Laura and Johnny are two world travelers who decided to have their wedding in beautiful Sayulita. The getting ready was at Villa Amor, and their Sayulita wedding ceremony and reception was at Don Pedros palapa overlooking the Playa Los Muertos in Sayulita, Mexico. After the ceremony, mariachis escorted them to Playa Los Muertos where they had a champagne toast. Catering was of course by Don Pedro’s, who once again was flawless.
One of their guests made (in Mexico, no less) home made marshmallows. So there were s’mores galore and also a the churro guy was there and who can resist that?
Yazmin from Sea of Dreams Wedding once again did a great job!

Maggie and John’s wedding was a fun filled event at Villa Amor. They had a ton of their friends come over from Corvallis and Idaho, and had a great band to end the reception, along with fireworks. I was also able to photograph their rehearsal dinner the night before, and the guests had a great time smashing the wedding pinata!

I have been looking forward to a Playa Fiesta wedding in Puerto Vallarta for a long time. This was one of the best times I had at a wedding - great people and great location! Playa Fiesta Beach Club and Hotel at Puerto Vallarta is one of the top places for a wedding at Puerto Vallarta, and I can see why. The owners, Lindsay and Adam do a great job of getting things done without being overbearing, and things ran very smoothly. The setting is right at the beach! I love Puerto Vallarta weddings at the beach!
Melissa and Bryan’s wedding had a lot of neat touches! Their “engagement photo” for their signature matte was a caricature drawn by a local artist. Mariachi’s escorted them with their music before the ceremony. The goodie bags they prepared for their guests had everything including a shot glass and a salt shaker! They even have a customized logo, very cool. They asked their guests to make a wish for them and throw the sea shells that were placed on their seats back to the sea.
Here are some of my favorites:

As soon as I met Niran and Gary, I knew we would have a great time and that we would have some amazing photos! I met them for the first time at Calypso Restaurant for the rehearsal dinner. At the rehearsal dinner, there was an AMAZING animated video done by one of their friend’s that detailed their relationship. It was funn, and romantic, and brought a ton of tears and laughter. Kudos! I love to get a copy of that!
Niran loved animals, and she used pictures of her dog to highlight some of the pars of their wedding celebration. The place cards were highlighted by her dog’s pictures. Some of the other cool ideas they had were: hanging pictures detailing their romance on a clothesline, like a timeline, a polaroid guest book, beautiful shells hanging from the tree they got married in front of. There was a great band, and later some of the couple’s musicians friends took over and sang for them as well. How fun! There was even pastor tacos for the guests! Catering was by Don Pedro’s. Everything was expertly organized and ran by Sayulita Dream Weddings‘ Andrea.
Casa Las Palmas II is an amazing location at Punta Mita. It reminds me a little bit of Rancho Huracan that I shot earlier. The bathroom that Niran was getting ready is probably bigger than my entire studio, and had some amazing architecture and light. You can see some pictures I did using that focused light in the photos.
Overall, this was a great time!

Jill and Brenden were childhood sweethearts that decided to get married overlooking the great Pacific Ocean in Sayulita Mexico. Their ceremony was held on Don Pedro’s Palapa on a hill overlooking both Sayulita and Playa de los Muertos. Their Mexican wedding included a mariachi band and a cigar roller making handmade cigars during the reception that everyone enjoyed.

Amber and Matt tied the knot at Villa de Roja, directly off the beach! The reception was at the beautifully decorated amazing Mar Plata Restaurant. In my opinion, Mar Plata is one of the best restaurants I have been to, so if you are in the Sayulita, Punta Mita, Bucerias, Puerto Vallarta or Nuevo Vallarta area, make sure to visit them. It is worth a trip!
Here is the coolest thing: the wedding party was accompanied by a super friendly dog the whole week, and he invited himself to the wedding and the reception too. In fact, the doggie was so loved, Amber and Matt adopted him and he is arriving in US soon!
