It was another beautiful wedding at Acuatico Beach Resort last December 17, 2013. Thank you Acuatico Beach Resort for referring us to Ryan and Rosalie! Your trust and confidence in us and in our work means a lot to us. 

Rosalie’s dream wedding was to get married by the beach in front of her family and friends (even if there was a possible down pour of rain that day). Aside from this, Rosalie has some non-negotiable requirements such as:

• Seashell bouquet
• S shaped aisle with rose petals and aisle lanterns
• To walk by the beach in high heels
• Follow spot when she walks down the aisle

And would you believe her dream came true (aside from marrying the man of her dreams). Yes. The aisle was not the usual straight aisle and it was lighted by lanterns. She walked down the aisle in her high heels with the spot light on her. Her bouquet was a heavy one but it didn’t matter. She’s happy. 
  

When asked what was Ryan’s dream wedding? Simply said – “To marry Rosalie and make her happy”. Isn’t that the sweetest? 

Planning their wedding wasn’t easy considering the circumstances surrounding their religious backgrounds. But we were able to work things out. Nobody thought that it was possible but we made it happen.

There were twists and turns in planning their wedding but we were thankful that Ryan and Rosalie listened to our suggestions to come home earlier than they planned. It sure answered a lot of concerns – wedding dress and wedding papers to name a few.

“I wish my brother, our bulldog, Bubba, and more of Ryan’s family could have been at our wedding. We splurged on the venue, wedding dresses, caterer, photo/video, hair and make up artist (but everyone was worth it). We saved on the fire lanterns. 

Married life is amazing! The first morning we woke up as husband and wife was a wonderful feeling and I will keep that everyday and forever.

Best tip for soon to wed couples –

Also, you cannot please everyone whatever you do they always have something bad to say, but always think it’s your wedding, your special day not theirs. Make it happen. Be happy and enjoy your day!”
