Graham and Ever were married in beautiful Santa Teresa Beach on the Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica. Not only is this my personal favorite area of the country, they also chose my favorite venue as well. The wedding was held at the Fabulous luxury estate of Casa Capitan. I love this estate so much it is where I celebrated my 40th birthday last year with all my nearest and dearest and where I am currently planning the wedding of my only sibling. This wedding was co planned by myself and my amazing business partner, Anahi Contreras from my Sister company Santa Teresa Beach Weddings.
Graham and Ever are both so incredibly beautiful people - both physically and internally. They both glow with kindness and sincerity as do their entire families. I remember at the end of their wedding, Anahi and I shared a moment and agreed that people like them and their guests are what make us love what we do. Having helped such good people plan and then celebrate a day they will always remember, is an honor and such a joy for us as planner and designers.
Their wedding was as well featured in the blog of the wonderful Magazine I Do Destination. For the full blog entry on I DO Destination just click HERE
I still wanted to share some of my favorite images from their wedding and showcase not only a beautiful event, but one that brings back such fond memories for both Anahi and I and simply makes me smile.
Planning the design with Graham and her mother was a blast. Graham sent me many pictures and inspirational pieces. She is a lot like me and simply loves all beautiful things (So much so, she works at SAKS and was wearing a to die for wedding gown by one of my favorite designers Marchesa!) So I took all the beautiful elements she sent and we came up with what you will see here- I like to call it Bohemian Chic, meets modern preppy. Hope you enjoy!
Graham and Ever (and each and every one of your lovely family members and guests!) We cannot thank you enough for your warm and welcoming personalities. As we always strive to allow our clients to have zero stress on their wedding day, and be able to feel like a guest. You also did the same for us. We both felt as if we were guests at your event. You are such wonderful people and we were so honored to be part of your wedding celebration.
