Caroline & Ben

One of the perks of being wedding stylists in Costa Rica is that we get to travel to all these beautiful places outside of the already spectacular beach paradise that we live.  Caroline & Ben had their amazing wedding in beautiful La Fortuna, with the Volcan Arenal as the backdrop.  Their room was tucked up away from the road, nestled among lush, jungle foliage. It could not have been a more beautiful, tranquil setting for getting ready. 

Caroline's style was vintage, old Hollywood glam, complete with  soft finger waves, winged liner, lush red lips and glamorous satin gown. 

Their wedding was featured on Junebug Weddings blog.

Connie & David

When Connie first contacted us and told us she was looking to do something retro - Hollywood glam style - we got really excited to work with her.  Nick did a great job creating her perfect pin curled, pin-up style hair with a great feathered hair clip.  Her make-up was simple -- liquid eyeliner, long sexy (false) lashes and of course bright red lipstick. Combined with her vintage style gown, she was a knock-out!

Teresa & Brian

We had quite a day getting Teresa and her bridesmaids ready for the wedding!  Soon after our arrival at Bahia del Sol -- in typical Costa Rica fashion -- out went the power.  After waiting around a bit in hopes it would come back on, we really needed to get the ball rolling in order to have everyone ready on time.  The Bahia staff did their best to accommodate us, clearing out a space for us in their small office (the only place they had a generator).  So, we lugged ourselves and all the gear into the teeny space and got the show on the road.  

Despite the cramped quarters, we had a b-l-a-s-t getting these ladies ready for the festivities!  Teresa is definitely a lucky lady to have such a fun group of gal pals as her inner circle who made the "inconvenience" into a memory.  Luckily about 3 hours in, the power fired itself back up and we moved back to the room.

Teresa had an amazing custom made vintage style gown with a gorgeous fishnet and feather birdcage veil.  We did her make-up light and shimmery with simple black winged liner, and her hair up in a side chignon which really looked great with the veil!
