Sarah and Gabe chose the beautiful hotel La Mansion to have their wedding. Family and friends flew in from all over to join in celebrating this couples marriage to one another. The ceremony took place on the hotels roof top terrace overlooking the national park. Guests enjoyed a cocktail hour immedietly after, while myself and the couple headed to the beach for photos.
Afterwards a beautiful reception was held in a tented area of the hotel.
I started the day with the bride getting ready. She was with her sister and her mom and was calm and excited for the day.

I headed next door to the groom's room to get some photos of him getting ready. Around the date of Sarah and Gabe's wedding there was a volcano near the airport that was showing signs of activity and spewing large ash clouds. Because of this the airport was having many delays and cancellations. At this point the grooms father had still not arrived. As you can imagine this added an extra layer of stress to the groom, but all ended well as his father made it just minutes before the ceremony started.
I headed back to Sarah's room to have her get dressed. Her dress was beautiful with many buttons closing up the back. One of the button's popped off, but these ladies were prepared and didn't skip a beat.
The ceremony setup was beautiful, full of tropical colors. It was the perfect setup for a Costa Rica wedding.
After the ceremony we jumped in a taxi and rushed down to the beach. Just in time to catch the setting sun.
The newlyweds joined their guests for the end of the cocktail hour while I photographed the beautiful reception setup. I love how the accent lights in the back created a wonderful ambiance in the room.
Later in the evening it started to down pour. The tent walls were quickly lower and the party continued.
