Heather and Mike Tie the Knot at Mariposa Hotel, Manuel Antonio

Heather and Mike married one another at the beautiful Mariposa Hotel in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. They opted not to go down to the beach for photos, so most of the portraits were taken around the hotel grounds, with a few sunset photos from the terrace after the ceremony. Luckily Mariposa Hotel has many beautiful spots for photos. The couple traveled from San Diego with friends and family to enjoy a vacation together, and of course to also celebrate their marriage. 

I started the afternoon with Heather and her friends getting ready. Her twin sister (who also has stunning blue eyes) was also there by her side, like she has been her entire life. The girls were getting ready in the suite which has beautiful views of the Manuel Antonio National Park.

Heather made a very special addition to her wedding dress. She had pieces of her dad's shirt and her moms wedding dress sewn into the bottom layer, I could tell it meant a lot to her.

Just before Heather and Mike did a first look with one another I was able to photograph Mike doing the finishing touches to his attire.

After the ceremony the fun began with cocktail hour. Heather and Mike joined in for the beginning to be congratulated by their guests and enjoy the company of their friends and family. Once the sun began to set we finished with family photos and sunset photos of the newlyweds.
