Casa Milagros, Sayulita | Dani & Ry

My last wedding of the season just so happened to be a destination wedding, in beautiful Sayulita. A town very near and dear to Dani & Ry’s heart. When Dani asked me to photograph their wedding, I jumped on it. Seeing as I’ve been there 7 times, Mexico too is somewhere special to me.

What I loved is Dani’s vision for the day. She knew exactly what she wanted, and it was executed perfectly, of course with the help of Liz from Brilliant Events. The wedding took place at Casa Milagros, a beautiful house on the north end of the beach. We ripped into town ahead of the festivities very briefly to get some group shots at two distinct locations. Then back to the AC until the ceremony began. The details were beautiful. Tropical florals and eucalyptus for the bouquets, as well as the giant floral ring for the ceremony. Dinner tables set up on the beach under market lights, with coconuts and pineapples as their center pieces. A beautiful wooden dance floor for when the party got started. Dinner was a taco buffet, with fresh Churros for dessert. Freshly made margaritas, wine and buckets of beer. The DJ was amazing! I didn’t get his name sadly, but I loved that he had a percussionist and a sax player alongside him, bringing a different element to the music he was playing. Mid way through the dance party, people started heading for the pool. This day was a humid one, so I think people were stoked to get in to cool down. I know I was! It truly was an awesome celebration with an amazing beach party vibe.

This wedding was so fun, so laid back. Dani had such a calmness to her. I was blown away about how little stress she had. In fact, I’d say she had none. Being a destination wedding, it was pretty amazing to see how many people made the big trip from either Australia or Whistler, down to the colourful little town of Sayulita to celebrate their love. I am counting my luck stars that I was invited to document this day for them. A donkey even surprised us for photos, and that just made my heart sing.

Congratulations you two!
