Who say's weddings have to be the same old white dress and boring Tux shoes

Why not try something new?  My dream dress was black but that might have taken it a few steps to far.  Being creative means thinking outside the box.  You can wear a traditional dress but change up the color.  Pick your favorite color and run with it!  Here are a few very dreamy dresses that I love.  It's your day!  Live it up and wear the dress of your dreams. Who say's you can't have it your way!

Here are a few great tips when considering your wedding dress:

  1. You know you body better than anyone else. your body. Pick out a dress that helps highlight your amazing shape. Most ladies lose a few pounds or tone up before the big day. Make sure you pick out a dress shape that is realistic for your body shape.. 
  2. Have a clear idea of the tone you want to set. Do you want a formal wedding, a casual wedding, a semi formal wedding. Your dress will set the tone for your wedding.
  3. Stay true to your creative style and research what you want. There are so many wedding designers out there to pick from. You should have no issues finding a dress that is perfect for you and your big day.  Most of all make sure you LOVE it. Remember your will have pictures of yourself in that dress to last a lifetime.

It all starts with...

So you wanna get married in Puerto Rico, who doesn't!
You have sandy beaches, sunny weather, beautiful Puerto Rico water and best of all an island wedding planner willing to meet your every need. All you need is a little imagination.



It all starts with a theme....Mine had to be Spanish! With a dash of lace, lot's of color, paper flowers, fans, and anything that would sparkled in my photographs. Sometimes the simplist of items can help you create a theme for your perfect day! Choose something simple and build around that idea. You never know where it will take you.

Love Your Imagination!

My Story.....


   I'm Christina (the Bride) and I got married on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico! It was not only amazing, magical and romantic but more dreamy that I could have ever hoped for.  I chose Puerto Rico for my wedding, not because I live there, not because I grew up there and not because I'm Puerto Rican, none of those things apply to me.  I got married in Puerto because for me there was other place in the world I could dream of having my wedding.  Just like so many tourist, I took a mini vacation to Puerto Rico before my cruises ship was due to leave.  I planned on touring Puerto Rico, three extra days before my cruise left port.  By the time I got on the ship to start my cruise, I was dreaming of when the ship would land back in PR.  I loved it so much that while on the ship I was calling the El San Juan Hotel & Casino to book two extra days so I could fall more in love with PR.  It was on that very cruise ship I met and fell in love, with my husband. You see for me there was no other choice and it could have never happened without Lisa Rodriguez.


Now as the weeks go by, I am going to show you how I pulled my wedding together all the way from Virginia with Lisa's guidance and friendship we created my dream wedding.  Destination weddings are not easy!  You need help and if you believe, no matter the budget, anything and I mean ANYTHING is possible.
