I am such a fan of beach weddings. There’s just something about the sands, the shells and everything about the sea that makes the affair dreamlike for me. I knew from the very start the wedding theme of Christian and Jackie would point to that direction upon knowing both of them are beach bums.
The challenge? We have to bring it indoor! Of course the mighty hands of Event Stylist April Carillo of First of April did a lot of wonder and magic. You will simply fall in love with the details that gave out such a relaxed laid-back beautiful feel of a beach wedding. And bringing a boat inside the ballroom of Mandarin Hotel was such a WOW element! Seemed like the waves were calling the guests and made us all imagine the affair was held along a beautiful shore. Awesome, just simply awesome!
