Solay & Daria’s James Bond Meets Burning Man Wedding in Tulum
The Couple & The Vision
Solay, a Jewish-Persian groom, and Daria, a Russian bride, first met in Tulum and knew instantly that this magical destination was where they wanted to celebrate their love. When they reached out to us, their brief was clear and intentional:
A luxurious beachfront wedding in Tulum.
A James Bond meets Burning Man theme.
A celebration that began with romance and tradition and transitioned into a wild, unforgettable party.
A big beachfront mansion where their loved ones could stay and celebrate under one roof.
A helicopter arrival for the groom and a grand, cinematic entrance for the couple.
The Discovery Process
Through our discovery process, we worked closely with Solay & Daria to refine their vision. While they initially leaned towards a wedding venue in Soliman Bay, we guided them toward the untouched magic of Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve—one of the most pristine and prestigious beachfront locations in Mexico.
We scouted over 30+ properties online and arranged site inspections of 8-9 top villas before securing a truly extraordinary hacienda:
800 meters of private beachfront.
9 luxury suites for the couple and their closest guests.
A helicopter landing pad, rooftop sunset lounge, cocktail terrace, beachfront ceremony space, and private dock for arrivals by boat.
This was one of the most exclusive properties in Quintana Roo—an investment in luxury that perfectly aligned with their once-in-a-lifetime vision.
Designing the Experience
The wedding was designed to feel like a journey: beginning with sacred romance, unfolding into elegant luxury, and culminating in a Burning Man-inspired festival until sunrise.
Day 1: Welcome Reception at Casa Malca
Private areas at the iconic Casa Malca hotel, opened exclusively for the couple (a first for the property).
A warm evening gathering where guests arrived, mingled, and felt the energy building.
Day 2: Wellness & Cultural Experiences
Men and women enjoyed a wellness day with dedicated rituals and relaxation.
A private Turkish-style dinner in honor of the couple’s first date.
Day 3: The Wedding Day
From start to finish, the day unfolded as a masterclass in balance between love, tradition, and pure celebration.
The Ceremony
Guests welcomed with cocktails before being led into the ceremonial space by a shamanic shell call.
The couple’s journey honored with a Seven Directions Mayan blessing.
Mayan dancers, live guitar, violin, and bridesmaids/groomsmen entrances.
The groom performed a song he had written for his bride, debuting it in front of family and friends.
The bride made her grand entrance accompanied by violin, followed by traditional Jewish rituals including breaking the glass.
Cocktail Hour & Grand Entrance
Guests enjoyed live entertainment, a 360° video booth, and cocktails.
The couple returned for their grand entrance with fireworks and live drummers.
Guests waved napkins in celebration as the energy soared.
Dinner & Speeches
Elegant plated dinner service (transitioned from the couple’s original buffet idea to elevate the experience).
Toasts and speeches from loved ones, followed by the couple’s first dance, sung live by the emcee.
The Party – Burning Man Comes to Tulum
Live band performances, fire dancers, neon shows, and performance artists.
A full DJ lineup from cocktail hour to sunrise, with talent flown in from LA and Ibiza.
Bespoke AV production with projection mapping on the hacienda.
Midnight snacks, open bar, cake cutting, bouquet toss, and endless dancing.
Hourly pre-arranged shuttles for guests who needed to leave.
As dawn broke, the closest family and friends remained—dancing until sunrise.
Challenges & Triumphs
The week of the wedding brought heavy rain—threatening to derail the outdoor beachfront plan. Saleh, deeply faithful, made the call: “We stick with Plan A. God will protect us.” Against all odds, the skies cleared on the wedding day. Not a drop of rain fell, leaving the couple and guests with a truly divine experience.
The Result
Guests described Saleh & Daria’s wedding as:
“The best wedding of my life.”
“The new gold standard for weddings.”
Every detail—from the romantic ceremony to the wild sunrise afterparty—was meticulously executed. The couple’s dream of James Bond sophistication meets Burning Man freedom came to life in one of the most magical weddings Tulum has ever seen.
✨ Aftermovie: We captured the entire experience in a cinematic aftermovie, showcasing the elegance, energy, and emotion of the celebration.

Case Study: Young Bulls Mastermind — Ecom Leaders Unite in Tulum
The Vision
The Young Bulls wanted more than just a vacation—they envisioned an energizing mastermind experience that would deepen connections, sharpen business insights, and leave their group creatively inspired. They needed it to feel exclusive, seamless and content-rich.
The Challenge
With limited notice and two independent groups flying in, the original setup was two villas. However, just days before arrival, one of the clients increased the budget to elevate the experience prompting a full restructure of the accommodation and itinerary with almost no lead time.
Our Solution
We pulled off a luxury, high-performance retreat by delivering:
Luxury Villas:
Group A: Villa La Calera in La Veleta
Group B: Casa Nati
Later addition: A third luxury villa was added due to schedule shifts ultimately giving the group more variety for content creation and lifestyle experience.
Private Chef & Mastermind Hub:
Centralized chef-catered breakfasts and lunches where both groups would come together
Dedicated time for business masterminds and collaborative brainstorming in beautiful shared spaces
Curated Evenings & Activities:
Premium dinner reservations at Tulum’s most celebrated restaurants
All logistics (transportation, scheduling, on-call requests) handled end-to-end
Wellness & Lifestyle Experiences:
Muay Thai training sessions for high-energy mornings
Jungle gym workouts to blend fitness with Tulum’s natural landscape
Sunset experience for deep reflection and content capture
Spa and massage bookings available on request
Creative Advantage Through Movement:
Due to a last-minute villa change, part of the group rotated into a new luxury space. What could have been a hassle became a feature they shot content across three stunning backdrops, giving their social and brand media a major boost.
The Outcome
The Young Bulls called it a game-changer. We elevated their first in-person retreat into an unforgettable experience seamless, luxurious, and perfectly curated for a content-savvy, high-performance group. They’re already planning their next experience with us.
Client Feedback:
“We couldn’t believe how everything came together last minute—multiple villas, chef, transportation, restaurants, Muay Thai, sunset shoots… all dialled in. This trip set a whole new standard for us.”

Photo booth lounge upstairs for guests to capture memories.
