The
planning:
Prior
to the wedding, Sarah & Ian came to Cabo only once. During that
trip, they met with the priest, photographers and DJ and confirmed
the location.
Accommodations:
The
couple chose the “buy out” option at the Cabo Surf Boutique
Hotel, which enabled guests to obtain special rates and, above all,
to enjoy the beauty of the location in utmost privacy.
Bride, groom and friends hung out by the pool most of the time, relaxing
and soaking up the stunning view.
The concept: Sarah wanted a very fun and casual, yet
elegant and attractive ambiance. Her colors were bright orange and
vivid pink. Sarai suggested using candle light and hanging lamps in
the reception area to create a very cozy, stylish atmosphere.
The
vendors:
Sarah & Ian used mainly local vendors. The ceremony was performed
by local priest Father Humberto. She walked down the aisle to the
Ensamble Acústico classical trio, while the rest of
the reception was in DJ Adan Mijares’s hands. Sarah and Ian
spent weeks selecting the song list, as the party time
was really important to them.
The
ceremony:
Sarah and Ian exchanged their vows in the charming Mission San Jose
del Cabo. All the paperwork was completed in their own church back
home prior to the wedding. Father Humberto celebrated the ceremony
entirely in English.
The
rehearsal dinner:
An Italian night was held at La Dolce Restaurant, which is within
walking distance from the church. Colorful gerbera-daisies and décor
were the perfect combination for a very warm and special soirée.
The
challenge: The most difficult part was the distance,
meaning we had to accomplish nearly everything over the phone and
email, only having the time to come to Cabo for one trip dedicated
to planning prior to the wedding.
The
reward: The most pleasant side- by far- was working
with Sarai. I knew, as soon as I met her in person, that we were
in the best, most capable hands to have the wedding we dreamed of.
It sounds terribly cliched, but our wedding was everything we had
hoped it would be. It was all thanks to Sarai! In addition to her
wonderful, kind, easygoing personality, she has fabulous taste in
all things so we completely trusted her judgment.
