Double Weddings are Double the Fun!! Gaia Hotel, Manuel Antonio

When I was first contact by Cat about photographing a double wedding I was of course thrilled! It was something I had never done before, and I may never have another chance to do as double destination weddings are not very common. Cat and her best friend Alisha planned to marry their better halves together on the sandy shores of Manuel Antonio. One of the things that I loved about this group of friends is that it wasn't just the ladies that were great friends but the guys as well. 

I started the day with the two grooms getting ready. They were at the luxurious Hotel Gaia in one of the villas. Hand written letters were delivered to them from their brides to be.

The brides were getting their hair and makeup done at the hotel spa. They were so excited to be experience the joy of marrying the loves of their lives together.

Cat and Alisha made their separate entrances to the ceremony. A rain cloud was making its way to where we were, but held out for the entire ceremony.

After the ceremony we headed to the shore line for photos, trying to beat the incoming rain. The storm eventually caught up with us but that didn't damper anyone's spirit. Both couples had no problem getting drizzled on, and some beautiful rain night shots were also captured.

Once the rains started to get a little heavier we all headed back to Hotel Gaia. Sandy, the wedding coordinator, had a beautiful private dinner setup for the newlyweds on their private terrace. Each couple took a turn cutting the cake as well.
