We decided to get married in Colombia because we wanted a destination that would be fun for our guests to visit. Cartagena felt like the perfect vacation spot! not only for our family and friends in Colombia but also for those traveling from Arizona and New York.

Originally, we planned to host a welcome cocktail to greet our guests before the big day, but we ended up adding another event in the islands,because how could we not?! In the end, we had three pre-wedding events, making the celebration even more special.

In this blog, I’ll share all the details about those events, along with other memorable moments leading up to our wedding, including my bridal shower, our civil wedding in NYC, the proposal, our engagement celebration, and our engagement shoot!

I made sure to celebrate every second of the pre-wedding festivities because it’s truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. And of course, I love dressing up, hosting, and making every moment special!
