Mexico is a popular site for destination weddings -- and for good reason! Between the jaw dropping scenery and affordable cost, it's little wonder that couples are eager to tie the knot in this lovely country. Beautiful as it might be, you might be wondering if you can get legally married there. While many couples opt to have a symbolic ceremony, getting legally married is easy if you know the right steps to take. Same-sex marriages have become increasingly accepted in the country both legally and socially -- especially in the more metropolitan areas like Mexico City and Puerto Vallarta. However, it's important to research and discover which areas will perform same-sex marriages. Safety is not a concern for soon-to-be-wed couples or their wedding guests, particularly if they are hosting the big day at a gated resort.
