One of the best things about Antigua Guatemala is that you don’t have to waste time walking around or looking for good backgrounds because every inch of this city has a unique backdrop. From ancient ruins to volcano views, or super colorful and textured walls. 🇬🇹
Most of the time, photographers will conduct your photo session within one or two blocks 📸

Opened in 1717, a few months later it suffered the first earthquake, and in the earthquake of 1773, the monastery and church of La Recolección were abandoned, and now we see the ruins of what was once the temple and other elements of the monastery.
Ideal for a photo shoot due to its large ancient vestiges. It’s truly surprising to be taking photos amidst the ruins, imagining how majestic this beautiful temple once was ;).
It has a large garden with the temple ruins in the background, making it a unique setting for a beautiful ceremony or reception.

Having a ceremony rehearsal not only enhances the fluidity and coordination for the wedding day but also provides a fantastic opportunity for your wedding photographer, videographer, or content creator to capture precious moments with your family and it’s a great memento to also have a photo session at the venue. Personally, I adore before-and-after photos and videos; there’s something captivating about seeing the couple in the same location in casual outfits and then transforming into their dressed-up elegance.
Many times, after the rehearsal, you take a walk to your welcome dinner with all your guests and enjoy the beauty of Antigua’s views.💫

As many couples prefer to wait until the bride is walking down the aisle before they see each other, they choose to take some pictures and share a last-minute moment just holding hands. Sometimes, they even read their vows like this, and trust me, it ends up being a very emotional and touching moment

Alright, let's talk about chicken buses! These are the coolest way to transport your guests in Antigua!
Picture this: brightly colored buses that used to be old school buses in the US, but now they've got a serious makeover. They're all decked out with vibrant paint, shiny chrome accessories, and awesome decorations. Seriously, they're eye-catching and full of life!
Now, here's where things get even more exciting. Chicken buses aren't just a way to get from point A to point B; they're a total immersion in the local culture and vibe. The moment your guests step on board, they'll be greeted by a lively atmosphere and a look that's unlike anything else. It's an experience they won't forget, trust me!

01/06/2023

Think about the lighting when planning your wedding day schedule.
Outdoor ceremonies need to take this into consideration as it can make a huge difference in the time of the day.
Midday ceremonies may have extremely harsh lighting due to the sun, which means you and your guests will not only suffer from the heat but also have intense shadows on your faces, which will be captured in photos and videos.
If the ceremony is scheduled too late, the sun may change or even set, making it feel odd to turn on lights in the middle of the ceremony.
My favorites? Ceremonies at 3 or 4 PM, so you can have your photoshoot and cocktail during the golden hour.
Alternatively, if you want to do something different, consider morning ceremonies!

When you know, you know 💃🏽 And Kristen knew what she was doing when posing for her wedding photoshoot.
Here are some pieces of advice if you are not used to taking photos and may feel uncomfortable or unsure of how to pose:
When you meet your photographer, ask them if they are skilled in directing couples and let them know that you will need extra guidance.
Research poses and practice them. This is a must. Scroll through Pinterest for references and choose the ones that make you feel most like yourself. You can also share these photos with the video and photo team so they can replicate them.
Consider booking a pre-wedding photoshoot. This will help you become better acquainted with the photographers, and they will gain a better understanding of your preferences and how to assist you.
What I strongly recommend is this: I understand that on the day of the wedding, you'll want to spend time with your guests at the cocktail hour. However, believe me, in a month and for years to come, you will cherish having these amazing photos to revisit again and again. So, allocate at least 30-45 minutes for the photographer and videographer to work their magic.

Your wedding day is a celebration of the love and commitment between two people. Saying vows to each other is not only a beautiful tradition, but it's also a powerful reminder of the promises you're making to one another. It's a chance to publicly declare your love and devotion, and to set the foundation for a lifetime of love and happiness. Whether you choose to recite traditional vows or write your own, the act of saying your promises aloud is a meaningful and unforgettable moment that will stay with you forever.

Exchanging vows is an exceptionally genuine, heartfelt, and sincere moment in a wedding. However, expressing them publicly in front of a large audience can be intimidating for some individuals. If you're uncertain about when to read your vows, here are some suggestions tailored to suit the personalities of different types of couples.
My greatest admiration goes to the photographers who manage to capture these moments in a silent way so as not to intimidate the couple and immortalize this moment for them forever.
Here is the list of the professionals that took the pictures of this carrousel.

When does the party start?
For the bride and groom to be, it starts the moment you get engaged! But for the rest of your guests from the moment they receive the “save the date” notice and wedding invitations.
When selecting invitations or save the date settings; couples like to include a small preview of what the style and look of their wedding will be. Photographers have the important task of capturing all these details. For example an old world meets new world decor with a touch of nature, like these pictures.

