Ashley and Jonathan Mascagni knew their wedding at the all-inclusive Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya was going to be epic, but they had no idea it’d reach the level of Rock Star Status. The couple said “I Do” this past October, and it just so happened to be the same weekend that Bret Michaels was in town to officially unveil the Bret Michaels Rock Star Suite, a completely custom luxury experience featuring a personal fitness center; private sky terrace complete with hot tub and fire pit; and one-of-a-kind Camaro SS pool table.

After meeting the couple and learning they’d be tying the knot the same night he was scheduled to perform at Heaven Lounge, the rock star invited the two to a private performance after their celebration.
