Escape to the stunning destination wedding of Emily + Rex for their boho beach wedding in Langosta! Emily + Rex's love for Costa Rica was evident from the beginning. During a site visit exactly one year before their wedding, they captured their engagement photos, setting the tone for the romantic journey to come. To kick off the wedding festivities, we planned a special excursion—a catamaran cruise—for all the guests to soak up the sun and enjoy the tropical paradise.
The morning of the wedding was filled with excitement as guests were invited to take surf lessons, adding a touch of adventure to the day. We collaborated with the couple to create delightful welcome bags for their loved ones, equipped with essentials for a memorable wedding weekend, including thoughtful items like Advil, breath mints, Emergen-C, makeup wipes, Costa Rica stickers, and after-tan lotion.
Personal touches were at the heart of Emily + Rex's celebration. The groom showcased his funky style with boldly tropical patterned shoes, adding a playful element to their boho aesthetic.
The beach at the edge of Sueno del Mar provided a breathtaking backdrop for the ceremony. A circular arbor adorned with florals and foliage created a romantic focal point, with flowers climbing up from the bottom to create a stunning visual display. Vintage rugs lined the aisle, leading guests to wood benches for seating. A wooden welcome sign set the tone for the festivities, signaling that "The Party Starts Now"!

During the cocktail hour, guests enjoyed the beach and poolside ambiance, sipping refreshing drinks in the coastal breeze. Dinner was tucked under the trees at Sueno, with string lights, macramé, and rattan lanterns casting a warm glow. The reception space exuded an earthy and dusty charm, with green, pink, burnt orange, and burgundy tones. Feathery dried elements and flowers added a bohemian touch, with subtle hints of sagey green and equal parts floral colors.
At the reception, Emily + Rex showcased their love for their adorable pups with signature drinks named after their furry companions. The celebration continued with a live DJ and a cigar roller station, adding a touch of luxury to the evening.
