Amber & Dave's Mellow Wedding at Casa Fantastica, Costa Rica

Amber and Dave wanted everyone to have a good time at their wedding. They made everyone feel so comfortable and at ease that it was as if the wedding fun was more for their guests than it was for them. Amber and Dave were marrying each other, but in the process they were also marrying their families together, a family of young boys. It was so sweet to see how the boys interacted with one another, sometimes poking fun at each other like kids do but then immediately turning around and giving one another hugs to show that they were just kidding. 

The entire wedding day took place at Casa Fantastica, a villa that really does live up to its name. Nestled in the jungle of Manuel Antonio with stunning views of the ocean and National Park. Since everything took place in close proximity it was effortless to get an array of getting ready photos in a short amount of time.

Dave and the boys were getting ready on the very bottom of the multi-level villa. The kids were very excited about having their own special matching shirts and about being apart of the ceremony.

The ceremony took place pool side, where guests were seated in comfy wicker furniture. Amber was walked in by her mom. After the ceremony guests were invited to an informal cocktail hour. That was the great thing about this wedding, it was really just a bunch of good friends hanging out and having fun. No stuffy formalities, just a good time.

A dinner reception was held back at the house. One of Dave's sons gave a spontaneous yet heartfelt speech that was beyond his years, welcoming Amber into their family.
