Lindsey believes destination weddings are fun for everyone because
guests get to make a vacation out of it, while the bride and groom
are able to spend extra time with their friends and family.
Why
Cabo? The couple chose Cabo because they had great
memories from the numerous vacations they had spent there. Also,
Cabo was only a short flight away for almost everyone attending,
since most of their guests were from Texas and California. “There’s
also something out of the ordinary getting married at sunset, overlooking
the ocean.”
Accommodations:
All the guests were staying at Marquis Hotel. This made festivities
and organization much easier.
The
concept: Lindsey was clear, “Everything must
be white!” The ceremony flowers, reception centerpieces and
ballroom décor were all the work of Elena Damy, contemporary
florist designer.
The
vendors: The couple chose local vendors recommended
by Sarai. However, their photographer, Glen Johnson, flew in from
US to capture the event.
The
ceremony:
Lindsey & Fisher exchanged vows at sunset on the hotel’s most
beautiful terrace, under an arch of suspended roses.
The
rehearsal dinner: Closest friends and family enjoyed
a magnificent night at Edith’s Restaurant. Food and décor
were Mexican, and margaritas flowed freely the whole night.
The challenge: Lindsey and her mother found that
relying on e-mail was the biggest challenge, since it made it envisioning
the final results difficult. They were only able to travel to Cabo
once prior to the wedding to review details and do the tasting.
