Alassandra and David's wedding was a stunning celebration of love, family, and beautiful details. The couple chose bright, bold floral accents that set the tone for the day, beginning with their invitation suite.
Alassandra got ready alongside her sweet mama and had a tender moment reading her heartfelt promises to David while her mother helped her prepare.
A special and deeply emotional first look with her father followed as he teared up seeing his daughter in her stunning dress.
Meanwhile, David and his groomsmen enjoyed some pre-ceremony bonding, sipping on local Imperial Ultra beers, writing vows, and getting ready.
David opted for a white low button-up, brown loafers, and a sand-beige suit to compliment Alessandra's pleated off shoulder dress. Their first look followed in the courtyard and Alessandra's bouquet was on display with a beautiful peace lilies, monsteras, and roses, matching her hair piece and David's boutonniere.
The Ceremony was held at Panga's oceanfront event space. Details included a rose-infused floral arch with pinecone gingers, light wooden chairs, a welcome sign, and straw fans in each guest's seat.
