a note from Lily & James
We feel incredibly blessed to have found each other and to be stepping confidently into this next chapter. Our ceremony marks the start of a lifelong commitment rooted in love, intention, and the promise we’re choosing to make to one another. Getting married in Mexico City feels like the perfect reflection of who we are as two people who love to travel, immerse ourselves in new cultures, and create memories that stay with us forever. Because this moment is so meaningful, we want to share it with the people who have been part of our story. In true James and Lily style, we’ll be celebrating with authentic food, amazing cocktails, and dancing until the venue closes down!
