Alira & Nicolas: true love is their destiny

Alira & Nicolas were our last couple to get married on 2011. They chose the amazing Yazmin de la Mora to cater their event and their wedding was coordinated by Weddings Playa Mexico.

On a very fresh december the 17th saturday, these two love birds from Puebla, Mexico, gathered all their friends and family in a true celebration of love at Capilla de Santa Maria del Secreto.

The love story behind this couple of Doctors is very peculiar. They know each other since high school but at those times they where not even friends. They both studied to become Doctors but Nico´s passion for business made him take some decisions away from his original profession and decided to pursue a dream with his brother and had a Restaurant. Globalization didn't help the brothers and they had to close their business, this is how Nicolas entered Medical school again and ran into Alira at the Hall of the University.

It only took a few words and then they where dating. The time went by they became Doctors, they went to Spain and went they came back to Mexico they had a great opportunity to work in Playa del carmen.

This is how our couple ended up on this part of the country and this is why they choose Riviera maya to be the witness of their union.

at our very famous WISHING TREE at the venue.

This wedding had going on several details such as their wedding invitations designed by Alira, which included

"airplane tickets" for their guests coming from other cities.

The Menu was excellent they started with a fish ceviche, then a great mushroom soup and finally an amazing fish filet with a side dish of steamed vegetables and

mash potatoes with a hint of curry. And they had a dessert and fruit bar to indulge everyones sweet tooth.

Party kept on going at the amazing VENUE of Secret Jewel Celebrations where not even the rain could ruin their celebration.

We thank Alira and Nicolas for letting us be part of their love story and also for being so kind and loving.

Alira told me she was so inspired by my BLOG that was the reason she made one for their wedding http://aliraynikolas.blogspot.com/p/nuestra-boda.html

I am very honored and very thnak full, I am so happy we closed this years weddings with a cherry on TOP.

finding common ground

A wedding is a ONCE in a lifetime event that units people.

It brings together families, kind of like thanksgiving or christmas ... your wedding day is the celebration of a LOVE so powerful it creates a new family.

Oh, YEs family, we can't imagine our life without them, but what can you DO when you just want to relax and enjoy, and oh well sometimes just thinking about getting everyone together is a very stressful job?

I can only say, people that LOVE you will make everything that is in their hands so you can have the most wonderful day in your lives. You and your groom have nothing to worry about.

Find some common ground where you can make everyone feel like they are participating and really have it all your way.

The most amazing thing about a family reunion is all the fun we have when everyone is celebrating, just remember how much fun your holidays are and you will see that there is nothing to worry about, you know them better than anybody ... you have known them your whole life.

Just a little thought about family because

HOLIDAY SEASON IS VERY NEAR AND

WE JUST GOT OUR CHRISTMAS TREE ...

... feel lucky because you have your love ones celebrating with you! and what ever you can't handle leave it to your team, after all your girls, bridesmaids and wedding planner have all a purpose in common at your wedding:

your happiness!!!
