union in Mexico — particularly in destinations that have become increasingly meaningful for South Asian families: Tulum, Playa del Carmen, the Riviera Maya, Cancún and Mexico City.

If you're planning a Hindu, Sikh or South Asian wedding in Mexico and you're looking for a planner who understands the cultural depth behind every detail, we'd love to hear your story.