04/05/2023

Should the photographers take pictures of details or just of people? That’s a great question and of course the answer is personal and anyone can choose what they prefer, but let me give you my advice:

Weddings are magical! It's a celebration of love between two people, it’s a day full of sentiment and special feelings you will want to remember: the rings, ceremonies, special dances, and speeches of dear relatives and friends.

The photos and video shoots, should tell the story of what happened that day. Believe me, even though you try your best to stay focused that day, you will feel as if time flew, and will be left thinking everything happened so fast.

So, when you receive your video or photos, and they have storytelling between them, you relive that day. Even the smallest details will contribute to make that movie complete again.

The architecture of the venue, textures of the walls, the messy table of your getting ready room, the perfume you wore that day, the rings, even vendors photos, flower details, how the sky was that day, or the surroundings are part of what you lived on your special wedding day.

So, in my opinion, wedding photos are more than just cute picture of the couple. And that’s why it’s a great challenge for photographers to really nail it, cause they need to be good at portraits, product, architecture, documentary and many more photography styles.
If you care about all the things I mention, I suggest you invest in a very professional team to take care of immortalizing your wedding story .

This is what I mean when i say some venues doesn't need much decor and that you should work with your decor just to enhance the natural beauty of it.

This places looks like taken out of a movie, and in Guatemala we have many places where nature is the main character. So, this could be a great option if you want to have a wedding (or any secondary event) in a different place than a ruin.

Have you ever considered getting married in Flores, Peten, or Lake Atitlán for example? If you are an adventurous couple, you will love this site.

Venues are everything! Look at this beautiful space where Juan Pablo & Megan did their first look! Isn’t it like a fairytale?

The venue you choose for your wedding is going to set a lot of things, that's why you really need to think about some details before choosing it.

Here is a short list of thing to consider:

- Limit the amount of guests you can fit in (a maximum and a minimum cause if the space is too big, having 50 guests will make your party look empty)

-Does it have a space for plan b if it rains? Can we put a tent inside it? Guatemala has several months of rainy season (May - October), and it can also rain sporadically during the non rainy season (November - April), so you may want to have a plan B if this happens.

-Decor: some venues are so beautiful by themselves that don't need much decor, but some other may need more coverage so that will make your budget grow.

-Distances, if you're having a destination wedding I really suggest choosing a venue close to where most of your guest will be staying. This will make everything easier for everyone.

-Hours of usability: some venues have really strict schedules of the times that you can start the montage and where to finish the party. So if you want many hours of dancing or a wedding decor that takes more than some hours to be built, then you will have to choose some other one.

If you are planning a wedding in Guatemala and feel a little overwhelmed, do not hesitate to contact me, i will work beside you so that you enjoy every part of the process.

It really comes down to detail. From the smallest flower, to the huge arrangements, to the natural environment, to every guest that attended.

Couples put a lot of effort planning and making their wedding, so it is very important that the wedding planner schedules everything before hand so the photo and video shoot teams take the time to capture all those amazing details.

Also, for all the Pinterest brides, having cool photos as this one will make you love you photographer even more.

Vendors in action and some wedding details ✨

Swipe through the photos and see a little bit of what does it really look like behind the scene.

In the wedding day many things are happening simultaneously, while the decor team is finishing last minutes details of the ceremony, the photographer is taking portraits, the wedding planner is putting every groomsmen their boutonniere, the kitchen is refrigerating alcohol and cooking dinner, special effects is tasting lights, the videographer is checking that sound is recording, the band is positioning their instruments and so much more!

This wedding had something amazing and was that the ceremony and reception was at the same hotel, so we could go from one place to another within seconds, and that helps a lot with the event production !

I’m obsessed with this decor that Bea from did. Our ruins are extremely gorgeous but they are all beige so adding some pop ups of color really potentiates the beauty of it.

Something we will see a lot in this 2023 wedding season is a mix of flowers, fruits, textures, asymmetry and more descontraturated arrangements!

For this cocktail the couple chose charcuterie boards with variety of cheeses, jams, nuts, and so much more with 3 stations of tacos, crepes and siders.

And if you swipe through the carousel you can find Mishka from immortalizing the incredible night.

Most destination weddings choose the ruins for their venue, but Sofía and Garrett chose Santa Clara Ruins for their Rehearsal Dinner/ Welcome Cocktail and it was such a great decision!

This place has a special and unique vibe, and I love seeing every guest reaction when they enter for the first time.
Every time someone sees this huge old convent with the arcs on the ceiling they are so surprised and amazed that they instantly start taking photos of it.

Soon you´ll be able to see more details about this beautiful event!

Giselle & Victor are from Cuba and chose Antigua Guatemala to do their wedding !

That’s one of the nicest things of our job, getting to know people and cultures from many parts of the world! And being Guatemalan, makes me very proud of my country every time a couple chooses it to have their love celebration!

Fun fact: Giselle choose Antigua first, and for some time Victor thought they were getting married in Antigua & Barbuda 😂
