Alex and Kyle's Super Fun Wedding at Costa Verde Hotel

Alex and Kyle are one of those couples that everyone wants to be friends with. They walk into the room with big smiles and the energy is instantly lifted up ten notches. They had a large group of family and friends join them in Costa Rica and it was so clear to me why there were so many people there supporting them.

We joined them the day before on a sunset catamaran cruise for their alternative rehearsal dinner. Every single guest seemed to enjoy themselves, even some of the older people in the crew jumped from the boats rooftop deck into the water. I feel like the theme for the wedding and probably their entire trip was to have fun, and fun was indeed had!

The wedding day started with Kyle getting ready with his groomsmen. He had his beard trimmed which was the perfect way to be pampered on his wedding day.

Alex readied herself in a different room with all of her bridesmaids as well as both mothers. She wore a special ring from her grandfather that she incorporated into her hair, it was such a beautiful and unique touch. Her sister helped her into her all-over lace dress that had a ballgown silhouette to it. 

Alex and Kyle's ceremony was held on Costa Verde's helipad. The helipad is a terrace that sticks out over the jungle and has beautiful views any way you look. The skies were overcast which made for beautiful soft lighting for the photos.

The reception was held at the event center, which is a large pavilion type structure. Upon entering Kyle and Alex played the shoe game, which is always full of laughs. Other traditions took place throughout the evening and then started the PARTY!
