Soft, sandy beaches; the blue Caribbean ocean, and the lush, green rainforest mountains make Luquillo, Puerto Rico the ideal little beach town for the the perfect wedding day. Krystal and Luc were married today in paradise. And for me, being a wedding photographer in Luquillo, Puerto Rico, one of the most beautiful places I can imagine, was a dream come true. I can’t thank the bride and groom enough for trusting me to capture their amazing destination wedding.

This Puerto Rico wedding was unique in that it brought together a blend of cultures. Krystal is from Puerto Rico but lives in Indiana where she met Luc. The wedding party and guests included a lot of Krystal’s Puerto Rican family and friends as well as the couple’s family and friends from the continental U.S. One of the great things about Puerto Rico is that when you’re coming from the U.S., you don’t even need a passport, which makes traveling here so much easier for guests.

The bride and groom decided on a travel theme for their wedding, which is perfect for the couple who love to travel the world together (they got engaged in Rome)! Check out their luggage tag escort cards! We started the day with the girls getting ready at Krystal’s family’s house before the wedding at a local church. After the ceremony, the bridal party took a limo to the beach for photos before their reception at La Casona. This reception was one of the most fun I’ve ever been to! Andry and I actually knew Krystal from the dance scene back in our dancing days, so we knew there would be fun dancing. We even got to practice our salsa after we were off the clock.

Krystal and Luc, you are such an amazing couple and so perfect for each other. It was such an honor and a blessing to be able to photograph your wedding day. Enjoy these sneak peaks while I finish editing your full wedding gallery.
