San Juan Wedding - Marcela + Christian

The much anticipated wedding of Marcela and Christian has finally come!  When we booked this wedding back in August 2011 the countdown was on for our San Juan, Puerto Rico wedding.   We were beyond excited to explore a new area and shoot in some amazing locations.  On Saturday May 26, 2012 Marcela and Christian were wed at the San Juan Cathedral in Old San Juan.  This is the second oldest church in the Western Hemisphere.  The cathedral is rich in history and beauty.  After the Catholic mass, guests walked across the street to Hotel El Convento to enjoy a cocktail hour and reception to celebrate with our bride and groom.  Hotel El Convento is a beautiful hotel in Old San Juan and a must if you visit the area.  The night was full of joy and celebration and we had the best time ever.  We were happy to be working with some amazing vendors too, so it really was a great experience for us.   We would like to thank Marcela and Christian for letting us be part of their wonderful Old San Juan wedding.  We wish you guys all the best and congratulations on the start of your new life together as man and wife.

Key Vendors:
Wedding Planner - AMK Events - Anne Marie Kleis 
Floral - Festivo

PS  Must see's when in San Juan.  (Yes, we stayed a few extra days to mix some exploration in with shooting).  
El Morro Fort and Castillo de San Cristóbal.  Two amazing forts that are full of history. 
El Yunque National Rainforest, the only tropical rainforsest on US land. 
San Juan Cathedral - the second oldest church in the western hemisphere.   The explorer Ponce de León's remains are in the cathedral.  He is known for searching for the fountain of youth in Florida.  

Here are a few quick pictures of our San Juan wedding.  Movie trailer to follow!
