RW - Nathalie & Jake at Cancun, Mexico

Around 10 days ago, Kenneth and Elaine, International Destination Wedding Photographers, sent me this awesome wedding from Playa del Carmen in Tulum, Mexico, on the south side of Cancun. They are a married couple that photograph couples on their special day. Kinda of cool.....and their work is just sensational...

Now the couple photographed is Nathalie and Jake, which I might add are easy on the eyes had a spectacular gown trashed session. Great wedding, great location. For more on this wedding please visit the blog.

RW - Yumari & Carlos, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic

Ok, this wedding touches my heart because it comes from a special place, you see half of my family is from the Dominican Republic, from my father's side. I just Love Love Love the island. Since it is a just a 45 minute flight from San Juan I get to go around 9 to 10 times a year. For those of you that have yet to experience it, I strongly encourage you to first visit the eastern coast and experience a five star all inclusive hotel, then come back and rummage through its capital, Santo Domingo.

Now to the wedding!! I will permanently have a resource section on the blog especially for couples that want to do a Destination Wedding in this part of the Caribbean. Our first resource will be super talented photographer Roger Ramirez. This is a two part session taken place in Santo Domingo's colonial zone. The reception was held at El Museo de las Casas Reales which will immediately give a Spanish colonial feel. Enjoy the culture.....

How cool is this photo with the painted kids?

RW - Michelle and Clay, NY

First wedding of December and it took place in a great city. New York City no less. The wedding colors are stunning, gorgeous mauve again...
Beautiful couple, Michelle and Clay took some great photos in busy New York and everything was captured by the talented documentary wedding photojournalist Gulnara of Gulnara Studio. Her work is so stunning that she has been nominated for a Pulitzer and best of all if you are planning a destination wedding here in Puerto Rico she won't charge you an extra fee!! Check out more of her work in her blog.

Love the hair, love the flower, definitively LOVE the earrings...

Last Day of November!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend. I'm posting late because just came from the Dominican Republic. I was visiting my dad and had a very needed time with him, he is my best friend and I always come back with a fresh mind. I have tons of weddings to show you, my inbox is full so stay tuned that I will get started right away.......

I also had a chance to watch EDEPA FLAMENCO DANCE at a Spanish restaurant.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

RW - Rosa and Kevin

This wedding is pure elegance, classiness and just good taste. First the couple was married at All Saint's Church and then they headed to master architectural Guastavinos in New York City. All this gorgeousness was captured by extraordinaire photographer Jen Huang.

When I opened by mail box to this awesomeness I literally browse every single photo, the couple looks amazing and what I liked is how Jen captured their love, you can feel once you see the photos. Another + for Jen is that she loves destination weddings and won't charge you travel fees! So hey all you destination brides I suggest to consider her. Let the photos speak for themselves......
