Bianca + Helge's Elopement in Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica

Bianca and Helge traveled from Germany with Bianca's sister and her sister's partner to elope on a secluded beach on Costa Rica's Caribbean side. It was my first time shooting a wedding on the Caribbean side, and actually my first time visiting there as well. I was of course very excited to see and experience a new place in this beautiful country. 

For the ceremony the couple had a lawyer and also a German translator. The translator was very familiar with the town and brought us to a beautiful and quiet beach. It was great that she knew the area because the main beach was very busy as a surf tournament was going on that morning. 

The ceremony took place at 10 AM, it was an overcast morning but still very beautiful. I met the couple at the villa they were staying at to take a few getting ready photos. Biance had this amazing glow about her, such a natural beauty.

Next we all headed to the beach known as Playa Chiquita. Is was very peaceful and surrounded by jungle, very similar to my hometown beach of Manuel Antonio. Driving through the town of Puerto Viejo made me feel like I was on a island. It has a very big surf and island vibe to it, I wished I had taken more time to explore the town, it seemed very cool.

The couple and their two guests all walked down the "aisle" together. It was very sweet to see how much they included the other couple in the ceremony. I could tell that it was very important that they were there witnessing and celebrating the marriage with Bianca and Helge.

These two love birds couldn't keep their hands off one another, and I don't blame them! They were so happy and in love, it reminded me of me and my husband right after we got married,
