I often ask myself what my wedding would be like if I had a total do-over. And while I haven’t quite worked through all the details, I know it’d look a lot like this. Somewhere totally secluded and completely romantic. With only our nearest and dearest to bear witness. Throw in the ultra modern W Retreat & Spa plus the natural beauty of Vieques Island, Puerto Rico, and you’ve got my own little slice of wedding heaven. Believe me when I say this beauty from Lexia Frank is one perfect wedding you don’t want to miss.
From Lexia Frank Photography…Dana and Timo- two transplant Germans living in New York- planned their beautiful destination wedding on the tiny island of Vieques, off the coast of Puerto Rico. The only resort on the island- The W Hotel- was a perfect location because it blended the soft pastel colors of the island with bright modern pops of color. The interior of the ultra modern hotel was designed by Patricia Urquiola, and was the perfect backdrop for the wedding. Dana and Timo wed on the cliff overlooking the turquoise waters, and had their intimate reception down on the private beach itself, with everyone barefoot and dipping their toes in the water while they ate. After dinner they celebrated with a live guitarist, a bonefire (with soft blankets and pillows to cuddle with), sparklers and a flying paper lanterns to end the night!
