Yesterday I posted the  first half of the photos from Valerie and Ray’s awesome destination wedding in Old San Juan Puerto Rico at the historic El Convento hotel.   Even though their ceremony was moved inside because of the weather, the small, but beautiful Oller Salon provided an intimate setting for their wedding ceremony.  After which guests mingled in the courtyard before heading inside to the Salón Campeche for the dinner and reception.  Valerie and Ray were introduced and went right into their first dance, then dinner and dancing for the rest of the night.  Since it was a destination wedding, after the night was over the party took to the streets of Old San Juan and whatever bars were still open were filled with Valerie and Ray’s guests.  The next evening Valerie and Ray returned to the El Convento Hotel to take advantage of the fading evening light and make some dramatic images in Old San Juan without the rain from the night before.

I’m thrilled to announce that Destination I Do Magazine recently posted Kim and Ben’s Bahamas wedding on their blog for their featured Real Wedding Wednesday article!  If you remember, Kim and Ben had an awesome wedding, but had to deal with not only the stress of organizing a destination wedding, but once in Nassau, the added stress of the iffy weather.  Showers rained down on and off through the morning, and were forecast to continue throughout the day.  Undaunted, Kim pressed on and chose hours ahead of time to have her dream destination wedding on the beach at Compass Point Resort.  The weather held, and we have amazing images to prove it.  You can see the blog post over on Destination I Do’s Blog.

One of the best things about being a destination wedding photographer is the ability to travel internationally to document amazing and beautiful intimate weddings at incredible locations. The images here are from a destination wedding I photographed in Nassau, Bahamas at the Compass Point Resort and were featured in Destination I Do Magazine’s blog as well as being used by the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism.  Destination weddings allow couples to plan their wedding for immediate family, and friends typically on a smaller scale.

Whether your wedding is planned on an island in the Caribbean, the Baja Peninsula or anywhere in the world, I love to capture these special events and would love to discuss your plans!
