Allie & Mark's Beach Wedding in Playa Hermosa, Costa Rica

Oh Allie, Allie, Allie...where do I begin! From the moment I stepped into the bedroom of the girls getting ready I could feel Allie's excitement 1000%! She is SO sweet, and the kind of person that you meet once and makes you feel like you are best friends from kindergarten. This beautiful bride was just beaming with joy the entire wedding day, from start to finish.

Allie and Mark traveled from Virginia to Playa Hermosa, a place that is very familiar to them. Allie grew up visiting her Dad in Costa Rica, and her and Mark have been visiting every year since they began dating 6 years ago. They married one another along the sandy shores of this beautiful beach that held so many memories for the two of them. Family and friends joined to support and celebrate with the newlyweds, and celebrate they did!

Allie and Mark decided to do a first look as they wanted to have the ceremony as close to sunset as possible. After the first look we took some photos around the beautiful house they were staying in.

The ceremony was held under a tent just along the shores of the beach. The couple exchanged their own vows, and Mark turned out to be quite the writer with his. The whole crowd was laughing and cheering by the end, especially when Mark stomped on the glass crying ¨Mazel Tov¨after marrying his lovely wife.

After the ceremony we continues with family photos and a few more newlywed photos. I absolutely loved the sultry chemistry between these two!

The reception was also held right along side of the beach. It was tented and curtained so that guests couldn't see the inside until it was time for the big reveal.

Just before I left for the evening the party was brought to a whole new level as the couple was hoisted up on chairs as their guests danced the Horah around them. I couldn't have imagined a better way to end this special day. I honestly do believe that this was the best day in both Allie and Mark's lives to date, they just had so much fun that their is no way anything could have topped this.
