AMANDA & MARKUS

NEW YEAR’S EVE DESTINATION WEDDING @  HACIENDA SAC CHICH, MERIDA, MEXICO

Big, fat, long post ALERT because I just wasn’t capable of narrowing it down for one of my favorite weddings of all time.. and why would I? If every single moment and details was crafted and enjoyed at its fullest! I can’t think of a single thing that didn’t happen in this wedding. Amanda, Markus and their people are WILD, so get ready for what you’re about to see. This is possibly one of the longest days I remember in my life as a photographer but at the same time one of the shortest as I enjoyed every second and it went so fast. Their wedding included master pool diving tricks, hot dog grilling, teddy bear men shoes, greenery, greenery and more greenery, exquisite golden hour portraits, Mexican delicious food, drunk people in burning man costumes hitting a piñata and the photographer (yeap! I’m sure I almost died there) at the same time, sky lanterns released as a symbol to remember important people who are no longer with us, the loudest, most romantic New Year countdown EVER and sky exploding with colorful fireworks.. also one of the most heartfelt weddings vows I’ve ever heard. I still cry when I watch the slideshow. I love that even though they made the biggest party, no one every forgot that it was all about Amanda and Markus’ love and every detail of this wedding honored that. Many of my photographer friends said I’m crazy for booking a wedding in a holiday, but all I can say is I don’t regret for a second spending it here, like this, doing what I love the most with beautiful people.

Thank you Amanda & Markus for making us part of your family this day. I’m almost sure I’ll never be invited to a better New Year’s Eve party for the rest of my life.

Enough talking, please enjoy!
