Hola Novias Palladium, Congrats on your upcoming wedding!!! We've had the privilege of telling numerous gorgeous wedding stories at the Grand Palladium Complex. Our latest one took place a few months ago.... Noriko + Shawn from BC, Canada said yes to a Gazebo Ceremony + Reception at the Portofino Restaurant. Check out these images: We loved the parasols and reception venue as it is nice and intimate, great for small groups!!! Plus, Vanessa, the Wedding Coordinator, was very accommodating. Let me know if you have any questions. Happy Planning

Yes, very true

Our latest sneak peek images from Le Blanc.... We just shot 2 weddings last night there, 2 in one night.... Here is one from a few weeks ago, first glance in the staircase... a little rain outside

Ok... One of my favorite dresses so far this year, from Island Importer.. Our Facebook Gallery HERE. The 100% silk , Beaded Corset Dress from Island Importer. By the way, this was an Adam + Eve session, Adrienne had no problem taking this dress off.... so the content is pretty suggestive and the intention of our Sexy Adam and Eve Trash the Dress's. Pretty magical content...hope you like. Hope you like... PS. If you want to see more Adam & Eve Trash the dress, check this one out: Adam & Eve Trash the Dress 2

I love this one... just the scale of this room is unbelievable... The Mayans considered the Ceiba Tree (pictured centered) as a holy tree and often buried their dead ones at the roots of these trees so they could climb to the heavens faster...lots of amazing beauty designed into this chapel..

One of my new "favorite images of the week" all in support of doing a del Sol Mermaid Trash the Dress... My thoughts are that now, more than ever, we are so excited that we can play with the art form that is bride + underwater... My imagination goes crazy and literally these are some of the most fun images to make. Taking applications. Any diver brides want to play with us?

Thank you Evan + Kari! We loved your colors and especially the SHOES.... SO Awesome to see the mix and mash of colors + converse for the guys... Thanks for your kind words amigos! And I LOVE that it rained a little and everybody took it with BIG smiles and actually united the group even more... amazing details! Saludos y te mando un abrazo fuerte! Big hugs!

Thank you for the kind words Carla's wedding was so beautiful and even more meaningful that she took the time to write such an amazing series of blogs with detailed photo explanations of the progression of he entire wedding experience. Its a one of a kind super unique and selfless act because of how much helps other brides as they visualize their big day... She was an amazing bride to photograph! Here is her the blog of her wedding if anyone is interested.

Awe.... thats so touching thank you for the kind words and support of our creative vision AND for mentioning that you follow our FB FAN page and that it inspires you... thanks for that!

Hola Jessi... Interesting how fast people can start hating on something even though they don't fully understand it and in the end, the bride will do what they want to do anyway. We don't look at this as destructive nor do we think its a "waste"... thanks for the support of the movement, and no problem about your dress, its often common. What we see is that most of our clients end up with a second gown (not necessarily for a wedding occasion)... they are so many options out there. Keep your mind open if your in love with the concept... For example, Susan purchased a 2nd hand wedding dress for $75. It wasn't actually the right size and some of the underwater was challenging...at one point, she was just over it and wanted to SWIM out of the dress (she was covered with nude colored undies). The dress then started to float upright and gave us the chance to create an EPIC photo, just being at the right place at the right time....

Kelly, you are super hot amiga... lets admit that. Brides, does anybody support me to say Kelly is a Hottie? Thank you for taking time to do reviews and for all your sharing, we know your efforts will help others plan their own events Kelly... saludos chica! Here is one of my favs... and your eyes here... wow

We just wanted to say THANK YOU again Eric & Chelsea! It was such an honor to shoot your wedding then to see you AGAIN for the TTD more than a year after! Awesome shoot, beautiful accessories amiga! saludos y besos

Here are a couple of photos to inspire you: If you want to see more, click on this link: Lauren + Preston | Havana Cuba | Photos by del Sol Photography We shoot this couple last july. Learned that Havana is full of color , history and culture... service, not too much.. we stayed at a family's home , so I can't really suggest a resort. Do you have your heart set on Havana?? There are amazing colonial old cities in the americas, probably better service oriented, wedding oriented, that might make your life and planning easier... Anyway... just wanted to show you this pics to give you a vision of Havana

Al Cielo wedding ceremony, followed by Grand Palladium Reception, it turned out to be a perfect combo Wedding ceremony at Al Cielo, amazing beach Those bridesmaids parasols were perfect !! Orange color in the groom attire. Beautiful moment when the rings are going on And orange rose petals for the exit! everything matched! After photos and cocktails it was time to head for the reception back at Grand Palladium Resort Guests found this cute box at their table place. Thanks Carla for including me, that was super sweet of you Inside the box was this cute perfect present, hand painted, with sand from the ocean, and just before christmas If you want to see more of this pretty destination wedding , check out the slideshow Al Cielo wedding ceremony Palladium reception Carla + Chris
