7/20/2016

Keagan and David traveled with a small group of family and friends to marry one another on the beautiful Manuel Antonio Beach. They stayed in the beachfront villas at EOC which created the perfect environment for their intimate gathering. 

Keagan was excited and yet calm while getting ready. She looked stunning in her lace dress. There was a chance of rain that day, but luckily the weather held out and the ceremony was held outside as planned.

The ceremony was set in a grassy area just before you reach the sand of the beach. You could hear the waves crashing in the background, but the ceremony had a much more private feel to it since it was away from the beach goers.

After the ceremony we headed to the beach for photos. One of the nice things about getting married on a muggy or slightly rainy day is that the beach is almost entirely empty.

After the photos cake and speeches took place in the event space at EOC. Since it was a small group I only stayed for that much while the celebration continued at a nearby restaurant.

Emily and Parker are just as sweet as can be. They are both super down to earth people who enjoy a good laugh. It was such a pleasure getting to know both of them, as well as their friends and family. I was invited to photograph the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding, which allowed me to hear all sorts of stories about the couple and their relationship. 

The wedding was held at Capitan Suizo, a beautiful hotel with jungle paths leading to Playa Tamarindo. I started the day with Emily getting ready with her girl friends.

Throughout the day I was skipping back and fourth between the girls and the guys. The closeness of the venue allowed me to do that. Parker was getting ready with his Dad and his friends.

The ceremony was set beachfront with vibrant petals covering the aisle. Flower cones adorned each chair for the guests to shower the newlyweds on their way out from the ceremony.

Emily and Parker looked great on the beach. And they were down for anything, getting the dress a little wet, climbing out on slippery rocks, and whatever else I threw their way.

Jessica and Drew married one another on the sandy shores of Manuel Antonio in Costa Rica. Jessica brought in a beautiful jeweled dress that was the talk of the town that day and the days leading up to the wedding. Friends and family gathered to make create an intimate and safe setting for this sweet couple. 

Jessica was getting ready at Los Altos, with her mom, sister and maid of honor. She had a dressed up pair of comfy shoes, complete with ribbon laces.

The ceremony was held at the beach in the shade of the jungle. A beautiful arch stood as the center of the space, covered in pink flowers and dripping with small mirror details. Large glittered balloons marked the path to the ceremony area.

Imee + Alex's Grand Fiesta at Westin, Playa Conchal

7/6/2016

Imee and Alex brought their high energy family and friends to have the party of a lifetime in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. They all enjoyed a vacation at the Westin, situated on Playa Conchal, with the highlight being the couples wedding day. This fun loving, California based couple were such a pleasure to work with. They were both easy going and eager to crack a smile or just burst out in laughter. 

I started with Alex getting ready with his groomsmen.

The guys were a little put off when they were served, and I quote, "girly pink champagne" but afterwards they all shyly admitted that they really liked the taste of it. I think they made up for it later in the night with the "manly" shots they all took.

Sweet Imee was getting ready with her bridesmaids and her mom. She was gitty and eager to go with the flow.

The ceremony was held on a lawn area just on the edge of the shoreline. Beautiful flowers dripped from the corner of the arch. During the ceremony Imee and Alex honored some Filipino traditions.

This entire group knew how to dance, and knew how to dance well. But I must say that this little guy below really stole the show. He would dance and the crowd would instantly circle around him to cheer him on, he even made a few bucks for his awesome performances.
