#MeetMeInStLucia

#MeetMeInStLucia

A huge thanks to my dear friend, Ari, who came up with #MeetMeInStLucia. We all used it throughout the week/weekend, so be sure to check it out on Instagram. 

Since Dennis and I both have family and friends who couldn't attend our wedding, I wanted to create a post specifically to share pictures and video of our special day. It was a such a beautiful day. We had our closest family and friends with us, a buffet full of great food, and a view that was absolutely breathtaking. 

We love Saint Lucia. It became our special place after vacationing there in 2013. It's also the island where Dennis proposed, so it has even more of a special meaning. Actually, on our last night in Saint Lucia after the wedding, Dennis, myself, and our families dined at Dasheene (the restaurant where he proposed), and we were recognized by the staff upon arriving, even the owner came to our table and said "Welcome home!" For me, Saint Lucia is my tropical home; I've made a commitment to visit at least once a year, even if just for a quick weekend. It has been one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited, and we're beyond happy and fortunate to have shared it with our loved ones.

I won't bore you with anymore details. I could ramble on about it for days. I will say though, I do have visions of how I want things...how things should look...and I'm so very pleased with how everything turned out...it executed perfectly. I cannot say thank you enough to all those involved! Credits will be listed at the bottom, along with contact info in case anyone is interested in the vendors/services we used.
