Photographer’s Thoughts On This Puerto Viejo Elopement
Through our Caribbean Sunrise styled shoot, we wanted to showcase the experience of traveling and getting eloped in Puerto Viejo—a slice of real paradise and ironically one of the most underrated towns for weddings. Our planning team wanted to preserve the essence of the Caribbean beach town. We had a natural palm leaf aisle, a non-traditional tropical color palette, and lots of tropical greens.
