tying the knot on a beach in mexico
kristopher's dream wedding:
marrying ariana
We are thrilled to invite you to our intimate wedding celebration! This special weekend will be a small gathering with immediate family and a few close friends, totaling no more than 30 guests. Our ceremony and reception will be relaxed and casual, reflecting our laid-back style.
The venue we’ve chosen is a beautiful, gated mango farm that doubles as a dog sanctuary, located just 700 yards from the beach and close to downtown Todos Santos. There’s a pool, plenty of space to explore, and a fire pit for nightly bonfires. The venue also offers comfortable lodging, and we’ve arranged for our closest family members to stay on the property with us.
We understand that some of our extended family might be disappointed with our decision to keep the wedding small. Please know that this was a difficult choice for us, made to ensure a more personal and manageable celebration. We deeply value our relationships with all of our family members and hope to celebrate with everyone in other ways.
We can’t wait to celebrate with you in this wonderful setting and create unforgettable memories together.
